Front Foot Elevated Split Squat If it's not in your training program already, it's certainly worth a try! This exercise, without the elevated front foot, was already one of my favorite unilateral (single sided) lower body exercises, and with its many variations, it has the potential to boost almost any athletes training program. Here's why! 1. Many people find the reverse lunge more accessible than the forward lunge because they feel they are better able to keep up upri...Continue reading

Zercher movements are a great way to add a core and upper back component to your lifts! By holding the weight in the crook of our elbows in front us, it forces us to squeeze our core and upper back, in order to stay in a tight, upright position. If you're looking for a way to change up your programming, give zercher lunges a try! This method also helps to reduce compression forces on the spine since we are not loading the weight on our traps. Many people who find difficulty in holding a front rack position (the elbows forward position, held for a front squat), find zercher movements more manageable, due to the decreased stress on the shoulders and wrists. For more training tips, or a personalized training program of your own, send us a message today and see how we can help!

Big announcements As of tonight at midnight, Fredericton is moving back in orange phase. This means new protocol will be implemented to help keep everyone safe. Koncrete Kilos will remain open, but there will be a few changes to ensure we can abide be the safety procedures set out by the province. Pick-up and delivery options are both still available. Staff and customers are both asked to wear masks during transactions. Contactless pick-up and delivery options are... both available as well. For more I formation in this, please feel free to send us a message and ask any questions you have. Announcement 2 Due to the colder weather, it is becoming very difficult for us to coat our weights. Our focus now is to continue to provide the highest quality and strongest product we can without the coating. Uncoated drop tests have been conducted on both grass and crush-rock and both provided great results without breaking or chipping. Stay tuned for video drop tests very soon! Coated weights may still be offered on special order but will take extra time as we require a certain temperature to allow them to dry. We greatly appreciate the understanding and would be happy to answer any questions you may have. Covid has certainly created some changes, but together we can adapt and continue to reach our goals! We are devoted to our mission and will adapt as we have to, to continue to support our community to the best of our ability!

Good morning everyone! If anyone hasn't heard about Combat Grappling, I'd highly recommend checking them out! This is an article I wrote for them a while back on the differences in training methods and how they can impact your results. While this article is trailered to combat athletes, it is still applicable to all kinds of athletes and anyone on their own fitness journey. So give it a read and let me know what you think! How we decide to train can greatly vary our ...results. It's important to think about what our goals are before we choose our training method. When choosing a goal, try to think about what that goal looks like. If it's for a sport, what strengths do that sport require? If it's for weight loss, what activities are we hoping to engage in, once we've lost the weight? These questions will help us better determine how we should be training. See more

Which of these photos does your squat look like more? If we excessively lean forward, and round our backs we are putting ourselves at an increased risk of injury and are just making the lift harder than it needs to be. Twice the strain, with half the gain! Here's a few tips to help straighten out your squat! ... 1. Pull your chest up and shoulders back at the top of the lift. Try to maintain this posture through the full movement. Your eyes should be looking straight ahead of you, or angled slightly down. We do not need to "look up to go up". 2. Keep your knees pointed in the same direction as your toes to allow your hips to open and sink deeper into the bottom position for an increased range of motion. 3. "Your knees can't go in front of your toes" is a myth! This is a big one that I hear all the time. A lot of people believe that allowing our knees to move in front of our toes on the squat is bad for the knees, but this is simply not true. By keeping our knees back, we are pushing our hips back and increasing the compression forces in both the lower back and knees, which can cause pain to both areas. By allowing the knees to come forward, we are keeping our hips underneath us, creating a stronger, more upright posture. This will decrease those forces on the lower back and knees, while engaging the same muscle groups just as well, if not better, due to the increased range of motion that this position provides. For more technique tips, or for your own individualized training program, send us a message and ask us about our consultation and training packages today!

All current orders ...and inquiries will be honored at the original prices. The new model will be in effect starting tonight Oct 17th, 2020 at 11:59pm. With this being said, we are unwavering in our attempt to provide the best quality product we can, at the most affordable prices for our clients. We want to lower the barrier to entry into health and fitness so everyone has a chance to reach their goals, no matter what they are! We want to thank all of you for the overwhelming support we've received up to this point. We truely appreciate it! So let's continue to train hard, and build the strongest community we can, together!

Any fans of the front squat out there? This is a great exercise that could benefit a lot of different types of athletes, but often gets neglected as just an accessory to the back squat. This lift engages all the same muscles, reduces sheer forces on the knees, and helps maintain a more sport specific posture for many athletes! For more training tips, send us a message and ask about our personal training and exercise programming options!

Hello everyone, another great day for making weights! We've been getting lots of questions lately about our weights and I'd like to answer some of the more common ones we get now Q: What size bar do Koncrete Kilos weights fit? A: Our weights fit a standard 2" Olympic barbell. We have been getting lots of request for a 1" fit though so this is something we will be looking into in the near future. Stay tuned for details! ... Q: do we sell kettlebells or Dumbbells too? A: At the the moment, we are only making weight plates, but with the amount of requests we've been getting, these are certainly items we want to make in the future! If there is anything you'd like to see us make for you, send us a message and we'll try our best to make it happen! Q: These weights are made of concrete, won't they break when they hit the ground? A: our weights are reinforced with both steel and fiber glass to help ensure durability! Our weights have been dropped tested from over head heights without any damage at all! With that being said, we can't garuntee they are as sturdy as solid steel, so more testing is being done to see just how hard we can drop these weights. But so far, we haven't been able to break them! Want to try before you buy? Send us a message to set up a time and check them out for yourself! Q: I want to get into outdoor fitness but don't know if this is right for me, what are some of my options?
