I've been grounding lately in between my sets. Since my rack is bolted into cement, I'm able to ground by touching my squat rack. When the weather is nice, I just go outside my garage and touch a leaf on a tree for about one minute. The amount of stress after a heavy set of 5 reps is pretty intense. I definitely feel like I recover better in between heavy sets.

Who’s ready to join the 1,000lb club (men) or the 500lb club (ladies)? 💪 I see a lot of fit and active people at the gym but how many of you can say you’re strong enough to hit these milestones? If you're ready to get seriously strong, I’ve got something different for you. I’m a barbell strength coach, not a personal trainer. I specialize in helping everyday people get really strong through progressive, heavy lifting. It’s simple but effective—and fun too! Here’s the best part: we only train 3 times a week. That’s just 3 hours a week to double your strength in 3 months and triple it in 6 months! All you need is the right plan, technique, and coaching. This program is for anyone, whether you’re completely new to lifting or you’ve been hitting the gym but never focused on getting strong. You’ll start with hands-on coaching to nail the barbell lifts, then transition to working out on your own schedule and upload your videos on a custom app. Curious? DM me to learn more—I’ve only got a few spots left! #liftheay #getstrong

Most gym-goers believe they're strength training, but the reality is that only about 1% truly are. #liftheavy #getstrong

🍂 Barbell Strength Training: The Game Changer for Bow Hunters 🏹 Imagine packing out 130lbs of elk. Now, imagine doing it feeling only half as exhausted. Here's how barbell strength training transformed the hunt for some of my clients: 🔹 Before: They could squat about 115lbs and deadlift about 150lbs. 🔹 Now: They're squatting and deadlifting over 300lbs and they did this in less than 6 months! Why does this matter? Effort Reduction: What used to require 25% of their max strength now only needs 12%. That's a significant drop in effort! Better Recovery: They return to camp less tired, waking up refreshed, not sore. The key concept to understand is that for effort reduction to decrease (sub maximal percentage drops), you have to increase your maximal strength in natural human movement patterns. How did they achieve this? Test Your Max: Discover your true strength with barbell exercises like squats, deadlifts, or bench press. The number on the barbell tells the truth of your strength. Progressive Overload: Add a little weight each session. It's simple, but it works wonders. Think you're strong enough? Comment your max lift stats below or DM me to learn how you can double your strength and reduce your sub-maximal effort like they did! #BarbellStrength #BowHunting #OutdoorFitness #liftheavy #getstrong #barbell #squat #deadlift #elkhunting

Good morning. Just made one of the best cup of coffee’s ever using Bean of Fire's coffee and blending it at high speed with 1/2 teaspoon of MCT oil and 1/2 teaspoon of homemade tallow. Trust me, it’s delicious. The tallow adds a bit more earthiness to it while there’s still a hint of sweetness from the mct oil. #coffee

Lifting heavy is hard and builds incredible physical strength but more importantly it builds mental toughness. Humans were meant to do hard things. #liftheavy #getstrong

If you can listen to a Bitcoin podcast while you are lifting, then you are not lifting heavy enough. #lfitheavy #getstrong

My focus is to get my clients stronger in natural human movement patterns. Patterns that we use daily like squatting down and standing back up. Bending over and picking something up. Lifting something over our head. The picture is my wife getting ready to pick up a 50lb fertilizer bag. She's very strong in this movement pattern. If you are not strong in this movement pattern, then you have a higher chance of injuring your back or just being really sore after a day of yard chores. I want your body to be strengthened as a system not in isolation. Because that's how the human body moves. It moves together as a system. Your body parts don't move in isolation. It has natural moving patterns. When you are stronger in these human movement patterers it carries over to all aspects of your life, hobbies, and sports.
