Cable chest fly’s are often forgotten about but should be a definite go-to on your push days The cable chest fly is a movement that opens the chest and teaches scapular retraction (will help with push-up’s). This movement allows you to hit your chest and shoulders as well as working your stability muscles. Don’t try and go too heavy, start light and work your way up - your ego heals faster than your chest #AlphaTip This is a great drop-set for all you pump chasers out the...re at the end of a push or chest day. You could also use this to pre-exhuast for your pecs at the start of your workout. #getalphafitness #jointhepack #getalpha #pushday #chestworkout #upperbodyworkout #fitnessmotivation #workoutmotivation

Alot of people don't see what goes on and into these fights and @dannywsl captured it beautifully! @bazooka_joe_v and @sheridanmma are some of the best coaches in the game and we are proud of @diegomma87 win! He embodies everything that GetAlpha represents

The unilateral overhead carry or farmers walk, is a movement where one side of the body has all the weight while the other side must work to keep your body stable and complete the movement Find a weight that works for you, go heavy. Lift the weight above your head, use your core and back to stabilize your arm and shoulder. Start your walk and switch arms - make sure to leave your ego at the door and take your time! Rushing makes you unstable and defeats the whole point. #Al...phaTip This is a great movement to work your core in a different way! This also forces proper alignment and posture through your shoulder, core and spine without you being able to compensate using other muscles while building stability and mobility. #getalphafitness #getalpha #jointhepack #upperbodyworkout #fitness #shoulderday

Bad foods, cheat meals - whatever you want to call it, placing that negativity on a type of food is the only thing that’s going to create an all or nothing mentality and restrictions, which isn’t helping anyone #AlphaTip Find something that’s sustainable for you and your lifestyle. Restricting is only going to make you want something that much more. Have some pizza, a glass of bourbon, a desert - whatever it is that you LOVE and enjoy it, just enjoy it in moderation. #getalphafitness #jointhepack #getalpha #mindset #fitness #health

TRX bicep curls are an amazing movement to build arm and core strength Line your feet up as close to the anchor point as you feel comfortable and have your body face the cables. Keep your core tight, use your arms to curl and raise your body up and down all while maintaining the perfect plank. #AlphaTip Curls with the TRX allows you to target not only the biceps but also your shoulders, forearms and core; keeping the pressure off your low back and reducing the risk of inju...ry. #getalphafitness #jointhepack #getalpha #upperbodyworkout #fitnessmotivation #curlsforthegirls

Banded kettlebell swings are the movement adjustment that you’re missing but we promise, you need to add to your workouts Grab a resistance band and wrap it through the KB handle, very securely. Step on the band with both feet in a KB swing stance and start swinging. #AlphaTip This is an explosive, powerful movement that will help build strength in your hips, glutes and quads with a low risk of injury... #getalphafitness #jointhepack #getalpha #legday #lowerbodyworkout

We’re talking 5 simple do’s and don’ts at any gym to ensure you and all your fellow members have the best workout possible 1Put equipment back where it goes. No one likes to run around the gym looking for things that people didn’t put away when they need it. When you’re done with a weight, re-rack it..don't be that asshole 2Before you’re done putting the equipment back where you found it, wipe it down! No one wants all your germs and sweat on their hands and cl...othes, no offence 3Personal space. For the sake of your workout and safety, and honestly for respect of others, find a space that has enough room for everything you need to get done during your workout and get it done 4Once you find your space, use it and move on. Don’t sit at a machine with a bunch of weights around you for 30 minutes. Do what you gotta do and move on 5 Social cues - see someone you know with their headphones in? Do a quick wave or hello and keep moving. We’re all busy and don’t always have a lot of time. Keep conversations quick or better yet - plan a party workout so you can catch up during your rest times...but keep those rest times short now...this ain't a Starbucks date #AlphaTip Bottom line - Whatever gym you go too, just respect it and others the way you’d like to be treated! #getalphafitness #jointhepack #getalpha #fitness #gym
