Pierre's Elite Performance jumped on the challenge train!! Tag us! Show us that you are trying, or have succeeded!!!! It’s tougher than it looks!!!
I CRUSHED 2018!! . With 2018 now in the past, I took time to reflect and look forward to 2019, set goals and a plan to CRUSH them as well! . With that, big changes came at the end of 2018. My time in Guelph Ontario came to a close, which meant leaving an AMAZING gym facility! . @big_g_team_evyfit and his team has build an amazing facility at @everythingfitnessguelph and these guys took me under their wing to be successful as a trainer who jumped head first into the deep end! I wouldn’t of been successful without their help! . An AMAZING client base created in Guelph the 2.5 years I was there, highlighted by @jennyfrom_the_block_82 and D, who always smiled during even the toughest workouts. I’ve trained these two since Day 1 at Guelph, and we plan on continuing our training as I settle myself in Regina, Saskatchewan. . Last, but not least! I created, started and built my own class, twice! (An evening class over the summer and a morning group in the fall) which created an absolutely amazing atmosphere, and a great group who’m I still keep in contact with and help with their fitness! . 2018 was amazing, but the focus is now 2019 where big things are about to come! . So, with that, thank you to all of my clients, my friends, and followers for all of the support! Stay tunes for a big announcement early in the New Year!! . . . . #strengthtraining #strengthandconditioning #fitness #fitnessmotivation #2019 @ Everything Fitness & ELITE Fighting Academy

I enjoy trying new things in the gym! Whether it be mixing exercises, or just downright finding ways to challenge myself! . Here was a great duo of exercises! . A double KB snatch leading into a reverse lunge and a step up! I completed 3 reps per leg, which ends up being 6 KB swings! . Start light as these are challenging! . . The second exercise in my SuperSet was a lateral lunge paired with a cross-over step up! I completed 5 reps per side! . These two exercises attack every aspect of the hips and legs as you are moving in almost every plane! I loved this SuperSet! . I finished off the set with 10 RDL’s and 5 Single Leg RDL’s per side (not filmed) . AND OF COURSE I was wearing Pierre's Elite Performance speed bands as I completed these!

STRUGGLE AND EMERGE! . @jennyfrom_the_block_82 has been dedicated to her fitness for the past two years and has ALWAYS given 100%! . Sometimes there are some setbacks, and sometimes you don’t get where you want and your path is NEVER how you plan it to be! . What Jen has done though, is she never looks back at the past and always enters her workout with a clear mind ready to improve and give her all! . Which leads to this post! She stayed committed at today she HIT AN ALLTIME PB of 1 rep at 135#! . As you can see, the rep was not as smooth as she would have planned, and she struggled through the entire rep, but she didn’t give up on it and succeeded with achieving a new PB! .

Recovery is key 🔑
After a tough workout, I have @daltonwinstone throw his feet up on the wall for 5-7 minutes.
I also have him focusing on his breathing.
He is taking in a large deep breath, bypassing his chest cavity and trying to fill his entire stomach cavity with air. To the point that he cannot take in any more air.
Holding his breath for 5 seconds and then slowly breathing it out.
Having your legs elevated like this for 7 minutes is equivalent to a 40 minute nap!!! 😴 💤
The deep breathing helps your body reset your parasympathetic system and kickstart your recovery process! Allowing your body to bring down your heart rate, increase the amount of oxygen and get away from the “fight or flight” responses that your body is in after exercise!

Here’s a great chest press variation using a KettleBell!
@jennyfrom_the_block_82 Is crushing this chest press variation!
Challenge your stabilization! Not only is a Bridge press a challenge on the core, adding the stabilization of the kettlebell makes the exercise even more of a challenge!
Start light and work your way up!
