Still one of my all-time favorite leg combos 👇

Barbell Squats + Sissy Squats.
I’ve shared it before… but clearly not enough.

Main target? 🎯 Your quads will tell you tomorrow 😏

This combo hits the sweet spot for strength, volume, conditioning — and yes, even aesthetics if you care about that 🤓 (just like 90% who goes to the gym)

Here’s how it goes:
• 8 reps of barbell squats — as deep and wide as your mobility allows.
• Straight into 12 reps of sissy squats (no breaks).
• Then rest 2 minutes — or until your heart rate drops to about 60%. Then repeat the sequence 2 or 3 times.

Will it make you the strongest?
No absolute strength but it boost your strength endurance.

The fittest?
Hmm, all depends on what you consider “fit”. Carryover for must life styles. Abso-freaking-lutely.

But will it build resilience?
You bet.

Muscle mass?
Absolutely.

Structure and accountability? Always. Keep me away from the GP, Physio or other health practitioner. 100%.

Even people with lumbar issues — like me — can thrive with proper form and progression.

Will it work for you?
Maybe. It’s all about adjusting and tailoring what fits your body and goals.

Helen just turned 80 and keeps going strong!!! 💃🏻🏋🏽‍♀️

Undoubtedly, she’s not only one of my dearest clients ever but also someone I’m proud to call my friend. You can imagine how much wisdom and life advice I’ve received between sets over the last 22 year.

Yes, that’s right. I’ve been a proud member of Team Helen since 2003! I started witnessing her fitness journey when she turned 58 (which is my current age).

Dunno about you guys (probably I do), but Helen has inspired me to stay healthy and thriving so that I can have as much vitality, inner and outer strength, a positive attitude, and a lovely posture by the time I turn 80 (only 22 years from now).

Ah, yeah, there’s also her training! Every session is truly delightful, compelling, and rewarding. Helen is not only extremely coachable but also open to being exposed to different approaches for her strength and conditioning: From therapy strategies post-hip replacement and lumbar spine surgery to Pilates, mobility, and resistance training. There’s heaps of weight-bearing and strengthening work!

Her program includes carryover movements for her active lifestyle and sport of choice. Let’s not forget: Helen plays tennis regularly.

Nobody I know has become physically stronger, moved better and able to lift heavy stuff from the floor just by only walking or picking up leaves in the garden. Just in case you’re wondering, Helen’s resistance training includes an essential collateral benefit: Her cardio endurance. Not the other way around.
Read that again.

The 4 movements showcased in this video are a glimpse into her fitness preparation, recorded last week 🎥:
1️⃣ Single Leg Box Squats
2️⃣ Single Arm Standing Press
3️⃣ Hinge Sit-ups on the BOSU dome
4️⃣ Single Leg Deadlifts

Thanks to dear and inspiring Helen for showing us how it’s done . The ultimate stronger sister 🩷

As usual, I’m happy to elaborate and answer any questions about featured moves. And, needless to say, don’t forget to leave your belated wishes for Helen on her 80th 🎂🩵

End-of-the-year Reflection:

As I reflect on the past year, I can’t help but ask myself how my pursuit of becoming the best personal trainer I can be is going. It’s an endless pursuit, and I feel like an everlasting student. I’m still trying to define whether I’m more of a nerd or fitness geek.

However, what I am clear about is that I’m a hands-on and proactive sustainable-results-provider. I remember in my early years in Australia at a commercial gym when a fellow personal trainer teased me for sweating during my PT sessions. Looking back, I see it as a compliment. Even after 40,000+ sessions, I still have the same passion as day one.

My clients definitely don’t travel to see me just for my dad jokes. I tailor everything, from small details like the music and studio temperature to the equipment and exercise prescription, to ensure that they get the most value out of each session.

I want to express my gratitude to them for trusting me as their PT, strength and conditioning coach, and fitness butler. I look forward to raising my standards even higher in 2024.

Love and wellness,
Will

I posted this article on LinkedIn 4 years ago discussing the importance of choosing the right personal trainer FOR YOU.
The title was "10 CUES TO PICK THE BEST PT FOR YOU".
I'm reposting it because it's still CURRENT and might help someone to take make happen this time (and for good) his/her fitness resolutions.
As it turns out getting MOTIVATED is often an overrated expectation. Motivation comes from getting things done. In fact, sometimes you don't even have to do your best. Just SHOW UP as regularly as possible.
If you disagree with my statement above, l'd love to read your perspective and learn from it.
I'm just sharing WHAT WORKS FOR ME.
Looking after your fitness doesn't mean you need to go-hard-or-go-home every single time. As it turns out, we don't need a divine revelation to go to the gym. We don't have to wait to feel 100% to do it.
Nobody cares if we beat our personal best repeatedly.
The body responds to either nourishment or punishment.
Choosing between progress or plateaus (or injuries) is your call.
The frequency of your workouts defines your adaptation's rhythm.
As James Clerk would say, "every time you turn up at the gym is like casting a vote for the fit person you deserve to become".
You'll feel much better afterwards, even if you're not feeling that flash.

Discipline is like a muscle that responds well to consistent habits.
Now, picking the right fitness coach for you is the other importance party of your fitness puzzle. This article might help you to resolve it. See the link in the first comment.
