22.01.2022 To many the gym is so much more than just having killer abs, or defined arms. For some, its about having an outlet. A place where you can go and switch off for an hour or so, and focus on yourself. ... A place where you can clear your head and sweat out your frustrations. Its where you can break yourself down so you can build yourself back up. You may be struggling right now and feel like giving up. I dont know how long this will last, but one thing I do know is tough times are temporary, and they never last forever. Big love See more
22.01.2022 Following on from yesterday’s post, you don’t need a heavy barbell to challenge the glutes during hip thrusts. In this video she’s using a 20 kilo kettlebell along with these 3 techniques: . Double up your mini bands: One mini band above, and one below the knees. They’re not there for looks; make sure you’re actively pushing out against the bands on the way up, AND on the way down.... . One and 1/4 reps: Perform a full hip thrust, untuck the hips and lower 1/4 of the way, then thrust back up. That’s one rep. . Slow down the eccentric: In any exercise, you’re always stronger on the lowering stage of the rep; use that to your advantage by taking 3-5 seconds to lower the weight. Combining all 3 techniques will increase the time under tension, and intensity of the tension, so that you don’t need a heavy barbell to benefit. See more
21.01.2022 If you want to get more out of your bands, you can throw in a quarter rep like Im doing here with seated leg curls.

19.01.2022 Ive written many articles for Womens Health & Fitness magazine over the years, and by far, this is my favourite one.

The magazine isnt on sale anymore, however, they have uploaded the article to their website for free. So if you would like to learn the system then click the link Ive left in the comment section.

12.01.2022 Got some junky beaten up quads? Try this!
12.01.2022 Only have a couple of kettlebells at home whilst in isolation? Try this! Double high pull x 5 Double snatch x 5 Double military press x 5... Double front squat x 5 Double swing x 5 Double clean x 5 See saw press x 5 Do 3-5 sets with 2-4 minutes rest in between sets This is known as a kettlebell complex. A complex is a series of exercises performed one after the other with the same weight and without rest. Its a fantastic way to place the body under a serious amount of time under tension whilst still managing fatigue. Good luck

09.01.2022 $3,069 raised for Wildlife Victoria! #thankyou
09.01.2022 If you want to deadlift more, you need to deadlift more. This is what I told a girl who lifts during a coaching call the other day. You see, for quite some time, her goal has been to hit the 100 kilo deadlift club, but things just havent been progressing.... So I asked her what her program looked like, and she hit me back with a massive laundry list: Rack pulls, good mornings, box squats, hip thrust, kickbacks, glute bridges, lunges, leg press, glute ham raises, leg curl. Theres your problem, I said. Youre simply doing far too many exercises, and its taking your recovery and focus away from your main objective.... getting stronger in the DEADLIFT! Have 2-3 assistant exercises for symmetry and to bring up lagging body parts, but thats all you need. The goal is NOT to get stronger in every single lower body exercise ever invented. Oh by the way, if you want to build your Big 3 (squat, bench and deadlift) strength... ... you might like my 12 months of strength training programs to use so you can walk into the gym with a sense of purpose and structure. Im offering them at 91% discount and donating 100% of the money to Wildlife Victoria. Im pulling the link down this Friday the 31st because I want to get the money to them ASAP. You can get them at the link Ive left in the comment section on this video.

08.01.2022 Struggling to Build Muscle?!
08.01.2022 First she just wanted to deadlift 100 kilos for 1 rep. Now she plays with 130kg for 3 reps. When you have purpose, structure and patience, this is what’s achievable.... I’m currently looking for 3 people to work with and help hit their first 100 kilo deadlift in 2021. You must: 1. Be able to currently deadlift 70 kilos or more. 2. Can get to the gym 3-4 times per week. 3. You’re friendly and coachable. If that’s you, message me the words ‘100 club’, and I’ll get you all the deets.
07.01.2022 ? ! I discovered this fantastic exercise from Andrew Lock; it hits your rhomboids and mid/lower traps. Ive found it to be a great way to hit the mid back without getting the biceps involved, which is a common problem with most rowing exercises.... I like these for medium to high reps (10-20 reps) for 2-5 sets. Ensure that you hold the rep for a sec, or two. Enjoy! See more
07.01.2022 ? ’ : ! 1. The band provides constant horizontal resistance; you cannot get this from dumbbells. ... 2. With this variation, as you get to the stretched position, the band tension is lightened, as opposed to dumbbells where it’s at its heaviest. 3. The band tension kicks in when the pec is shortened; you cannot achieve this with dumbbells. If you’ve always skipped flyes because they just never felt right, you might like this variation. Enjoy!

06.01.2022 Heres a cool bodyweight hamstring exercise for your at home workouts
06.01.2022 Youre doing front foot elevated split squats wrong!
05.01.2022 . A great exercise to prime / activate / wake up (whatever you want to call it) the shoulder stabilisers. Also, due to the instability, it teaches you how to stay tight the entire time when pressing, which can help with preventing typical shoulder injuries associated with benching.
05.01.2022 Want to spice up your training? Do this! Here youll see me using a fat grip speciality bar. Due to the large diameter of the bar, it challenges the grip, along with many other benefits, and as a result you cannot go as heavy but the intensity still remains high, if not greater!... But Grant, my gym doesnt have thick specialty bars! I got you, go to the comment section on this video, and watch part 2 that Ive left there.
04.01.2022 Im being bullied at the gym
04.01.2022 If you’re doing iso workouts, and have little equipment, this is how you can make the squat harder. So what you’re going to do is grab the strongest band you have, and hook it up to something sturdy. Then jump into the band, and get it behind your knees. From here, pick up your kettlebell or dumbbell, and get it under your chin. Walk back until you have a bit of tension on the band, but not too much where it’s going to sweep you off your feet. ... Then, you’re going goblet / sissy squat. The reason why this is so much harder than your traditional goblet squat is because now along with the vertical resistance from the bell, you also have to work against horizontal resistance coming from the band. You see, your quads have to work so much harder to get you into knee extension. So if you’re limited with equipment, and you want your squat to be more of challenge without having to do lots of reps, give this one a go. I think you’ll like it. See more
04.01.2022 How to trash your back with a resistance band... Perform this sequence: 1a. One arm band pull over... 1b. One arm half kneeling band row Pre-fatigue the back with an isolation exercise (the weaker movement) before you go into the compound exercise (the stronger movement). This works great if you dont have a very strong resistance band. Enjoy See more
