Stop turning your cable lat pullover into a tricep exercise. 💪

Your lats aren't built to move straight up and down — they're designed to pull on an ARC. Most people miss this and wonder why their back isn't growing.

Here's how to actually feel it:

🔹 Start with a straight bar (one point of pull = easier to learn)
🔹 Attach high, grab just outside shoulder width
🔹 Push those hips back for max stretch
🔹 Pull down on an arc, not a straight line, squeeze the lat, not the tricep
🔹 Once that's dialed in, switch to the rope for extra range and an even bigger squeeze behind your body

Quality reps > heavy reps. Get the squeeze, not just the weight down.

Meal prep doesn’t have to be complicated. I build my bowls with a protein, carb, veggies + a fat source so they’re balanced, filling, and easy to customize.

Recipe — 1 serving:
🥩 130g ground elk - or any protein
🍠 3 oz baked Japanese sweet potato - or any whole food carb source
🥬 2 cups baby spinach
🍅 ½ medium tomato
🥑 48g avocado
🥣 81g 2% cottage cheese - or Greek yogurt
🍯 10g honey
🌶️ Dijon mustard

550 CAL | 50g protein | 50g carbs | 25g fat

Swap the protein, carb or veggies for whatever you have on hand — the formula stays the same. Save this for your next meal prep!

The Arsenal Vertical Row might be one of my favourite machines for building a thicker back.

Stable setup, great range of motion, and an easy movement to progressively overload.

Control the stretch. Drive your elbows back. Pull with intent. 💪

I used to follow random workouts from magazines. No internet, no plan, just guessing.

I Wondered why my results were so slow. Turns out random doesn't work. A PLAN does.

The second I started tracking my exercises, my weights, my reps every single week... that's when everything changed.

Progressive overload works. It's the guaranteed way to get results… if you actually track it and build on it week after week.

You don't need to guess anymore. We've already built the plan.

DM us and we'll get you set up. 💪

Stop training your core with crunches 🛑

If your goal is to build a stronger, more developed core, doing endless bodyweight crunches just to “feel the burn” is wasting your time.

Your abs adapt to training just like every other muscle they need progressive overload.

Instead of chasing fatigue, use exercises you can progressively load and train your core through its different functions:

• Flexion
• Rotation
• Anti-extension
• Anti-rotation
• Anti-lateral flexion

Train your core with intention, not just exhaustion.

If you’re sick of doing the same old core workouts, comment “CORE” and I’ll send you a free core workout! 💪

Simple meals like this are how my clients stay lean!

Simple, high protein, delicious.

Potatoes + carrots on the grill. Burger patty, salt & pepper. That's it. That's the meal.

You don't need a meal plan with 40 ingredients. You need 3-4 things you can cook well, on repeat, that keep you full and moving toward your goals.

Great leg machine? Absolutely.
