Fix Your Lateral Raises in 90 Seconds👇

Want wider, healthier shoulders?

Start doing your lateral raises smarter, not heavier:

✅ Dumbbells angled 30–45° → puts you in the scapular plane for better delt activation

✅ Gentle shoulder blade depression → keeps traps + neck out of it

✅ Slight 15° forward lean → lines tension up with your side delts

✅ Start + finish 15° away from your body → no cuff takeover + constant delt tension

✅ Lead with elbows, not hands → think “outward” not “upward”

🔥 These small tweaks = BIG shoulder growth + pain-free mechanics.

❌ “Everything in moderation” is NOT good nutrition advice.

It’s one of the myths keeping people fat and sick.

👉 Ask yourself:

– Is “balance” really possible in a food system designed to override your biology?

– Can a little bit of junk still do a lot of damage over time?

– And who benefits when you’re told not to question any of it?

This isn’t about restriction.

It’s about raising the standard.

🎯 Optimal health doesn’t come from fitting in — it comes from thinking critically.

🚨 BREAKING: Spencer is catching gnarly barrels lately🦍🏄‍♂️ and is absent from today’s broadcast.

But he did want me to pass on a very important message:

Stop confusing me and him in the comments — he’s his own primate with his own pronouns (🦍). Species-inclusive communication matters. Don’t be a bigot.

💬 Speaking of comments…
Someone just asked if the raw egg in the Attitude Adjuster 2.0 is “neccacery.” Yes. Spelt like that.

So just a heads-up: these drinks fix laziness and softness, but not stupidity. That’s on you.

🧃 If you’re new here: The Attitude Adjuster is our drink line that helps you get sh*t done — gym, taxes, breakups, or lifting after leg day. Share it responsibly, with those who have a functional frontal lobe.

Stay hard,
Mike

The BEST Bicep Curl You’re Not Doing (No Bench Needed!) 👇

Think incline curls are the secret to longer, fuller biceps?

You’re not wrong… but most people butcher the form. 💥

Their shoulders take over, the elbows drift, and the stretch in the biceps? Gone.

That’s why I teach this variation:
The Standing Incline Curl.

✅ No bench needed
✅ True bicep isolation
✅ Built-in form feedback using a wall

Just keep your body in a straight line, elbows glued to the wall, and curl like your gains depend on it (because they do).

🔥 Add it to your next arm day as a main movement or finisher — you’ll feel it instantly.

💪 Want more arm and shoulder exercises like this that are structured into a full program?

My Shoulders & Arms Program is designed to defined delts and muscular arms —no matter what your level is.

This Free 12 Week Shoulders & Arms Program includes over 50 exercises and 6 workout routines – see the ‘Free Products & Services’ link in my bio and grab your copy today!

The Biggest Leg Curl MISTAKE you’re probably making…

And it’s killing your posterior chain progress.

Most people only curl from the knees when doing Swiss Ball Hamstring Curls — turning a great hamstring exercise into a half-rep, hip-flexor-dominant mess.

🔥 Here’s what you’re missing:
Your hamstrings work at both the knee and the hip (they’re biarticular muscles), so if your hips are sagging, you’re not getting full activation.

✅ Proper Form Checklist:

1. Bridge up — knees, hips, and shoulders in a straight line
2. Push through the glutes as you curl in
Keep hips high throughout
3. Control the movement — no flopping or arching the back
4. If you struggle to hold this position, use hip bridges or single-leg glute bridges to build up your posterior strength.

🔥 Tag someone who needs to fix their leg curl form

Our Story

Upon entering the industry full time as a strength & conditioning coach and a trainer in 2011, Performance Revolution Director Michael Hermann immediately saw an industry that had a lot of need and potential. The fitness service sector in particular, had experienced rapid growth and a huge surge in public interest during the previous decade. However, with all the industry expansion, few were equipped and resourced to solve the comprehensive needs and problems most people face when confronting their health, body composition and performance aspirations. With this situation, Michael made it his mission to deliver the most comprehensive service possible. Since 2012, Michael has gone beyond just training and instead focused on building a team of professionals to maximise client results through all possible avenues. Consideration of other critical factors such nutrition, highly personalized training programming, recovery and stress have all been to factored into the Performance Revolution experience so that any person can achieve truly transformational results.

In Michael’s own words -

“Your fitness and your health are all-encompassing and effect all areas of your life. Therefore, any quest to change these vital areas of your life requires a holistic approach that goes beyond just training sessions and instead focuses on maximising results through all possible avenues. Consideration of other critical factors such nutrition, recovery and stress all need to be factored in for a person to achieve truly transformational results. The few results that are seen in this industry nowadays are usually short term and focused on a singular prevailing mentality – ‘Look better, then Feel better, then Perform better’ – this notion conveys that you must look better foremost, then you will feel better, then you will perform or do better. We wanted to revolutionise this mentality and have people adopt the reverse approach – that if you focus on your personal performance foremost, you will feel better and look better as a by-product….Hence our name – Performance Revolution. Whether the goal is to improve health, athleticism or body composition, optimising a person’s performance should be at the core of one’s program. We believe that striving to be your best in a measured, objective and scientific way will not only make you accountable to your goals, but also give you an unbiased scope of where you are in relation to your goals.”

Peak performance is what Performance Revolution was founded upon. Michael decided to assemble a team around this cornerstone value. Training others is an extension and continuation of this value and passion that each team member of Performance Revolution possesses.
