Dumbbell rows are essential for a developed and strong back. But typically you see them being performed with a knee on a bench. Instead of doing them like that, try them in a three point stance. We have gotten away from the knee on the bench because there’s a higher risk of getting a hernia that way . You can get the same range of motion and avoid all risk by switching to the three point stance. Make sure when you do these, pull that elbow back behind the back, don’t just bring it up to your ribs.

My favorite carb source for best pre and post workout to maximize muscle growth. Fast digestion and tastes delicious.

Efx Karbolyn is a sports nutrition supplement designed to provide a fast-absorbing carbohydrate source for athletes and gym-goers. It absorbs as quickly as a simple sugar but delivers sustained energy like a complex carb.

HOW IT WORKS:
- Absorb quickly into the bloodstream without causing stomach bloating or cramping (common with some carb drinks).
- Replenish glycogen stores in muscles during or after workouts.
- Provide steady energy without the “crash” that comes from sugar-based drinks.

🏋️‍♂️ Common Uses

Athletes and bodybuilders use Karbolyn:
• Before workouts → for quick, sustained energy.
• During workouts → to maintain endurance.
• After workouts → to help with muscle recovery and glycogen replenishment.

⚡ Typical Benefits
• Faster muscle recovery
• Better endurance and stamina
• Reduced fatigue
• Improved muscle fullness

🍓 Flavors & Forms

It’s usually sold as a powder (fruit punch, blue razz, etc.) that mixes easily with water. We also carry a one that is stacked with electrolytes.

It is reported that there’s a 23% increase in glucose uptake after 4 months of resistance training. Because poor glucose metabolism is associated with type 2 diabetes, improved glucose metabolism is an important benefit of regular strength exercise. There’s more to resistance training than just focusing on weight loss.

Amy E has been online training since May. She has lost 26 pounds! She says she feels better, and loves how she’s feeling. She gets a weekly workout plan that has her exercising 5 days a week. Sometimes it’s at the gym, sometimes it’s at home. She gets a weekly menu. We discussed which vitamins would be best for her, and she takes those on a daily basis too. Her workouts have slowly gotten more difficult. Any cookie cutter program that has you doing what everyone else is doing, you should stay far away from. Every BODY is different, so your workout routine should be too. Congratulations Amy! Keep up the good work!

We all need magnesium, which provides structural integrity to bone and reduces levels of parathyroid hormone (PTH) that, if increased, cause calcium to be extracted from bone. Widespread and common deficiencies add to osteoporosis, worsened by grain consumption. The RDA for elemental magnesium is 320mg per day for adult women and 420 mg per day for adult men. Most Americans only obtain 245mg per day, far less than the RDA. Women who supplemented with magnesium demonstrated a 1.8 percent increase in bone density over 1 year, compared to a reduction in bone density in women not taking magnesium.
