The 5x5 is a great way to boost your compound lifts. Here’s how to set it up:

-weight for the 5x5 should be 70-80 percent of 1 rep max or a weight you can do for 8-10 reps.

-if you’ve never done a 5x5 even a little lighter isn’t a bad idea

-then just as the name suggests 5 sets of 5 reps

The 5x5 maximizes efficiency, improves neuromuscular efficiency, and promotes bone density.

Hope this helps, have a good day!

Having trouble building that top shelf for your b***y? The glute “kickback” can be a challenging movement to feel where you want it. Here are some tips to help:

-place the ball of your foot on the bar

-lock your leg as one solid piece the movement point should be your hip not your knee

-think about lifting your entire leg a solid limb so that the bottom of your foot points to the ceiling like you were holding a platter on the sole of your shoe

-squeeze at the top of the movement and control the weight back down

-remember the path of the movement is an arc not a straight line

Should you be doing standing calf raises or seated? The answer? Both. Standing calf raises more targets the gastrocnemius(top portion of calf), while the seated calf raise focuses more on the soleus(thicker portion underneath. Both have a purpose and training only one will leave you with incomplete development. I like to use unilateral training for seated calf raises. So@e tips to do calf raises right…
-be on the ball of you foot
-keep your foot straight
-grip with your big toe to keep pressure from traveling towards the outside of your foot(the weakest part)
-sink your heels as low as you can and then drive your heels to the back of the knee
Hope this helps, have a good day!

Motivation isn’t always enough. It can come and go. Discipline is a mindset. Discipline doesn’t care if you’re tired, busy, happy, sad, or stressed. Discipline is showing up even when it’s hard or inconvenient. Make the choice to show up for yourself…EVERY DAY! You got this. Have a good day!

Having trouble with your RDLs? Here are some things to think about that might help…

-The RDL is a hinge not a leg drive exercise.

-Having a bend in the knee is ok to allow your hips to drive backwards, but it shouldn’t increase to get the weights lower to the floor.

-The depth of the weight depends entirely on how far your hips travel. When your hips stop going back the weights should stop going down. If the weight travels further after hip movement stops, you probably rounding your back or bending your knees.

-Your hands just connect you to the weights, your arms should just hang towards the floor. I like to use straps to minimize engagement.

-On the way back up drive your hips back under your shoulders don’t “yank” your torso up.

-Maintain core engagement and keep your head inline with your torso. Resist the urge to look straight ahead the whole time

Hope this helps. Have a good day!
