- When life gets tough, your why keeps you moving forward. It’s your anchor, your fuel, your reason for pushing through. But purpose alone isn’t enough - you also need alignment.

1) A clearly defined purpose.
2) Goals that align with their core values.
It’s simple but not always easy. Take a moment to reflect:

- When it comes to building muscle, lifting heavier is NOT always the answer.
Instead, your goal should be to maximize tension in the working muscle. Here’s the best way to do this:
1) Slow down your reps. Make a point to FEEL the tension in the working muscle throughout the entire rep range.
2) Challenge distance and time BEFORE challenging load. Start with a lighter weight and master it before moving on to heavier loads.
3) Don’t just mindl...

- Whether you’re using an incline or a flat bench, keep these dumbbell press tips in mind:
✔️ Pull your shoulder blades back into the bench as the elbows come wide.
✔️ The motion here is an in and an out movement, not an up and down one.
✔️ Focus on activating your pecs and bringing your elbows to the midline of the body. The dumbbells are just accessories to this lift.
