Show Notes

What's up, Achievers?! A fun episode for you all today with slightly different questions than normal! First, we talk about how to improve your handstand walks. Even, if you can't perform a full handstand just yet (like me - Jason), you'll still gain a lot of insight on the process from Lauren "State Handstand Champion" Pak xD (4:04). Next, we expand on a topic we covered in episode 51 about the difference between fast and slow twitch muscle fibers. Lila asked if she should just not do any power training whatsoever because she is more slow-twitch dominant (12:13). Finally, we discussed how to deal with tennis elbow and tendinitis. We had a pretty specific answer here because we were able to actually gain some more context on the person's workout history. Our answer might have been totally different had we not stumbled upon their feed so we might tackle tendinitis more generally in the future (17:44)! We hope you enjoyed this episode! If you did, we'd love you forever if you left a rating and review on iTunes - it seriously helps us out a lot! Please DM us @achievefitnessboston on Instagram if you have any questions you'd like us to answer. Until next time, Peace, Love, and Muscles!
