25.01.2022 Stay motivated. Slow progress is the key to safe and sustainable results! ----------------------------------------------------------------------- #fitness #fit #sport #athlete #canberra #australia #training #exercise #rehab #strength #coach #lifting #gym #crossfit #powerlifting #bodybuilding #personaltrainer #movement #therapy #fitfam #clublime #PFT #health #active #motivation #lift #training #work #workout #train #fitfam

25.01.2022 What should you be looking for in a personal trainer? I have been in the fitness industry for just over 2 years now and can already say that like many professions and markets around, the Fitness industry has been oversaturated with a huge amount of "Qualified" Personal trainers who lack knowledge and skill in a profession that should demand a higher bar to allow someone to work so closely in managing a clients health, fitness, strength progression and overall safety. 1) The P...T should be able to explain everything he is doing and why it is important to you. It should be in a way you can understand and makes sense. Fitness gibberish isn't useful if he is making it up as well. 2) Your goal should be Paramount for training. If it doesn't feel like it's being addressed then ask - they should be able to explain how it's being worked at and if not, why not. 3) You should feel safe and nothing should hurt (besides doing those 100 metre rowing intervals of course). Pain not relating to the intensity or fatigue that the training brings should be addressed and stop. If it hurts they should be able change/manipulate the exercises so you don't feel like your back is going to break (muscle soreness and a sore knee are different, don't be afraid to ask). 4) The PT should be great at motivating you but it shouldn't take away from the actual focus of the session which is exercise and how it is going to help you effectively and efficiently. Conversation about the weekend is good but making sure your knees aren't caving while squatting is more important. 5) Training should be fun and make you feel comfortable. These are few of the simple ways you can address after a trial session with a PT whether or not it was what you want. Definitely remember to try different Personal trainers out and ask lots of questions. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- #personaltraining #training #exercise #fitness #fit #fitfam #gym #bodybuilding #work #workout #squat #canberra #health #movement #sport #lift #lifting #followme #tips #lifstyle #nutrition #australia #clublime @jakeysboy_ #gymmypt #powerlifting #crossfit #weightlifting

22.01.2022 When clients come into training with me the first thing we do is give them is an assessment package. ________________________________________________ This assessment package includes: - Body measurements - Photos - Performance tests - Goniometry ROM ... ________________________________________________ Each form of test is ideally meant to bring a holistic approach to the training and allow us a big base for seeing improvements every 6 weeks. ________________________________________________ Each test can be used or swapped out depending on the goal - because it's about individual improvement we follow standardised tests tailored to the clients goal and background. ________________________________________________ Some clients are lucky enough to get their assessment package with a 70s style Mo ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- #fitness #fit #sport #athlete #canberra #australia #training #exercise #rehab #strength #coach #lifting #gym #crossfit #powerlifting #bodybuilding #personaltrainer #movement #therapy #fitfam #clublime #PFT #health #active #motivation #lift #training #work #workout #train #fitfam

20.01.2022 I noticed recently how people (coaches, trainers, athletes) have a tendency to initally overcomplicate things when it comes to exercise issues. Here's an example: in video one I have a case of bad internal rotation of my knees (valgus pattern) as I come out of the squat. If I were say back squatting moderate to high intensity squats and my knees kept caving as I came out of the hole. Instead of looking at glute med activation, hip or knee dominant squatting or even the mecha...nics of how my patella tracks in relation to the Tibia and foot. Why not cue strong external rotation first and if still considerable valgus pattern occurs; then lower the weight and try again. Most scenarios this fixes the issue. Don't keep someone loaded up in a dangerous bio- mechanical issue or jump to an advanced conclusion. --------------------------------------------------------------- #imsimple #keepitsimple #stepbystep #dontovercomplicateit #training #fit #fitness #mechanics #squat #movement #exercise #nutrition #health #canberra #australia #clublime #health #crossfit #powerlifting #bodybuilding #strength #lifting #lift #power #personaltrainer #coach @performancefitnesstrainingau

20.01.2022 The new year brings a lot of resolutions, plans and motivation. One of these could be fitness and achieving a fitness goal whether it be for health, aesthetics or a sport. No matter what you do it for its important to do it properly and the most effective way. This calls for a personal training typically; unfortunately in todays fitness industry ALOT of "professionals" i see are either rushing courses to meet basic qualifications, not taking seriously a clients (you) health a...nd training their clients (you again) in effectively or stupidly. What to look for im a personal trainer/fitness coach: - fitness assessments and sectional regularly that shows improvement and focus on goals - health screenings and postural checks included in PT package - They an explain what is being "trained", why they are doing it how it relates to goals and why it helps simply - You experience 0 pain and feel safe - Finally you enjoy yourself and can see improvements These are the bare essentials in what you should look for when seeking PT/fitness services; specalists trainers should include more. (Which i do) Save yourself the trouble for the new year and send me an email so we can fast track your fitness and health goals without the worry and with the great deals available currently!

