So under-appreciated:
Give everyone you talk to your complete undivided attention.

The Dunning-Kruger effect in a nutshell. Think before you believe someone who sounds very confident…

The ultimate purpose of education is to change an empty mind into an open one.
If you wanna be a good teacher, teach open-mindedness, teach enthusiasm, inquisitiveness, heuristics, and values. 🧠

3 Reasons I’m a Going to Still Be Squatting When I’m 85 (most people don’t think about...)
1) I don’t want to have SOMEONE ELSE help me off the toilet
2) I want to EASILY walk up and down stairs
3) I want to be able to JUMP out of bed & live my life free of restrictions.

I want to live in a 🌎 where instead of athletes spending the last 10 minutes of their workout trying to shred their core with “ab work” they opt for isometrics that build their core for improved performance:
Examples:
- Suitcase Carries
- Bird Dogs
- Pallof Press

What most think as “core training”:
- Sit Ups
- Russian Twists
- Side Bends
What most don’t realize is “core training” if done correctly:
- Squat
- Deadlift
- Bent Over Row
- Single Leg RDL
- Basically any lift performed with proper mechanics...
