A big back ain’t built lifting light weight!
On my power focused days, underhand pulldowns are a staple
Full stretch at the top, nice powerful pull to the chest and some serious control through the eccentric phase
That’s how muscle is done!

Structuring your back workouts is simpler then you think
Pulldowns and Rows
That’s pretty much it
Whatever variations work for you, barbell, machine, cables or dumbbells who cares
Just do plenty of pulldowns and rows

Just double scooped a pre workout (I thought that was the dose) but turns out I’ve double scooped the wrong pre workout which is only meant to be a single scoop due to its extra potency
This is going to be a mad morning

Since having a baby, I know recovery is even more important then before
So I generally train on a day on day off rotation. Seems to work best to rest, recover and give me a good balance at home

You have to adapt your training as you get older
At 23 I was in gym every day, sometimes doing 2 sessions
At 36 I train 3-4 times a week whilst maintaining a healthy active lifestyle
My body can’t handle ridiculous training schedules anymore, my lifestyle doesn’t suit it either #dadlife

I was trying to explain “the pump” to a gym newbie the other day
Best way I could put it
“You know how you wish your dick was always big as it is when you’ve got a boner? That’s what a pump feels like for your muscles”
The pump is basically a boner for your muscles

A good gym session is only as good as its playlist
The right tunes can have a dramatic effect on your training
That’s why I opt for the Frozen soundtrack on the regular
Being a girl dad is awesome 😂😂
