4 Movements That Will Keep You Young

Sitting is the new smoking!

What???

As technology advances, the need for physical movement diminishes with it.

If you look back in the day, a lot of work would of involved more movement

Now most work is done via emails or a click of a button.

Hence the new saying....

Sitting is the new smoking 💀

So what can we do to help counter this and keep our body's young and be able to last a life time?

Start with these 4 types of movements

1️⃣ Hip hinge

It's basically learning or using your hips to help pick things up rather than the lower back.

You focus more on pushing the hips back rather than rounding the spine.

Movements such as...

Deadlifts
RDL

2️⃣ Squat

Another great way to stay young.

Not only does it keep your hips and knees healthy it also helps with the bowels

You should aim to squat to your full depth. Easier said than done I know.

You can start with box squats to help increase the range of motion

Or you can even start off with split squats

3️⃣ Pressing

Pushing weight over your head or off your chest.

Another basic movement that we can all do and help keep our shoulders young

4️⃣ Pulling

Another fundamental movement to keep our body's young.

It's the opposite to pressing which aids in the prevention of imbalances and poor posture.

Things like forward head posture and rounded shoulders can be reversed, with a good pull routine

Movements such as....

Rows
Face pulls.

The human body is a weapon and can withstand and last a lifetime.

Just help it out a little and it will soon remember what it's meant to do

And reward you with a reverse in age 💪

What Seems Impossible is Only a Few Steps Away From Possible?

Weoght training or your fitness journey in general can seem like an impossible task, right?

Especially as we get older..

We hear things like

You're too old now or we even think it ourselves.

But guess what?

It's never to late!

What seems like an impossible task, is literally just a few steps away from becoming possible.

I read a good quote the other day...

It's goes along the lines of...

Your comfort zone is a slow death for the body.

And it's true, there's no improvement without discomfort.

Taking a few steps outside your comfort zone each week soon compounds into huge changes.

Start it small, don't over reach.

How does a little walk each day sound to start?

Manageable.

Then add in a weight training session the week after.

Manageable

Week three, chuck in a circuit class.

Manageable

Week four

Add in another weight training session

Manageable

Within a month, you would have increased your physical activity by 4 times what you used to do in a manageable way.

And boosh....

The benefits start to flood in as well.

Increased lean muscle mass (toned look)

Decrease in body fat

Increased confidence

Decrease in aches and pains

Increased mental health

Decreased risk of heart disease

Increased awesomeness 👌

Small steps

Small improvements

Made and kept consistently over time bring great rewards.

And remember your not training to become an athlete...

Your training to improve the quality of life you have physically and mentally 😎

Great effort that 💪 Good job 👏

Why Weight Training Is So Damn Good

Weight training...

The building blocks for everything from...

Physical fitness to mental health

Self confidence to being pain free

Increasing energy levels to losing weight

It will do it all...

But how?

1️⃣ The body must bend but never break

The human body is an absolute weapon. The s**t it can endure is incredible.

When used correctly and trained, you'll notice a much healthier and a more pain-free life.

Movements like deadlifts, squats, over head pressing, rows and so on all ensure the body moves and bends exactly how it's designed to.

When you consistently do these movements, you will notice a fast change in how you feel in day to day movements and general life. 🕺💃

2️⃣ The battlefield stirs, your heart must echo it's rhythm

Training weights in a superset manor or if it's HIIT training, your heart rate elevates.

There's several great outcomes from this, the best being

A rush of the feel good hormones
Your heart health increases
A huge boost of energy

Remember, more energy is only given out by the body if you move.

Energy creates energy 🫁🫀

3️⃣ Muscles remember the tales of yesterday

Your body already knows how.

If you watch youngsters move, watch how their movement patterns flow naturally?

Weight training will remind your body of how it's meant to move and feel, and that's without pain or stiffness.

It's never too late to pull it back, just a little push and reminder, and your body will be back in working order.

Stay with it, and it'll last a lifetime ✨️

4️⃣ The mind is ready, the body must follow

When you've made the decision to change and go for it the body will follow you.

Sure it'll ache for a little while after your first few sessions but it'll soon get used to the new stimulus

Think of those few days of aching as your body thanking you for setting it free again 🥳

It'll soon reward you with a feeling you've not experienced for years 💪

One of my proudest times as a coach...

Working with Geth and watching a boy grow into a man

Geth couldn't run 500m without having to stop or almost wanting to give in just a few months back.

Now I can't get the lad to rest in between sets 💪

I've never seen something click in a person as much as with Geth 🫡

It's almost as tho he knew deep down he had potential and was made for more, and boy does it show.

Determination is through the roof, and his physical fitness and mentality show it.

One of the best efforts I've ever seen Geth boy

Over 3 stonne weight loss ⚖️

And

Hitting 7 minute miles 🏃‍♂️

I'm super proud of you bro 💪

Big things to come from this young man 👊

The Day You Plant The Seed, Isn't The Day You Eat The Fruit

Training....

Probably the most frustrating game you can play in the whole wide world 🌐

Challenges are a plenty.

We know it's good for us, yet our brains make it so difficult to do 😠

I'd go as far as saying showing up is more often than not a lot harder than training itself!

There's an abundance of posts, memes, reels and what not around trying to sell you a quick fix

They work...

For a little while any way.

But the only ever lasting results I see is from...

Planting the seed

And staying consistent and letting it grow.

Stop over thinking things

Stop worrying about the scales

Stop thinking you have to do crazy s**t

A lot of it really doesn't matter if you're just looking at feeling better, moving better, and general health.

Consistency over time is the winner

Train with resistance a couple times a week

Move more than you did the day before

And not being a pigger also helps.

Nail those three things consistently and the seed you planted at the start?

It'll blossom without you even realising

Remember, training regualr is more than just trying to look good.

It's what keeps you alive

It's what keeps you young

It's what keeps you sane

It's everything you need to function for the long haul

Physically and mentally 💪

Where It All Began, Where It All Started! The Story...... Spartan Strength Camp

From a young boy who lacked any height, self confidence and had some extra large teeth! Life was pretty difficult to make friends and have any social life. Boo whoo right.

Then i found sports! Then i found the weights room, then i found the Royal Marine Commandos!

Fitness completely changed my life story from a sad young man into a person i could believe in.

After my time with the Royal Marine Commandos I set out with a goal in mind! Change the way the world perceives health and fitness. Make it more fun and accessible to all. Therefore i become a personal trainer.
