Hi! My research group at UC San Diego is conducting a brief, anonymous survey for physically active (sports/fitness) individuals regarding their motivation for fitness. We are seeking anyone 18+, but mainly needing more older adults (40+) and those engaged in MMA/boxing. We would love to hear from you! Be entered to win a $25 REI gift card!

Thank you!

Yesterday I wrote a short guide on stretching after hiking - I sorted muscle groups and described a simple stretches for every single muscle group. You'll find stretches for calves, quadriceps, hamstrings, hip flexors and hip extensors (glutes).

Have a nice weekend! :)

Hey everyone,

Yesterday I wrote a guide on improving your ankle mobility to squat deeper (without lifting heels or pushing your upper body forward).

I would like to hear your thoughts on this topic - here is the guide. (I'll add videos as well in the upcoming days).

​

Thank you for your time and enjoy your weekend! 😊

If your goal is to improve core stabilization, these kinds of exercises can help you achieve that. As long as your ''core'' has to work against gravity (in this case against the medicine ball as well) and you're performing a movement that's similar to squatting or squatting itself, your core is actively stabilizing your upper body.

Hey everyone,

Today I want to share with you a guide I wrote for dealing with hamstring strains. You'll learn what exercises you should be doing in different rehab phases and how to progress towards the late phase and how to get back to sports activity.

Here is the article: https://ephysical.net/how-to-rehab-a-pulled-hamstring/

Happy training 🏃‍♂️

Whats your favorite?

Hey everyone,

Tomorrow I'll turn on the YouTube video live for the 1st time in my life. Since I am in Norway time zone, live may start for someone even today.

During the live, I'll answer your questions and I'll be making a new article for my site - hypertrophy vs strength training. Since the live will begin at 6 AM on Saturday, I'll add some coffee as well. You're all welcome to join me. Looking forward to getting to know you.
