Know pain, No pain
One of the most significant challenges to writing group programming is exercise selection. When I write for my individualized clients I can take into consideration such as injuries… things like history of back pain, knee injury, or an imbalance between shoulders affect the choices I make in movement selection, the number of reps prescribed and

Coach’s Notes Week Three
This is the last week of our current cycle. It’s gonna be a tough one! Next week will be a lighter “deloading” week. (Sorry, that doesn’t mean it will be easier).

Can you feel it in your bones?
Yesterday I snuck in for my third workout at Sublime since construction started. I managed to squeeze in an olympic lifting session before it came time for the open house. I heard one of the guys working on the bathroom crack a joke about getting a hernia if he attempted what I was doing. It
