A lot of people program wrong

Every week they try to add a new workout or exercise to their program trying to confuse the muscle or because when they do the new exercise it makes them feel sore.

They're doing it wrong.

In terms of muscle building it takes a long time doing the same workouts repeatedly to see results. this could be 3 to 4 months,

Even for me when I was trying to build my arms adding HALF AN INCH took over 3 months.

Yeah. It's that slow, but even then, 3 months to build half an inch is pretty fast.

Stay consistent do your favorite workouts every week for a couple of months, and if you STOP seeing progress, change it up!

To be honest, Bulgarians are the worst.

I have a love hate relationship with them. They are SO good for building muscle yet during the exercise I just want to vomit.

They are one of the most fun exercises to do with other people as well.

Pull ups are one of the first big milestones that prove you're getting stronger for beginners and one that's super important in terms of back strength!

It can be pretty hard to get a pull up at first, but once you know which exercises to do it's within your reach!

Start with exercises that strengthen your back and arms like
- assisted pull up
- Lat pull down
- T Bar Rows
- Cable Rows
- Dead Hangs
- Scapula Pulls

These are all exercises that will help you get your pull up quick!

Make sure you are using progressive overload so that you can keep increasing weight!

HIIT workouts are a great tool if you have heart problems, want to lose some weight or just to be healthier!

Personally, I despise doing them just like Bulgarian split squats so I try to only do them during my cut, but if it's something you enjoy definitely do them!

This is one of the mistakes I made along the way too, Where I was hoping " Oh I'll do this quick, gaining muscle isn't too hard" or "I'll lose the fat in like a month"

I was in for a rude awakening when I couldn't gain 30 pounds of muscle in a year.

These things take time. Have patience and plan ahead. 3, 6, 12, 24 months. All of those time frames work for different goals, and take into account your pace as well. If you're going fast to lose weight aim for 3 months, if you want to gain 20 lbs. of muscle aim for 1 - 2 years.

Staying hydrated is pretty hard sometimes. I know a lot of people who randomly get headaches because they don't drink enough water... you know who you are :)

BUT because you need it you have to at LEAST have a reusable water bottle so you can drink water on the go.

If you're dehydrated you're gonna feel like s**t and not be able to go hard during your workouts. Which leaves gains on the table, and it's also pretty dangerous because you could always get dehydrated and knock out.

Drink water!

These are the big 5 compound exercises!

They help with overall strength and development.

Generally when doing a workout like a leg day, pull day, or push day I'll do a compound first to workout every part of the muscle group I'm trying to workout.

After doing the compounds I'll start doing isolation movements so that I can target the specific muscles that I would like to build.

When you're losing fat there are certain tips that can help you out.

1. Being in a Caloric deficit.
This means eating less food than you need to sustain yourself. Because you eat less food than you need your body dives into your fat stores for new energy. Having more muscle helps!

2. Eating protein
When you are in a caloric deficit your body may want to get rid of the muscle that is using energy in the body. Without eating enough protein you will lose muscle during a cut.

3. Working out/ Cardio
these are one of the biggest helpers when it comes to my own fat loss, as working out helps me maintain the muscle that I have, and cardio helps me average out my calories!

There is a lot of papers out there talking about one of the most proven ways to de-stress yourself and even to help with depression.

It's working out. Going to the gym. Being even moderately Active.

If you read the papers they will say Exercise and physical activity is correlated with higher well being, higher quality of life and lowers depressive symptoms.

It's crazy how a small change in your routine can change your daily life. Keep that in mind!

Being Flexible actually helps with a lot of different aspects of lifting!

Tightness can stop you from reaching a full depth ASS TO GRASS squat, it can mess with your posture, and also your mobility.

Being able to have full range of motion on all of your body parts helps to deal with injuries or imbalances that you may have.

If you are dealing with any imbalances or lack of flexibility ask your local trainer or write a comment so that we can help you out!

I saw a video on YouTube recently with someone talking about chasing the activities rather than the results.

To make that easier to understand, here's a gym analogy.

We all want to see results and get a six pack or have a lean body, nice legs or arms. The thing is how many of us chase going to the gym or eating better, instead of just aiming for the results. You won't see the results immediately, those take awhile. On the other hand if you perfect going to the gym 4 or 5 days a week (1 activity), and eating right (2 activity). You'll get to your goals in no time.

Cardio is great for your heart and for endurance! It's also really helpful for increasing the amount of calories you burn.

I want to clarify, cardio is really great in general BUT doing SOLELY cardio with the goal of losing fat is an unrealistic goal.

It's much better when it's combined with weightlifting if your goal is to lose fat!

If you're looking for training so that you can lose weight you've been having trouble getting off Send me a DM I'd love to help you out!
