24.01.2022 Do you even rotate bro... Awesome explanation from a switched on bloke, making positive change to the fitness industry. https://youtu.be/f5CmqpybODk

21.01.2022 2 variations of a Hip hinge, primarily working the glutes (butt muscles) Left view (kettlebell swings)... Right view (Dumbell pendulum swings) In my opinion dumbells do feel smoother, body in better position, shoulders don't internally rotate as with kettlebells, less shoulder irritation l find. Dumbells challenges more of the body, as you need to challenge stability aswell. Try for yourself.

21.01.2022 Garage all set up for quarantine training. Got my boxing bag to smash around. Good cardio. Set the intival timer for 3 min rounds, 30 sec rest between, aiming for 8-10 rounds You don't have to be a pro, just get out and smash it

20.01.2022 With all this free time l have, why not share my workouts have turned into, do what l feel like on the day. Connecting the entire body in movement, not isolation. Works for me. No set times just do what l feel. functionalpatterns

17.01.2022 When are gyms opening l want life back to the norm. I am definitely missing you guys and girls that are part of Primal Connect I hope you are all are keeping active & mentally sane. I have been working on movements that can be improved on, always aiming for perfection lots to do but love the process. Some times it's hard to get out and keep the level of fitness we all had prior to Covid.... Let's do our best to keep up the good work We will be back soon enough, stronger than ever my friends.

17.01.2022 This one is going to take some work. It's challenging & rewarding, learning new exercises. Credit goes to functionalpatterns Exercise is more achievable to me when l just move, l don't follow strict routines as such. Learning these types of exercises takes the pain away before you know it l have worked out hard, worked up a sweat & got them endorphins (happy pills) kicking in ... Job done... See more

16.01.2022 Have you got a foam roller If you haven't, do yourself a favour and purchase one. The overall benifits has to be tried to be believed. Release muscle tension. Reduce aches and pains.... Great for pre and post workouts, (warm ups and cool downs) Reduce DOMS ( delayed onset muscle soreness, from hours to days after strenuous activity) Increase blood flow. Reduce injuries. Great for those that don't even exercise, but would like to reduce pain and discomfort in muscles. relaxing, helps in sleeping well. Alternative to some stretching routines. The list of benifits go on. Foam rolling is a great starting point to release & relax muscle tension, helping fix muscle imbalances, Its been a game changer for pain free movement, or at least decrease in pain It has made me aware of how my body was feeling, why l was sore, or muscles were tight, affecting especially my lower back in my case. I now can work out the muscle tensions before they become painful, restricting movement or even out of action.. "NO ONE WANTS TO BE OUT OF ACTION" Life is to short, why miss out on doing the things we love doing right ? Foam rolling in my opinion is the entry level to releasing muscle tension. It's easy to learn, has a larger surface area to work with. We then can utilise other tools, such as tennis balls, lacrosse balls, mini basketballs, PVC pipe, theracane etc. We then get into the real Myofascial release technique If you would like to know more, hit me up..

15.01.2022 Are you excited that gyms are opening back up June 22nd. Can't wait to see all your friendly faces, well maybe at the start of classes anyway. Let's see who has been training or not Don't stress, let's just get back into it, no matter what level your currently at. Have fun with the journey.

13.01.2022 Top exercise Bosu skaters Below dumbell alternating pendulum squat. Skaters work the glutes quite hard, definitely in my clients top 5 for overall development. It's a challenging 1.. Hip hinging and thoracic rotation leads to increased glute activation. Skaters can also be done without the bosu, body weight movement at its best, no equipment needed.... Pendulum squats another great hip hinge & Rotational movement, working your lower and upper body all in 1. Including core. (Abs) Give them a try. See more

13.01.2022 ROTATIONAL SIT & REACH Try this as a bodyweight movement, dumbells or as demonstrated, with a ball All great variations of an exercise that also incorporates the entire body in one motion. Hands down beats sit ups Caution don't throw the dumbells, press them instead, like you would with a shoulder press
