The best thing about California is the mixed cultures, weather, and the views!
Here we have Runyon Canyon in Hollywood. It’s roughly a 4 mile hike, with CRAZY inclines.if you don’t mind getting your hands dirty, I highly recommend this hike. Just be sure to wear hiking shoes, or shoes you don’t mind getting dirty. This is not the hike you want to take a first date to.😂

Starting your day with a workout is the BEST way to start your day. Not only do I feel good physically, I feel great mentally. You know what they say, early bird gets the worm. Morning workouts can boost concentration and alertness levels. Especially at work, they help you to focus, engage and be active.

1-Day a week I get a cheat day where I can eat anything I like. Today I went with the loaded potato brisket. It was such a big portion that I have dinner for tomorrow to. 😂
In life it’s all about balance, work hard, and play hard. Life is short so make sure you appreciate every single breath. Make sure to live your live to its full potential, because in a blink of a eye it could be over.
Live for today and plan for tomorrow. 🙌🏾

Today was a fun hike and some free mountain climb as well. The best training is putting your body in terrains it’s not used to. The human body is meant to adapt to your surroundings.
The proof in human history, and human evolution.The human body readily responds to changing environmental stresses in a variety of biological and cultural ways. We can acclimatize to a wide range of temperature and humidity. When traveling to high altitudes, our bodies adjust so that our cells still receive sufficient oxygen

Make sure you work out every part of your body.
Do you work out your back muscles?
Your back muscles are the main structural support for your torso. These muscles help you move your body, including your head, neck, shoulders, arms and legs. Your back muscles work together to allow you to bend over, twist, turn your head and extend your back.

I am one those people who can even step in the gym without music. It’s like having a coach in your ear pushing you. Listening to music while exercising doesn't just relieve boredom. It can help improve the quality of your workout by increasing your stamina and putting you in a better mood. In particular, music that is motivational or synchronized with your exercise is shown to have physical and psychological effects.

If your stomach doesn’t hurt when you laugh, did you really work out your abs? 😂
The abdominal muscles support the trunk, allow movement and hold organs in place by regulating internal abdominal pressure. The deep abdominal muscles, together with muscles in the back, make up your 'core' muscles and help keep your body stable and balanced, and protects your spine.

Staying hydrated is vital for workouts, and everyday life. Be sure to treat your body like it’s a temple. Drinking enough water each day is crucial for many reasons: to regulate body temperature, keep joints lubricated, prevent infections, deliver nutrients to cells, and keep organs functioning properly. Being well-hydrated also improves sleep quality, cognition, and mood.

I’ve notice a lot of people not properly doing bicep curls. This can be dangerous, and lead to injury. Your body can sense this and finds ways for you to “cheat” through this difficult bottom half of the movement without you even realizing it.
One way it does that is by initiating each rep with a slight swing.
I’m sure we’ve all seen guys at the gym who take this to the extreme, but even just a slight swing at the bottom can make bicep curls feel much easier and enable you to use heavier weights.

That V-shape is coming in.
With a little determination, consistency, diligence, and Hard work anything is possible. Building the iconic V-shaped body is something most lifters seek when they start lifting weights. To do this, you need a workout plan full of lat pulldowns, rows, deadlifts, shoulder raises done multiple times a week. Diet is also key, some of you will need to eat more to gain more mass and size while others will need to eat less to lose body fat.

Not sure if anyone likes leg day at the gym, I know I’m not the biggest fan. But Lunges are not particularly leg exercises, but it is related to whole lower body workup. Lunges are a powerful exercise, allowing you to shape and strengthen almost every muscle in the lower body-the hips, glutes, quads, hamstrings, and calves. It helps strengthen your lower body, increase core strength, muscle tissue and help you get the perfect buttocks you always hoped for.

Row,row, row, your boat... till your arms fall off. Rowing machines, also known as ergometers or ergs, use your upper and lower body on every stroke. This strengthens and tones your muscles and improves your endurance. Rowing can also benefit your heart and lungs. It’s a common misconception that rowing works only your arms. In reality, rowing is a full-body workout.

Incorporating Calisthenics at the gym has really put my workouts to maximize my workouts. Unlike many core exercises that just work the core, the L-sit works your abs, obliques, hip flexors, quads, triceps, shoulders, pecs, and lats. It can generally improve your mobility, helping you to perform moves like the pancake, or even just kicking higher.

Wanna know a secret?
Mirror selfie’s aren’t just for pictures. I use it to see what part of my body I need to work on, I also use it to make sure I’m using proper body mechanics during my workouts, and it is a confidents booster. What’s the point of working hard, if you can’t enjoy the results?

Don’t forget to take a break between reps, crack a smile, and BREATH.
You only do as good as you feel.
When lifting heavy weights such that you're performing 10 reps or less, proper rest and recovery is essential for the activation of muscle fibers.
Longer rest periods (3–5 minutes) between sets lead to greater muscle growth and strength gains.

It’s Ab-Day!
Thank god for the Russian who created this work out.
Russian Twists!
One of the best benefits of seated Russian twists is it whittles away the side fat. This exercise targets the obliques, which are the muscles running from the ribs to the pelvic area. These help you burn the fat called muffin top or side belly fat.
