Thinking about current fitness trends today....and had this memory...
I was once told to "get cute" so I could sell more memberships and training. My hair was like it is today. NATURAL. And I loved it that day...and I love it today.
Did I end up "getting cute"? Nope. I quit...about a week later. For other reasons involved as well...but that comment in itself gave me the strength I needed.
Find yourself true representatives in fitness to follow. Avoid following these ideas and "influencers" they "think" we want to be. If "get cute" is what works...that's not anything I want to be a part of.

I know many who should read this.

Pretty freakin' stoked about these platforms going in!!!!
*Chest & Tris*
This was one of my favorite pieces to my workout.
Use a slam ball if you have one. If you're not familiar, the slam balls are filled with sand so they aren't super steady which makes this exercise feel awesome. You can feel all of your stabilizing muscles firing for this one.
Do 5-10 single arm presses, then 5-10 explosive chest PASSES, then finish with 5-10 single arm presses on the other side.
This wouldn't be a good exercise to "ego lift". Drop the weight. You want to be able to EXPLODE up when doing the chest passes to get some plyometric work in there.
I had this included in a circuit. For me...working out at home without a barbell and dumbbells is proving to be difficult to stay focused, so I'm incorporating all circuits or interval work.
Have fun!
