The Training Ground

My second mom. Fractured foot and busted knee from an equestrian accident, torn meniscus from a work accident most recently. Rehabbed with me 100% (I let no PT take credit lol). Hits depth like a champ. She doesn’t look her age but a gentleman never asks. Not too shabby. Stop by if you want to squat to depth. Or don’t. I really don’t care. #weightlifting #fountainofyouth #noexcuses #squattodepth #personaltrainer #fitnesshero #delco #bestofdelco

Gonna piss off a lot of coaches on here. Programming all sorts of variant lifts. How about you take a seat and maybe coach a client on how to activate properly? Ask for real time feedback. From personal experience I have online clients meet with success AND failure because my specific approach to coaching is etched in stone. Sure the approach can be tweaked but I admit there are clients I just can’t reach. Guess what? I’m not a McDonald’s. I don’t have the patience nor the lack of integrity to say I can train everyone. But what I DO have in skates is the fundamental understanding that a muscle underdeveloped is a muscle not recruited. Pretty simple. #coachinf #musclebuilding #bodybuilding #rehab #physicaltherapy #experiencedcoaching #integrityintraining #leadbyexample #practicewhatyoupreach #fitness #personaltrainer #delco #bestofdelco

So I don’t know about my fellow coaches, but I’m not in the business of babysitting. I’m in the business of making you the best version of yourself you can be. And if I have to slap you once, twice, or in this case: thrice; then so be it. I will provide any and all support, even outside sessions. I do this because you trust me enough to help you succeed, and in order to do that sometimes that means stepping outside the session, lend an ear, a pair of hands, or be present when... needed. I care about my clients so much it doesn’t bother me one bit. So here’s a guy who struggled with trepidation: he had trainers straight mess up his back with ego lifting, bad coaching, and stupid exercises. And if you’ve noticed: since we began our training he’s done nothing but improve PAIN FREE. It’s quite amazing. Oh wait...no it isn’t. #leadbyexample #practicewhatyoupreach #personaltrainer #bestofdelco #delco #privategym #goodcoaching See more

Thank you lorde for this bounty of meme material. And thanks to @squat_university for always bringing the lolz. #readgood #mefailenglishthatsunpossible #meme #fitnessmeme #glasses

I don’t care what you have going on right now! You try to do balance movements and I PROMISE you that any ill-thoughts get PUSHED right out! That is; if your intention is being in the present. No, I’m not a born again yogi. What I AM is pragmatic! I have hip pain, I have mental stress; why not take the $5 dowel I bought at the Home Depot (lol at 45 dollar and up @stickmobility) and just went to town. Felt good to get out of my comfort zone! #hipstrength #mobility #stabilitydrill #core #coreworkout #exercise #workout #practicewhatyoupreach #leadbyexample #defiantathletics #delco #bestofdelco
