Men, this is important. Whether you’re following a gym programme inside the Alpha Clan or not, there’s one thing every single one of you should be doing. Stretching and mobility work. Here’s a simple test. 👉 Stand up, bend forward and try to touch your toes. Can’t reach them? That’s a good sign you’ve got some work to do on your flexibility. Whether you’re spending 10 hours on a building site or sitting in front of a computer all day, tight muscles and poor mobility can contribute to aches, pains and injuries. And the older we get, the more important it becomes to look after how our bodies move. You don’t need to spend an hour stretching. Just a few minutes every day can make a massive difference over time. 👇 Watch the video, give it a go and start making mobility part of your daily routine. Stay loose, fellas. Giddy up. 👊💪

Lads, if you’re struggling with your bench press, the problem might not be your technique. It could simply be where you’ve positioned the bench underneath the barbell. Set it up incorrectly and you’ll make unracking and reracking the bar harder than it needs to be, while putting unnecessary stress on your shoulders. 👇 Follow the video, fix your bench position and make your pressing safer and stronger. You can find plenty more videos like this inside the Alpha Lifting Library. Giddy up. 👊

Lads, it’s pretty clear that most of you are stiff as a board. You want to start lifting weights, but you’ve got zero mobility. That’s a surefire way to eventually pick up an injury. And if you get injured, you can’t train. If you can’t work, you can’t make money, and that makes Johnny a very dull boy. 😂 This is the joint mobility routine I do before every workout, but I also do it first thing in the morning to loosen everything up and get my body moving for the day. I’m encouraging you to start doing the same. Two minutes. That’s it. 👇 Follow along with the video and add it into your routine. Giddy up. 👊

Lads, the longer your lifting career goes, the more tools you need in your toolbox. Wrist wraps are one of those tools as your strength increases. As the weight on the barbell or dumbbells increases, wrist wraps become essential for protecting your wrists from wear and tear. But there’s a right way and a wrong way to wear them. In the video below, I show you how to use wrist wraps properly. You can find more videos related to weightlifting in the Alpha Lifting Library module. Giddy up. 👊

Lads, stop going to the gym purely because you want to burn fat. Go to the gym to become stronger. Physically. Mentally. Emotionally. Build muscle. Lift heavier. Challenge yourself. Keep promises to yourself. Let your nutrition take care of the fat loss. Use the gym to build a stronger man. 👊 Giddy up.
