Maintaining good relationships with people around takes you a long way to keep up a good mental health.   Stress is an integral part of us & believe it or not, its not going anywhere.

Feeling low, anxious, or struggling to keep attention are some symptoms that you are stressed.

by admin in Workouts 0 comments
It’s not a flashy move, but back extensions are critical for strength and stability,   There’s a movement term that Tim Anderson of Original Strength came up with: good, better, and best. Even when a movement is performed poorly, it is still “good” because all movement beats sitting on the couch. But the amount of times I’ve seen lifters make back extension mistakes throughout the years puts Tim’s ethos to the test. The back extension exercise, when performed correctly, targets the lower back, glute, and hamstring muscles through a large range of motion, allowing for greater strength and hypertrophy. And It’s a highly versatile exercise that can be loaded in several ways for added size and strength. The trouble is this exercise is either neglected for far more TikTok-worthy exercises or just rushed through sloppily. Correct form works “best” with the back extension. Here we’ll learn how to do this awesome exercise, what is needed, and some common back extension mistakes stopping you from getting the best out of it.   How To Do The Bodyweight Back Extension Secure your feet on the back-extension machine with your hips above the padding. Cross your arms over your chest. Then keep your […]

by admin in Workouts 0 comments
This dumbbell variation will be sure to blast your pecs in a unique manner.   The dumbbell squeeze press goes by a few names, like the hex or champagne press, but they all mean the same thing—more gains for your chest.

But sometimes, this is not possible because you have plateaued or are working around an injury. If one or the other or both is the issue creating muscular tension in different ways helps you stay on the gain train. This is where the dumbbell squeeze press comes in. By creating tension by pressing the dumbbells together before you press, you create a flood of muscular tension in your chest by making a lighter weight feel heavy.   What is the Dumbbell Squeeze Press? The dumbbell squeeze press is a dumbbell bench press variation in which you take a pair of hex dumbbells, press them together lightly, and perform a bench press. This bench press variation is part close […]
