Regrann from @kyle.coughlan - 💥SKIP BREAKFAST?💥 - Skipping breakfast is a form of intermittent fasting. - It is not for everyone, however it can be very useful for fat loss. Not because of magic, it’s due to the fact that you EAT LESS as a result of a restricted eating window.... - Here are some scientifically proven benefits of intermittent fasting: - 1)Changes Hormones: When you fast, insulin levels drop and human growth hormone increases. Your cells also initiate important cellular repair processes and change which genes they express. - 2)Helps Fat Loss: Intermittent fasting helps you eat fewer calories, while boosting metabolism slightly. - 3)May Lower risk of diabetes: Intermittent fasting can reduce insulin resistance and lower blood sugar levels, at least in men. - 4)Reduce inflammation: Studies show that intermittent fasting can reduce oxidative damage and inflammation in the body. - 5)May Reduce Heart Disease: Studies show that intermittent fasting can improve numerous risk factors for heart disease such as blood pressure, cholesterol levels, triglycerides and inflammatory markers. - 📚ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15640462 📚 ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25540982 📚 ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17316625 📚 ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17291990/ 📚 ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19793855 . . . #intermittentfasting #fasting #weightlosssuccess #slimmingworldinsta #weightlossfood #weightlosstips #weightlossdiet #weightlosshelp #weightlossinspiration #fatlossjourney #fatlosstips #nutritiontips #healthytips #teenhealth #teenbodybuilding #teenfitness #healthtips #healthydiet #healthybreakfast

Regrann from @dr.caleb.burgess - 🔥Awesome post/graph by @adammeakins regarding the importance of STRENGTH training 💪🏼 . 💥 150 minutes of moderate aerobic exercise is a good start but its NOT good enough! . 💥 Participation in any strengthening exercise, even own body weight exercises such as squats and press ups has been associated with a 23% reduction in mortality and a 31% reduction in cancer mortality! Ref: Stamatakis et al (2018) American Journal of Epidemiology... . 🏋🏻‍♂️ Strengthening exercise appears to be at least, and possibly even more important as adherence to aerobic exercise guidelines. . 💯 All health care professionals have a duty to specifically promote strengthening exercise over and above the generic physical activity targets. . . . . #MMA #Combatathlete #buildmuscle #musclebuilding #strengthtraining #liftingweights #beabadass #musclehustle #workoutday #martialarts #hema #hemastrong #bulkingup #cuttingseason #tacticalshooter #yeg #yegfitfamily #yegfitfam #edmonton #strongerthanyesterday #tmc30 #wrestling #ringen #judo #jiujitsu

Regrann from @chadhargrove1 - You wanna one thing everyone who’s ever burned fat and got lean and defined realized about exercises? - The ones you use the most muscles at the same time, with multiple joints working together, give you the best results. - And it’s not even close.... - So you’ve got a workout program full of tricep kick backs, knee extensions, mini band exercises, and crunches? - It’s not gonna work — at least not nearly as it should. - You can get workouts in, work hard, and spend all that time and you may not see any real change. - Good news, I’ve got the answer for you. - You’ve heard of them. You may even already do them. - Squats, deadlifts, lunges, rows, pulldowns, presses, push ups, and variations of these. - Simple enough right? Even though they’re more technical, you know these moves. And that’s great. - Just do this one other thing and you’ll be set to make progress you’ve never seen before. - Make sure 80-100% of your workouts are doing these lifts. If this is new for you, I’m so excited for you to switch over and see the faster progress. - There’s no magical rep ranges but 3 or 4 sets for 8-12 reps stands the test of time. If you like heavier weights you can go below 8 more. If you like lighter you can go above 20. - The main thing is you gotta be working hard and adding weight to these main lifts. - Be patient and watch as the inches come off. - Drop me a line below and I’ll get back to you ASAP. . . #fatlosscoach #fatlossworkout #fatlosshelp #weightlosshelp #weightlosstips #weightloss #gymprogress #fitnessfun #womensfitness #burnthefat #bellyfat #fatburning #fatburningmachine #fitnessfanatic #girlswholiftheavy #edmontontrainer #yeg #yegfit #yegfitfam #yegfitness

