When you’re trying to be good in something or achieving a goal or a certain skill. You have to embrace repetition.

Repetition can be boring but it will teach you patience & mastery.

Boring is good!

Taking their fitness to another level

Handstand can be scary at first but just like learning any other skill: slow & easy.

Patience, daily commitment & discipline are the soft skills you need when embarking on your handstand journey.

Practice daily! As small victories completed consistently over time will bring you to your goals safely.

“Kaya ko pala” i always hear from my students when they hit a new PB ( personal best )

The beauty of small wins gives you a boost of confidence.

As you get stronger you acquire an added sense of confidence. Confidence is one of the most vital components for success in both sports and life.

Just put in the work & always believe that you can!

Turkish get up is a complex, integrated movement that improves flexibility, joint mobility, and overall body strength.

Its a complicated movement and its hard to sell to some beginners.

Here’s a simple formula that i use:

-Cluster the 7 sequences into 3 phases. Drill each phases until movements are proficient.

-Avoid overwhelming your student with details

-Allow your student to feel the movement first then the details can come later.

After a few sets of unloaded get ups. I decided to load her with 4kgs.

Congrats on your first get up.
