Today I go over the fundamental differences between Bodybuilding and Powerlifting. I love both realms and types of lifters as they all strive to level up in life in their own way. We've coached lifters from both realms and have nothing but great experiences with each athlete. Edit by Adrian Ricalde... Powerlifting Images by @immortalbarbell See more

Today I go over the best types of supplements to assist your fitness quest in muscle gain and weight loss. There's pretty much three supplements that are tried and true. Whey Protein/Plant Base Protein, Creatine and Pre-Workout. edit by Adrian Dale Ricalde

In today's video I go over what type of cardio movement power athletes should do to prevent them from dying. I know a lot of strength and power athletes hate cardio but it's very important to know the we should not be negating rule #1 which is Don't Die. Edit by Adrian Ricalde

Today I go over the basics of how to start when you want to lose belly fat in one week. We've all been there, trying to recover from the holiday festivities, or the lack there of so we drank our misery away, and trying to get back on the fitness wagon. I go over three simple things to get you started and to start seeing change in your first week. ... Stop eating like shit Move more Repeat In the video I do in depth of how it's slightly more than just those things but essentially that is what we're trying to do.

Today we go over a great exercise to help you improve your shoulder mobility and strength. This exercise uses the steel mace, an odd piece of strength equipment that you can use anywhere as long as you don't attack people with it. The steel mace swing is one of the foundational movements of the steel mace and helps improve strength and mobility of your shoulder girdle. It also challenges your trunk and stamina! Give it a try!... #hscsquad #nerdoutworkout #gobeyond #strengthandconditioining #steelmace #onnit #tutorial

Today we go over one way to do a kettlebell snatch. this movement is great to develop hip and shoulder strength and mobility. It's a great strength endurance movement and can be a great addition to anyone's strength and conditioning program. Filmed by Adrian Dale Ricalde

Angelo has been a consistent client with us since the days we didn't even have a brick and mortar spot. He's been through a hell of a journey with his health and fitness and he is now getting back at it. He's also bringing the positive vibes and hilarious energy. Love this guy. #hscsquad #strengthandconditioning #gobeyond #micdup #smallbusiness #localgym #personaltraining

Improving Strength Tracy started with us with the goal to gain lean body mass, strength and to get back control of her life. She's a tech worker that was tired of being inactive and needed guidance. She loved our fandom and fitness vibe which is one of the reasons she reached out. We always talk about Overwatch and the latest in what's going on in the gaming industry!... Wanted to highlight her work ethic as she's grown so much since her first rep with us! @adrianricalde #hscsquad #strengthandconditioning #nerdoutworkout #gobeyond #sanjosegym #personaltrainer #bayarea #personaltraining #smallgrouptraining #hscgym #gymlife #fitness #fitspo #strength #sanjosecoach #sanjosepersonaltrainer #siliconvalley #training

Jefferson Deadlifts When your squad rolls up to the gym with Jefferson Deadlifts for the day. The one true deadlift.... #hscsquad #strengthandconditioning #nerdoutworkout #gobeyond #sanjosegym #jeffersondeadlift #deadlift #powerlifter #powerlifting #bodybuilding #workout #fitspo #tiktok #rideit #fitness #legday #gymsquad #gym #hscgym #cardio #dance #wearamask

This is an actual tutorial of how we coach the deadlift movement to our clients. It was tempting to make a humorous one but once in a while I gotta teach something somewhat serious. If you need some basic tips on how to do the Deadlift if you've never done it this video is for you. We usually start with the stick and coach the hinge movement and once people get the movement down we graduate them to the bar are build from there. ... Hope this helps! #hscsquad #strengthandconditioning #gobeyond #sanjosepersonaltraining #sanjosegym #deadlift

Please watch our new Covid-19 Gym Usage Tutorial before proceeding with your training session. Thank you and have a great day at Hyper Strength and Conditioning #hscsquad #sanjosegym #personaltraining #socialdistancing #nowopenindoors #ridetutorial #gobeyond

If you struggle with constantly checking the weight scale and that number doesn't change much but you truly feel that your body is changing this post is for you. #hscsquad #strengthandconditioning #nerdoutworkoutpodcast #fatloss

