Care about your lifting longevity?
.
If you do, start using YOUR BODY to stabilize rather than machines and perform a variety of exercises across the foundational movement patterns (squat, hinge, lunge, push, pull).
.
This Z Press fits into the ‘vertical press’ category.
.
Training in this way will lead you
to look better, move better and perform better.
.
Relying too heavily on machines and training muscles over movements (as most people do) will likely lead to joint pain, tight muscles and appalling orthopedic health. It’s NOT sustainable.
.
If you want to experience a smarter way to train, stay tuned for my upcoming program - Rebuild Yourself. Less than 2 weeks until release.
.
I’m so confident it will change your entire approach to fitness that I’m going to let you try it out for FREE.

20 rep sets for the upper back.
.
Trying to build your upper back? Stop training in your comfort zone of 8-12 reps and throw in some 20 rep sets.
.
Bodybuilding legend Tom Platz was well known for 20+ rep sets to build his impressive physique and arguably the best wheels in bodybuilding history.
.
Aesthetics aside, building thickness to the upper back is good for many reasons, such as:
Shoulder health.
Posture.
Pressing strength (Due to building a bigger and stronger foundation).
.
This T-bar row works nicely but any double arm horizontal pulling exercise will do.
.
Shoot for 3 sets of 20 with 90 seconds between sets. You’ll feel muscles work like you’ve never felt before.
.
Try it out. Drop a comment below and let me know how it goes

1min of Hell
——
So yeah i know its Sunday! Chill out time i know. So just let me do your mobility work you should had on schedule for today.
——
I decided to change things up and did a combination of 3 exercises here.
I blocked myself against the stallbar so i was not able to move (compensate) at all! My knee was always in line with my hips laterally for the extra challenge! Give that a try !
Half Cars
Hip Flexion Lift Offs
Knee Hinges
Half Cars = 1Rep
I did these for 2 Sets with 2 Reps
——
After the Hell my Hips were in Heaven! Monkey was Happy
——
✅Happy Sunday Guys Hope your Session was good too!

Mobility / Cardio Day.
.
The two missing links in many peoples training. Are you training these physical qualities?
.
Today I did some work for the hips - the videos show 3 kinetic stretch which is a very active type of stretching. Then I did 60 mins steady state cardio - 30 on the Wattbike, 30 on the Ski Erg
.
Cardio benefits:
Recover faster.
Increase work capacity.
Increase longevity.
To name a few...
.
Mobility benefits:
Maintain range of motion.
Prevent stiffness and joint aches / pains.
Optimize joint health & longevity.
To name a few...
.
This will be in my Rebuild Yourself program twice weekly and progressive over the 12 weeks more info to come soon!

There isn’t a pressing exercise that’s more fundamental than the push up.
.
And when you can complete 10 perfect reps, you gotta load that sucker up.
.
Here’s one way to do it - loading up a dip belt and using a barbell in a squat rack. I also like bands and chains.
.
Once I max the dip belt out, I’m gunna need to load a human on my back. Any takers?

How many can I get? @coachzachdeck Pistol Hover Hip Flex Challenge.
.
Didn’t cleared it nice and smooth on my last attempt, but I did it
Loads to work on tho - cause @alexhasselkuss cleared 7 yoga blocks total #birthdaychallenge
————————————————————————
NOW I CHALLENGE YOU
Sit against a wall (as CLOSE to the wall as possible)
Hover without sliding forward with your behind.
Arms held up high - no help from them either
Say Goodbye to your hip flexors for the rest of the day or week depending on how many hovers you go for

Stiff low back? This ones for you. I posted this exercise a while back but It’s so damn effective, it deserves a repost!
.
Here’s what I want you to do - Take a picture of yourself performing a cat cow. When you perform the ‘cat’ (rounded back) is your low back flat?
.
If it is, you need to work on lumbar spine mobility. A healthy spine should be able to display both flexion and extension across all the articulations.
.
I’ve got just the exercise
.
✅ How it’s done.
.
Take a light band around your low back, loop through your thumbs and assume an all 4s position.
.
To round the back - attempt to stretch the band exactly where it meets your back. Think about tucking your tailbone and crunching your abs as you do so.
.
To arch the back - allow the band to pull the spine to the floor. Think about tilting the tailbone to the sky, stripping your belly button to the ground and contracting the spinal erectors.
.
✅ How often?
.
This is about quality AND quantity. A few round of 5-10 reps a few times per week. It’s not an exact science but the more motion the better!
.
When these joints start to move better, you should feel the achiness and stiffness melt away.
.
Make sure you are also strength training the legs (squats and deadlift variations) and doing plenty of core work.
.
Mobility and strength training must go hand in hand to build a resilient, pain-free back
.
Tag someone with low back pain. This should help

Tight upper traps? Shoulder pain? This ones for you.
.
If you spend lots of time on your phone or laptop, theres a good chance your shoulder blades are often hiked up to your ears (scapula elevation) which leads to short + tight upper traps.
.
This exercise works the opposite motion (scapula depression).
.
Strengthening this motion is going to help alleviate that tightness. It’s also going to help bring better muscular balance across the shoulder girdle which is great for improving overall shoulder health and function.
.
How it’s done.
✅Sit in an L-sit position with yoga blocks under hands.
✅Press into the blocks with straight arms to depress your shoulder blades away from your ears and lift your body up (think tall through the crown).
✅Pause at the top for 3 seconds.
✅Lower down slowly and repeat for 5 reps - hit 3 rounds.
.
Do this routine daily or several times a week and see how you feel a couple weeks from now. I’m confident you’ll notice quite a big difference
.
Please tag and share with any desk-bound mates

Ridiculously hard pull up variation: Bent Knee Chaos Pull Ups
.
This bundle of fun just made its way into my program as my ‘heavy’ vertical pulling exercise of the week.
.
Needless to say it’s hard as fuck as it utterly refuses to let you perform a rep without pristine form.
.
It will also expose weakness instantly, whether that’s grip strength, lack of core stability or the ability to control scapula depression.
.
Try it out if you’re looking to progress conventional pull ups beyond just adding load. It’s a lot of fun and will make a man out of you or send you crying to the pull down machine
