That day when I went to @tracetan 's plc to retrieve my tripod and to get a workout in ?? Reminded of days when Renee was under 1 and it wasnt the easiest time ???? The feeding and the (non) sleeping… Happy to have a 9yo who can ownself eat and shower and (somedays) sleep. . . A gentle reminder to mommies to not be too hard on yourself .Get some exercise in if you can. Else ease in to it. I'm not sure I could've started an exercise routine when Renee was that age cos I remember being tired all the time. I think it is important to take small steps but most importantly, listen to your body ?? . . ps: for those asking what sorta workouts to do for beginners / abs / cardio / 20mins, pls go to YouTube and search "workout 《your requests》 popsugarfitness fitness blender" to get a list of videos you can try! ?? . . #jmeworksout #beactive #bestrong #doitforyou #remindertoworkout #homeworkout #noequipment

Always good to work on core strength! We need it for everyday living cos it increases our balance and stability making it easier for us to reach for that item on a top shelf or to pick something up from the floor. Plus it gives us more toned abs 😉 . . Here's a short 12min workout for core strength : First, go to spotify and search tabata songs. Each song is 4mins, and an instructor will tell you to start for 20s and rest for 10s. Alternate the exercises below everytime you hear the instructor say go. When you've finished the 3 songs, you're done! Can? . . Song 1 : bridges & plank with knee dips song 2 : spider planks, plank leg lifts, toe taps and scissors leg raises song 3 : shoulder taps, pushups, bicycles and in n out. . . #jmeworksout #dontsayinehshare #beactive #bestrong #doitforyou #coreexercises #just3songs #12minworkout #just12mins

again, i’m hesitant to post about the jumpback ? because a) mine’s definitely not perfect/ideal, b) there are MANY physical and technical elements that go into executing a jumpback ? and c) i can only speak from my own body’s capability/structure/experience. but i thought i’d share one aspect of the #jumpback (and #jumpthrough) here – i.e. how to clear your feet through your arms without touching the mat. which, if you think about it, is half the battle won… in the #primaryseries, there are all these poses that work on your ankle and hip mobility, from the standing poses to the seated poses. i suppose the main goal is to be able to put yourself in a full lotus and stay comfortably in it for a long time, say, in meditation. but nvm meditation – you know what else they’re good for? uh huhhh: jumpbacks and jumpthroughs. so here’s the key ?: #baddhakonasana. in ashtanga, we turn the soles of the feet upwards like an opened book. if your ankles are mobile enough to let you keep your feet engaged in that position like in baddha konasana (coupled with strong hip flexors that allow you to curl into the tiniest ball when you lift up), there’s a good chance your feet will float through your arms. they may not float all the way back at first, but it’s a start! ?? ➡️ in the second vid, i’ve attempted to show how pointy feet and flexed feet don’t have the power of the baddha konasana feet. ? anyway, hope *some* of this makes sense to you guys! #hanadoesjumpbacks #ashtanga #research

A little synchronised deadlift variations with the little brown beast @farreezrosman.pt . 8 reps 80 kg conventional deadlift and 190kg hex bar deadlift . If you are new to deadlift , it’s easier to learn proper /efficient technique using a hex bar(trap bar ) as the weight distribution is closer to the lifter’s centre of gravity , therefore it easy to remain upright . The grip used is more neutral( arms by the side )which makes it more comfortable to hold (your arm should never assist by pulling or yanking the barbell btw) but arm position makes a difference when u are lifting a load from the ground ! These are some benefit for using the hex bar , I very much prefer the good old conventional deadlift ! If you are new to this movement I recommend engaging a trainer to go through proper technique to avoid learning poor form and to establish easier learning curve so you can get stronger faster ! Boom ?

???????? ??? ????? ?? ???!⁣ ⁣ Staying true to your training program and being diligent with the recommended exercises is fantastic.⁣ ⁣ There’s a reason why your coach allocated the respective exercises for your program.⁣ ⁣ Whether your goal is to get stronger, lose weight, gain weight…⁣ ⁣ Your program should reflect that.⁣ ⁣ At the same time, it should still be flexible enough to allow you to pick exercises that you also enjoy.⁣ ⁣ Eg. A client of mine really enjoys doing pull-ups, even though at this stage we should be prioritising the lat-pulldowns to build a base of strength.⁣ ⁣ So do I give him a firm “no”? Nope.⁣ ⁣ Instead, I made the program fit his goals and preferences.⁣ ⁣ Just because you want progress, doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy the journey!⁣ ⁣ Lately I’ve been playing around with movements like these – trying to get stronger on them and do more reps.⁣ ⁣ ???

With this particular ‘bulking’ program I’m on, I still want to keep on top of the cardio (and keep the body fat down), so my morning sessions have included a ‘tri-set’ of ‘front and back’ (agonist/antagonist muscle groups) and a 60sec balls out, cardio bashing. It’s worked well actually, with the main weights session in the evening. x8 single arm, unilateral cable push (with bungee) x8 single contralateral row (with bungee) 60sec x2KB snap 60sec rest x8 sets ## #fitness #exercise #training #menshealth #singapore #man #mensfashion #menshairstyle #motivation #success #style #beard #bodybuilding #fit #getfit #fitfam #asia #fitnessmotivation #gym #business #entrepreneur #fashion #kent #architecture #lifestyle #life #happy #selfie #truth

