Why haven't you been squatting?
If it's because you're afraid you're going to lift too heavy and get hurt then set your safeties up right like I show in the video.
You should be able to lower more than you can lift.
Starting from the bottom of the rep is a good way to test your true strength as well.

If you're anything like me, then you may get bored of doing the same workouts.
Overtime, you'll see my workouts change as I get stronger or want to challenge myself in other ways.
I'll stick with something long enough to start getting results before I make any major changes because these things take time.
If you been trying this on your own for more than 3 months then there's no shame in asking for some help.
STIMULATE NOURISH RECOVER
Once you master these three fundamentals then you can keep making GAINZ.
DON'T BE SOMEONE WHO PEAKED IN HIGH SCHOOL.
Dig deeper! LFG!

Even the most complicated solutions to problems are just a series of steps.
Take an honest assessment of where you're at versus where you want to be.
Consistently take actions that are in line with the goal.
Most people struggle with consistency in their fitness, nutrition, or mindset.
If you've tried to make positive changes to your habits and behaviors on your own for more than 90 days then you may benefit from the knowledge of someone else who has already walked the path.
DM me "Coach" and I'll see if I can help.

I had a flat tire after the Bitcoin Day Miami on Saturday.
It was a bummer no doubt but I was grateful that I had the tools needed and it wasn't raining.
Maybe I parked in a bad place and got a nail in my tire, maybe my tires should have been replaced sooner, but none of that mattered, so I focused on what I needed to do to get my girlfriend and I off the side of the turnpike.
Setbacks are bound to happen and when they do try not to let your mind get clouded in negativity but rather focus on how to get out of the situation and how to prevent it in the future.

Performing single-leg Romanian deadlifts offers numerous benefits and flexibility for maintaining consistency in your fitness routine: π¦΅π½π¦΅π½π¦΅π½
1. Minimal Equipment Requirement: All you need is a single dumbbell or kettlebell, making it accessible for home workouts or while traveling.
2. Improved Balance and Stability: Engages core muscles and stabilizers to maintain balance, enhancing overall stability and reducing the risk of injury in other activities.
3. Functional Strength: Mimics real-life movements like bending over to pick something up, enhancing functional strength for daily activities.
4. Isolation of Muscles: Helps isolate and strengthen each leg individually, addressing muscle imbalances and preventing injury.
5. Versatile: Can be performed with various equipment or even bodyweight, allowing for progression as strength improves.
6. Increased Range of Motion: Improves flexibility and mobility in the hamstrings, glutes, and lower back.
7. Time Efficiency: Works multiple muscle groups simultaneously, maximizing workout efficiency in limited time.
8. Customizable Intensity: Easily adjustable by changing the weight or range of motion, catering to different fitness levels and goals.
9. Muscle Engagement: Targets the posterior chain, including the hamstrings, glutes, and lower back, for a comprehensive lower body workout.
10. Convenience: Can be performed anywhere with enough space, providing the flexibility to maintain consistency in your fitness routine even when traveling or unable to make it to the gym.
I did a few sets of these while I was on my run so if you're already doing cardio then add in a few movements like this to start working on building strength. Stop making excuses for why you haven't done it already and just get it done.

Look at me showing out for some SWAG π
I did so well on the pull-ups they gave me a T-shirt instead of a towel.
