Happy new year yall! I’m excited to see your progress in the coming months! Let’s make this your healthiest year yet!

#fitnesssky the magic you’re looking for is in the work you’re avoiding! The exercises you hate the most are likely the most effective! Remember challenge yourself, if it was easy everyone would do it 💪

All about progression not perfection #fitnesssky! 5 more pounds, one more rep, you got this! And internet strangers are here to cheer you on 🔥 💪

Good morning Bluesky! Ready to start your weight loss (or gain) journey? Start by calculating your total daily energy expenditure (TDEE) this is how many calories you typically burn daily + the amount your body burns just being alive. www.omnicalculator.com/health/bmr-h...

Good article on VO2 Max and Longevity. I used to detest cardio. Now, I'm a cardio addict. If I can do it, anyone can do a lot more cardio. worldcrunch.com/culture-soci...

Happy holidays #gymsky remember, no lift no gift. Go get some holiday hack squats in ⛄️ 💪

How ya goin Bluesky! We’re getting near the end of the year it’s the season of starting new! Don’t go into the new year without a fitness plan! Setting up a challenging but doable fitness routine is crucial to staying engaged and committed. As always DMs are welcome I’m happy to help ya get started

Big shout out to last years resolutioners who’ve made it the full year on their fitness journey! Be proud of yourself, this is just the beginning 🤘🏻 #gymsky

#trainingtip are you struggling to find the motivation to get off the couch and workout today? Change into your gym clothes, put your shoes on and fill up your water bottle! I know sometimes it’s tough to get going but knocking out some micro obstacles can be the start you need to get there

Not fitness related but for all my fellow YouTubeTVers that get their live games spoiled constantly by friends/ESPN alerts…YOU CAN TURN OFF THE DELAY its on the channel options on the bottom all the way to the left

#Trainingtip! Don’t be afraid to trade in the iron for cables/bands(occasionally) this change in modalities can impact your muscles in different ways! For example resistance bands ADD resistance as the stretch so end ROM gets more engagement. Switch up the equipment, keep your body guessing!

Good evening Bluesky, let’s take some time to flex your latest milestone in the gym. You crushed it, brag about it! Reply 👇 and show off a little 😄

Today’s #Trainingtip hitting the same exercise from different positions engages different muscles, close grip bench challenges the triceps more over standard grip, wider squats challenge the glutes more, etc. doing the same lift at different angles is great for adding volume and developing physique

Both running and functional HIIT improve VO2max similarly (~11-13%) in just 4 weeks with 12-16 min sessions. Time-efficient cardio gains regardless of modality #fitness #training #gymsky

If you lose count of your reps at the gym, always choose the lower number #fitnesssky

Howdy Bluesky todays #Trainingtip: stretching is just as important as loading up the weights and a great way to stretch is through PNF (Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation) a type of stretching that calls for contraction in a lengthened position. Small thread below 👇

What’s your gym pet peeve? Mine is when folks put the 45s back on top of the smaller plates 🤬

#exerciseoftheday is the Pallof press, a sneaky challenging exercise that tests the anti rotational strength of the core stabilizers! Use a cable or resistance band and press straight out from the chest, creating more tension when extended. These are excellent for developing the entire core 🔥

It’s #spotifywrapped season Bluesky! Who’s top artist would make the best gym playlist?

All you need to train outlined right here! ⬇️ don’t fall for the unresearched supplement of the week, stick with what’s PROVEN

Good morning Bluesky! todays #Trainingtip: the Romanian deadlift (RDL) can be an intimidating exercise but it’s amazing for training the glutes and hamstrings. To break it down simply: the motion isn’t bending forward, it’s pushing your hips backwards! (1/2)

Howdy Bluesky today’s #trainingtip: if you feel overly sore or potentially injured, added rest is important, but so is consistency! Consider swapping your scheduled workout with cardio or other low intensity work avoiding the hurt area so you remain true to your training schedule
