Don't always have to lift the heaviest weight. Making light weight feel heavy is a great way to stimulate muscle growth. Give these a go next time. One and a half rep curls. Feels good to be training regularly again. #gym #fitfam #gymlife #fitness #training #biceps #weighttraining #trainingtips #workouttips #fitnesstips

Concentrate on controlling the weight and not just throwing it around. It’s very common to see people curling from the shoulder. After a few strict sets I like to finish with some cheat reps to overload the muscle. You can do this by cheating the weight up a little with a bit of a swing, or using your free hand if you’re doing one arm at a time and then concentrate on controlling the eccentric (lowering) part of the exercise. #gym #gymlife #muscle #bodybuilding #fitness #health #bicep #exercise #fitfam #curls #workout #workoutadvice #motivation

Why stretching isn’t always the best way to deal with a tight muscle. A good example of where this happens frequently is in the lower fibres of the Traps and the Rhomboids. (Upper back) If I can help with anything or you’d like to book in for a massage, feel free to get in touch #muscle #performance #stretching #massage #sportsmassage #newcastle #fitness #health #performance #injuryprevention

Don't be afraid of using machines. They allow for isolation of the working muscle and can help reduce the risk of injury. Looking to start up sports massage again and to help get back in the swing of things, I'm offering a few completely free. So if you think you would benefit from a free sports massage, give me a direct message. Limited availability. #performance #shoulders #fitness #health #massage #newcastle #flexibility #gym #gymlife

Finishing off todays pull session with some bicep isolation work. Feels good to be getting back to the gym! #gym #exercise #biceps #arms #pullworkout #fitness #health #motivation #training

Very nervous talking on camera. Something I’m hoping to get better at though! #faceyourfear One of the many reasons I like training with bands. The same is true for exercises like bench and squats. Bands allow you to make the easier parts of the exercise much harder than they usually would be, allowing you to be challenged through the whole movement rather than just part. Try throwing a few band exercises into your training and see how you get on. As always, feel free to get in touch with any questions relating to training and nutrition. Massages are on hold for now but get in touch if you’d like to enquire about adding yourself to my waiting list! #training #workout #gains #gym #gymlife #bodybuilding #athletic #fit #fitfam #physique #Newcastle #personaltrainer #nervousoncamera #nutrition #armday
