I have been beat the f*ck up my entire life. My whole existance consists of being in the second place. Of being not good enough; of being "almost there" and of continuous "just abouts".

God is testing my measure of a Man. Devil is teasing me with complacency and comfort ensuing i sit back and relax and stop evolving.

My mind is ill - Passion transcended into obsession.

For I am a Phoenix, from the ashes I shall Rise yet again. Every time i fall and recover; that modicum bit stronger than previously.

For God's Strength & My Loved ones support I am eternally grateful 🤲

💪 TRICEPs Extension Hack 💪

Lil trick for extra stability of the triceps! Use Your other hand to support the movement and provide a better lever to be able to produce more force without any unnecessary swinging and abusing of the momentum:)

Give it a go and feel the pump 😎🤓

Drink water!

🦵LATERAL COMPONENT 💪

The front and back (Quad and Hammies) are extremely important in both recovering from a knee injury, such as an ACL tear, as well as optimizing performance.

Whether You are a ballet dancer, a pro ice skater or a basketball player, You need the side-to-side strength and control!

This superset allows to focus on the lateral and medial components of the knee and the hip, as well as working the foot and ankle stabilizers to be able to protect and produce getting into Your single leg landings, defensive slides or eurosteps.

It is a key to work on to get smoother with the movements. It is also a key to focus on during an ACL rehab for the stability and power output of the knee (and the entire lower limb and core in fact) joint 🤓

Give this one a try!

🫣 Why keep it simple? 🫣

🇬🇧We live in a modern ages of social media or "interest" media as @garyvee has pointed out. We can't focus on anything for longer than 15s. Every post every scroll every workout.

💨We are used to rushing through it. The reality is that is exactly how we do NOT progress. Sometimes it is the boring simple sh*t that we repeat over and over again being attentive to all detail. It is when every session or every class You jump and do something new and disregard what You did last where the focus disappears and You do not actively and progressively develop.

❓Why simplicity sometimes matters:

- get the basics right
- good foundation
- not being overstimulated
- understanding the context before progressing

✅There are just a few solid reasons. Take Your time. Do not skip the steps:) get good at something before moving upwards! No house will stand strong with poor foundation nor any tree will stand tall with weak roots!

🇵🇱Żyjemy w erze mediów społecznościowych, czy raczej "interest media”, jak wspominał @garyvee. Nie potrafimy skupić się na niczym dłużej niż 15 sekund. Na każdym poście, ciągłym scrollowaniu, na każdym treningu..

💨Jesteśmy przyzwyczajeni do pośpiechu. Prawda jest taka, że właśnie w ten sposób NIE robimy postępów. Czasami to nudne, proste rzeczy, które powtarzamy w kółko, skupiając się na każdym szczególe to to jak idziemy do przodu:). To właśnie wtedy, gdy na każdej sesji lub zajęciach rzucasz się na coś nowego, ignorując to, co robiłeś wcześniej, tracisz koncentrację i nie rozwijasz się aktywnie i stopniowo.

❓Dlaczego prostota ma znaczenie:

- uczymy sie podstaw
- dobre fundamenty
- brak nadmiernej stymulacji czy bodźców
- zrozumienie kontekstu przed postępem

✅ To tylko kilka powodów. Nie spiesz się. Nie pomijaj kolejnych kroków:) Opanuj coś, zanim zaczniesz iść do przodu! Żaden dom nie będzie stał silnie na słabym fundamencie, ani żadne drzewo nie będzie stało wysoko na słabych korzeniach!

🦵Hip Flexor Strengthening🦵

These variations on a high bench using a kettlebell are a nice way to work the muscle through its length. That extension of the hip loads the iliopsoas in an outer range, which is great to work on especially when we are talking about the "triple extension" - important aspect of sprinting, running, jumping etc.

Being stronger in those ranges that are used less on the daily provided increased stability and integrity of the hip joint.

Want to rehab a sore hip?
Try Version 1 that @enyamaguire8 is doing :)

Need more power output?
@ericanderson527 got You covered!

For some general strengthening You may try the third option which is as more of a "traditional" lift.

Give it a go!
