"Start where you are. Use what you have. Do what you can."- Arthur Ashe

Everyone can reach success, some easier than others. Use the ressources that you have and stop complaining about those you lack. You got this.

Now take a quick 5 minutes of your day to give this video a listen. Quitting is for loosers, and you're not a looser. Keep pushing no matter what, the rewards are worth it.

Workout of the Week

Boulder Shoulders

We welcome you back this week with another great workout for a muscle that’ll make you look HUGE. In fact, the shoulders are the portion of your body that will bring your whole physique upwards. The front, middle and rear delts are simultaneously making the front, side and back of your physique look jacked. It is very important to train these muscles in the proper way to obtain good results. Here’s our 5 exercise shoulder workout for you guys:  

Warm Up

  • Stretch your shoulders by doing a dead hang on the pull up bar for a minute

Section one

  • 6 to 8 reps of Arnold Press

  • 2 mins rest

  • 10 to 12 reps of seated bent over lateral raises

  • 2 mins rest

Repeat 4 times

Section two

  • 6 to 10 reps of barbell military press

  • 1 min rest

  • 10 reps of armpit rows

  • 2 mins rest

Repeat 3 times

Section three

  • 6 to 8 reps of rear delt machine

  • 1 min rest

Repeat 4 times

Now Let's get to Work!

Barbel Lunge

The barbell lunge is a classic. Be sure to lift a weight you are comfortable with controlling, you don’t want the barbell to fall during a set because you lifted too heavy! To prevent this, you can also use the Smith machine of your local gym for increased stability.

Caturanga Dandasana or The Four Limbed Staff Pose

The four limbed staff pose is really just a plank pose, but not on your elbows. You can also compare it to a push up position, when you’re on the lowest portion of the exercise. All in all, this exercise is a resistance exercise to warm you up for a good upper body workout.  

Workout song of the day: Playtime by SL

Another UK drill, and frankly, this one is our favorite. There’s just something special about how SL delivers the bars on this one. The beat slaps and it’ll make your head shake. It’s in his simplicity that Playtime gets you in the mood. Playtime, for you it’s showtime, give it all you got on this beat.
