Your shoulder is an incredibely versatile and complicated joint.

A lot of people have a hard time controlling their body as they lunge.

It’s tempting to think that you have a problem with your knees, hips or even your lower back.

You don’t.

You have a problem with your foot. You have an anchoring problem. Your foot is not making ideal contact with the ground, so it is sending the wrong signals to both your hips and knees.

Here is how to fix your lunge.

Do you wake up with tight hips or a stiff lower back? It’s because you have tight, damaged or untrained hips. Here is a simple routine you can use to fix your hips and feel better.

The inner chest is very hard to target.  Everyone wants that line that divides your pecs.  It not only makes you look good, it helps you perform better in the gym.

A more robust set of pecs will allow you to press more, and also fill out your sweater in winter.  

Most people perform a ton of dumbbell or cable flies to hit this area, and then complain when they get cranky shoulders.

There's a better way to target this area, while not aggravating your shoulders.

A lot of people are overly ambitious in their goals.  I don't say that to imply that their goals are unattainable, they just have an unrealistic road map in their head.  

This is especially true when it comes to nutrition.  I normally ask someone "What's your biggest dietary obstacle? What do you want to change?"

They normal answer is something like "I want to change every thing! Starting tomorrow I want to only eat kale, boiled chicken and never touch salt or sugar again!" 

That's great, but it completely disregards human psychology and their own innate desire to revert back to what's comfortable.

I have to slow people down, and tell them that I don't want them to change everything overnight. I want them to slowly change their bad habits so that the process is do-able and sustainable.

The truth of the matter is that small changes over time lead to gigantic results.  Gigantic changes over a short period of time lead to frustration and failure.
