High passion rant, please just start lifting and exercising I promise you won't explode into success, it's simple but it's hard, progress is slow and built off of weeks and months of consistent hard work. You can do this!

Make the time for your own health

Supersets are a key to getting a quick and killer workout. Pick two exercises that target different muscle groups, do the first, immediately do the second, and then rest your 30-90 seconds. This massively cuts down on the length of your workouts, hits each muscle the same, and you get some free cardio in a 30-40 minute workout. YOU CAN DO THIS! Follow for more ways to save time and get fit.

Poor Recovery: "I don’t feel like working out today! I dont care!" When life is busy or youre having bad sleep like I did for a few days in a row, getting out of bed seems like a workout. On days like these, I switch my heavy/compound lifts to be lighter in weight and focus on technique. This way I’m not so drained from my workout, but giving even 50% is FAR better than skipping the gym entirely. You are only hurting your own progress when you skip your training. Share this with someone who always finds a way to make an excuse out of their training.

I know it's been a long time guys, physical therapy school took me down a few pegs, Had to step away from media for a while. But ik back at it now, better than ever!

Warming up prior to a workout should be quick, easy, and effective. Here are a few movement I like to do to emphasize shoulder stability. Plate halos activate alot of upper body musculature and help with motor coordination. Inch worms compress the humeral head into the shoulder joint which increases the stability of that joint, and you get a dynamic stretch of the hamstrings. A reverse lunge with a single weight overhead will work on total body stability and core activation. An overhead squat will work on ankle mobility, thoracic extension, and shoulder stability of course. 2 sets of these before a workout and you'll be ready to rock.

You don’t have to spend hours in the gym, or go to the gym several days a week to build or maintain your strength. It would surprise you to know that for most people, two days a week in the gym is enough to see continual progress if these days are done right! Having two total body workout days where you focus on the biggest bang for your buck lifts will leave your body stimulated enough to make adaptations! Of course this isn’t the most optimal amount of frequency, so try to add an extra day or two of other exercise if possible, but you will still see major improvements in your overall health. If you are a more trained individual this does not translate nearly as well, BUT if life becomes busy then it is a great fallback to maintain as much of your muscle and strength as possible. Here’s footage of my simple and quick workout that I was able to squeeze in on my first week of Physical Therapy School

Here's to the end of my first week! I know I took a long break but I'm hoping to start posting atleast twice a week again!

Mythbust Monday on a Tuesday!

The idea that you can outrun a bad diet or solely use cardio for weightloss is a common misconception. In fact, if you have been doing this for a long time its very possible that your body has adapted to the cardio you are doing so that you burn less calories! Lets look at this 6 pack of oreos, 160 calories right? Wrong, the serving size says 2 per container, meaning that the 6 oreos would add up to 320 calories, which would be the equivalent of me running 3 miles! So instead of trying to out run your calories, have a healthy nutrition plan, be smart about what you are eating, AND continue to exercise. I especially recommend lifting weights to put on muscle as this will have you burning extra calories throughout the rest of the day and not just the hour you spend in the gym.
