24.01.2022 Today I decided to show you how I built my brand new piece of equipment: A leg curl/leg extension machine!!!! I’ll happily let you know this is the first piece of equipment I did not have to disassemble because I built it wrong...... I think... Took a good 3ish hours, but this boy didn’t quit

16.01.2022 When you are writing a training program, looking at how many days a week you should be training, or what exercises will benefit you the most. They should not be focused on how many calories am I burning Yes, when exercising you will burn calories that will help out you in a calorie deficit. But a much easier and effective method of being in a calorie deficit is EATING in a calorie deficit. Eat food that will fuel you, help you function, help you train and build a strong phy...sique, but don’t think if you do those extra high knees or super set burpees with box jumps you can burn off that sneaky extra half a dozen donuts you at the night before. Eat healthy, eat the foods you enjoy, and eat them all in the correct portion sizes. Then go smash a workout and build that killer physique at the gym.

15.01.2022 Obviously this is just a witty joke. Or is it But nobody has ever woken up in a strange public bathroom, with a pounding headache, vomit down their front from eating too many Snickers. Sugar is addictive, but it shouldn’t be seen as the enemy. It is ok to have a snack every so often and enjoy life. But if you’re snorting crushed up jellybeans, sneaking away to pop a few M&Ms or going to back alleys to meet your local snack man, maybe you need to reassess your view on sna...cks. Train hard, be happy, eat a TimTam and enjoy the fitness journey you are on!

15.01.2022 Eating healthy shouldn’t be as complicated as typing in nuclear launch codes, doing year 9 trigonometry, planning when’s the best time to host your secret cult meetings or working out what is the air speed velocity of a unladen swallow! A homemade snack should be simple ingredients, simple steps and still taste somewhat good. Don’t overcomplicate your life with unneeded stress about food. Keep it simple!

14.01.2022 I have a love hate relationship with split squats, I hate doing them myself, but love giving them to my clients. BUT WAIT, there is a reason why I program them in just let me explain! Split squats let you really focus on weaknesses that may be brushed over when completing bi-lateral leg movements like squats, deadlifts and leg press. Every split squat has a different reason why it is programmed, so I’ve decided to explain why you would need to do many different alterations of... split squats to target different muscles. Front Heel Elevated: to work the front quad even harder, you raise the front heel of the front foot to put more pressure on the quad, similar to a heels elevated squat. You are also able to complete a further range of motion, which causes more quad muscle recruitment. Back Foot Elevated: is a very over looked variation of the split squat. From raising that back foot just slightly you are able to create a bit more depth in the split squat before your back knee hits the ground. Since the toe is down at the back, you can use that to push giving more stability to the front leg. Here you won’t push as far forward on the front quad, but sit further back keeping the shin more vertical, this helps with more glute recruitment. Bulgarian Split Squat: My all time favourite split squat and booty builder. The further out your foot goes, and less you drive your knee over your foot, the more glute recruitment you will get and less quad work. You are also able to get substantial more depth compared to the other two split squats, due to the height of the rear leg. If you don’t do split squats in your program, you are missing out on some serious leg gains

14.01.2022 When it comes to losing body fat, people can be concerned that the weight they are losing is actually muscle mass instead of fat. So that your body retains as much muscle as it can while dieting to lose body fat, these are 4 things you can do to make sure you can keep those gains going. 1. Lift some bloody weights! Don’t start lifting lighter or doing super high reps because you are doing fat loss reps. Keep those big ass weights coming to build some serious muscle... 2. You need protein to build muscles, and when it comes to weight loss it is just as important to consume the right amount. You should be having approx 1.8-2.4g protein per kilo of bodyweight (if you are vegan you can drop it down to about 1.4g per kilo). 3. Don’t drop your calories to ridiculously low numbers. Yes you’ll lose weight UBER fast, but you will force your body to consume fat and muscle as a source of food. Find a comfortable calorie deficit and stick there 4. Stop doing insane amounts of cardio. You do not need to do crazy lengths of cardio to lose body weight, it really doesn’t burn fat as much as you think it does. Eating less will cause more fat loss than doing 2 hours of running a day Now go eat a donut, chuck a few hundred kilos around, have a protein shake, and just be patient. It’s a long journey but it’s bloody worth it if you stick around

08.01.2022 This will be the first Christmas at Bods By Sam gym!

07.01.2022 There’s always a secret potion, exercise, cream or diet that’ll make all your fitness dreams come true. But whatever hocus pocus that is being pushed, the only thing that will help you hit your goals effectively is correct nutrition, consistent training and patience. If it seems too easy and too good to be true, chances are it usually is

06.01.2022 I have had Bods By Sam open officially now for just over 4 months and finally decided to get a BIG ASS LOGO on my wall (it was that or a picture of my face... hard choice). Thanks to Nikki Crompton and Enthorium Publishing for doing such an insane job at designing, building and sticking it up on the wall. I’m so proud of what I have created and can’t wait to see what is in store for future at Bods By Sam

06.01.2022 Don’t let those gains go to waste. Scowl, frown, glare or pout to get those muscles

06.01.2022 I may get lots of flak from this post, or people saying I don’t understand because I don’t have kids, but using the excuse I don’t have time because of the kids is by far the easiest excuse to use. Having children does not give you a free pass into an unhealthy lifestyle of weight gain and bad food choice eating. Having children should be a perfect reason to get fit and healthy. What sort of role model do you want to be for your children? One that prioritises a healthy life...style and conscientious about their nutritional intake, or one that makes excuses about not enough time in the day to incorporate planning meals, being active and promoting health to their children. Excuses are easy but unrewarding. Doing the work is hard but the investment pays off.

05.01.2022 It’s as simple as that. You don’t want to let time pass and live with regret of what you should’ve done to reach your goals. Be able to thank your past self for putting the time, effort, money and overall attitude to doing the hard yards to reap the benefits in the future. It may seem like a sucky journey or you aren’t making progress. But if you keep trying, no matter what odds are put against you, you will always succeed.

02.01.2022 Your average leg day at Bods By Sam. If there’s not enough weights to be used, we just start stacking people on the equipment

02.01.2022 STOP OVER-COMPLICATING EXERCISES! It seems that people are trying to find the secret exercise that will give them those super gains that they see on Instagram. But there’s no secret formula, there’s no magic elbow twist or scapula pinch or knee flare that the pros use for extra muscle.... Stick to the basics, get good at the basics, master the basics, and then keep doing them. The basic exercises may seem boring or repetitive, but they are what get serious results.

01.01.2022 From helping with stability and decreasing the change of injuries, to reducing the effects of osteoporosis, lifting weights/resistance training is one of the greatest things you can do to benefit your bodies health and well being. And there is no time where it is too late to start lifting.
