Friday Thoughts 127
Welcome to this week’s edition of Friday Thoughts-where I share what’s been on my mind lately. Enjoy.
Party Time
Save the date for Taylor’s going away party at the gym.
WED APRIL 29
5-7PM
TRAPBAR Love
I love trapbar deadlifts. They’re so good at building leg strength without stressing out the back too much. More than that, they can teach you how to really brace and get good leverage to drive up. I’ve had more and more people trapbar deadlifting over the past year and the results are showing. People are getting strong, feeling good and becoming better movers.
SPECIFIC TRaPBAR
Good training is doing basic strength and conditioning consistently over time. Check out the Masters champ Rory McIlroy’s trapbar deadlifts. More than that, I appreciate the commentary of this video. While he’s referencing sport specific training and whether a golfer and a hockey player should train differently, the bigger message is that the simple, basic strength and conditioning makes better athletes.
Innovative Shoe Rack Wall….Good Execution!
Enjoy this throwback, 7 years ago today.
That’s all for today, see you in the gym!
