Getting Real Results

I wanted to take the time to talk about results. I am not talking about getting muscle. I am not talking about maxing out on a squat. Let's be real, your max squat is barely a quarter squat. Nobody was looking, you didn't drop a load to get badk up, so it must count! The most effective workouts are the most consistent. Fluid and smooth workouts make your calories burn faster, your muscles grow stronger, and your recovery time cut in half. That is where the Ground Game comes in. Trinity Strength & Conditioning is top of the line when it comes to maximized results. Muscle density, lean and cut. Low body fat and blazing fast metabolism. You can be strong or you can be skilled. You can run long distances to burn your calories, or you can be mobile and agile like a wild cat. We stand on our feet all day, or worse yet! Some would win the Olympics gold medal if Couch Potatoes became the main event. Want a strong core, back, and chest? Load the body. Even muscle heads have very little weight in their arms, relative the the rest of the body. Bear crawls, wheel barrows, hand stands, and crab walks all load the shoulder complex. How do we work on sprint work? We do explosive work outs. We increase our stride length, stretch out, and increase or leg strength. Bang, same thing, when it comes to the upper body. We are on our feet all day. Share the love with your workouts. Load the shoulder complex. We don't isolate. Do you know how many muscles are in the human body? Prime movers, antagonist, synergist. Basic stuff to a trainer. But why do we take time for bicep curls? Really. I had a had a huge laugh when a trainer told me his secret trademark move that worked for all the ladies. Two 10 pound dumbbells and do a set that had a bicep curl and hammer curl, do 15 reps each, alternate back and forth. "Left, Left, Left, Right, Left." Really? We aren't in the military. The entire training staff loved it! Well, except me. So, I gave my rebuttal about sprint intervals and strength training. I said, I would never want to show anybody that dumbbell curl progression. Just another reason for them to fire me. Biceps are build with pull ups. Can't do pull ups? Learn to kip. Can't kip? Get yourself a spotter or an elastic band to help spring you up. Functional training has so many more practical applications than stupid exercises like that. I would rather teach you how to get up off your butt than teach you how to do bicep curls. You won't get any stronger curling the remote or an empty bag of potato chips. You won't get in any better shape if you won't get up and do something about it either!
