Rows to Help Posture?

Here is a weird trick I use to help my athletes with their posture.  Hip mobility, pelvic tilt, glute activation all play a role in maintaining a neutral posture.

A neutral posture ensures good movement and bad posture means that there is a potential for:

• the pelvis is out of alignment
• the hamstrings to be on tension
• the abdominals to be on tension
• the glutes to be shut down
• knee pain to be present
• lower back pain to be present
• hip pain to be present

In this video I will show you workout efficiency, ie.  killing two birds with one stone.  When working with athletes you know that their time is important.  You have to get the most impact in the shortest amount of time.  With fitness enthusiasts, it is no different.  They have jobs, kids, stress, long commutes, etc.

Effective Tricep Finisher

During last nights workout the energy was lagging.

It was a great workout and everyone was pretty run down.

So I decided to challenge my workout partner on one of our last sets.  We were finishing up with triceps after an upper body workout and we decided to hit a giant set.  But, little did I know.  When Brad stepped up, he not only increased the weight, but did more reps!  That bastard!

If you’ve been around Diesel for a few years, you know we incorporate a TON of grip training exercises into our programs.  It is not enough to be able to display one facet of grip (crush, pinch, support, wrist postures, hand health, dexterity), you must be able to integrate this strength into full body power.