HOW TO COPE WITH GENERAL BACK PAIN Disclaimer : I’m not a certified therapist who specializes in treatment of back pain etc. just a regular yoga practitioner who has had back pain due to bad habits formed over the years and a tiny bit of training here and there. So if you do have severe and debilitating pain, please consult your doctor or specialist. This is a very general #RuthsYogaTips on releasing #backpain via #myofascialrelease with the aids of sports massage balls (they’re my life saviors!) hence you will not see scientific yoga terms or exact locations simply because, pain is subjective to each individual and the spots varies from person to person. It is also impossible to put chunks of words on pictures. For that, please check out some of the wonderful physiotherapists here on IG. What I’m sharing is just the general locations and you can pinpoint your pain spot yourself. . . This post has been a long time coming since I used to have back pain until I practiced yoga. With this pregnancy ?? , my old habits of terrible posture and uneven weight gain in the front section have caused pretty acute pain in my bum area a couple of weeks ago. A little early for pregnancy-caused back pain but mine’s probably due to old issues as well. In any case, lotsa mummies have these back issues so hopefully these #yogatips will help. . What you will need is a pair of good sports massage balls. They last for ages and you can practically use it on every part of your body. Swipe for the general spots that trigger or refer back pain – it takes you from shoulder to the bum plus entry methods. Last picture shows my favourite tools for release, a must-have for every household imo. . . Tag mummies or anyone with back pain and spread the love! // #RuthsPregnancy #16weekspregnant #yogatips #pregnancy #pregnancyworkout #yogateacher #yogamedicine

3 STAPLES EXERCISE TO BUILD A SUPERHERO CHEST⁣ ?️ ⁣ Swipe right➡️ to see all 3 exercises.⁣ ⁣ ▪️Flat barbell bench press⁣ 4 sets x 4-6 reps⁣ This exercise works the pectoral major which is the middle to lower part of the chest. As the chest muscle is split into 2 sections, only 2 movement are needed to stimulate the chest and grow. ⁣ ▪️ Incline dumbbell press⁣ 4 sets x 6-8 reps⁣ This exercise works the pectoral minor which is the upper part of the chest. This movement is the secondary movement for a fully developed chest.⁣ ⁣ ▪️ Cable chest flys (incline & regular)⁣ 4 sets x 12-15 reps⁣ This exercise is like the icing on the cake. The pressing movements are the "bread and butter" for a strong chest while this add extra volume to your workout. ⁣ For beginners, work on a lighter load and higher rep ranges, somewhere between 10-12 reps for compound exercises eg; Barbell and dumbbell chest press. You might want to work on proper form & execution of the exercise to prevent injuries.⁣ ➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖#fitlife #fit #gymvideo #gymdaily #gym #gyminspiration #gymlife #fitness #fitnesslife #fitnessmotivation #igfitness #igbodybuilding #musclefitness #instagramfitness #workoutmotivation #workouttips #igvideo #yolo #chestworkout #bodybuilding #bodybuildingmotivation #fitfam #igfitfam #fitspo #strength #bestronger #weightlifting #igsg⁣

No matter where you are at along your fitness journey, being patient and staying consistent is key to unlocking your potential. -⁣ Your journey will always be accompanied by time, but most of it, alone. -⁣ So instead of being impatient and questioning why it has not happened for you yet, push your thoughts into finding joy in the journey of watching your body change, both in how you look and how you feel.⁣ -⁣ So here is the thing about wanting it to happen NOW…⁣ -⁣ You CAN'T and it will NEVER HAPPEN. -⁣ The reality is that you can choose not to be patient, but that will not make the time go by any faster.⁣ Time works on it's own and you can never control it. – So I really hope that you embrace the progress and enjoy the journey. Its quite possibly a greater achievement than to reach your goal having not found the excitement everytime you hit the gym. Along the way, you get to learn how your body reacts and respond to different trainings stimuli and different diet approach. -⁣ So be patient, because what other choice do you have? ? ➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖#fitlife #fitfam #gymmotivation #gym #gymdaily #gymlife #bodybuilding #bodybuildingmotivation #igfitfam #igfitness #fitfam #fitness #mucle #musclefitness #trainhard #patience #motivation #yolo #strong #strength #exercise #healthy #beastmode #igbodybuilding #f4f

Trust the process! That's the same word I remind this young lad every so often. Time really flies, it's been 10 months since I started coaching @elvis_neotified aka the @vistify and it's been a hell of a ride. He came to me at 77kg, with a 38 inch chest measurement, and told me he aspire to compete in a men's physique competition. I started increasing his calories n work a lot on his training to bring up his chest, back and delts. He improved tremendously and he trained really hard, to the point everyone in the gym will notice his work ethics and it motivates me to train myself harder everytime I see that. His only concern was that he is starting to lose his conditioning and the 4 packs abs he maintained for awhile. I only told him 3 words.. Trust the process! Eventually he reach 87kg in May, n I realise its time for him to do a mini cut while retaining or even build muscle thru the cut, which we did. Then there's this point where he felt like he shrank n felt disappointed, that's when I knew its time to convince him by showing him what he has sow for the past 8 months and enlist him for the @fitnessironmanofficial contest and prep him for about 8 weeks for the show. Eventually he hit 72.5kg with a 43 inch chest and a 27 inch waist. Saw his lower abs for the first time too. We also work on his posing which he was eventually second guessing the poses too but eventually he managed to learn the ropes and garner several praises for his performance that day. Im very proud of your performance Elvis, thanks for trusting the process and for giving ur 100% thru the journey but that being said we both know this is just the start, let's get to work n make sure the next time you step on stage again, you emerge victorious standing at the middle.
