What a year! 2022 has been a rollercoaster ride. I’m sure just like myself, many of you have put fitness on the backburner to take care of others.

Well, that stops now! It’s time to take back your health! Time to put some good old fashioned hard work in and get the beach body we all know we slacked on this winter!

For the second year in a row, I will be running an outdoor bootcamp. We had great success last year and are looking to grow our group and extend the challenge out to other like minded individuals. So without further ado, here are the meat and potatoes of what’s to come!


THE WORKOUTS:


Each workout will focus on building controlled movements, conditioned bodies, and strong minds.

This will be done through building a base of cardiovascular & muscular strength and conditioning. Using full body movements, built around our daily environment, each workout will include jumping, throwing, running, bodyweight training and hypertrophy circuits.

Now that may sound scary, but I strive to deliver workouts that are based on each individual, meaning each workout can deliver varying degrees of difficulty for each fitness level.

By combining these workout principles together, not only will you grow stronger and more mobile, but you will be able to experience a variety of workouts designed to keep you engaged and progressing week after week!


ADDITIONAL SUPPORT:


As a team member, you will be given access to a variety of additional tools to help you in your success. With an extensive database of meal plans, meal guides, nutrition help and food lists, your quest to know what to eat and when will finally come to a close!

Additionally, in case you have any questions or concerns, each member will be added to a exclusive page, giving you access to plenty of resources, and the ability to converse and support other members!

If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out to me, and I will be happy to get back to you in a timely manner!

Dedication.

For those on the path to a healthier lifestyle, dedication is at the core of everything. Without it, your path will wander. With it, you have a clear direction of where you are going.

However, this is not to say that dedicating yourself to a new lifestyle will directly result in dedication. It's a life skill that needs just as much cultivation as your efforts in the gym or kitchen, day in and day out.

There is no easy way to develop dedication to a healthier lifestyle, it comes with each step you take in the right direction. Getting a workout in when you're exhausted from dealing with work, choosing the stairs over the elevator, putting down that second helping of dinner. All of these take dedication to the goals you're hoping to aspire to accomplish.

Take it in stride when that dedication falters, don't punish yourself too harshly, we all make mistakes on our way to the top. Take a minute, regroup, and then take note of how that made you feel. I'll bet it probably felt good in that moment, but in the long run, you know you can do better.

Achieving a healthier lifestyle isn's something that happens overnight, in a week or even a year.

ITS A LIFE LONG COMMITMENT TO YOURSELF.

Read that again.

Dedicate yourself to a better you and the rest will fall into place.

Our last strength metric to cover is ISOMETRICS. These are exercises that are held in a stressful position for as long as you can. Planks, wall sits, bent arm hangs on a pull-up bar, these are all examples of isometric strength testing. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you’re unable to test your strength in the REPETITION, or ABSOLUTE method, this is your next best bet! Time yourself and see how long you can hold out. However, unlike the other methods this is also a game of mental toughness.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

This marks the end of the Tracking Progress Series. Check back in tomorrow for upcoming diet and workout tips!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Training for strength should absolutely, 100%, without question, be part of every individuals training. As we grow stronger through physical training, our bodies become more resilient. When weight training is done right, muscle tissue, ligaments, and tendons all become more adaptive resulting in increased stability and support in our joints.

Tracking this is done through ABSOLUTE strength. The most amount of weight you can lift with one attempt. Absolute strength testing is usually done on big compound exercises like squats, deadlifts, bench press and overhead press.

Be sure to warm up thoroughly, perform a few light warm up sets, and then progress towards achieving an all out effort on one single attempt.

Write this number down. Continue training for 3-4 more months. Then retest!

Just like tracking your own bodies changes, tracking your improvement (or decline) in certain exercises and difficulties can be a great way to see if your current routine is working!

Tracking strength is done in 3 ways! Today we will be covering the easiest method... RELATIVE BODYWEIGHT STRENGTH. By definition relative strength is, your strength compared to your size. Remember those kids in gym class that could do a 100 pushups but looked like they couldn’t open a jar... that’s them.

BODYWEIGHT exercises are the easiest form of tracking this type of strength. So give this progression test a try and see where you come in.

Begin with a warm up of 5-10 minutes to get everything loose. Then perform each exercise below for maximum repetitions in 1 minute:

1. Squats
2. Push Ups
3. Sit Ups

Cool down 1 minute in between each exercise. Upon completion, go outside and run 1 km or mile (dependent on your fitness level) as fast as you can.

These numbers now become your baseline. When you start a new routine and have been at it for 3 months or more, come back, give this workout a try and see if you can beat the old you!

Your WEIGHT does not determine your fitness level. Read that again...

For many starting on their fitness journey, the scale is where most start and ultimately end. Tracking progress solely through weight loss isn’t always the most efficient or healthy.

Weight loss is easiest as a by product of muscle building. If your weight is coming down that’s great! However, if your weight is coming down and your losing strength and muscle size, that’s a no no. In order to combat this, make sure you are consuming high levels of protein, 1 gram per pound of body weight should do it.

Follow this parameter, and you’ll find that as you continue to lose weight, not only will you be stronger, but your clothes will fit better and your weight loss will come from other sources... like FAT!!!

That’s the end of our METRICS coverage. Check back soon for our next segment!

Over the next few days, I will be discussing ways to measure progress when it comes to your physical health. Today we will be covering METRICS. 

Metrics are an important part to your physical development and progress, but shouldn’t be the only measurements. These are tools to give you empirical data on how you are moving along. First up, BODY FAT PERCENTAGE.

In my opinion, this is the most important metric for long term health and well being. Fat plays a vital role in various body systems, from your hormones, to your bone health, to your hair and teeth. However, when body fat gets out of hand and remains high for long periods of time, it wreaks havoc on your internal organs and circulatory system by blocking blood vessels and major arteries. Focusing on lowering your body fat will result in not only looking great but also improving long term health.
