Your body is an ecosystem. Treat it like one. 🌱 "Rewilding" isn't just for nature preserves—it's a principle we apply daily to human performance. You don't need to be a pro athlete to feel powerful in your body.

Let’s talk about one of my favorite rotation windows: the side arm hang archetype (aka the position your shoulder hits in moves like a hang clean or a side plank).

Struggling with the sit-and-rise test? Here’s your no-BS fix. Most folks have the “start” of the sit-and-rise test down. But the finish? If just sitting on the ground cross-legged feels sketchy… you’ve got your answer.

We teach a narrower olympic style squat stance not because we’re trying to win a narrow-stance powerlifting contest… But because sport happens in narrower shapes that allow for greater ROM than their wider sumo-like cousins.

The #1 thing I work on with pro athletes? 👉 HIP EXTENSION. Not just sorta-kinda-straighten-your-leg. We’re talking full-on knee-behind-butt, glutes-engaged, hips-open-for-business extension. Here’s the truth: Most of us never hit true hip extension in our training.

Forget stability as a buzzword. Can you pause and own the position? That's what really matters. 👍 We don't chase "mobility" or "stability" as abstract goals. We focus on one key aspect: transferability.

Movement is *not* optional. Whether you're chasing a toddler, lifting a barbell, hiking a mountain, or just trying to get off the floor with ease at 80, your body is your constant companion. The question is: Are you training for that future?

What do people in their 80s and 90s with no major chronic diseases have in common? According to cardiologist Dr. Eric Topol (@erictopol1) in The Washington Post, the answer isn’t genetics. It’s exercise. 🏋️‍♂️

If you’re smashing big lifts or grinding through high-volume sessions, don’t skip the second half of the equation: Recovery. You’ll sleep better. You’ll feel better. And you’ll come back tomorrow with more readiness in the tank.