18.01.2022 Testing and working through uni lateral control and midline stability.

18.01.2022 Excited to be working with Josh Wu. Josh has decided to make the huge decision to become a 77kg weightlifter and along with that some of his goals are: - fix movement mechanic issues to become more efficient lifting and stay more injury free. - help with his body composition transition to move up weight categories while staying lean and athletic. ... - warm up more effectively to activate and utilitize his Neuro muscular system better. Today's session was some extremely simple corrective exercises and basic injury prevention hypertrophy work. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- @joshwu7 @performancefitnessau @camperdownfitness.com.au #sydney #awf #fit #fitness #training #weightlifting #australia #lift #lifting #snatch #clean #jerk #squat #exercise #health #sport #gym #crossfit #bodybuilding #fitfam #athlete #strength #injuryprevention #coach #personaltrainer

17.01.2022 LADIES ____________________________________________ Working with plenty of women who are either seasoned fitness goers or who are new to strength training both athletes and regular people. Without fault on our first session I will hear: ____________________________________________ Lifting weights will make you big and bulky, even if you’re a girl. ... ____________________________________________ "The truth? Getting ‘big’ requires years of commitment and dedication. No one ever became muscular by accident, so if you’re worried about picking up a barbell once and become too jacked, you can rest easy - it ain’t gonna happen." - Romero Athletics -------------------------------------------------------------------------- #fitness #fit #sport #athlete #canberra #australia #training #exercise #rehab #strength #coach #lifting #gym #crossfit #powerlifting #bodybuilding #personaltrainer #movement #therapy #fitfam #clublime #PFT #health #active #motivation #lift #training #work #workout #train #fitfam #woman #girls #ladies

17.01.2022 Some knowledge from @tomfitzgerald.ifn . . . Repost... No, because then it wouldn't be a 'bad diet'. ______ A diet is neither good nor bad, based solely on the food it contains. ______ A diet can be appropriate or not appropriate, based on it's suitability for your desired outcome. ______ These terms are often used interchangeably. ______ Can you lose weight while eating a diet that contains junk food? Yes, provided energy expenditure exceeds energy intake. ______ Can you gain weight from a diet that contains only unprocessed foods? Yes, provided energy intake exceeds energy expenditure. ______ A good diet is appropriate to your goal, while a bad diet is not. ______ If you eat more junk food, but increase training to accomodate (and therefore energy expenditure) you can still lose weight. Therefore, it is not a bad diet! ____________ #fit #fitness #health #canberra #personaltrainer #strength #lift #lifting #nutrition #food #crossfit #healthy #australia #powerlifting #bodybuilding #exercise #training

16.01.2022 This is the purest example of what hard work can get you in the gym. Isaac has been working with me for a long time but only for the last few months in the gym. He has now reached the point where has can do 3x6-10 "tower stacks". If you knew the amount of variables and challenges Isaac has overcome and worked through to reach this point you'd be more amazed. Isaac loves what he does, understands the effort and comes in weekly ready to get it done - regardless of how he feels.... This is one of the many goals that he has hit which has allowed pathways to open to help him be more independent and functional ------------------------------------------------------------------ Reaching this point is amazing especially with the factor we can finally help address as much as possible his extreme kyphosis and scoliosis of his spine. This is not only a corrective exercise but also hand eye co ordination taxing his Neuro muscular system aswell as general strength building task. Be more like Isaac. --------------------------------------------------------------------- #keepitsimple #imsimple #clublime #fitness #fit #exercise #gym #training #canberra #australia #strength #bodybuilding #crossfit #health #health #motivation #change #movement #weightlifting #lift #personaltraining #crossfit #powerlifting #isaacsbandofbrothersandsister

