Afraid of the Rower? I was...

The rower is hands down one of the best pieces of equipment in improving our cardiovascular capacity... but are you using it right? I know I wasn’t at first. So stop Karate chopping yourself and let’s work on it!

Send your videos or book an appointment to be coached through it! One session will transform you into looking like a pro. Let’s Get FITTER!!!

Our cue; Follow the steps: (Legs/Hips/Arms)
Leg drive - Hinge the Hips - Pull the arms ...
Then ↩️ (reverse) on the way back

Trouble with Reaching or Overhead Movements?

Shoulders are complex and a literal pain to deal with. Tightened muscular & surrounding structures of the shoulder can lead to impingement & rotator cuff tearing. We’ve had our fair share of injuries so we feel you.

If you’re not happy with the way your shoulder feels don’t hesitate to “reach out”, we’d love to help.

Special thanks to our homie .fitness for being our model this video. If you find yourself stuck in the quarantine bubble check out her page for some great no equipment workouts to get your sweat on!

How NOT to Ride a Bike

Stop riding equipment like it’s a mongoose with baseball cards in the spokes! Over time improperly setting up your bike can lead to hip flexor, patellar, & hamstring tendinitis. On top of that it will significantly reduce your overall performance.

If you have questions on what the proper bike set-up is for you, reach out! Stay Fit out there!

What Does Your Plate Look Like?

Balancing food is essential for everyone’s health. Even just becoming conscientious of what our plates look like during meals can cause HUGE improvements.

If you have any questions regarding the foods you’re consuming or need guidance, reach out! Till next time Fitter Friends 💪🏽

• How to Deadlift •

Deadlifting is an extremely effective exercise in building strength & power when done correctly. It also teaches us how to properly use our core when lifting objects like our children, groceries, furniture, boxes… the list goes on. That being said, it’s worth our time to figure out how to properly preform the movement.

Reach out if you’re having trouble with your deadlift, just starting out, or have any additional questions. Let’s move people!

Deadlifting... is it Good or Bad for you?

The age old question... should I be Deadlifting? The answer is YES! As humans we do variations of the deadlift all the time. That being said it only makes sense to practice & improve our mechanics to make the movement safe & effective for ourselves.

Let us know if you have trouble bending or want to increase your pull!

We hope everyone’s week is full of learning, potential, & positivity ✌🏽

H20!!!

Water is essential for life! Adequate hydration improves digestion, athletic performance, regulates appetite, & keeps organs functioning optimally.

Let us know what your hydration habits look like to see if you’re taking in the H20 you need! And as always, stay fit friends!

Ahh the ol’ Squat. Squatting is one of the most natural movements we do as children, however as we age it tends to be a little tougher. Here are some tricks to get you back out of the chair or out from under the barbell more efficiently.

Take a video & show us what your squat looks like! Stay fit friends!

Having hip, knee, or foot pain when taking the stairs, running, or squatting? Could be from weak GLUTES! Try this Lateral Step Down test at home and see what your mechanics look like.

Feel free to send us your videos to analyze, contact us, or ask any questions!
And as always, stay fit friends!
