What's up, Achievers?! New look, who dis?! We're back at it again, but with new artwork, a new intro, a new song, new everything! Well, of course, the same positive and encouraging vibes! We polled all of you on IG recently asking whether you would prefer a Q+A format or Deep Dives where we hone in on a singular topic, and the overwhelming majority of you chose the Deep Dive format so we're going to be prioritizing that! For this episode, we dive deep on kettlebells, their benefits, and a step-by-step breakdown of the swing! You can download the free PDF guide we reference here: http://www.achievefitnessonline.com/power If you'd like to jump ahead to the "meat" of the episode, you can goto [5:19]. If you'd like to jump ahead to the breakdown of the KB Swing, you can head here [12:16]. 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, sweat out; happiness in! Jason and Lauren ...
What's up, Achievers?! Sorry for the hiatus! It's been difficult to time our usual podcast time around Kendrick's feeding and napping schedule so we decided to not stress and just take a week off. Still struggling a bit, but we're back! In the first question, we cover why you might see some very specific strategies like excessive chin tucking during hip thursts and aggresive pelvic tilting during squats (1:39). In the next question, we talk about why someone's back might round when receiving a barbell clean (6:39). Finally, we flip the script a little bit and discuss strategies to gain weight and get into a caloric surplus for all you hardgainers out there (10:11). 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!
