Why You Suck at Squats

212 Team

August 15, 2012

After informing a client of their impending doom, (simply told her about her training regimen for the session), her reply was, "Oh I suck at squats! I hate them!" My retort was, "tell me WHY you feel they SUCK?"

The Game Plan

What we put in our bodies will determine the results in what we see. As some of you know, I have been trying to start "distance" running a little bit. It has been a bit of a challenge so far because I am built for speed and power, NOT distance.

Stop Stretching Your Back!

It may be apparent to some of you that I have many current clients and athletes that I coach and train with back issues. Some have chronic pain due to injuries and some that have had spinal surgery.

As many of you already know, we have been running a contest, of sorts, to encourage attendance at the gym over the summer. Well, I guess it is more of an incentive program really. There are no "winners" or "losers," only attendance benchmarks or goals for clients to strive for.

Get Out of the Way

Did you ever have a time where you wanted to help someone, but they wouldn't let you? I went to a cookout at a friend's house, and one of his friends knew that I owned a gym. We got into a discussion about him wanting to lose weight. I answered some of his questions and gave him some advice.

In my first installment, we tackled the Farmer's Walk exercise. The simplicity of picking up heaps of weighted objects and carrying them at distance, yet with a purpose! This exercise has been around for a millennia, or longer..heh, much longer.

My inner competitor is all fired up over this "get to the gym and win stuff" challenge. I love it! Who knew that such a simple sounding challenge could have this kind of mental effect? These 212 folks are so smahht.

I am off the beam. I need to "get my head right." Can't quite say what brought me here...but I come here often--just out of the groove of getting to the gym, and then finding it difficult to eat right and get back on track.

I feel everyone should get out of their comfort zone every once in a while, if not more often. I believe that is where growth happens. You truly learn a lot about yourself when you are in an uncomfortable situation.

After a brief break from the gym and training to welcome my daughter into the world this past week, I have had little time to reflect. With everything going so fast I was fortunate enough to start to implement a nice new IFLIP camera- a toy some of my clients had graciously donated, so I could start to capture the amazing first moments of my first born's life.
