Prior to yesterday's volume squats, I spent approximately 10mins on the foam roller actively rolling over the areas I felt that needed some work. It's a modality I should implement more often and for a longer period of time also. - @optimumnutrition #optimumnutrition @adidas #adidas

Just some of the movements I used in today's heavy back and biceps (pull) session. Today's focus was on horizontal movements aka rowing movements but I do include a couple of supersets so I can add some vertical movements into the session also. On this day I also start with barbell conventional deadlifts. - @gymshark #gymshark @adidas #adidas

Concentric and eccentric portions of just some of the push movements I hit today. I added a couple of different movements into today's session with some heavy barbell incline bench press and some dumbbell flat bench press all fitting into the hypertrophy bench press session previously planned. - Videos to follow 👍💪 - @bulkpowders_uk #bulkpowders @gymshark #gymshark @adidas #adidas @nike #nike #flyknit

It's been a hot minute since my last post it seems!! Here are just some of the static stretches/ yoga poses I held post workout whilst sipping on a protein shake. - As you can probably guess, it was a lower body day so I gave my glutes, hams, quads, hips, adductors, lumbar spine a chance to stretch out for 10-15s twice each. - It's definitely a component many of us neglect due to time commitments etc but if we were smart enough to manage our time slightly better, we could all benefit greatly! - @bulkpowders_uk #bulkpowders #performancedelivered

Had an issue with the focus on my #samsungnx2000 today whilst squatting. Makes for a pretty nice teaser though for what's to come, shame nearly every repetition became blurry 🙈. - @samsungcamera @adidas #adipowers @matrixnutritionuk #matrix @bulkpowders_uk #bulkpowders @gymshark #gymshark @sbdapparel #sbd

#Repost @yuckylavado with @repostapp. ・・・ Our generation has fallen victim to the most powerful drug of all time. For me, I see the addiction as inevitable. Its how our society interacts, and whether I like it or not I have to make the best of it. Luckily, social media CAN be utilized as a positive, beneficial drug... despite its vastly dominant corrupt effect on our society. That is my focus as an entrepreneur in this era... to not only use this global addiction to benefit the lives of others & provide a meaningful, comfortable life for myself... but to inspire others to take the same path and help the people in their circle. Accept the addiction, but use it wisely to look beyond your own benefit & elevate to the level of influencing others in a powerful, positive way. If you can achieve this, your personal success will take care of itself.. for integrity and passion always prevails. Trust me. As you use these platforms to benefit our society... remember to save a good fraction of your life to spend it with the most valuable people in your life. Seek to have the experiences that make you forget you even have a phone. If you can manage everything mentioned above, you'll be set. #socialmediageneration #socialmediadrug #drugsarenotalldetrimental #theywerecreatedtobebeneficial #letsbeintelligentandimproveourlivesthroughimprovingthelivesofothers #foodforthought

This morning was spent watching the remainder of Federer vs Djokovic going at it @australianopen tennis whilst cooking breakfast, preparing some steak for lunch, and some pasta for after coaching this evening. Time wasn't a worry for me as I was watching the tennis! - Now off for a lovely second legs session of the week 🏋💪 - #atp #babolat #wilson #head #tennis #australianopen #grandslam #australia

Been adding some light cardio into my sessions this week and first impression is only positive. - Today was a Back and Biceps (Pull) day so the use of the rower was preferred due to the motion and muscles it was warming up. I supersetted a minute of rowing at a heart rate zone of 1 or 2 (light intensity 50-70% of HRmax) with 10reps of a bodyweight pull up variation on a waist height horizontal bar with my body directly underneath the bar to emphasise the pull up movement rather than a row motion. I completed 10 rounds with the rest time being the walk from the rower to the horizontal bar and back. - This is a great way to work primarily on promoting fat metabolism as the heart rate is relatively low when utilising the cardio machine, and adding more volume into the targeted muscles of the latissimus dorsi, rhomboids, trapezius, teres major, with some biceps activation also when using the pull up. Furthermore, it's also a great way to start getting the fundamental motor control of the pull up motion itself. - Give it a go and let me know how you find it!
