Scapular Mechanics: Lesson 2
Scapular Mechanics: LessonĀ 2
The last lesson on scapular mechanics was via a Facebook Live video where I discussed scapular mechanics during a horizontal rowing pattern. Here is a great example of both vertical AND horizontal rowing with the plate loaded high-row machine. This is by far one of my favorite pulling exercises because the seated position allows you to use leverage in a vertical and horizontal pulling pattern toā¦

Understanding Energy Balance
Most people know of calories (also kcal) but do not truly understand how they work. Those that believe calories donāt matter also probably think the Earth is flat. Perhaps there is a disconnect. Let me explain.
It all comes back to thermodynamicsĀ which states that energy cannot be created or destroyed in an isolated system.Ā Energy balance is the result of energy being transferred. You have likelyā¦

One Year of Eating "Too Much Protein"
One Year of Eating āToo MuchĀ Proteinā
Being a one-year studysubject has its perks.Ā Things like free blood-work, free body composition analysis via the BodPod, and free protein supplements are just a few of those perks! Big thanks goes out to Dr. Jose Antonio, Co-Founder and CEO of the International Society of Sports Nutrition (ISSN), for giving me anĀ opportunity to participate in his one-yearĀ study examining the effects ofā¦

Scapular Mechanics: LessonĀ 1
Can we all agree that Facebook Live is kinda weird? On this particular Saturday morning while out of town, consumption of a copious amount ofĀ caffeine inspired me to do my first Facebook Live video. The topic was about scapular mechanics during horizontal pulling exercises.
In the group fitness setting, I see A LOT of horrendous rowing form that results in more scapular elevation (upwardā¦

Trainer Pro Tip: TRXĀ Y-Raise
As a trainer, you gotta stay on top of continuing your education!Ā Iāve been following Cressey Sports Performance for the past 4 or 5 years learning a lot from their practices with their athletes. One exercise in particular is the Y-Raise with the TRX straps to help improve function of the shoulder girdle. I use this exercise often with both private clients and members at Orange Theory Fitness.

In a multi-billion dollar industry with growth on the rise year after year, it seems like everyone wants to get in on all of the potential profits to be made even if it is at the expense of others. From know-it-allĀ trainers that are getting clients injured due to negligence to self-proclaimed nutrition experts selling you supplements that donāt work and may actually be doing more harm to you thanā¦

WHAT'S IN YOUR GYM BAG? Here's the goodies I keep I my duffle bag: @nike #MetCon1 (you wish you had that color way), @beatsbydre PowerBeats Wireless 2, @clifbarcompany Builder's Bars, speed rope, #smartshake protein shaker, water bottle, and a towel. All the essentials for when I'm on-the-go. What's in your bag? #fitfluential #fitness #clifbar #travel #airjordan1

So WHAT'S IN IT? Someone asked me about #soy protein being in the @clifbarcompany Builder's Bars and how they heard it lowers your testosterone levels. NOT SO FAST! The research says otherwise, research by @dougkalman and colleagues from the Miami Research Institute conducted a study on 20 subjects and measured body composition, testosterone, estradiol and sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) were measured at baseline and week 12. Results showed that no significant differences were observed between groups for total and free testosterone, SHBG, percentage body fat, BMI or body weight. Keep in mind the researchers assigned soy concentrate; soy isolate; soy isolate and whey blend, and whey blend only. Each subject was assigned 50g of the assigned protein daily.
