My Current Training: Some Strength, some Conditioning. September 27, 2010. So here’s a quick glimpse into my training right now. With my schedule filling up between the 2 (now 3 jobs), its doesn’t leave much time to train, nor much mental energy after a full day of training (when I wasn’t as busy I was training anywhere around 9-11 at night). Med Ball throw variation (done solo with no other pairing). 5-6 exercises same weight, no rest:. Explosive (hang clean, snatch, or swing). Posted by Chris Brown.

Simple Regressions for Stability Ball Leg Curls | Personal Training Blog:
https://strengthtrainingandnutrition.wordpress.com/2010/09/13/simple-regressions-for-stability-ball-leg-curls
Simple Regressions for Stability Ball Leg Curls. September 13, 2010. So equipment pieces like stability balls and Valslides have become popular to train this movement. I think Valslides and slideboards are the gold standard for the performance of this exercise based on the demand they place on the involved tissues, but not everyone has access to them. Doing the whole movement with the hips low is essentially demonstrates a lack of hip extension strength, and thus the effectiveness of the exercise is lost...

Stretch to Win: how can it be modified for personal trainers? September 10, 2010. Today I had my second stretching session as per the Stretch to Win protocol created by Ann and Chris Frederick. My reservations are with a shotgun approach. How is a shotgun approach considered progressive? I have no doubt that some of it can help , but I would always like to see an assessment before attempting to affect mobility. How else do you know what actually needs stretching? I’m doubtful again. Overall it seems like...

Learning to apply breathing mechanics into my programs | Personal Training Blog:
https://strengthtrainingandnutrition.wordpress.com/2010/09/19/learning-to-apply-breathing-mechanics-into-my-programs
Learning to apply breathing mechanics into my programs. September 19, 2010. Lately more and more people have been chiming on training breathing — which is great! As a young trainer, I really enjoy and value all the differing perspectives on this topic as it helps me sift through the information and get an idea of what the experts are doing with it. That said, it is an area I want to read more about myself to better understand why it is becoming an area of focus for trainers. This includes things like pla...

Wipe the dust off that slow-cooker! | Personal Training Blog:
https://strengthtrainingandnutrition.wordpress.com/2010/11/08/530
Wipe the dust off that slow-cooker! November 8, 2010. I will tell you about my new love affair! If there’s one awesome thing about the weather turning colder, its that it’s the time of year to cook up some delicious roasts. If done in an oven, this can be tough as you have to set aside time to ensure that your house doesn’t get engulfed by flames. This doesn’t work for most people myself included especially mid-week! A cure for your meal prep woes. This thing has been awesome! A quick wipe of the slow-co...

What to do with this warm-up circuits idea?? | Personal Training Blog:
https://strengthtrainingandnutrition.wordpress.com/2010/09/25/what-to-do-with-this-warm-up-circuits-idea
What to do with this warm-up circuits idea? September 25, 2010. But I am re-visiting the idea. Here’s why:. Since I picked up the job training at one of the Y’s in the city, I have access to an actual gym, which means space. I don’t have to worry about taking up half a condo gym just for a circuit in this case. Now I have to just figure out how to do isometric holds the way I would like them do within a given time constraint. A couple more things I may need to look at:. Reminded me of this. Create a free...

Inspiration in the commercial gym. October 22, 2010. Being that one of my jobs is in a commercial gym, I often see things that make me shake my head. For example, once I witnessed the assisted chinup machine with about half the weight stack loaded up, being used by a member wearing a weight vest….true. story. Oh yeah, classic Dubya! Anyways, there are also a number of positive things which fortunately give me more hope in humanity. Are their workouts perfect? Don’t get me started. Posted by Chris Brown.

https://strengthtrainingandnutrition.wordpress.com/2010/09/15/502
Proper Swings and 7 minutes to a better squat. September 15, 2010. A couple things I want to pass on today:. I’ve been reading Eric’s stuff ever since I caught the personal training / info junkie bug about half way through my personal training course at the YMCA in 2006. Because of his knowledge and having achieved so much at a young age, I’ve always viewed him as a mentor in that respect. Anyways last week, Eric let the cat of the bag on his new product (. Which will be released on September 21. You are...
