Your core doesn’t need more crunches. It needs more control. Adding instability can make an exercise more demanding—but it doesn’t automatically mean your “deep core” is working harder or that the workout is better. The bigger takeaway: slow reps, controlled breathing, and resisting unwanted movement are what make core... show more

Full range strict pressing I see less and less of. More people should try it. Good for your shoulder health. And for “Powerbuilding” it’s a perfect movement . Combo of functional strength and decent hypertrophy movement. Did them yesterday for first time in about a year (?). Kind of a shit show due to time away, diet, and getting sick but felt okay. Strict press 3 x 7-10 (descending sets) Cable side Delt 3 x 8-12 Cable rear Delt 3 x 8-15 Legend Shrugs 3 x 6-10

5 exercises for beginners to get your L-sit: 1. 10 reps: Work on leg raises. Take your time and focus on activating your hip flexors, core, and quads. 2. Same movement, but make it more challenging. Have fun playing with height. 3. 10 reps: Work on compression. This exercise will help your mobility and core strength a lot. 4. 8 to 10 reps: Focus more on the upper body, and build strong shoulder protraction and core compression. 5. As many reps as you can: Start feeling your full body weight. At this point, you are so close to your L-sit.

The biggest leak in many people's postures is the rear muscles of the legs. They should be powerful, but long-seated days drain their strength and leave you without vital support. These 4 exercises will patch the leak. Do one 2x/week and watch your posture rise again: 1 - Lying Hyperextension (0:05) 3 x 8-10 This variation is a great place to start. - Lying on your stomach. - Lift both legs off the floor as high as possible without swinging. - Hold for 3 seconds at the top 2 - Bench Hyperextension (0:12) 3 x 8-10 This variation is great because you get a better stretch than on the floor. You can use the end of a couch or the corner of your bed instead of a bench. 3 - Bench Frog Hyperextension (0:18) 3 x 8-10 The Frog variation has both of your feet flat against each other. This position changes how your muscles execute the motion. Your glutes and hamstrings work more intensely. 4 - Weighted Bench Hyperextensions (0:24) 3 x 8-10 Add weight once you are comfortable enough to do full sets of the bodyweight variation. You'll get much better results. Your glutes and hamstrings will respond kindly and provide more postural support. // Keeping your Glutes and Hamstrings strong is essential to withstand the 21st century. Use the exercises above to protect your posture and quality of life.

People with weak cores struggle to stabilize their bodies when they walk. Every step you take sends a little punch up your leg into your hip and lower back. Planks with one or more support points removed to expose this weakness. Use these 12 exercises to strengthen your core: 1 - Bird-Dog (0:06) 3 x 10/side Beginners start with this exercise because removing two support points with your knees on the floor is easier. The goal is to straighten the opposing arm and leg. A client wobbled when she removed her two support points today, which humbled her. 2 - Front Plank with Leg Lift, Elbows (0:15) 3 x 10/side The second plank involves lifting one leg at a time. Being on your elbows is easier than your straightened arms, so I'll first have people familiarize themselves with this position. Lift your leg as high as you can without swinging too much. Hold at the top for a few seconds to increase the burn. 3 - Front Plank with Arm/Leg Lift, Elbows (0:20) 3 x 10 The third plank resembles the Bird Dog, except your knees are off the floor. Straighten the opposite arm and leg at the same time, and hold. You might struggle to reach a full lengthening, so do your best and practice. Removing one hand off the floor also strengthens your shoulder blade muscles. 4 - Front Rotation Plank, Elbows (0:28) 3 x 10/side The fourth plank engages different abdominal muscles with the rotation. Your arms should point toward the ceiling, something beginners might initially struggle with. 5 - Push-Up Plank (0:34) 3 x 10 The fifth plank is excellent for building upper body strength at home. You are bound to break a sweat and work your chest and triceps. I've had many clients struggle to do more than one rep. 6 - Spider Plank, Elbows (1:01) 3 x 10/side The sixth plank improves your hip mobility as well. You want to open the leg and bring your knee to hip level while keeping in the air. 7 - Lateral Raise Plank (1:09) 3 x 10-20/side The seventh plank is done in a push-up position with your arms straight. There is now more weight on your arms, making it harder to stabilize when you remove a support point. My client tried this variation and had to regress to the Bird Dog because she couldn't support herself. Work your way up to 20 reps/side for extra posture gains. 8 - Toe Taps, Straight Arms (1:22) 3 x 10/side The eight plank has you lifting one leg toward one side and touching the floor with your toes. The contact is brief - You're tapping, not resting. 9 - Mountain Climbers with Twist (1:29) 3 x 10/side The ninth plank is a twist on the classic mountain climbers exercise. You lift one leg and bring it toward the opposite elbow, then repeat on the other side. Increase the speed to add a cardio component, but ensure you can first go through the full range of motion. 10 - Arm/Leg Lift Plank, Straight Arms (1:42) 3 x 10 The tenth plank is the final evolution of the Bird Dog in this series. Straighten your opposite arm and leg, and hold for a few seconds to increase the burn. You can also hold the lengthened position for an extended period, like 30 to 60 seconds. 11 - Plank Jacks (1:54) 3 x 30-60s The eleventh plank is a variation of the classic Jumping Jack. This dynamic exercise adds a cardio component to your core workout. Shuffle both feet toward the side, then jump back to the starting position, Ensure you keep your hips aligned with your head and shoulders. You want to avoid your lower back crashing below them and potentially hurting yourself. 12 - Knee to Elbow Plank, Straight Arms (2:01) 3 x 10/side This series's twelfth and final plank requires the most stability and mobility. Most people are unable to reach their knee to the elbow. Enjoy practicing this one; you will feel stronger after three full sets. // Planks with one or more support points removed are excellent for building a more stable posture when you move. They can be done anywhere with enough space. Progress through the twelve variations in this series and watch how your core strength improves. Enjoy!

