Hey everyone, just wanted to update you all: most importantly, we’re safe after the fire at our house.

Unfortunately, my space and equipment has been damaged, which means I’ll have to temporarily pause my services.

We’re incredibly grateful for the outpouring of support from all of you, to everyone that has reached out or has offered to help us, thank you❤️

Here is an idea for your warm up next leg day!
-
1. Any cardio machine. I like to use my wind bike to get the blood pumping. I’ll do a light 5 - 10 mins on it.

2. 90-90 hip drops. If you sit all day you’ll love this one, do it until you feel your hips open up. Anywhere from 20-30 reps will do the trick for me.

3. 90-90 hip shift. Same thing, go for 20-30 total reps. Think of pushing your knee into the ground as you bring your torso back up. I went for a run the day prior and my legs were tight so I used my hands to stay as upright as possible. Eventually try and bring your hands off the ground.

4. Worlds Greatest Stretch. Go in a deep lunge position, or keep your knee on the ground. Rotate your upper body by reaching up for the sky and trying to bring your elbow to the ground. 10-20 reps on each side.

5. Isometric Hip Pry. In the same positon as the worlds greatest stretch, push your knee out with your hand and resist with your legs. Do this pushing your knee in and out, you’ll feel a good activation in your hips (glute and adductor) Hold it for 5 - 10 seconds.

6 & 7. Finally I complete my warm up with some hip CARS. I’ll do 2-3 sets for 3-5 reps going clock wise and counterclockwise.

I get asked a lot if I started online training cause of Covid, and I get it, in the last year online training has become a popular service among personal trainers.

But the truth is, I started offering my online services in 2015, and throughout those 6 year I had time to refine my online services to offer my clients the best online training experience.

If you’re looking for a program to follow, to get stronger, to build better habits, to improve your mobility and too increase your energy level, SBS online might be the solution for you!

Please feel free to message me if you have any questions about my online services or have any health and fitness related questions, I would be happy to answer you!

Also, if you are my current client, a previous client of mine, or someone that I help in the gym please share your experience with me in the comment section I would love to hear your feedback!

Cool fact about deadlifts: It’s the exercise that activates the most muscles simultaneously. That is why it’s the king of all exercises 👑
-
The deadlift can sometimes be scary, especially if you have a history of back pain.
Chances are if you do deadlifts correctly, it will help you build a strong back and proper hinging mechanics and overcome that back pain🤯
-
❗️If you’re dealing with acute back pain, please refer to your Chiro or therapist before trying these.
❗️Working with a knowledgeable trainer will help you understand the movements and other cues to ensure that you are moving safely.
-
Slowly progressing to pulling from the floor can help you overcome that fear.
-
Remember, when building a strong body you are not competing with anybody else but yourself, so take your time with the progressions.
-
My 5 go-to progressions:
▪️Plate Hinge
▪️DB Deadlifts
▪️High Block Pulls
▪️Low Block Pulls
▪️Floor Pulls

Pressing should be a staple in everybody’s training program, but a barbell bench isn’t meant for everyone.
-
Unfortunately, some of us deal with shoulder pain, either from a past injury or dealing with daily discomfort.
-
Although there are other exercises and treatment that we can do to improve shoulder pain, it is better to work one on one with a certified trainer or therapist rather than trying to find a solution through google.
-
What you can do though, is play around with different variations that don’t cause pain to the shoulder.
-
My 5 go-to progression:
▪️Barbell Push-Ups
▪️Ring Push-Ups
▪️DB Neutral Grip Floor Press
▪️Barbell Floor Press
▪️Barbell Bench Press

Give it a try and save this for later!

When starting to squat, going directly under the bar can sometimes be scary. Slowly progressing with variations can be a great solution to overcome that.
-
Here are some variations that I use with my clients to help them improve their motor pattern, and build more confidence with the movement, which will have a big carry over when going under the barbell.
-
My 5 go-to progression:
▪️Box Bodyweight Squat
▪️Bodyweight Squats
▪️Goblet Squats
▪️Barbell Box Squats
▪️Barbell Squats
