Pretty sweet stuff is about to down with the crew. Tune in to next week’s episode to find out what’s going to happen 🤫
💪🏼 Exercise of the Day - Alternating Dumbbell Floor Press 💪🏼
This has become a staple upper body exercise for all of my clients. I wouldn’t say there many exercises where I’d give to EVERYONE, regardless of goal and limitations, but this is one of the few.
What it does:
✅ Builds muscle and strength in the shoulders, chest and triceps
✅ Gives some mobility in the upper body to make you feel like Gumby
Being on the ground and the shoulder range of motion being limited, even those with back and shoulder aches can perform it.
Key Points:
🔑 Reach the hand which stays in the air toward the ceiling. You should slightly roll away from this side.
🔑 Don’t crush your elbow into the ground 🤦🏻♂️
🔑 Keep heels and low back heavy in the ground. This will give you some abs. Everyone loves some abs.

You can’t do what you don’t do. Duh.
On Saturday evening, I attended a friend’s birthday party where we played laser tag. Real looking gun and everything. It’s badass. Also, I’m glad I was on my wife’s team. She’s a good shot, ultra competitive and absolutely ruthless ☠️ Scared the 💩 out of me.
Anywho, I definitely did some moving in ways I’m not used to. Sore and stiff is an understatement.
On Sunday, we had two volleyball games. Now, I’m super duper sore and stiff.
Why am I sore and stiff? Doing stuff I haven’t done in awhile and A LOT more than I’m used to. The brain does not know what in the hell is going on, so it puts the brakes on for a bit. It sensed a threat, so it slowed your roll.
Similar idea when you hurt yourself doing a mundane task. Picking up a basket of clothes and your hip pops or you’re cruising into second base during beer league softball and your back goes out. No bueno.
If you’re never in a position, then get into said position without conscious intention, s**t can go haywire.
Get strong in all areas, folks 💪🏼
Peyton and Oakley being adorable for your viewing pleasure.

Sadly, I can’t take credit for making this up. Totally stole it off a church’s electronic sign after dropping Brynley off at school.
Thanks for the help in making this post, Jesus. You da man 🙌🏻
The sign was referring to the idea of self-awareness.
This is talked about in the gym every few days.
You can’t improve what you don’t know needs improving.
You can’t reduce your calorie intake to lose weight if you don’t know how much you’re currently eating.
You won’t know if an exercise is appropriate for you if you don’t stop and think about what muscles you’re feeling working.
👆🏻 Unlsss you’re on the Assault Bike. Don’t slow down. That feeling is your soul dying. No big deal ☠️
More self-reflection will equal greater results, guaran-damn-teed.
