Form First Functional Fitness

Turkish Gets Ups.... that is usually all I have to say to my class to hear a bunch of groans and moans. They are a challenge but also a great exercise that you can perfect more and more over time. I won’t make you do them with a barbell, typically they are done with dumbbells or kettlebells. Check out my video on n my story to see how they are done!!! #turkishgetup #corework #balance #balancetraining #coreworkout #fitnessmodel #flexibility #flexible #abworkouts #tough #trythese

Today felt good! I could hardly fit anymore weight on the bar...time for a bigger bar if I want to do these rack pulls heavier! The rack pull is part of todays workout to get us trained to lift heavier during our deadlifts. Don’t sleep on these. Doing these will help you improve your deadlift more than JUST deadlifting will. The same kind of approach can be taken for all our heavy lifts. You can do different motions like rack pulls or good mornings and still get better at ...the target exercise. Want your bench press heavier? Do some varied grips at lighter weight, or try do more weight then you can idle and see how slowly you can bring it down. Do that one with a partner of course or at least ask for a spot. If you’re not struggling to lift the weight chances are it’s not heavy enough. - - #f4training #stockton #california #bestofsanjoaquin #formfirst #functionalfitness #gymsofstockton #fitness #gym #fit #workout #motivation #fitnessmotivation #bodybuilding #training #instagood #like #lifestyle #health #gymlife #healthy #fitspo #follow #fitfam #strong #muscle #fitnessaddict - - #f4training #stockton #california #bestofsanjoaquin #formfirst #functionalfitness #gymsofstockton #fitness #gym #fit #workout #motivation #fitnessmotivation #bodybuilding #training #instagood #like #lifestyle #health #gymlife #healthy #fitspo #follow #fitfam #strong #muscle #fitnessaddict

Great job today 8:10 class you crushed that circuit workout! @kimberlyjoy_817 @mrsanadon209 @tikos_life @lisssaaa18 ... @geryothecheerio @marlenecoiffure See more

Fuck cardio! Today is lifting day!!! You can get that cardio stuff done with me tomorrow. Focusing on cardio to lose weight is the completely wrong approach. You need 3-5 days a week of weight training and you can add in cardio or yoga between those to help burn more calories on your active rest days $35 for your first two weeks! ... - #f4training #stocktonca #bestofsanjoaquin #formfirst #functionalfitness #stocktongyms #209 #deltacollege #pacific #visitstockton #exercise #gymmotivation #photooftheday #happy #eatclean #diet #selfie #train #instafit #goals #fitnesslife #getfit #gains #weightloss #healthylifestyle #legday

Today is yoga day and WOD day depending on class time, look at my story for those times. @tikos_life has seen the value in yoga and I know if you try it you will too. My yoga class isn’t about spirituality, it is focused on attaining the flexibility needed to do proper lifting from on things like squats and deadlifts. My yoga routine will also help to alleviate soreness in your muscles and your joints more than static stretches will. It’s also a great way to practice the ...deep breath that you should be utilizing during your normal workouts. Core strength, yoga will help you build more core strength than doing a bunch of crunches will. Abdominal muscles are not primarily utilized for movement, but they are there to stabilize movements. Some people think yoga is too easy, they aren’t putting enough effort in n to the poses. Some people think it’s too hard, they aren’t breathing enough or doing it with enough regularity. You need to incorporate some yoga or active stretches at least twice a week. Let me get off my soap box now... but seriously get your asses here! . . . . . #yogalove #yogalife #yogaposes #meditation #yogagirl #stretching #instagood #workout #handstand #yogi #flexible #flexibility #yogaeverydamnday #igyoga #yogaeverywhere #splits #contortion #yogisofinstagram #yogaeveryday #fitness #yogapose #gymnastics #notyoga #stretch #yogajourney #yogateacher #yogachallenge #balance #yogapractice #yogainspiration

This will literally happen and it’s so sad, people just don’t know what to do at the gym. Not to mention running on a treadmill is actually an inferior exercise to running outdoors. Don’t be confused at the gym, come to my gym and I’ll actually give you good workouts and help with form! #gymhumor #beintheknow #groupclass #personaltrainer #exercise #treadmillssuck

I still love this shirt design! Who’s ready to order their own My Gym is Essential shirt or tank top?! Next week we are starting the second order for this design so keep an eye open for the link! @toccodivinosalon @kimberlyjoy_817 @optimumadvertising #F4 #mygymisessential #stocktonca #gymsofstockton #209fitness

We are ready to be open even if it is at 10% capacity! Which is just silly btw but at least the government is allowing me to make a living again, so generous of our elected officials. DM me about our two week trial for $35, you can start today if you’d like. #openforbusiness #stocktonca #gymlife #maskon #notreally #masksarestupid #twoweektrial