09.01.2022 EFFECTIVE WAY TO BUILD MUSCLE MASS Alot of people are In the gym to purely build lean muscle mass and get bigger. Unfortunately sometimes we go about it the wrong way. Because I'm not knowledgeable totally in the nutrition side - I'll go over training and exercise stimulus side.... Studies show that 1) Equal lean muscle mass that is acquired from HFT training (high frequency training) as well from LFT training are similar(low frequency) ASLONG as accumulative volume is the same for the week. 2) Eccentric loading or the typical lowering portion of the exercise when loaded and control will bring increased muscle mass. 3) Compound functional movements aid with muscle growth when done correctly. What does this mean to you? A) If you are going to do split days or full body days make sure to get quality sets and reps. Targeting the muscle region or group in TOTAL 2-3 times a session and 2-3 times a week (or 6-9 times a week for LFT). B) Make sure they are slow and controlled focusing on form and quality over quantity. C) Just a mixture of compound and functional movements to aid in growth and total lean body mass. Less swinging and pumping More volume and control https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4836564/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4620252/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18981046 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- #dimesoverpennies #fit #fitness #strength #training #gym #exercise #crossfit #movementtherapy #move #bodybuilding #weightlifting #powerlifting #athlete #health #motivation #sport #form #canberra #personaltrainer #coach #australia

06.01.2022 CORRECT PLANK POSITIONING Quick tip of the day is plank positioning. I see far too many people holding the initial extreme back lordosis or anterior tilt position in the plank generally because they lack pelvic control. ... Doing this may mean your plank lasts for ages but will leave you with a sore back and not the desired affect of a strong stable core!! In the video you can see that when standing/kneeling we typically have a 'neutral' spine. We want to create MILD posterior tilt by squeezing our glutes and stomach (rectus abdominus) and tilting our tailbone underneath hips. You will probably find your plank lasts a lot shorter and you get the shakes sooner! Work for good form and control over quantity of sets and time. Good luck @lachlanhc --------------------------------------------------------------------- #dimesoverpennies #fit #fitness #strength #training #gym #exercise #crossfit #movementtherapy #move #bodybuilding #weightlifting #powerlifting #athlete #health #motivation #sport #form #canberra #personaltrainer #coach #australia

05.01.2022 Here's my Athlete @joshwu7 slowing working toward some strict toes to bar. I've been asked how I work with an athlete like Josh or any strength athlete when it comes to programming and what role i take. Josh already has a great specalist Weightlifting coach and there is very little i could do with helping him in that regard @burwoodweightlifting. Joshes sport and training are very closely linked besides the peaked stimulus in competition. This means that we have to be to be ...careful with programming especially in regards to volume and intensity ratio in relation to his Weightlifting program. I take the role to work on exercise selection, injury prevention and management. I work to assist Josh in staying injury free, recovery and allow him to work on his weaknesses that aren't focused on when lifting to let him be the best he can be. This includes appropriate exercise selection to help fix dysfunction, muscular skeletal imbalances and assistance 'junk free' exercise that may improve the total picture of his Weightlifting without taking away from it. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- #keepitsimple #weightlifting #crossfit #strength #sport #athlete #training #exercise #lifting #strong #gym #fit #fitness #fitfam #lifting #powerlifting #olympic #snatch #clean #health #nutrition #bodybuilding #development #personaltraining #coach #abs

05.01.2022 Can't weightlift because of a legs/back injury? - no worries! Seated muscle snatch inspiration from coach Ma. Chinese Weightlifters still use muscle snatches just as a strength accessory exercise. It should be controlled and smooth instead of a two part lift. I found it extremely difficult - give it a go. ------------------------------------------------------------------ ... #imsimple #keepitsimple #dontovercomplicateit #weightlifting #crossfit #strength #gym #snatch #training #exercise #movement #press #lifting #bodybuilding #powerlifting #fit #fitness #athlete @jakeysboy_ #health #nutrition #canberra #clublime #curtin #australia #personaltrainer #function #teamrehab #teambadknees

05.01.2022 Is having toes over knees are bad thing? Not necessarily, the issue doesn't lie directly with your knee tracking over your toes. Some people anatomically cannot get into any kind of deep squat or even parrellel squat without this happening because of there tibia length in relation to there femur and torso. What's more important is the bio mechanics of the movement, the mobility of the person squatting and how it feels.... Example A) Someone's knees knees cave in every squat as they try to come up (see my previous post about this) then that isn't going to be good mechanics for the knees. This can be fixed my technique and set up. Example B) Client squatting heels lift off the ground or immediately get insane 'buttwink'. This issue can probably be improved by mobility and soft tissue work. Example C) The squatter gets bad knee pain when coming out of a seemingly normal squat with great mechanics and is only slightly knee dominant. This COULD be potentially the lack of activation or muscle fire timing/ strength in musculature around hips. . My point being there are still some big 'no-no's' in regards to movement patterns; and in this case squatting. . No two people are the same and knees going over toes doesn't neccasarily mean it's the do all end all of knee health while squatting. . Aslong as precautions are taken, adequate feedback provided and suitable coaching is available. All will be okay.

