Here is my latest email to my members!

I found myself coaching both Saturday classes on something I want you all to think about:

Do not chase reps. Chase perfection.

Don’t chase the number in your head. Don’t chase fatigue. Don’t chase “one more” just because you think you should.

Chase perfect technique.

When your technique starts to break down, that’s your signal. That’s when it’s time to rest.

This is one of the biggest differences between working out and training.

Training requires you to be present.

Every time you step up to a kettlebell, barbell, or even your own bodyweight, you need to be fully there. Fully connected. Fully aware.

Strength is not built through mindless reps.

It’s built through intentional reps.

That means creating tension, owning positions, breathing correctly, and moving with purpose.

The quality of your reps will always matter more than the quantity.

Perfect reps build strength.

Sloppy reps create problems.

And over time, those problems can manifest as injury.

This got me thinking about why I’m stronger at 53 than I’ve ever been.

It’s not because I do more.

It’s because I’ve spent years learning how to do things better.

I wrote about that in my latest blog post if you want to read more:

Please share if you know someone throwing themselves around mindlessly at the gym. ;)

Happy Training - Angela
