This is a prime example of what the last two reps of your final set should look like 👇 ✅ Her technique stays intact. She doesn't change the movement just to squeeze out more reps. ✅ The speed of the reps slows down, but her form doesn't break. ✅ She's actively pulling through her lats, feeling the right muscles move the weight Why is this so important? Because underloading is the #1 reason so many people end up feeling like they're spinning their wheels in the gym. We need to be training with a weight that actually elicits the adaptation we're looking for. Otherwise, we're just spinning our wheels

I love how Training makes me feel more at ease, especially after a session I feel like nothing can bring me down. As we progress through our training we slowly fade into a more resilient state. This is by far one of the more under appreciated components to getting stronger, mental resilience

If you’re not strength training, you’re going backwards. Your body only adapts to what you give it. If it’s not being challenged enough, it has no reason to keep up. Time is going to pass you by either way. Ignoring that reality and doing nothing about it is only going to prolong your pain.

The results come from doing the same basic movements with precision and consistency. Not from the trendy exercises you find on TikTok. Enjoying the training process matters, but enjoying the results of that training matters even more. And those results come from doing the basics with intent and showing up for them week after week.

Your body only knows the stimulus you give it. If you never jump, it forgets how. As you age, muscle power drops around 3.5% a year, more than double the rate of strength. Your fast-twitch fibres, the ones that react, jump, and catch you when you trip, are the first to go. 📉 Power is what gets you up the stairs, out of the chair, and back on your feet when the ground shifts. Train so you can handle the terrain of life. If you're over 50, you NEED to be training. Plyos included. This is why I make sure my performance program, “Performance Builder” locks in plyometric training on all training sessions. Microdosed throughout the week to keep you sharp and resilient.
