**CO2 Threshold Training** @lucas_koenecke has been teaching me great techniques on how to improve performance through CO2 training This is challenging and fun! Here's what you do... Pick an exercise: pushups, squats, etc. Step 1- inhale then exhale comfortably, hold Step 2- perform a rep Step 3- inhale, exhale, hold Step 4- perform 2 reps Repeat a pyramid up one rep at a time then work back down. * Increased res blood cells * O2 transport * improved performance #digmanfitness #co2training #performance #deadlift #strongman #workoutchallenge #exercise #wellnessprogram #wellness

Incorrect exercise technique, the wrong choice of training programs, poor adjustment of load components, lack of motivation and injuries are just a few of the reasons that either delay the appearance of results or nullify the possibility of success.

To the average personal trainer, a $1500/mo client is impossible to acquire. “So if I charge $75/hr and I make $1500/mo with them, that means I have to work with them 20 hours a month!” WRONG. Here’s what it really takes to hit $1500/mo. 1. Solve 1 problem for 1 specific person. 2. Switch prices from hourly rate to monthly retainer. 3. Shift from a personal trainer → high-ticket consultant Trainers who move their business online are making as much with 10 clients as their gym buddies are making with 200 clients. It’s simple, but most don’t want to make the shift because the process scares them. Looking to scale to 5-figure months? Check out the link (in my about section) to receive our training.

It’s supposed to feel weird - at the start… One of the topics I always discuss at our Reset Workshops is how UNNATURAL weight training is. Let me explain. Your body naturally wants to use as many strong muscles as possible for you to lift a weight. So if you leave your body to do it’s thing, it will move in a way that it emphasises your strengths. This does make it easier for your body to lift something once. But it leaves you with more imbalances, more injuries and unhappy joints. Weight training must be a CONSCIOUS focus if it’s to be done right. Focusing in on isolating weak muscles will feel VERY unnatural at the start. But like anything, over time you build this skill and you becomes more confident. You get better at contracting the muscles YOU want to contract. And in doing so, become more effective in 20mins than most people are in 1 hour!!

In the second part of “Hamstring Functioning During Running” series of articles, Bas Van Hooren elaborates on the mechanisms of hamstring injuries, the Implications for training, as well as on every exercise you can incorporate into your training process. https://lnkd.in/ea32uDU

You can get an injury from working out the wrong way. Hence, the need for a personal trainer arises. Your personal trainer is always there to ensure that your form and posture while performing any exercise is correct and targets the right muscles and body parts. #personal #personaltrainer #personaltraining #injuryprevention

Trainers, let’s address a common question: should beginners start with free weights or machines? Machines are easy to learn, guide movements, and provide a sense of safety, reducing the risk of improper form and injury. However, do not overlook the importance of free weights. They enhance proprioception, balance, and better mimic real-life movements. Although they may have a steeper learning curve, they are essential for developing functional strength. My advice? It depends on the client. Some may benefit from the stability of machines, while others might thrive with the balance challenges of free weights. Assess your client’s goals, experience, and comfort level to determine the best approach. Tailoring your approach to each client’s needs is crucial. #PersonalTrainer #FitnessTips #FreeWeightsVsMachines #BeginnerFitness #ClientGoals #StrengthTraining #FitnessJourney #TrainerLife #FunctionalStrength #Proprioception #GymTips #WorkoutAdvice

Weight training technique: When lifting weights, don’t hold your breath. Breathe out as you lift; breathe in as you lower. https://buff.ly/4cm6MJO
