Natural Solutions

Just a brief clip that vaguely outlines what we looked at during the seminar at .wa 🎥

We basically outlined energy (and what is considered energy as far as our body is concerned) and we followed that up with well what does it look like when we approach that in 2 very different circumstances and how might that change our ability to lose weight (primarily fat).

Tempo?

One that I think a lot more people need to pay attention to purely just to make sure they avoid injury and take care of their joints a little better ✅

It’s not a one size fits all rule but GENERALLY it’s best to focus on control and keeping tension in the right areas.

Come and find us at Roar MMA and we can help you with it 🙏

Struggling to put more weight on your bench press or even just any exercise?

At some point we need to remember that doing 3x10 until we can’t is a quick way to get stuck 😖

This method is by no means new and those that participate in strength sports use variations of this a lot. But does that mean those of us who just like to train in general can’t use it? Of course not!

Let’s say you’re doing 3x10 on an exercise at 10kg and cannot get past that weight if you try to get another 10 reps.

Could we not aim for say 5-8 reps on the first set and then return to 10 reps for our following 2 sets? Absolutely. You may even find this helps you get through those following sets even easier.

The following week you can add 1 rep to that first set and continue progressing.

Don’t limit yourself based on generic rules and use methods to keep progressing!

Single Leg Exercises aren’t all created equal but what makes them different?

Well the main thing would be stability.

Being unstable isn’t a bad thing but it can sometimes stop use from progressing which ultimately does prevent us from reaching our goals and it can also at times increase the risk of injury which we definitely don’t want.
