ABS: Why and how to sculpt them part 1 The abdomen, in synergy with other muscles, has an activity of "anti-function": its task is in fact to oppose certain movements in order to drastically reduce the risk of accidents. Do you want an important abdominal wall? Make 3 sets of 10 "front plank" breaths Here's how to do it:
1) Position yourself with your knees in line with your hips and forearms resting on the ground (with elbows in line with your shoulders)
2) Stretch your left leg (like "A" in the picture) and the right leg
3) Assume the front plank position (B) and simultaneously contract seating and abdomen perform 10 breaths Add this exercise to your warm up and get ready to have a steel abdomen

The Great Formation Buffalo The mistake everyone makes is: "I have already done a course, I have not applied everything yet ... now I wait a bit to do the things I have pending, then we see ..." But it does NOT work that way. Training works by being constantly exposed to new stimuli, new concepts and new strategies, ALSO and especially if you have not yet had time to apply everything. There are things I have on the agenda for 3 years and they are still not ready. Still, if I hadn't done my last personal training sessions a few weeks ago with one of my teachers, I'd be going round and round in many other key areas. Training is not a problem of "accumulating new concepts" and therefore "I have already taken a course now I look for ...", but the opposite. Training is, as Bruce Lee put it, "Inserting new correct concepts while constantly eliminating superfluous and wrong ones". You must constantly remain "in the flow". Not because you need new concepts, maybe, but just because you have to avoid making mistakes with the concepts you already have (some correct, some wrong). Not forming you will carry you away from success. The target of your customers will become less motivating. The earnings will be those necessary to "arrange". You will be the last choice of a true potential customer and all this will force you to find a second job to be able to pay your rent if you live alone, but if you have a family you will have to spend other hours away from home to rarely see your children . What do you want to do?
What do you want to get? 1. Great Success?
2. A little better than before?
3. Nothing, I get smashing and rosic? You will have that points 2 and 3 are NOT options, we aim at point # 1 which is why, together with my Staff, I created AFI ACADEMY It is a training school with courses we have put up to give you all the experience, methods and techniques used in 20 years of career.

Success Strategies in the Training Field The most frequent question to my training courses? - "Prof, in your opinion, after I have studied everything, will I be able to start my professional adventure in this world?" My answer? - You can start very well being an instructor or PT without having done any course with me.
7/10 of trainers who enter the world of sport do it by improvising their minimum experience in extreme competence. Most Italian technicians have switched to the "dark side" because of cheap courses that "certify" Personal Trainer or "Specialist of this and that" very easily and without important contents, of value. True training is not a course. True training does not have a beginning or an end. True training is not a "course" but a "path" and we at AFI embody it to perfection. If you have not yet reached this level of awareness, you need not worry: the fault is not yours! Today, moreover, the social media have amplified the junk phenomenon even more. The truth is one: successful trainers are those who DO what I do, not those who simply take a course with me. AND WHAT I DO IS TO FORM ME CONSTANTLY! The training is neither a "prize" nor a "whim"

The 2 Months That Will Change Your Career. Movement optimization is a keynote to performance, especially when it comes to professional athletes. Optimizing means "making the most efficient use of a situation, an opportunity or a resource". Do you want to be more powerful? Then improve your movement. Such as? Moving and not with long and forced rests! Giuseppe is a professional footballer who has stopped for 8 months due to a 5th metatarsal fracture. After a careful analysis we understood how to solve the articular blocks, the affected patterns and pains starting from a neural reprogramming (like a Multipauses to the Lumberjack Squat). But how, does he have blocked movements and you propose to him to move with overloads?
Yes! If the training gave you awareness of how your body is affected, you have only one way to improve this situation: Get away from your current state, revisit the previous less developed state and start working on that. In other words, regress! In 2 months we will see Giuseppe on the field in a stratospheric form, stay updated! trainingItalian

The Best Program For You!

Here are 3 things you absolutely need to know:

1. The muscle moves just like a rubber band and has properties very similar to a spring: it extends to a certain extent efficiently, retains the energy accumulated during training, shortens and returns an energy higher than it would have if had not previously been lengthened.