Squad Up Closing your business down for several months while trying to take care of your team and clients is one hell of an obstacle. We're fortunate enough ...to achieve a few crucial wins along this path in order to stay in business. One of those wins is how my team is pulling together. I was taught by a wise man you "Manage things and lead people." He said you'll know you're doing it right when they start pulling through for you in times of great distress. I must admit that times got really dark a few months into this shut down. I started worrying about how we were gonna pull through to next year. I started feeling alone as any small business owner would feel during these trying times. My inner voice started spiraling; What's the next move? What's the right move? What hard decisions need to be made now? How do I lead this team and business to the otherside of this pandemic when there's really no proven game plan for this? And then I'm hit with a question from an outside voice; "What can WE do to help?" And that voice was from the team who have been with me up to this point. I was reminded that as the "Head Guy" I'm not in this alone and if I've been doing my job right my squad would step up when it's really needed. And that they did. I'm so proud of @anthony.perez___ and @ivyt for banding together, starting things back up and adapting to this new age of training. They've grown a ton since they started with us and now they continue to lead. I'm proud of @steelflexx_ @arthur_s @ssjperformance @jasontaylor27 @koolkalmken @jahkaidaddy @swolechalla @danuijuzhong @coachingbykilo and even our interns @bhoistaaan and Zoren who've been doing a ton of work behind the scenes to make shit like you see here possible. We are constantly evolving and going beyond. If you supported us in one way, shape or form I will not let you down. Here's to the next level. #hscsquad #strengthandconditioning #nerdoutworkout #gobeyond #sanjosegym #personaltrainer #bayarea #onlinetraining #sanjosecoach #siliconvalley #training #steelmace #outdoortraining #outdoorworkout #socialdistancing #wearamask #community #squad #adapt #fitness #fitspo

Out of thousands of clients we’ve worked with only TWO have actually had metabolism issues. One client back in 2007 and another who is an actual member who shall not be named. That individual is still showing up and doing work! If you’re one of those who blame your own metabolism being slower than average I have a few things to say...

Today I go over Speed Strength vs Strength Speed and how they contribute to overall power development. I use examples such as Reinhardt from Overwatch and Thor from Avengers. If you're new to training this may seem like a foreign concept but as you venture further into the world of strength and conditioning these two ability traits are key to work on if you want to improve your overall athletic performance. Watch this video and learn about these to character traits you didn...'t know you needed to aid you on your own fitness quest! #hscsquad #gobyeond #strengthandconditioning #nerdoutworkout #strengthspeed #speedstrength #overwatch #avengers #reinhardt #thor #powerlifting #weightlifting #strongman #athlete #performance

If you're a powerlifter, weightlifter, strongman or over athlete with tight hips and back do this quick 12 minute flow daily to help improve your mobility and strength in those regions. Also, if you're a weekend warrior, desk jockey, on your feet all day or a person who is just getting more active try this flow before you start your day as it will help you loosen up your joints and get ready for the day! Learned this flow from studying and practicing Functional Range Conditio...ning and even went and got certified in the practice to add to our programming for our athletes and clients. This has helped a ton of our athletes move and feel better during their daily activities. Try it out! #hscsquad #strengthandconditioning #gobeyond #nerdoutworkout #mobility #hip #lowback #flow

Today I go over a solid hip and low back stretch that helps improve mobility, strength and relief within your low back and hip area. I do this every time before... I start a lower body day or weightlifting session. If you have often have a tight low back and hips, working on the external rotators of the hip in this manner will help you release tension and move better hopefully with less discomfort. I got this idea from Joe DeFranco in which I am also part of his CPPS coaching squad. A ton of great training tools and regiments I've learned since being part of this learning organization.

Today we incorporate rolls into our finisher. Definitely do this workout at the end of your session. If you do this in the beginning and are not use to rolling then you will definitely be dizzy through out the rest of your session. This workout trains your core and vestibular senses. It challenges your physically and mentally so give it a shot. It's also a great calorie burner and stamina booster as you're moving your body in different planes of motion in a short amount of t...ime while trying to keep a certain pace. 4 sets 5 X (2 Rolls + Side Crawl Back) 1 X Gorillas Up and Back #hscsquad #nerdoutworkout #rft #strengthandconditioning #gobeyond #rawfunctionaltraining #rftsj
