Brett adding 7kg to his previous deadlift PR! This guy's been consistent and it's paying off. Way to go man! 💪

From never having picked up a barbell before and starting at 65lbs on day one, this is Laura's PR so far of 123 lbs. Lots of improvement in a few months. Excellent work💪. Consistency is the most important factor in progress and has been that. Going for a new PR soon.

Hip impingement pain had been limiting Brett's squat depth. Had to do box squats with limited ROM for months. But with some PT and careful programming He's now able to hit depth on these front squats. Don't let pain or setbacks discourage you or limit you. More often than not there is a solution. Stay the course and trust the process.

Look at this beast. Rachel with an over double bodyweight PR at 240 lbs! 💪🏋️‍♀️

Front Foot elevated lunges are a great accessory leg exercise to blast your glutes. The increased depth allows for more activation of your gluteal group and generally the elevated foot can take some pressure off of the knee. Try adding these to your routine! .gram

The ladies have really been involved in some friendly (I think 😬) competition and have been pushing each other, it's been awesome. So many personal bests. Here with 145, with 135, with 150 and with a stunning 150.5!!!

First day August 4th 2020 and one year later. Technically, yesterday she did sets of three with plus 12.5 lbs but I forgot to film it😳. So that video is from last week🤷

Sandy hitting a new squat PR at 105kg (231lbs) Pre- Covid squat PR was 200 lbs. Looked pretty easy. Maybe 250 should be the next benchmark🤔? What do you think ??

Danielle working on her push press on this . Not perfect but getting better each time! .gram

Never forget when pushed the sled

Brothers Jacob and Jack are in sync!

I like to program in these paused deadlifts every once in awhile for two reasons. One, to go a little bit lighter since Brett has been deadlifting pretty heavy past few weeks, and two, doing the brief pause helps reinforce the proper mechanics and neuromuscular coordination of keeping that tight lower back position on the initial pull.

After only being back in the gym for a couple of months after a torn Achilles Claire was able to reach a new bench PR at 140! Nice job

•

•

Kate suffered a torn labrum in her hip a while back. She's been having trouble with pain on certain movements, so we've made adaptations and are focusing on the strength and imbalance in her hips by performing unilateral exercises such as this single leg deadlift.

This is a fun one. Plank Stability challenge. Adrianne kept the ball on there for 5:45... Can you beat her?

First time EVER pulling a barbell! Not too shabby 👍👍

Sandy adding 20 lbs to her deadlift PR! Up to 270lbs (123kg) Noice Sandy!!

220lb trap bar PR crushing her last trap PR of 178.

This is the most Sandy's has done for push presses for weight (95 lbs) and multiple sets of two. Looks like she still has a lot in the tank too.

Brandon filling up the bar. An easy 190kg 419lbs) PR.

That time of the year to start taking workouts outside!

First hundo squat. Looked easy.

Haven't posted in a while, but back in action today... So here's Rose doing some reverse lunges this morning.

•
•
•

Generally when programming a client's strength routine I have them do 1-3 main lifts (e.g. squat, bench, deadlift, etc) per day followed by some accessory exercises. Today I had Brett doing some single leg ball slams which benefit core power, balance, and stability in the hip knee and ankle joints.

•

Danielle using some box squats the other day to put a little more emphasis on the hips and glutes. She doesn't have any knee issues, but these can be a good solution to mitigate knee discomfort if you have any during traditional squats.
