This is exactly what this has always made me think 👏👏👏 @gregnuckols #Repost @vitaminphd (@get_repost) ・・・ In b4 "but the man-made chemicalz!" All matter is made of chemicals. Your food, your body, your dog, your yoga mat, your man-bun and your essential oils. Chemicals. Chemical nomenclature is the most accurate way of describing a substance, just like your surgical team uses anatomical terms like "olecranon process" and "scapula" to describe your body rather than things like "funny bone" or "shoulder blade." If the thought of your surgeon refusing to use proper terminology makes you uncomfortable, why are you following "nutritionists" who fear chemical nomenclature that they can't pronounce? #factsnotfear @rpstrength #rpcoach @acefitness #certifiedhealthcoach @the_issn #cissn @teamrevivestronger #powerliftingwomen #powerlifting #physique #fitness #fitnessmotivation #exercisescience #evidencebased #guthealth #gutmicrobiome #nutrition #gmo Credit to @gregnuckols https://www.instagram.com/p/BsOYDqZA-Kg/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=57b6jholqsld

Landmine Squat-Press This is a grueling exercise that requires only minimal weight for one hell of a workout. The reason being is because it requires great disassociation between your lower body and upper body as your upper body becomes a stabilizing force while your lower body becomes the moving part. In addition, it requires great upper body strength, thoracic extension with adequate squat range of motion. I prefer to use a bench to prop the landmine up prior to starting the exercise simply to help me get a grip on the bar to lift it up into the starting position. Then, as you slowly lower into the squat position, think about lifting the barbell overhead and not letting it move. Now, this position can slightly differ based on what your goals are. If you’re looking for more overhead strength, simply allow your arms to stay over the back of your skull in an extended position to target that specific movement. If you’re looking for more of a shoulder bias, allow the arms to reach in front of your body which will create a long lever arm and turn into a nasty arm pump quickly.

Sports Nutritionist Certification

I am super lucky to work for a company that allows me to better myself professionally. In 2011, they sent me to Las Vegas to take the certification exam for the CISSN -- Certified Sports Nutritionist from the International Society of Sports Nutrition (See more at: http://www.sportsnutritionsociety.org/CISSN.html#sthash.DDjCxw1u.dpuf).

With said certification, I am able to counsel athletes on nutrition and supplements. I have learned so much from the ISSN and continue to learn more. I took another exam online today to earn some CEU's and stay current, which I got 100% on by the way! It sort of makes me miss school :(

Taking the exam today also got me thinking about getting back to counseling athletes again. I got too busy last time I attempted this, but I think I can handle it now. Plus, with 3 more years of experience in the sports nutrition industry (I formulate for a major sports supplement company), I know I have a lot more to offer athletes and exercise enthusiasts.

Gym goals for 2013

Kind of my version of Gym news years resolutions. It's always good to list your goals. :D 1. Continue to get stronger. I want to hit a 200kg Deadlift, 130kg squat and 100kg bench by this time next year. 2. Take the nutritional consultancy side project further. Gain my CISSN. 3. Nail my bench press technique. It sucks right now. 4. Compete again. I took a huge 3 year break from competing due to injuries and work. I want to be ready to compete again by about March. Some of these goals will be easier than others, the strength goals being the real challenge. You"ll never succeed unless you push yourself. :D
