If you saw the Bruins game last night, this is how you coach in an uncontrollable situation.

Huge shout out to my client Sean! We had made a goal to get him to do 1 pull up unassisted by the end of the month. He blew that goal away by getting 3 in on his own yesterday!!! His determination and effort has been unmatched and I couldn't be more proud if him. Keep reaching for your goals kid, there's nothing stopping you!

Some questions that get asked alot when it comes to exercise are "what are the best exercises to lose fat?" And "how can I lose only my belly fat?" And "how do I lose weight without gaining too much muscle and looking bulky?" The first question people ask is almost always about losing weight and almost always in their stomach. If you're looking for a quick and easy miracle workout for this, let me know when you find it because it doesn't exist!

Consistency is the key! And even this will take time, effort, and will power. Resistance training (weight lifting) is going to be one of the best to get results faster. And for those of you who don't want to become too "bulky," you won't. Take a look at the image below. This is the comparison of 1 pound if fat vs 1 pound of muscle. Muscle is more dence therefor it will be more compact. Where as fat is not and takes up more space.

With all that said, you'll only gain too much muscle if you continue to increase the weight that you lift. Consistent resistance training is an effective way to turn that fat weight into muscle weight and lean out those areas you may not be too happy with.

Also, make sure you're eating appropriate portions of food so you're not storing that extra energy, creating more fat!

Want to be an inspiration to your little ones? Work out in front if them! Children are more likely to be active when they see their parents exercising. If you want to talk numbers, children are typically 4 to 7 times more likely to be active when they see their parents being active. This is huge for the upcoming generation!

Why is this huge? In America, about 70% of the population is considered overweight. Of that 70%, about 40% is classified as obese.

Be an inspiration and set an example for those little ones around you! You may not know it, but they look up to you.

If you're looking to get a high intensity workout in a short period of time, drop sets may be the way to go. With drop sets, you'll basically start with a heavier weight your comfortable doing some quality reps with, then going until you can't do anymore. Lower the weight slightly, and repeat the process after about a minute of resting. Try to aim for at least 3 different sets, but you can do as many as you're comfortable with.

You'll be feeling the burn by the end of this. Put in the work to continue bettering yourself!

With this Sunday being Easter Sunday, there is a high probability that the cardio and Conditioning class I am hosting in Milford will be postponed to the following Sunday, April 16th. If you are still interested in getting a high intensity workout in before your Easter activities with your family, please sign up to reserve a spot so I see that you are still interested in coming down!

Otherwise, I will have another class hosted on Sunday the 16th as well!

Good morning everyone! I am excited to announce that I will be hosting the first Cardio and Conditioning class in Milford this Sunday at 8am! Below is the link for the registration. Location is TBD but will more than likely be at Shepard Park in Milford as of right now.

*Edit* Just realized it's Easter Sunday, but what a great way to start your holiday! Get a great workout in so you can eat all the ham and dessert you want guilt free!!!

Please read and answer all questions I have on the registration honestly! This is for your own safety! Depending on your answers, I may reach out with some additional questions or require you to have medical clearance from your Dr. Safety is always my number one priority! With that said, please make sure you bring water! This is a very VERY cardio and endurance heavy program.

To ensure that everyone is safe and I can give you all my full attention, this is limited to 12 people max. All ages 6+ are welcome to come. This class is all at your own pace and is designed for you to push yourself, but please know your limits.

If you want to know more about the class or my background, please reach out and ask! I'm more than happy to give you more information.

If the demand for this class is high, I will look into hosting more than 1 class a week!

An hour long session that is as intense as you make it! Exercises are explosive cardio based cone drills, with some body weight exercises.

When designing my workouts, I like to take advantage of supersets. For those who don't know what these are, they're 2 sets of an exercise done back to back with little to no rest in-between.

Incorporating supersets into your workouts makes your workout more efficient, helps increase your endurance, and adds an extra challenge since your limiting your resting periods.

This is a simple, yet extremely effective way to give your workout that extra boost to see results quicker. Just finish your bench press set? Add in an extra 10-20 push ups to really feel the burn! Did some squats? Add in those extra lunges. Put in that extra work for those extra results!

Use this simple (but exhausting) trick like this to bring your workout to the next level!

Hey there Milford and friends! I'm planning on putting together an hour long group cardio/conditioning class in town at one of the local fields. This would be open to adults and children of ages 6+ (basic medical questions and information will be required and additional medical clearance may be required if requested).

This is a great opportunity for children looking to get in shape,. Especially with soccer, football, baseball, etc. starting up! This is all at your own pace but I will be pushing you the whole way!

This is still in the planning stages while I work out the logistics and see what the demand is, but if all goes well, I'm hoping to have the first class by next weekend! Rates will be $30 per child (ages 6-14), $40 per adult (ages 14+).

If you are interested in one of the classes, please leave a like, comment or message me directly! If you want to know more about my background, don't be afraid to reach out! I am a certified personal trainer!

Quality or quantity?

Something you hear about a lot from people in a gym setting is how many reps they did of a specific workout or specific weight. While doing high repetitions is great, it's more important to have high QUALITY repetitions.

Quality over quantity will produce better results, target the muscles that are meant to be targeted, and greatly reduce the risk of injury. The last thing you want while trying to reach your goal is to injure yourself because you sacrificed your form for 1 extra rep or because you wanted to do a complete set at a higher weight.

Working out in front of a mirror when possible is a great way to catch any improper movements. If you don't have a mirror available (or don't like to watch yourself while working out), work out with a knowledgeable friend or certified trainer! You'll see results faster when you focus on the quality of your exercises.
