CREATE A MORE EFFECTIVE BENCH DIP The bench dip very common exercise. It only requires a bench (or two benches), or a STEP. The goal is to work the triceps muscle. But does it ? During a standard Bench Dip, it is the frontal deltoid that is doing most of the work, because it is the muscle mostly responsible for operating the upper arm lever in the pathway of this particular movement. However, most people have no intention of working their frontal deltoid when doing Bench Di...ps. This movement creates very little benefit for the triceps, and worse, this particular movement works the frontal deltoid through its riskiest range of motion - the extreme stretch. Changing the depth of your Bench Dip so that you do not exceed a 45 degree angle isolates the tricep, reduces the strain on the front deltoid, and keeps the exercise within your natural movement. Your hands should be shoulder-width apart on the surface you are dipping from, with your arms straight. From there you dip down until your arms are at a 45-degree angle, then straighten them out again, raising your body.

Did you see Coach Dylans (@coach.dylan.fgf) barbell get-up we posted the other day? Heres how it achieved it The Turkish/Kettlebell Get up Progressions & Regressions The Turkish Get up is a great exercise that targets the entire body, with a strong emphasis on shoulder & core stability. ... Often people dont know where to start with it, and lack the shoulder & core stability to do one, risking injury. Heres how I approach progressing all the way to a Barbell Get Up, other than just upping the weight. - Roll Over + Press - Kettlebell Armbar - 1/4 Get Up - 1/2 Get Up - Get Up - Turkish Get Up - Javelin Push Press - Barbell Get Up Pro Tip: Which I SHOULD have done, keep your EYES on the KETTLEBELL

Great nutrition post from Coach Dylan @coach.dylan.fgf I LOVE all things Peanut Butter, and Peanut Butter & Chocolate. Peanut Butter toast was one of my go-to snacks. I NEVER measured out a real serving size. I would always put a nice thick layer on my toast so that it was extra tasty.... What I didnt know back then, is how many calories I was consuming. I always figured I was putting "about one serving" on my toast. But in fact, I was putting triple that or even more. So if your goal is weight loss, and you have a favorite snack that you dont ever measure, maybe reconsider that! You might be consuming A LOT more extra calories than you think.

5 Natural Foods That Are Anything But... People instinctively like the concept of "natural" almost as much as we dislike things that are "artificial" or "genetically engineered" or "monstrosities of science." But heres the thing. It turns out just about everything that we traditionally think of as "natural" has been tampered with -- sometimes utterly beyond recognition. Not that the word "natural" wasnt meaningless in the first place. For example ...

How many ladies do you think gravitate to a barbell for a squat, or bench press? I didnt! Until I learnt proper form I avoided them in the gym and missed out on key exercises. Ladies. You will not look like a man if you lift heavy either. Steroids do that, barbells dont.

In 2011, Drew Manning (@fit2fat2fit) burst onto the fitness scene by doing the unthinkable. He was going to gain as much weight as possible in 6 months, transforming himself from a lifelong athlete and personal trainer, into someone who was inactive and obese. Drew then used his exercise and nutrition knowledge to lose all of that weight within the next 6 months. All in an effort to gain empathy for his clients. His brand, Fit2Fat2Fit, was born. Now 9 years later, hes doing... it all again. In this weeks episode, Mike (@mikeclarklife) discovers Drews motivation behind taking this journey once again, and how is going to be better prepared to deal with the highs and lows of gaining and losing weight. Find the Performance Theory with Mike Clark on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music or visit our website (www.purewelllnessstudio.com) to check out this and other episodes.

Form. Simple for regular gym goers (mostly), but maybe no so for people wanting to learn and insecure going to a gym due to not knowing how. Everyone has to start somewhere. Im here to help. - Coach Keana

Curls. I care less about what weight you are lifting, and more about whether your elbow swings. Imagine elbow is pinned and your lower arm rotates around it like a hand on a clock. - Coach Keana

Movement Preparation. Ever start your workout and feel you should have stretched first, maybe pulled a muscle? Dynamic stretches are an excellent tool to prepare your body for activity. - Coach Keana

If you have trouble falling asleep, or staying asleep, massage therapy may be able to help turn those sleepless nights into rest and relaxation.

The dreaded after meal bloat. You know, the one where you have to unbutton your pants because its so uncomfortable. Do you know what it feels like? Its no secret that the feeling of belly bloat is horrible, embarrassing and something we all wish we could avoid.... Fortunately, there are a few suggestions to help: Step 1: Take a daily probiotic: Probiotic bacteria found in fermented foods like yogurt help promote better digestion and fight bloat or you can take a quality probiotic supplement. Step 2: Chew well and focus on digestion: The first part of digestion starts in your mouth. So make sure to be mindful when youre eating and chew your food thoroughly. Veggies like broccoli, cauliflower, and brussel sprouts can lead to bloating and/or water retention as well, as they ferment in the digestive tract. Its important to eat these veggies in moderation (if youve noticed a problem). Step 3: Change your eating habits: Add anti-inflammatory foods to your meal plan. Things like berries and green leafy veggies filled with antioxidants, hemp seeds, and foods with plenty of omega-3 like wild caught salmon etc. Step 4: Focus on gut health: This means eating right, getting enough sleep, reducing stress levels, and healing your gut. Remember, gut health is at the root of everything Step 5: Take a digestive enzyme: Take approximately 20 minutes before you start eating a large meal. Taking enzymes and eating the right foods, in the right proportions, can promote the growth of good bacteria in your gut which fight that feeling of fullness. Still having problems?

Massage therapists assess which of the clients muscles and joints are receiving the most stress due to their posture. This allows them to determine which areas of the body they need to work on, and to select the right massage techniques. Professional massage therapists check for overly tense muscles and stiff joints, and will ask the clients about their lifestyle in order to narrow down what habits may be causing their abnormal posture.

If you are one of the many who experience depression or anxiety or are just overloaded with extra stress, massage can be an effective part of treatment supporting you to create a sense of relief, empowerment and mind-body connection.
