what i have learnt this week
It's quite a lot!
1) If someone cannot do full squat, it may not be flexibility/mobility problem, it may be poor stability!
2) Trigger points are nasty, it can slow down a lot of training progress. As seen this week, 2 of my clients suffered cramps.
3) Do the "fitness homework" that i asked you guys to. They will help. If you want good progress, follow it. Having time off from diet every now and then isn't going to help.
4) Assisted pull/chin up machines SUCK! They do not train your stability, thus, slowing down a lot of progress. I tried band pull up with only 1 of my clients, he's seeing improvement, whereas for those who use assisted machines, they don't improve.
5) Sigh, with regard to point (4), i cannot bring in any equipment into clubfit.
6) With regard to point (5), i want a personal gym!!
7) Trained another old client of mine today, oh mine! She has slimmed down so much. From pretty to VERY VERY PRETTY! Congratulation K******!
8) Though you have quite a few trigger points, but they are not as bad.
9) If someone cannot do good form for any movement/exercise, there are hyperactive muscle.
10) In order to allow these muscle to relax, what can you do? haha
it's none other than foam rolling.
11) Muscle memory plays a BIG role in my progress. So, i guess that's why my progress may seem fast to a lot of people. moreover, i trained 3 times a week. That's 20+ sessions already! You guys are 50% of mine.
12) light workout after workout day can help in a few ways.
a) recovery because more blood are transported to the muscle
b) it help to keep you active physically, thus, more progress.
slightly more updates to my clients.
I have around 15 clients right now.
2 gain mass, but they see good strength increase. Still a lot of trigger points just uncovered by me this week. (never roll properly ah Zack! ahha)
1 gain strength/improve napfa/ippt. Well, he's seeing result obviously. He is very dilligent in doing all the fitness homework. I can see a lot of improvement in his posture too.
The rest? All fat loss. Can i say 80/20? All but 2 are seeing progress.
Guys and ladies, i know it's tough to find time to workout, even that 10min i asked for everyday. Just try. If not, i may consider letting you all stop PT and save the money instead.
I'm very satisfied with 2 girls though. Good result in deadlift.
1 is doing 40kg for 3 reps, another 30kg for 5 reps. hehehe.. can go own bodyweight deadlift soon!
