I have referenced the Ancestral Health Symposium a number of times on my site so you can learn from the very best people in the nutrition and health field.
If you missed these two articles and you really want to learn how to eat, move and be healthy then you must read both of these –
Kelly spent a year posting a video DAILY (massively impressive) on how one can improve their mobility in various areas. You can look back over his entire body of work on his youtube page here. If you are new to his work then you really have been living under a rock and need to get working on your mobility daily for 15-20mins. If you’re one of those people that spends hours driving or sitting at a desk then your shoulders and hips are going to be super stiff unless you spend some time working on freeing them up.
His lecture is an excellent watch as it supports much of what I have been saying for years regarding running excessively or if it’s your sole form of exercise. Running more (roughly 30mins) is not only not beneficial but can actually be very harmful. Exercise e.g. running is good mmmmkay but more and at an excessive level is damaging.
Every week I train with a good friend of mine Jack Wise and for the past few weeks we have taken to going for runs through forest trails or up and down parts of the Wicklow or Dublin mountains. This came about because Jack was having some back issues which didn’t allow him to deadlift or squat heavy but could still run. It was also partly influenced by my reading (well should say listening as I now listen to more books on my iphone/kindle than I acutally read) of Bill Byrson’s fantastic book A Walk in the Woods.
So you want to buy a new pair of runners or workout shoes but can’t decide on which ones? The video I have done below will help you make up your mind.
One of the hardest parts of my job is getting clients to stick to the darn plan. Every week I work with clients that can arrive super motivated and ready to train hard and keep their food on track to then discover a few weeks later they haven’t ‘had enough time’ to do 3-4 workouts per week each lasting about 20-30mins or maintain their nutrition to support fat loss and increased energy.
Want to still train and stay in shape while travelling on holidays or with work?
You will love this so as in this post I outline my top travel workouts and the only piece of equipment you will need is a woody/power band. These are really strong bands (those thera bands physios give out are rubbish and for rehab only) which you can buy here and here
I honestly have the above conversation at least once a week and this article is especially for all those that need to know what they should be eating for optimal health and fitness.
Now here comes the easy part, all I’ve done it typed key words into my wifes blog and it will throw up relevant recipes, crazy I know! Let’s get the ball rolling with breakfast.
I have been meaning to shoot a tutorial video on how to do bar muscle ups for quite some time as I was asked some questions on how to get them by a client. This is such a fantastic exercise and I think it’s a movement that shows a perfect example of athleticism in motion.
So to Stephen and everyone else that can benefit from it here you go –
I find it interesting that there is always such constant attention given to ‘amazing abs exercises’ and ‘flatten your tummy in minutes’ programs that are constantly dished out by some trainers. It’s obvious that all the stomach exercises little or [...]
