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

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

Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) is our body's energy currency. This molecule stores and transfers energy for muscle contraction. Can you produce more ATP? A 2016 study finds Cordyceps supplementation increases ATP production. www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

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
