Client spotlight for this month is the one, the only.... Jeff!
Jeff has lost 117lbs over the past 21 months!!! Most of it in his first year. Now combine that with a huge gain in strength and muscle mass and you get a pretty epic Transformation!

Jeff put in a ton of hard work but also completely changed his lifestyle, which is the key to a long-term transformation.

You and Coach Jon keep up the great work! 💪🔥🔥

This months Team Spotlight.... Coach Sheldon!🔥

Position at Kenaz:
👉Kinesiologist

Education / Schooling:
👉Bachelor of Kinesiology - University of the Fraser Valley

Why do you like working at Kenaz:
👉Working at Kenaz gives me a chance to help people locally, and across Canada accomplish a wide variety of goals, from sports performance, to motor vehicle accident claims, to postoperative rehabilitation.

What is your favorite thing about your position:
👉My favourite thing about my position at Kenaz is that I am able to help people with injury rehabilitation, injury prevention, and people who are just looking to get healthier and stronger. It keeps me on my toes, and it allows me to impact a large number of people.

Favourite Client/Niche & 1 piece of advice for them to help them reach their goal?
👉I would love to work with more young athletes! I really enjoyed the off-ice training from my years of playing hockey, and I feel that with my experience and education with injury prevention and strength and conditioning, I could help young players develop their skills, and stay more consistently healthy throughout their playing careers.

Fun fact about you?
👉My other passion is music! I've been playing guitar since I was 9 years old and played in a band for a couple years of high school.

Not sure what exercises to do when? Follow this guide to organizing your workout! 🏋️‍♀️

1. Primary/Indicator exercises → Once you’re warmed up, the exercises you do first should be the most demanding of your workout and should focus on accomplishing your main training objective (hypertrophy, power, etc). These exercises should be multi-joint and use a large proportion of muscle mass (ie. Olympic lifts, plyometrics).

2. Secondary exercises → The next set of exercises you perform will accomplish a secondary physiological objective that compliments your primary objective. For example, if your primary objective is developing maximal strength, your secondary objective may be focused on muscle hypertrophy maintenance. These exercises are often multi-joint as well.

3. Assistant/Accessory exercises → These typically include single joint exercises targeting key muscle groups such as bicep curls, hamstring curls, calf raises, etc.

4. Supplementary exercises → include higher repetition exercises performed with bodyweight, medicine balls or bands. They often include a focus on the core muscles or balance.

Additional tips:
- Goal set and identify your training objectives
- ensure your exercise selection is balanced → rotate upper and lower body exercises or opposing (agonist-antagonist relationship) exercises.
- Avoid trying to accomplish too much. Long workouts can be counterproductive

Strength is gained by the body's ability to withstand certain amounts of stress in terms of load, and adapt to that level of stress over time by repairing itself and coming back STRONGER.
3 ways you can grow stronger and build muscle are:
1. Time Under Tension
2. Progressive Overload
3. The Mind to Muscle Connection (nervous system)
Today let's focus on #1, Time Under Tension 👉 What does this look like? Well it can mean the number of reps of an exercise you perform - the more reps, the more time your muscles spend under tension. It can also refer to the speed at which you knock out your reps, do you bicep curl on a 3-count up, and a 3-count down, or do you just knock them out one after another? Finally, it could be something as simple as doing a squat and pulsing at the bottom when your muscles are in their most lengthened position and under the most tension to increase the time spent in this state. Basically what counts is the overall time a muscle spends under strain during a session. Let us know in the comments below 👇 if you focus your training around time under tension!

1️⃣ Drill your technique: Before adding any weight, it is important to build solid squatting technique. You should continually think about keeping your chest up, hips back, and knees in line with feet. Two drills to re-enforce these movements are wall squats and goblet squats. Another exercise to strengthen your technique is squatting with a box or bench. Stand in front of the box and squat down until your glutes touch the box. This enables you to recognize how your body feels when you are squatting to parallel.
2️⃣ Hip and ankle mobility: Good mobility is key to getting deep in your squat. Before squatting, foam roll (hip flexors, quads, lateral hips, hamstrings), stretch your hips, and mobilize your ankles. A stretch to open your hips is the ‘worlds greatest stretch’ where you go into a deep lung and reach your hand up to the sky. Another is to address the muscles in the front of our hip is a ½ kneeling hip flexor stretch. As many of us sit all day, our hip flexors and/or quads can become excessively tight. So it’s a good idea to stretch them out regularly.
To loosen up the ankles, you could do some ankle circles, toe/heel raises and massage with a lacrosse ball. Ankle flexion is also a great way to mobilize and strengthen the ankles using a resistance band as you pull your toes toward you, then point your toes down towards your heel.
3️⃣ Adjust your bar position: Adjusting the position of the barbell on your back will affect your squat. Holding the bar high up at the base of your neck requires greater mobility in your upper back, hips, and ankles to keep your chest/torso upright. Holding the bar slightly lower (mid trap) and widening your stance will decrease the amount of distance from the bar to your hips providing better leverage. This will make it easier to maintain an upright position in your squat.
4️⃣ Change your shoes: Squatting in running shoes is much more difficult than squatting in flat-soled shoes. Running shoes cause you to be more imbalanced because they lift your toes up off the ground. Try squatting in a pair of weightlifting shoes, converse or vans!
