It's all in the hips

Some proper weightlifting going on here. A few things to note:

• Check out how quickly the guy at 2:03 in drops under the weight.  This is an example of really, really good technique: making an Olympic Record look like a warm-up.
• Style points: the Permullet about 2:30 in
• How athletic are these guys? Check out the dude 3:00 in (Not so much the guy 3:16 in).

The Squat

08/03/08 by admin | Advice, Blog | No Comments »

The squat is an essential movement not only for athleticism, but for well being. The squat is not some exercise a trainer invented in the gym – it is in your DNA, as much a part of human movement as walking. Watch any small child playing on ground, and every time they have a perfect squat. Tragically, as we age and spend countless hours in nice comfy chairs, we lose the flexibility and range of motion to be able perform this vital movement. But with good coaching and persistence, anyone can rehabilitate themselves and work towards a perfect squat.

No Time For Lunch?

This is probably the number one excuse we get when giving nutrition advice. “I don’t have time to eat healthy.” It’s just not true. Here’s a video on a 2 minute salad from Mark’s Daily Apple. All the ingredients can be purchased at Costco. We have one for lunch 6 days a week!

Anyone recognize that stretch? Not bad for a for a 54 year old man!

Nice Jarod!
