Reverse lunges are the best exercises you aren’t doing. If you want massive quads, do these. If you want less knee pain, do these. If you want to be a champion, do these. You can thank me in 6 weeks.

Spanish squats are undefeated against knee pain. You won’t find a better exercise to get your knees feeling like Christmas morning. Add them in and thank me later.

Lateral lunges are the secret sauce to stronger knees. You probably aren’t doing enough of these. Get you moving side to side. Light up your groin muscles. Say goodbye to your knee pain.

Tendons NEED load (bodyweight, dumbbells, kettlebells, barbells, literally any kind of weight). Tendons don't need more ice, tape, rest, massage, needles, bands, straps. Tendon issue? LOAD the tendon.

High school athletes: You have the rest of your life to master yoga, train for marathons, compete in CrossFit and look like a body builder. From 13-22, train like an athlete. Your future self will thank you.

My thoughts on strength training in 2021: Unilateral work is often too light. Bilateral work is often too slow. Rotational work is often too heavy. Frontal plane work is not enough. Plyos need more intensity, less volume. More timed sprints. #growthmindset

What are you supposed to do when you pull your hamstring? Rest? Ice? Do nothing? If you follow me long enough, you know those aren’t the answers (unless you want to be on the couch watching reruns of The Office all winter). But what is? Here is what I have my clients do:
