If it’s good enough for the strongest man alive, it’s good enough for you.

So many of us complicate exercise selection When trying to build muscle, thinking we need endless variations to see good results.

But according to @australianstrengthcoach, coach to some of the strongest athletes out there, simplicity wins.

You’re gonna want to save this!

Sebastian has eight exercise categories he chooses from for every athlete he trains & he does an equal amount of each to create balance.

Fighter, rugby player, strength athlete…they all follow the basics.

1. Horizontal push
2. Horizontal pull
3. Vertical push
4. Vertical pull
5. Hip dominant squat
6. Knee dominant squat
7. Hip hinge
8. Knee flexion

Comment BALANCED and we’ll send you the full episode where he teaches you pro level insights for building strength.

When did we start needing a device to tell us how we feel?

We track our sleep, recovery, stress and activity. But somewhere along the way, have we stopped trusting our own bodies?

More data doesn’t always mean better health. And trying to optimise everything can leave us so overwhelmed that we end up doing nothing.

Your wearable should help you understand your body, not replace your ability to listen to it.

There’s never been more information about how to improve your health. So why is it getting harder to know where to start?

Blood tests. Supplements. Wearables. Recovery treatments. Longevity protocols.We’re told to track more, test more and optimise more. But when does it all become too much?

After rebuilding her health following chronic illness, biohacker and author Camilla Thompson has a different perspective on what it means to take control of your wellbeing.

In this episode of Raise the Bar, we explore:

- Why getting the basics right beats chasing the latest biohacking trends
- How to use health testing and wearables without becoming obsessed with the numbers
- Why what works for someone else might not work for your body
- The free and paid biohacks Camilla actually uses
- How to improve your health today while protecting it for the decades ahead

Better health doesn’t have to mean doing more.

A great coach not only supports you, they nudge you forward.  But ultimately, a client needs to know you have their best interest at heart to trust you enough to push them outside of their comfort zone.

In our latest Coach’s Corner, we discuss different style of coaching feedback and how they create or inhibit motivation.

Training in your running shoes?
It may be time to reconsider.

You don’t have to train barefoot, but a minimalist shoe with a less supportive sole is far more beneficial for lifting.

Being able to feel the floor through your shoes plays a key role in proprioception and feedback to the brain.

UFC testing showed @camrowston exactly where he was falling short: strength, power and velocity.

So how do you train those weaknesses?

- Isometric lunge holds
- Isometric bar pulls
- Pogos for foot strength
- Strength and conditioning barefoot

And surprisingly, not a lot of heavy lifting.

Don’t waste a rep.

That’s one of the biggest things @camrowston has taken from training with former UFC Featherweight Champion @alexvolkanovski

When Volk is in the gym, he’s in the gym. He knows that when he gets home, he needs to switch gears and be a dad. So there’s no wasted time, no going through the motions and no half-hearted reps.

More time isn’t always the answer. Sometimes you need to do more with the time you already have.

@camrowston didn’t win a single round in his first week at City Kickboxing.

His reaction wasn’t: I’m not good enough to be here.

It was: this is exactly where I need to be.

He sold his car, packed two suitcases and moved to Auckland, because there’s a lot to be said for finding a room where you’re not the best person in it.

How do you keep going when you’ve been chasing the same goal for nearly a decade?

For UFC fighter @camrowston there was something worse than not making the UFC: getting to 40 or 50 and wondering if he could have done more.

Could I have trained harder? Taken another fight? Given it one more shot?

Nearly a decade after turning professional, he got his answer: Mission accomplished.

Getting better sometimes means putting yourself in a position where you’re no longer the best in the room.

In this episode, we cover:

🥊 Why being the worst in the room can make you better
🥊 Going from “zero talent” to 3–0 in the UFC
🥊 The loss that led Cam to completely change his training environment
🥊 What it took to finally earn his UFC contract
🥊 How his strength and conditioning is built around his individual weaknesses
🥊 Fight camps, weight cuts, nutrition and recovery