As I told you guys the other day: If you do 3 sets of an exercise and it goes in your log book as 10, 10, 10 or 8, 8, 8 or 12, 12, 12… That is a MASSIVE RED FLAG In almost every instance in which this occurs, the individual is NOT training anywhere NEAR as hard as they SHOULD

If you want to actually train your Chest as efficiently/effectively as possible instead of WASTING YOUR TIME…. I’d recommend doing something like this each week: Upper A - Incline (Clavicular Pecs) Machine Press x 2-3 Sets - Pec Fly Machine x 2-3 Sets Upper B (Performed 3-4 days after Upper A) - Flat/Seated (Sternal Pecs) Machine Press x 2-3 Sets - Seated Low to High Cable Flys x 2-3 Sets This will result in you doing somewhere between 8-12 sets of direct Chest work per week Low likelihood you need any more volume than that to improve your Chest mightily if following the notes below: 1) The ideal rep range to be using when performing the exercises mentioned is the 5ish to 10ish rep range — Choose a weight you can do for 5, 6, 7 reps @ 0-2 RIR…once you can do that weight for 8, 9, 10ish reps, increase the load by 5ish pounds 2) You should perform all reps of all the listed exercises with a controlled (but not overly slow) eccentric and an explosive (but still controlled) concentric 3) You should perform these exercises very early in your workout to ensure they are as efficient/effective as possible — If you perform them later on, you will not get as robust a growth stimulus from the sets because of the outstanding fatigue that will be present from the earlier sets/exercises in your workout Additional notes: - You may sub any of these exercises for comparable exercises due to preferences and/or equipment availability — Ex: Flat/Seated Machine Press subbed for Flat Smith Machine Bench Press or Flat Barbell Bench Press - I probably forgot something that I should’ve mentioned…if I think of it I’ll drop it in the post below

Stop training your core like your spine is disposable. Crunches and sit-ups get all the attention, but they repeatedly flex the lumbar spine under load — not ideal if your back is sensitive. Side planks are different. They train your core to do what it’s actually built to do: 1. resist unwanted movement 2. stabilize your spine 3. support your pelvis 4. strengthen your obliques and quadratus lumborum 5. activate your glute medius 6. improve balance and postural control And they do all of this with minimal spinal flexion. That makes them a more spine-sparing option for many people compared with traditional crunches. The best part? You can scale them easily. 1. Start with knees bent. 2. Hold for 10–20 seconds. 3. Keep your ribs stacked over your pelvis. 4. Breathe. 5. Progress only when you can hold clean form. Your core is not just for looking strong. It’s for keeping your spine, hips, and pelvis working together. CTA: Try 2–3 short side plank holds per side today and notice which side feels weaker.

People today walk around with the stiffest hips, and the implications are disastrous. You set yourself up for chronic pain and bad posture for the rest of your life. Take control now before it's too late. These 10 stretches will free your hips from their misery: The best time to do these stretches is before bed, as you unload all the tension accumulated throughout the day and achieve a deeper sleep. 1 - Half Frog Stretch (0:06) 3 x 30-60s/side This one is excellent for your inner thighs and hip flexors. You also stretch your abdominals. 2 - Seated Crossed Leg Reach Forward Stretch (0:14) 3 x 30-60s This stretch also hits the lats that sit right above your hips. Some of you may be unable to reach forward with your legs crossed. The first milestone is to touch the floor with your hands and then slide them forward. 3 - Seated Pigeon Stretch (0:23) 3 x 30-60s/leg Today, one of my clients felt a massive pull just by crossing his leg and pushing down. Forget leaning forward! The goal is to bring your chest down to your leg while keeping your back straight. Push your hips back toward the wall behind you to lower your torso. 4 - Seated Glute Strech (0:32) 3 x 30-60s/leg The difference between this stretch and the Seated Pigeon is that you curl your upper back to lower your head to your leg. 5 - Lying Glute Stretch (0:43) 3 x 30-60s/leg Lying on your back with one leg crossed. Pull the other leg toward your chest and hold. 6 - Pigeon Stretch (0:52) 3 x 30-60s/leg This stretch never fails to open my clients' hips, though many will feel enough of a pull by simply crossing one leg. The goal is to reach forward and lower your torso parallel to the floor. 7 - Glute Bridge with External Rotation (1:00) 3 x 10-12/leg This one is great because you strengthen one leg and stretch the other. Due to a lack of strength or mobility, you might have to rotate with a bent leg before moving onto a straightened one. 8 - Frog Stretch (1:05) 3 x 30-60s The frog stretch is amazing for your inner thigh muscles. Start kneeling with your elbows on the floor and your feet pointing outward. Slide backward and hold. 9 - Crossed-Leg Glute Bridge (1:14) 3 x 30-60s/leg Here is another Glute Bridge variation where you strengthen one leg and stretch the other. You feel the hip opening up at the top, so hold it there and rotate your knee away from your body to increase the pull. 10 - V Stretch (1:23) 3 x 30-60s You can do this stretch with your legs up in the air or against a wall. // Start taking care of your hips now before they turn into stone. Reversing the stiffness becomes much more painful and takes much longer if you let it fester over the years. You'll feel much more relaxed and move smoother once you eliminate all the excess pressure.
