If your hips or knees still feel tight after warming up, this is the swap I use myself:
Deficit reverse lunge, knee to a pad
• Front foot on a plate, dumbbells by your sides
• Step back slowly and lower your back knee lightly to the pad
• Drive up through your front foot
• Alternate legs
Tight is one thing. Painful is another. If it hurts rather than just feels stiff, get it checked before you push on.

Gang for those who have been close to me over the years you know the battles that I had had with depression and anxiety since leaving the NSW Police Force. Like most people I know I have had times where I have struggled and times where I have thrived. Support has been crucial during all of these times and I cannot thank everyone past and present enough who has had my back. My battle continues daily as I know it does for most of you.
Those close to me also know that I started the “75 Hard Program”, 41 days ago now. If you didn’t know the program lasts 75 days. Look it up on IG or FB and you will find the basic rules of the program and find out that it is all about building mental toughness. One of the rules is to perform two (at least) 45minute workouts a day, one of which has to be outside. I want to finish the program with some hardship, which is why the last 30 days of the program I want to re-do the “30 Days of Murph” Challenge as my outdoor workout for the day everyday for 30 days. This workout has always held a special place in my sole, it lifts me out
Starting this Thursday 5 August 2021 and finishing Friday 3 September 2021 I will be doing “Murph” as my easy workout for the day, 5 days a week, and on my rest days away from the weights it will be my hard workout.
More information to come but this is a great cause. It is close to home for many of us and with COVID-19, especially lockdowns and masks, mental illness is wreaking havoc on lives. Lives that matter, lives too close to home. Please support me and throw in what you can afford. Black Dog Institute is doing some great work around these issues.

Your body is keeping score of how consistently you train 👇

7 systems that change when you show up week after week:

• Muscle – kept, not lost
• Bone – denser and stronger
• Brain – better blood flow, protected memory centres
• Arteries – flexible, not stiff
• Heart – more output, less effort
• Joints – nourished by movement
• Belly – less of the dangerous deep fat

But “consistent” is the part most people miss.

One niggle you ignore, push through or panic-rest can cost you months, and every benefit on this list goes with it.

“No pain, no gain” is lazy advice. Training smart enough to KEEP training is the real longevity plan.

I’m an Accredited Exercise Physiologist with 15+ years helping lifters tell the difference between adaptive stress and actual damage, so they stay in the gym instead of on the sidelines.

It’s NOT over when you lose, it’s over when you QUIT.
Excuses, don’t let them in.
Hospital yesterday morning, back in the gym today. Good job 👏. Thought I’d lost another training partner 😂

Thoughts over breakfast 🍳 on Exercise Physiology.
Everyone is an expert and knows what their body needs in the iron paradise. Especially with all of the information available on podcasts, social media, you tube and from your training buddy. Why on earth would you even consider paying for this advise when so much of it is free??

Overlooked, under rated and unused. Such a great resource that goes to waste on 99% of the population every day.
Yes I am one. Yes I am a good one. Yes I like helping people. Yes I smile to myself when I see and listen to people go on about their exercises that they do after seeing them on you tube or from listening to a podcast. Yes I feel shallow for laughing to myself but, whatever. Isn’t everyone an expert. I know when I want my car serviced I look how to do it on you tube and service it myself, not. Last time I built a house, you guessed it I built it myself, haha. If only I had a prescription pad……. Who the f..k would need a doctor.
Ps…. Men are the worst. They know everything. Breakfast this morning…. The man was telling the table full of women how good his podcast/you tube exercises were and the women were saying how good their exercises from their exercise physiologist were. Who looked and from my trained eye got up and moved better. Lets just say it wasn’t the skinny little man who “used to be fit”.
