Nek Level Performance

❕I see way to often trainers throwing their clients under heavy loads or even just a barbell when they just aren’t ready for it…

❕Thomas is 14 years old and we are still focussing on the way the body moves and how to control it properly with either just body weight movements or small added weights

❕Slow eccentric (going down phase) box squats is great for teens or even just new gym comers. What we focus on is to control the quads , hamstrings & glutes at a slow rate to touch the box and stand back up

❗️ Thomas has been absolutely killing it with how far he has come from starting out just a few months ago 💯

❕Rehab can be a painful thing at times and sometimes can feel like it’s going no where

❗️Do NOT stop. After weeks and weeks of continuous rehabilitation to my ankle in a footy injury , I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel

❕A little control and stability exercise I’ve been doing in the lock down to strength my hamstrings and work on my balance

❗️Stay safe everyone and keep moving your body through these tough times

“Bro do you even progressive overload? 🤯” A while ago I was stuck with my training and hit the stage no one ever wants to go.... THE PLATEAU 🤬 Tried different ways of getting out of it and it all came down to one simple technique ......

Progressive Overload. 🤌🏼

What is progressive overload you may ask?

Progressive overload is when you gradually increase the weight, frequency, or number of repetitions in your strength training routine. This challenges your body and allows your musculoskeletal system to get stronger.

My progressive overload this week was to finish off my last set with a drop set into 1 & 1/4 reps and let me tell you now it burns 🥵 🔥

Try implementing this into one of your compound exercises and let me know how you go or if you can still stand 😅

Happy hump day fans 👋
