This is one of my favorite movements to reset the upper back and shoulders.
⠀
Make sure to set the edge of the bench slightly above the bottom of the sternum. Let the weights travel away from the bench (heck of a rhomboid stretch!).
⠀
Give it a shot.

Here is a simple program I have used personally over the last few weeks (also with some in person clients).
⠀
This program is basically an A & B rotating total body workout that alternates the big movement patterns. It’s perfect for people who are busy with work, family and careers and need 30-45 minute sessions 2-4x per week but also need flexibility on training days.
⠀
I tend to pick a focal lift for 2-4 weeks and vary the other exercises around that. All reps are between 5-15 and the circuit is performed 4-5 sets with about :40 seconds transition between exercises.
⠀
I also add 20-30 minute Assault Bike rides in for cardiovascular health.

I spent my teens and early twenties trying to Bench Press my way to a bigger chest. I lived in 5X5 land for several years and got pretty strong but no significant size.
⠀
Here’s what I failed to realize back then:
⠀
1. The bench press is primarily a triceps and shoulder builder.
⠀
2. Straight bar benching does not provide enough “stretch” due to the internal rotation position.
⠀
3. Too much “fixed position scap” pressing will eventually cause shoulder pain
⠀
So what’s the answer?
⠀
✅ High Frequency Training
✅ High Volume Training (pushups & rings)
✅ Neutral or Slight Externally Positions
⠀
*not all at once but varied

⠀
Show up and often.
⠀
If you want to achieve, you have to be consistent. This applies to life skills, training, careers and relationships.
⠀
There’s nothing wrong with high intensity but chronic high intensity leads to burnout and failure. Pick your spots.

Set a goal and see it until the end.
⠀
Eliminate excuses to miss workouts.
⠀
Follow through with a program.
⠀
Pick an exercise and build it for a few weeks.
⠀
If you’re not 100% then modify the training and don’t miss a session.

⠀
T-Bell is a game changer for squats and RDLs. This device is a must have for any home gym or equipment bag.
⠀
There are tons of benefits for this device such as:
⠀
1️⃣ Heavier loading than Goblet Squats for women to increase demand of the quads and glutes.
⠀
2️⃣ The position of the arms creates great stiffness that gives the spine stability and the ability to increase range of motion through the hips.
⠀
3️⃣ Adjustable handle pins to allow progress through deeper ranges of motion instead of increasing load.
⠀
4️⃣ The position is a true squat and eliminates significant hip hinging through the squat movement
⠀
There are several other great movements the T-Bell can be used for such as RDLs and bent over rows.
⠀
Check out to grab one (I have zero affiliation just love the product).

⠀
As much as I love the barbell, there’s no denying the massive benefits of single-leg training.
⠀
A complete program should include force vectors (google it) from many angles. This is critical for joint health and pain-free training.
⠀
While the total loading is less than the barbell, often when the loading from each side is totaled up compared to its bilateral equivalent (2-leg) the total loading is more.
⠀
There are tons of variations available in the “squat and hinge” categories. Here are some additional modifications for variety and structure:
⠀
✅ Front Foot Elevated
✅ “Neutral”
✅ Rear Foot Elevated
✅ 1-DB/KB Contralateral & Ipsilateral Loading
✅ KB and Sandbag/Sandstone Loading
✅ Foot Pressure & Shin Angles

𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗴𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗢𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗹𝗼𝗮𝗱
⠀
This is the most basic principle of training and most get it wrong. Unless you have been training consistently for over 3 years (and I mean a rock solid 3 years) you need to use repeatable workouts.
⠀
Repeatable workouts are highly measurable. If you switch exercises and methods every week, how do you know what works?
⠀
When it comes to general fitness or novice athletes I train I use the simple model in the graphic. It’s not sexy but it’s highly effective.
⠀
If your new to training, select a group of exercises and train them for 3-5 weeks under this progression model then switch out to new variations and repeat.

❗️𝗛𝗶𝗽 𝗧𝗵𝗿𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗣𝗥 ❗️
⠀
The Hip Thrust has become popular in some circles of fitness but it needs more love.
⠀
I have never seen anyone injured on this exercise. Years ago, at a conference I asked an industry leading coach his thoughts and he hated it and claimed it was disastrous. WRONG.
⠀
Men and women should regularly program Hip Thrust in their programs. It’s a great alternative for people that struggle with barbell deadlifts.
⠀
The biggest issues I see with people who use this exercise is too heavy with loading, not achieving full hip extension, and throwing the head back.

Most people assume a “good workout” will get them closer to their goals. They base this off an emotional connection of “I like this training style/method.” Just because it feels good doesn’t mean it actually moves them closer to the goal.
⠀
You need to understand what the standards are in relation to your goals. Simply put, what are commonalities of people who have achieved the goal you desire?
⠀
Every program I write is based off of the individual’s goal and what standards are required to achieve them. This gives the athlete a “final destination” for each program or phase of training or life.
⠀
𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗮𝗿𝗱𝘀 𝗱𝗿𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀.
⠀
Each individual will be aiming for different standards related to strength, body composition and sports performance.
⠀
Standards show you the path forward and decrease the risk of straying from the goal and ultimately failure.