Regrann from @joegambinodpt - Give these “Making Out With A Squat Rack Hinge” a go! 😂😂😂 _ 🤭For real though, these internal rotation hinges in hip flexion will straight 💀 your hips! _ 🏋️‍♂️The Set Up:... 1️⃣Set up with your kneeling knee, thigh, and hip against the rack. 2️⃣Use your arms to pin your chest against the rack as well. 3️⃣This will keep your movement “honest”. _ 🤸‍♀️The Technique: 1️⃣Irradiate tension through use of the rack. 2️⃣Flex the non-kneeling leg as high as you can. 3️⃣Maintain hip flexion and rotate leg into internal rotation-hold for 5 seconds. 4️⃣Repeat for 3-5 reps per side _ 😈Give this a try and let me know how it goes! _ #buildmuscle #musclebuilding #bodybuilding #fit #fitbody #fitnessbody#powerlifting #strengthtraining #workoutlife #workoutflow #workoutday#musclegrowth #gains💪 #gaintrain #musclehustle #gymswag #gymmeme#gymmemes #fitnesslove #fitnessmodels #iifym #flexibledieting #armworkout#armday #armdayeveryday #deadlifts #deadliftday #deadliftparty

Regrann from @dr.caleb.burgess - 🔥Pushups🔥 . 💥 The push-up is a great full body closed chain exercise that can help build pushing strength and endurance on a stable base. It can also help to improve coordination between where we want mobility and where we want stability during the exercise . 📽️ As you can see in the video, it's ideal to have more movement at the shoulder joint and only slight movement at the shoulder blades, providing a stable base on the rib cage for the s...houlders to work from . 🚨 Allowing the shoulder blades to "clap" 👏 together on the descent provides LESS THAN OPTIMAL stability and may indicate poor coordination between the shoulder and scapulothoracic (shoulder blade on ribcage) joints and/or poor use of the serratus anterior muscles, which help keep the shoulder blades close to the rib cage and resist the shoulder blades from coming together (adduction) . 👍🏼 Additionally, it's ideal to keep the full spine in a NEUTRAL position with the chin tucked and head back with the shoulders and the abdominals and glutes contracted. It's helpful to think about LEADING with your CHEST and NOT your CHIN . 🚨 If a full push-up is too difficult, my first choice would be to have you perform it on an elevated surface to reduce the load, but in a pinch you can perform it on your knees. Just try to maintain tension from your thighs to your head with a neutral spine . ❤️ TAG a friend or gym partner who needs some help with his/her pushup form 💪🏼 . 🎶 Teminite - Aspiration . #buildmuscle #musclebuilding #bodybuilding #fit #fitbody #fitnessbody#powerlifting #strengthtraining #workoutlife #workoutflow #workoutday#musclegrowth #gains💪 #gaintrain #musclehustle #gymswag #gymmeme#gymmemes #fitnesslove #fitnessmodels #iifym #flexibledieting #armworkout#armday #armdayeveryday #pushup #pushups #earthdowns

Regrann from @joetherapy - Tight Groin?

Some nice info. . Regrann from @dr.caleb.burgess - 🔥Healing Times🔥 . 💥 One of the most common issues I encounter when helping people recover from an injury or from surgery is of the healing times of various tissues. Everyone wants to be better NOW, but this isn't realistic. Tissue healing takes TIME. We can't rush it. And it's important to understand that tissues heal at different rates depending on their physical makeup and blood supply, among other things. Additional cont...ributing factors, such as diabetes, age, poor nutrition, inadequate rest, etc can further delay the healing process. . 💥 This chart shows the AVERAGE range of healing times for various tissues in the body, including different grades of tissue injury for muscles, tendons, and ligaments. It can serve not only as a guide but also a reminder that we can't force our bodies to heal faster than physiologically possible. What we can do is OPTIMIZE the healing process by rehabbing appropriately, eating high quality food, getting adequate rest, and staying PATIENT and POSITIVE throughout the journey. . ❤️ SAVE this chart as a reference and TAG a friend recovering from injury who could use it too!

Regrann from @evolvetrainingsystem - 🔥WHAT IT TAKES TO BUILD MUSCLE/ LOSE . I’m just going to talk about the mentality aspect here since I always talk about the other categories . If you want a quick fix, get in shape fast before a vacation, looking for shortcuts, not balancing your regular life with fitness, not willing to learn you’re not going to make it very far, in fact the chances of you sticking to it long term doesn’t exist... . It’s that short term thinking that’s creating most of your health problems and frustration . If your mentality is one of that who is willing to give yourself time, face challenges, overcome obstacles, and understand that it’s not a smooth road, you’ll be fine, everything will come together . Fix your mentality and your problems will be fixed, not instantly but inevitably . . . #weightloss #weightlossjourney #weightlossdiet #weightlossplan #diet #dieting #fatloss #fatlossjourney #nutrition #nutritiontips #nutritioncoach #fitness #fit #fitnessmotivation #fitnessjourney #dietplan #dietfood #dietstartsmonday #nutritionplan #caloriecounting #countingcalories #losingweight #howtoloseweight #highprotein #wholefoods #healthydiet #healthyweightloss #weightwatchers

