I see people doing fast twitching movements for many exercises. Most common one is the Calf Raise.
As you can see there is little stretch in the muscle and very little activation.
Slowing down with a smooth motion allows for stretch and full activation of the muscle.

When performing the Tricep Extension the goal should be to have the load acting on the elbow as much as possible.
Most people unfortunately are putting more of the load through their shoulders than elbows. Meaning the Tricep is not getting full benefit of the exercise.
If you are using cables and had the cables running closer to your elbows then the load is going through your shoulders.
Try doing Tricep extensions like I am, with the cables close to the shoulder joint, without rotating the humerus. This will put the load through your elbow, thus hitting the Triceps more efficiently.

Starting the week off with a super common question I get asked as a Personal Trainer.
You should be eating .8 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight per day.
This needs to be in conjugation with the correct amount of carbs and fats.

If you need help coming up with nutrition plans so you know how much to eat of each, please reach out!

It takes 3,500 calories to produce 1 pound of body weight. So in order for you to have gained that in Fat, you would of had to eat an insane amount of food on top of how much your body burns just performing normal functions.

Never had to think about this, but it is -29 and icy outside! So if you are in a place where it’s harder to get to a gym, or need to have an alternative option based on weather and time bands can always be a great option!
Reach out if you are interested in training, or have any questions! I’m doing online training and would love to help you reach your goals!

Struggling to lose weight? Has weight not come off, even though you are cutting calories? Are you finding it difficult to stick to a diet because you are always hungry?

In my experience, this is usually because you are NOT eating enough food. Let that sink in.

Most people who come to me wanting to lose weight have either cut a whole nutrient out of their diet, or have limited themselves to what is equivalent to the “grilled chicken and broccoli” diet. Not sustainable, not enjoyable so it doesn’t last. Causing the person to snowball back into old habits and gaining all weight back and sometimes gaining more. Which then starts the whole cycle over.

This isn’t the persons fault, there is a ton of “fast diets” and “lose 20lbs in 3 days” diets available on the internet. Only makes sense that with all the information out there, good and bad, things get harder to understand and use.

It’s much more than burning more calories than what you eat. That’s the first step. On paper that makes total sense. You also have to make sure you eat enough for your body to keep functioning in a healthy way. Not eating enough calories will make your body think it’s starving, and it will store the food you eat. Long story short, this will keep you from your weight loss goal.

If any of these obstacles sound familiar, I am here to help! Reach out and I hope to start working with some of you on your fitness goals!

Having a set workout time is super important. Not only are you making it a priority in your busy schedule, but you will see improvements in your workouts and results.
Just like your circadian rhythm your body knows around what time you sleep and wake. All depending on external influences. So having a set workout time will allow your body to know when it’s time to work and when it’s time to rest. Allowing you to work harder and recover more efficiently.
Do you have a set schedule?

I am training in person and also online! So if you have any fitness questions or need help getting on track to a fitness goal, let me know!

Hello everyone! Figured I’d start off with an Ab Circuit. This is a fast, but great workout that can be done as a warm up, or something to add on to the end of a workout. Give it a try and let me know how it was!

Things to think about:
-Knee Drivers do not need to be fast. Try and go the entire 30 seconds without letting the foot of the driving leg touch the ground.
-Russian Twists: if you are wanting a harder workout extend your legs away from you, while keeping your feet off the ground.

Workout:
High Walking Plank 1 min
Alternating Right & Left side plank 30 seconds
Right Knee Drives 30 seconds
Left Knee Drive 30 seconds
Russian twists 30 seconds
Flutter kick 45 seconds

REST

Repeat One More Time
