Pullups can be hard and take practice. Here I am ( @strong_steve_ ) showing you just how hard it can be....particularly after an intense back workout. .... This was the 4th set....reps were 8,6,5,5 and a miss. This is up from just two months ago. A progression from 3,3,2. (I don't like them as much as other back exercises so tended to avoid them 🙄) .... Work on them each week, as I have with some of my clients. It's a great way to improve strength and make some achievable goals. .... For guys and girls to give you a lush looking back and shoulders. .... #fit #fitspo #trainingtips #personaltrainer #Sydneyfitness #personaltrainerSydney #toneitup #backday #pullups #Gfitness #StrengthBeing (at Gfitness)

Some of the crew when they started 10 weeks ago. ... Now they slam those balls like they want to break through the ground. 💥 ... Because they stay committed to the exercise and I program to progress them each week they have shown some great changes. I will be featuring some of them later this week as I take a couple of days off work while I travel back to Adelaide to visit my family. ... You don't have to be super-human, or even fit to get started. That's what my job is...to make you feel super-human 💪🏼. ...

I believe people in my position should be educating people about health and fitness rather than telling people what they can and cannot do, or can and cannot eat. To simply judge someone for their eating and lifestyle choices is not productive....and name one fitness professional who doesn't stray from their training or diet? *That isn't lying about it. Education leads to empowerment and better choices, and freedom to choose is far more likely to result in the client's success. So I say... Let he who is sin cast the first cheeseburger 🍔 (or is it celery stick) Strong mind, strong body...Strength Being! #fit #fitspo #healthyeating #healthyhabits #healtheducation #fitnesseducation #personaltrainer #personaltrainersydney #Sydneyfitness #Rhodes #StrengthBeing @strong_steve_ (at Sydney, Australia)

Weight goes up, weight goes down, weight goes up, weight goes down. ------------------------------ This post has a couple of messages. Consistency of training is obviously important to results, however being human we all experience off days, off weeks or even off months. Stress takes a toll, injuries limit training, laziness can creep in. 🙄 However, you can jump back in the saddle, come up with some new goals and reignite that energy. 💪🏼 ------------------------------- I hadn't prioritised any fitness goals for a while...many life changes in a short period of time had occupied my thoughts and feelings. Yes, life takes over and yes, that is fine for you too. If you find yourself complaining about it however, then you need to do something about it. Recovered from my knee injury, I am putting any goal of competing in powerlifting on hold while I rebuild my body fully. So, I decided to set myself the goal of getting on stage in September instead, partially as eating balanced has always been my challenge.....I really enjoy burgers 🍔 and beers 🍻 sssshhh 🤐 Now, after five weeks of progressively cutting calories, cutting out alcohol and following my strict training I am starting to lose cms around my waist, as well as 1.5kg on the scale. ------------------------------- The message really is that progress takes hard work, weight loss takes time. Your body needs to adapt to changes in diet and exercise. Keep setting small goals so that you can monitor your progress. #fit #fitspo #goals #strength #fitness #diet #caloriecounting #lean #healthyhabits #Sydneyfitness #personaltrainer @strength_being (at Rhodes, New South Wales, Australia)

Even when you are super busy you can feel good about your food choices. 🤔 . . Add some veggies to this dish and you have a wholesome meal that will feed most families of 3-4 people...or two meals for someone like me 🙄 . . #foodie #foodinspo #foodeducation #healthyeating #diet #personaltrainer #Sydneyfitness #Rhodes #StrengthBeing @strong_steve_ (at Rhodes, New South Wales, Australia)

My favourite bridge in Sydney, other than the harbour bridge of course: ANZAC Bridge, named in honour of our veterans. . . The photo doesn't do the beauty of the bridge justice but I get to drive on it a few times each week and it's the favourite part of my drive. Today the autumn twilight sun was bloody spectacular! Enjoy. . . #Sydney #ANZACBridge #autumn #twilight #nofilter #iphone7 (at Sydney, Australia)

I got hot sauce in my bag, swag 🌶 Literally. . . This sauce is amazing! Less than 2 calories per 5ml serving, and no preservatives. 👌🏻 It adds a delicious kick to your meal prep....particularly if you are eating cold meals, or perhaps you just don't like your veggies. 🤢 . . Either way, this sauce will serve you well. 😁 I like to take mine in my bag to work. . #foodie #mealprep #hotsauce #nutrition #beyonce #Sydneyfitness #personaltrainer #Rhodes #StrengthBeing (at Rhodes, New South Wales, Australia)

This is what a good grocery shopping excursion should look like...however, with a limited knowledge of food and so much temptation being waved in your face (note the $1 chocolate bars behind the belt 🤦🏼‍♂️) HOW IS THE AVERAGE PERSON EXPECTED TO SUCCEED?! . . 1. Start by reading the food labels. Know what ingredients are in it. .. 2. Look for as many non-processed foods as possible. Note there is a difference between packaged and "processed" in this instance. Processed refers to food no longer resembling it's whole form. .. 3. Have a snack before you go to the supermarket. If you shop while hungry you will likely pick up some unnecessary treats. Geez, your brain is tricky 'eh? . 4. Be kind to yourself. You are allowed to have a treat. Everyone on the planet has something that they like. The sugar and fats that you eat trigger the reward centres of your brain...no wonder you had trouble eating too many potato chips in the past. The key phrase being : in the past. . 5. Talk to an expert personal trainer, or dietician. They will support you along your journey and educate you so you know what to do in the future. . 6. Search Strength Being on Tumblr to read my blog posts. . 7. Smile 😁 . #food #fit #fitspo #healthyeating #cleaneating #mealprep #groceries #groceryshopping #smartshopping #foodeducation #diet #nutrition #personaltrainer #Sydneyfitness #Rhodes #StrengthBeing @strong_steve_ (at Strength Being)

My new gadget to play with from from @striivaustralia 👊🏼 . . I'm looking forward to using this device not only for my workouts but also for keeping a journal of my weight and exercises, as well as the handy alarms to keep me on track for meal/supps times (I'm a busy man and therefore easily distracted 🙃). . . I will share updates as I go. . . #fitspo #fitboys #fitgirls #learninghealthyhabits #striivaustralia #connectedfitness #personaltrainer #Sydneyfitness #StrengthBeing (at Rhodes, New South Wales, Australia)

I had a moment recently where my fears, frustration and doubt were seeming a little too much but suddenly they were washed away when the thought came to me "what if it IS worth it?" . . To me it meant the fights, the losses, the learnings, or the setbacks in any area of my life could just in fact all be worth it. The shift went from a negative state of being, to one full of possibilities...instantly. . . So....what if IT IS worth it? . #midweekmotivation #StrengthBite #enlightenment #postivevibes #personalmotivator #worthit #Sydneyfitness #personaltrainer #StrengthBeing @strong_steve_ (at Rhodes, New South Wales, Australia)