Regrann from @joetherapy - STRETCHING THE PIRIFORMIS! - 👉The piriformis is a small muscle whose primary job is to rotate the hip externally and is probably best known for causing sciatic pain. If the piriformis gets tight, it can cause pain from the butt to the feet. Give this a try if you have a tight piriformis. - ☝️Here's how to perform the standing figure-4 piriformis stretch!... - 1️⃣Find something you can hold on to. 2️⃣Cross your leg over the other knee just above the knee. 3️⃣This creates a number 4 shape! 4️⃣Begin to bend the knee and squat down. - 👉LIKE and COMMENT if YOU or someone you know has a tight piriformis! - 🙌Charlie Puth - How Long (Tritonal Remix) - #joetherapy #sciatica #pirformis #personaltraining #onlinetrainer #noexcuse #determination #results #strengthandconditioning #foamroller #foamrolling #outdoorworkout #pigeonpose #yoga #personligtrener #crossfit #crossfitgames #crossfitter #crossfitgirls #wod #mobility #fisio #swoleandflexy #legpain #chiro #runnersworld #physio #runhappy #nikerunning #massagetherapy

Women are Badass. Don’t believe me? Than you need to open your eyes. - Now that it’s been said, let’s talk about how woman can train to make themselves even more badass. Today’s lift of focus is the Squat. The Squat is called the king of all exercises. (Debatable). There is a large amount of variations of the squat available to choose from. We have the bodyweight/Air squat, Goblet Squats, Landmine Squats, Front Squats, High Bar and Low Bar Squats, Overhead Squats, Split Squat...s, Bulgarian Split Squats, Jumping Squats.. the list goes on. The key is the match the squat variation with your goals and current abilities. - The two back squat variations (Low bar and High bar) get a lot of attention in the strength and bodybuilding circles. The back squat is the variation that people can usually handle the most weight in, however it is not always the best choice. If you struggle with the form of the back squats, hammer home the mechanics of the squat with a Goblet squat. If the back squat causes you pain, assess why, is it form based? Or do you have a mechanical limitation that is causing the pain? If it is form then it is fixable, if its a mechanical limitation then back squats are not the squat for you. - Due to the long range of motion of the squat, there is a large demand on the body in both terms of strength and energy systems. This means squats can build a ton of muscle, and burn a ton of fat off the body, and improve your heart and lungs ability to handle high stress situations. - Now get out there and squat! - If you are ready to build better habits, take better care of yourself, drop me a DM or email me at Coach@strongerthanyesterday.org and lets get you started. . . . . . #strongwoman #womanwholift #strengthtraining #yeg #yegfitfam #yegfitfamily #yegcrossfit #crossfitwoman #stronggirl #strengthtrainingforwoman #ladieswholift #liftheavyshit #fit #fitbody #fitwoman #iifym #coaching #yegtrainer #girlsgonestrong #liftheavy #womansfitness #buildmuscle #squat #squats #squatbooty

Regrann from @achievefitnessboston - ***TIGHT GROIN?*** - What’s up, Achievers?! @jasonlpak here with some drills you can use for a tight groin. First things first, if you’re feeling pain or discomfort you should definitely seek out help from a PT/Chiro to figure out what might be going on. This series of stretches is geared towards individuals with a general or mild feeling of tightness in their groin/adductors. In this video, I demonstrate four mobilizations we like to us...e with our members: - 1️⃣Open 1/2 Kneeling Adductor Dips. Aim for 8 each side. 2️⃣Wide Stance Hip Rocking on Forearms. Perform 10 reps. 3️⃣Split Stance Adductor Mobilization to Kneeling. Do 6 each side. 4️⃣Lateral Lunge with Plate Push. Shoot for about 5 each side. - We hope this video helped you out! If it did, please hit that little ❤️icon above - we’d really appreciate it!

I trained with Michael for 8 months and the results I saw in just a short 6 weeks were huge. I never deadlifted before working out with Michael and by the time our training was done I could lift 185lbs. He pushed me in ways I never knew I was capable of, and he is one of the most knowledgeable guys I know when it comes to fitness and having injuries.
