*TRAIN SMART* 😉👍

When using a weight machine, you wouldn’t rest the plates between repetitions, right? That’s because the key to muscle growth is maximising “time under tension.” Letting the weights rest on the stack reduces this crucial element.

The same principle applies when using dumbbells and barbells. For example, when doing lateral raises, avoid letting the dumbbells drop all the way back to the vertical position. Instead, stop the movement when the dumbbells are about 15-30 degrees from your body — at the point where you begin to feel the tension ease. By doing this, you maintain constant tension on the deltoids, which promotes muscle growth more effectively.

Improve your shrugs with this simple tip: at the top of the movement, when you reach full contraction, give your traps an extra squeeze for a second. Then, instead of pausing at the bottom, immediately begin the next rep to maintain tension and intensity throughout the set. Time under tension is the third most important factor for illiciting muscle growth.

DID YOU KNOW? 🤔

You can achieve incredible results with less than four hours of exercise per week! In fact, scientific research suggests that training beyond this amount may not only reduce your progress but also negatively affect your motivation and recovery. Quality, consistency, and smart programming are the keys to long-term success.

Here's 4 ways music can enhance your weight training sessions:

👍 Boosts Motivation. Upbeat or intense music can push you to start and keep going, especially when you're feeling tired or unmotivated.

👍 Improves Performance. The right tempo can help you lift heavier by syncing your movements, promoting a more consistent pace.

👍 Reduces Perceived Effort. Music can distract from fatigue and discomfort, making a tough workout feel easier and more enjoyable.

👍 Increases Focus. Wearing headphones can help you mentally lock in and block out distractions.

Take charge of your day instead of letting it control you. Always start with a plan - prepare the night before to set clear priorities. Rise early to embrace the morning's quiet energy and make the most out of each day.

The best way to prevent shoulder injury during workouts is to avoid exercises the consistently move your hands from below to above shoulder level.

When performing exercises like the shoulder press, ensure to stop your wrists above shoulder height with each repetition.

Turn Back The Clock and Sculpt a Better Physique...
.. Weight Training isn’t just for bodybuilders - it's a powerful tool to combat aging and even improve your physique as you get older. Research shows that resistance training helps preserve lean muscle mass, increases bone density, and boosts metabolism, all of which naturally decline with age. A 2019 study published in Frontiers in Physiology shows that older adults who engaged in regular strength training improved muscle mass, strength, and physical function - often surpassing their younger inactive counterparts.

In fact, building muscle later on in life is not only possible, it's highly effective. The body remains remarkably responsive to strength training, even into your 60s, 70s, and beyond. Combined with proper nutrition and recovery, consistent weight training can redefine your physique and help you feel younger, stronger, and more energized.

"If you want a good day, have a good morning; if you want a good life, have a good day."

Getting up early and starting each day with a positive mindset and good habits is the precursor to having a great day. In turn, consistently having good days will lead to a better and more meaningful life.

The way we approach the beginning of each day has a ripple effect on the rest of our day, and ultimately, our overall life.

One of my fridge staples is this simple mushroom mix, which I use as the base for most of my sandwiches — it’s not only full of flavour but also packed with incredible health benefits. Start by frying a couple of cloves of garlic until their aroma begin to fill the air. Then add two varieties of mushrooms (I like to switch them up regularly). Once they’ve just begun to soften, toss in some sliced onion — red onion works best since it cooks quickly while keeping a nice crunch and doesn’t overpower the dish.

When the onions are just right, turn off the heat and stir in two fresh herbs (here I’m using home grown basil and Rumbalara). Most herbs need only the residual heat to release their oils and flavour, so avoid overcooking them by turning off the heat before adding them. Finish with a light sprinkle of turmeric and a touch of black pepper, which helps activate turmeric’s powerful properties.

Keep this mix in the fridge and use it in place of sauces or mayonnaise — it lifts the flavour of any sandwich while keeping it fresh, healthy, and satisfying. Below, it accompanies a roast chicken sandwich.
