A Zone Bar, bagel, and coke....
Isn’t a running diet to make!
Busy day, lots of work, crappy fueling, and warm weather made for a change in plans. So today became a no watch run, to get in some miles, and enjoy the fact I have the chance to run.
Hope you had a great day and great run!! #suburbrunning #trainsmarter #enjoytherun #zonebar

Quick Form Tip:
-
When doing a dumbbell Chest Flye, try to bring the elbows parallel or slightly below the shoulders or bench. I see guys and girls stretching too far at the bottom and this will put you at a higher risk for injury. Especially when you’re using heavier weight.
-
Another thing to focus on is the actual squeeze. As you’re coming up, imagine you’re about to hug someone. This will help you engage the pecs more and further squeeze at the top.
-
My strength is definitely increasing with my new program. I was doing 55lbs a month ago. I love it when a plan comes together.

How to properly use the Lying Leg Curl machine.
-
Like with most exercises, we want to control the movement. As you can see from the video we have a right and wrong.
-
In the right, we stay steady and controlled. Keeping the hips down and only pulling with the legs in a controlled manner.
-
In the wrong, we bring the hips off of the pad and moving the upper body as well.
-
You see this one a lot in the gym. People load the weight and break form just to get it to move.
-
Decrease the weight and focus on slow and controlled movements or even slow eccentrics.
-
Tag someone who has bad form on the Lying Leg Curl

Develop your hip flexors with this band ex. Hip flexors are crucial for your knee drive when sprinting, when throwing your knees in Muay Thai etc.
Do this ex with a light band for activation or get the heavy band out to develop strength / power.
Big up to @nooch_13 for inspiring this drill go give this man a follow. #unprofessionalathlete

The solution you have been waiting for!
In my Last post I discussed a lot of the problems I have when it comes to building my ideal physique! The chaos of life often times stands in the way of reaching our goals. Today I am going to share with you the solution…. the solution to maximizing your efforts in the gym.
Let me start off by saying, the solution must be broken down into 3 categories, training, mindset and nutrition. Within each of these 3 categories, there are 3 foundational pillars that will provide the solution to building your ideal physique amongst a busy life!
The First training foundational pillar is:
Training Intensity
Training intensity is not lifting faster and harder while loudly grunting during your sets lol
Training intensity is a calculated training method that utilizes 1) shorter rest periods and 2) Pre/Post exhaustion.
Training intensity creates metabolic stress (fatigue) which in turn triggers protein synthesis which causes the muscles to grow. Training intensity also aligns itself with burst based training, turning each workout into a high intensity intervals session.
Training intensity not only creates muscle growth, but also burns fat! It elevates the heart rate and burns more calories during and after the workout.
Another added benefit of training intensity is muscle endurance.
My next post I will discuss the second training foundation pillar.

READ BELOW: This is for all that think hours in the gym will help you get better results!!
-
Ample amounts of training may seem like a sensible path to take when trying to reach the physique of your dreams, but it’s actually the path of destruction… Because any training session that goes above the 45-minute mark actually causes your testosterone levels to self-destruct!
-
Which is a major problem for you because testosterone is the main contributor to a knock-out physique.
-
When you train past the 45-minute mark your stress hormone, cortisol, skyrockets in a hurry. Cortisol is known as testosterone’s kryptonite because once cortisol begins pumping through your veins, testosterone loses all of its power to do what you need it to do for you….
In most cases, burn fat and build muscle!!
-
When your workouts consistently push you past the cortisol “tipping point” you’ll experience hormonal imbalances, fatigue, frequent illness, mood swings, and depression… All of which can steal you away from your fat-loss journey and even cause you to gain more weight…
-
And unfortunately, cortisol can take over your anabolic hormones in more ways than one!
-
So stop doing yourself a disservice and get in and out of the gym. Have a plan, execute it and leave! If you need help with a sound workout program, message me
