You should include beta-alanine in your pre-workout supplement because it helps to increase carnosine. This is a dipeptide found in high concentrations in muscles and the brain. It is an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory that buffers pH in muscles. Muscle pH decreases during intensive exercise.

Think of your hips and shoulders as the 'engines' or power centres of your body. They're built to handle heavy forces and dynamic movement. And your spine acts as the stable chassis. This is referred to by Kelly Starrett as the 'one-joint rule'. #Biomechanics #SpinalHealth #InjuryPrevention

Fatigue is a neurological mechanism designed to govern performance. Research shows regular, targeted exercise optimizes the HPA axis and enhances mitochondrial signalling, fundamentally resetting the brain's governor for balancing endurance with the need for rest. #Gym

Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is the direct, useable chemical compound source of energy. It serves many purposes but for exercise it helps muscles contract and aids in protein synthesis. The body has four systems that coordinate to create ATP to fuel your exercises.

If muscles are not used on a regular basis they will become smaller and weaker (atrophy) and this will cause our body to have less restorative sleep. Sleep Medicine Review reports exercise is a treatment for improving sleep.

Learning to stabilize your core increases your body's ability to produce power from the arms and legs. A strong and stable core provides the arms and legs with a solid anchor to produce force and movement. Developing a strong core will enable you to experience better body control. #Biomechanics #Gym

The shoulder is the most flexible joint in our body. Stabilization of the SITS muscles (rotator cuff) is essential to glenohumeral (shoulder joint) stability. Exercises targeting external and internal rotation of the rotator cuff, as well as closed-chain exercises, is essential. #JointHealth

The deadlift is not just an exercise: it's a fundamental human function that builds systemic strength, stabilizes the posterior chain and is number one for preserving functional power and spinal integrity as you age. Only a professional can teach you the skills required to safely master it. #GymLife

With so many supplements out there, it’s important to know the ones that work. Have you heard of ZMA? It stands for Zinc Monomethionine Aspartate, Magnesium Aspartate, and Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine). This supplement supports energy, sleep and protein synthesis, and Vitamin B6 helps your body absorb ZMA
