I work with a lot of busy middle age adults.

Both men and women.

I was finishing up my football career as an offensive lineman weighing in around 250-260lbs.

I was strong, but there was a lot of unwanted fat on my frame.

I knew I needed to make some changes. I needed to drop some bodyfat. I needed to get in better cardiovascu...

I hate to break it to you, but the summer is all but over.

I know, I’m not happy about it either.

Anyone who has spent ample time in the gym knows all about the tried and true, big rock lifts. The squats. The deadlifts. The bench presses. The chin ups.

These are the exercises that make up a big chunk of most training programs.

With the supplement industry reportedly bringing in over $151 billion (yes, thats a B), you can't go very far without having supplement ads being thrown in your face.

Every supplement has claims that make you want to buy, but we all know most of the claims are a pile of BS.

In a world where we sit far too often (1 in 4 US adults sits 8+ hours a day!), improving hip mobility is critical for functional and pain-free movement.