2. The ability of a muscle to absorb strength is essential for the subsequent production of strength.

3. Resisting a load without allowing it to crush us or trying to move a heavier load than what we normally manage to move means applying muscle strength by recruiting the most suitable fibers for intense efforts in the shortest possible time.

Muscle contractions are divided into 3 large groups:

1) Concentric ➡ the muscle produces strength by shortening
2) Eccentric ➡ the muscle produces strength by stretching
3) Isometric muscolo the muscle produces strength without changing its length

What contractions do you use more in your program?

Which of these contractions do you pay the most attention to when you train?

The last stretching exercise that will reduce your low back pain
After the first 3 stretching exercises for your hips (Psoas stretch, backside, single adductor rock) it is also necessary to stretch the external rotary muscles of the hips.

Last exercise but not least! On the contrary .. The external rotators are the muscles of the hips with greater densifications .. Furthermore, if you think that 75% of the world population has difficulty in activating these you understand how the problem, almost certainly, concerns you too.

There are some exercises that allow you to work on the implementation of the extra rotators that we will be able to know in the next posts .. Now we will focus on the external rotators stretching with the last exercise: the pigeon.
Now I'll explain how to do it…

1) quadrupedal position
2) put your left ankle and back of the opposite knee ( right ) in contact
3) push with your left knee on the mat
4) exhale and move your hips towards the back wall

You will immediately feel a pleasant tension in the external area of the buttock, this means that the stretching is taking effect.

All you have to do is say "BYE BYE" to your back pain.

Pigeon, nothing like before!

How often do you change your training schedule but above all have a training schedule ?
I have been around a lot and every time I’m out of my city I always look for a gym where I can train and 60% of the time I find clients that go around the hall without a specific schedule.
"Hey, what should I do now?" Is the question that is asked every day, every hour, every minute! Varying is important, of course, but there must always be an end.

Imagine having to go to the shopping center without detailed directions, you will surely arrive but it will take you twice as long (if all goes well) .
Programming is the road that can lead you to the realization of your goal.
In our gyms all the clients have a programming because it is essential to go from point A to point B, to get to know their client and be able to help him better.
Exercise often progresses without having assessed whether the subject is ready for this, here is a sequence of progressions for a push that can help you and light you.
Are you a client who has been training for 2 months and never had a training schedule?
Ask it now!
Are you a trainer who trains without a schedule?
Maybe it's time to make your work even more efficient.

Program to win with your athlete.

The detail that makes the difference.

After watching the previous videos about breathing and rolling, 2 stretching exercises, let's take a step and go to the next level of your workout.

Psoas stretch and backside is not all the stretching you need.

There are 2 more specific exercises for your mobility I want to teach you.
You must know that the hips are the most important words of your body. (if you think that these exercises unite the upper part of your body and the lower part you already agree absolutely).

It must be said that these articulations are the most important but also the most constrained, think that 75% of the population does not have a good mobility of the hips with the consequent presence of pain in the lower back or knees.
That is why, after having programmed your breathing and eliminated the band densifications by rolling, it is necessary to mobilize the hips through the "4 way hip"

The 4 exercises that make up this are: psoas stretch, backside, single adductor rock and pigeon.

Today we will talk about the single rock adductor: thanks to 5 breaths per side you will be able to perfectly stretch the inner portion of the thigh making your hips even more mobile, here are the detailed coaching:

1) Start from the quadrupedal position (hands under the shoulders, knees under the hips, flexed feet, spinal neutrality)
2) open your right leg by stretching it out completely and put the sole of your foot in contact with the ground, your foot must look forward
3) extra-rotate the opposite foot
4) maintaining spinal neutrality, exhale and bring hips towards the back wall.
5) repeat for 5 breaths and change side.

Add this exercise to the sequence I have already given you (breathing, myofascial release, psoas stretch, back side) and you will notice how your lower back and knee pain will diminish day after day.

Training and resiliency, this is the real key!
