There really is no such thing as “too late to start” when it comes to training and improving your health.

Winning is one thing. Winning with so many highs and lows in one game is another. 👏🏾 @Argentina #ArgentinaVsFrance #WorldCup2022 #WorldCupFinals #ARGvsFRA

We would like to send our condolences to the family and friends of Chris Figgis and @CanterburyHC after Chris sadly passed away last weekend. As a mark of respect, we have invited all of our teams to wear green armbands this weekend in their matches. Rest in Peace, Chris.

Not a bad spot to take a 5-min break from virtual training calls/online programming/creating content. I’ll take it any day of the week.

Corfu, Greece for the next few days 😎

@carlosalcaraz gives me both @RafaelNadal and @DjokerNole style mixed together 🎾

The athleticism, skill, composure and aggression he shows on a world stage like the @usopen 🤯

People obsessed with living longer and they don’t even lift weights or do cardio regularly.

Why on earth would you want to add years to then be weak, more susceptible to illnesses, and unable to do things yourself 🤔

[Steph V-S, OLY @StephaneVS]

Good morning,

Let’s choose to do one of the following for an hour today:

1️⃣ Cardio

2️⃣ Resistance training

3️⃣ Sporting activity

😬

[Steph V-S, OLY @StephaneVS]

You’re not fragile.

You always put yourself at risk when you exert yourself, get under the bar, or run.

Manage your risk, don’t avoid it.

[Brad Schoenfeld, PhD @BradSchoenfeld]

Resistance training is arguably the most important interventional strategy for overall health and well-being, yet a large % of the population isn't aware of its vast benefits... https://t.co/BkiUH5UEqd

[Steph V-S, OLY @StephaneVS]

You don’t need to workout every day to change your body.

You don’t need to train for a specific amount of time, either.

[Brad Schoenfeld, PhD @BradSchoenfeld]

Bears repeating: I have seen no compelling evidence that supplementing with protein, EAAs, HMB or leucine is beneficial to muscular adaptations provided that adequate daily protein is consumed

[Steph V-S, OLY @StephaneVS]

If you’re short on time and want to do a full-body workout, try super-sets like this:

A1. Leg press machine
A2. Standing EZ bar bicep curl

B1. Dumbbell walking lunge
B2. Seated chest press machine

No overlap in muscle fatigue, and hits multiple body parts in a shorter period.

[Steph V-S, OLY @StephaneVS]

Improving your form is a way of progression with your lift. It doesn’t always have to be adding weight, sets or reps.

[Brad Schoenfeld, PhD @BradSchoenfeld]

Resistance training may be the most potent interventional strategy we have to counteract the effects of aging and enhance health and well-being 💪

Serena Williams announced her retirement from tennis this morning — and in true GOAT fashion, she used the news to make an important point about the sacrifices women must often make in their careers (and the double standard that still exists in sports):

Poorly designed training programs work.

Mostly, it’s because the people doing them train consistently and with extremely high effort.
