@toro__training In case of online training: Start them out easy and plan each training week ahead. Slowly letting them push out of the comfort zone and having them record every lift. Constant feedback on the videos and encouragement to add a rep more or some weight.
Improving my cardio allows me to stay longer in a 195ยฐ sauna now. No one stands a chance anymore, I'm out-sauna-ing everyone that comes in after me. Health benefits are secondary, it's all about the mog.
Non-UFC related, but every single one of you should be forcing your hip into extension daily. Hip Flexors are quite possibly the most important muscle that no one talks about. Tight Hip Flexors = poor hip mobility = low back and knee pain. This stretch = ๐
@kombuShane Form roller is nice to make it more comfortable. Or doing it in a power rack and using low safeties to ease you in deeper.
I generally do it at the end or before sleep and hold as long as I can. :D Sometimes before squats or lunges when my hip is feeling too tight.
Biggest benefit of moving and sweating is the blood flow to ur brain. Every time enhancing neuroplasticity, allowing the brain to detox and increase the scope of thinking. Willpower, creation... they all become better. Looks are really just the byproduct of good living.
A week of cabin maxxing, drinking only fresh mountain spring water, getting burn mogged by alpine sun and eating copious amounts of swiss cheese and chocolate.
Such a no brainer to stick to same meals when dieting. Anything else and u're not serious about progress and making it easy. Take decision fatigue out of dieting and success is guaranteed. Also the fastest fat loss ever. In shape people repeat the same routine over and over.
"To be a good bodybuilder you must be a good observer"
To become good at anything you must observe first.
You emulate and adapt, creating your own style. But it always starts with the one that has mastered the craft you're trying to pursue first.
Serge Nubret has a lot really powerful quotes. He was into the art aspect of bodybuilding, the connection of body, mind and soul. Way more prevalent up to the Golden Age.
Much to take from that time.
"Genetics help to some degree, but the most important thing is the mind and the spirit. These two are even more powerful than physical characteristics that are passed on"
Favorite exercise that let my delts really grow is seated barbell overhead press. Smith machine or regular barbell. Flat bench. Much greater tension than leaned back against a bench. Extra help from core to grind heavy reps out and easier to progressively overload.