05.01.2022 Ricardo back again working on some snatch balances. This exercise is no joke. ___________________________________________________ - It greatly improves control and stability deep in the snatch. - Creates some mobility via function. ____________________________________________________... In time we will have Ricardo hold the squat at the lowest point and when more mobile aim for more depth and speed. @im_ricardo -------------------------------------------------------------------------- #fitness #fit #sport #athlete #canberra #australia #training #exercise #rehab #strength #coach #lifting #gym #crossfit #powerlifting #bodybuilding #personaltrainer #movement #therapy #fitfam #clublime #PFT #health #active #motivation #lift #training #work #workout #train #fitfam

03.01.2022 Try this version of the gliding reverse lunge. __________________________________________________ Pros of the movment are:... - More stabilization required through hips - When done properly much more knee and spine friendly - Engages glutes in lunge/drive/set position __________________________________________________ TIPS : - try gliding back slowly. As you can see I struggle with this. - Start with a hip hinge and slowly glide leg backwards - Knee should be at 90 degrees - Tuck tail underneath (posterior pelvic tilt) - Align hips so they are straight - Squeeze glutes going down and up - Push through front heel --------------------------------------------------------------------------- #fitness #fit #sport #athlete #canberra #australia #training #exercise #rehab #strength #coach #lifting #gym #crossfit #powerlifting #bodybuilding #personaltrainer #movement #therapy #fitfam #clublime #PFT #health #active #motivation #lift #training #work #workout #train #fitfam

02.01.2022 I have been incorpating this reverse glute hyper into my rehab daily as it doesn't load my knee but allows me to get some engagement of my primary hip extensor which has been neglected from knee issues. I don't have the correct machine where I train so I've improvised using this and found it's a great accessory exercise regardless of where your training is at. You can make it harder by increasing the angle and rolling the ball back. Help make it effective by keeping both ecc...entric exponentially slower than the raising portion and make sure to cue by pushing hips into the ball and focus on really squeezing. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- #imsimple #keepitsimple #stepbystep #dontovercomplicateit #training #fit #fitness #mechanics #squat #movement #exercise #nutrition #health #canberra #australia #clublime #health #crossfit #powerlifting #bodybuilding #strength #lifting #lift #power #personaltrainer #coach #fitfam @performancefitnesstrainingau See more

01.01.2022 Sonya getting into some deadlifts after having some chronic lower back issues - finally pain free and moving well. We have some slight bar path issues but overall moving well. Progressing to functional movements is one of the overreaching goals for all my clients. Once they have the ability to safely perform the movement or part of it, we make sure to not hesitate as the benefits of functional strength training far out weighs delaying it or most other alternatives available. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #strength #training #lift #lifting #fixit #healthypops #exercisespecalist #teameffort #weightlifting #crossfit #bodybuilding #powerlifting #canberra #fit #fitness #movementtherapy #personaltraining #exercise #health #hips #gym #workout #clublime

01.01.2022 Are multiple professionals needed when achieving a goal? Sometimes, depends on the goal. ____________________________________________ Should the expected process be followed when trying to achieve that goal? Sometimes... ____________________________________________ I believe in results and science driven training. This goes for my own training and all my clients. ____________________________________________ If someone is able to stay within there legal scope of practice and help you achieve a goal then they are probably really good at what they do. Interchanging of professionals is sometimes very necessary, but also sometimes very redundant. This applies to all health and fitness related goals. ____________________________________________ Results speak louder than a piece of paper or words. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- #fitness #fit #sport #athlete #canberra #australia #training #exercise #rehab #strength #coach #lifting #gym #crossfit #powerlifting #bodybuilding #personaltrainer #movement #therapy #fitfam #clublime #PFT #health #active #motivation #lift #training #work #workout #train #fitfam
