As soon as you're switching training phases, your nutrition should switch to go along with this. If you keep stimulating the same nutritional pathways your body will desensitize to them. Making a de-load from a certain training phase way less effective. #mi40ambassador #mi40
As soon as your progress stagnates you should switch phases. By doing so you'll be able to keep getting good results without really plateauing. Now you're getting maximum results in one training phase, while you're resensitizing to the other. #mi40ambassador #mi40nation #fitness
By making sure that you're actually rotating your stimulus from phase to phase, you're able to avoid plateauing. Meaning that more of your time is spend actually getting results. #mi40ambassador #mi40nation #gym #results #programming
One of the biggest mistake people make with their programming is that they'll mix up different types of stimuli within their workouts, instead of choosing one specific stimulus, and making it as pure as possible. #mi40ambassador #mi40nation
The healthier your immune system, the easier it is to build muscle. So, optimizing things like gut health, micro nutrient status, and inflammation are huge for hypertrophy. #mi40ambassador #mi40nation #guthealth #microbiome #immune #hypertrophy #fitness #nutrition #supplements
Epinephrine increases blood pressure, respiration rate, heart rate, increases blood glucose, and dilates the pupils, all for the purpose of enabling you to quickly and safely get out of a potentially life-threatening situation. #mi40ambassador #stressresponse
Getting comfortable and strong at the extreme ranges is key to optimal muscle development. So, spend some time at the fully lengthened and fully shortened position of a muscle. #mi40ambassador #mi40nation #hypertrophy #fitnesstips #gym #muscle
Loaded stretching and accentuating the eccentric are the training modalities that activate mTOR the most. The more mTOR is activated the greater protein synthesis will be. #mi40ambassador #mi40nation #hypertrophy #fitness #training #gym #fitnesstips #mi40
In reality most foods arn't bad or good by themselves. If a certain food has positive or negative effects on your health is all dependent on the timing, the specific conditions you're under, and the person who consumes it. #mi40ambassador #mi40nation #Nutrition #supplements

After over a century of use and research, creatine as a sports supplement is one of if not the most scientifically validated, safe, and effective ingredient in the sports nutrition industry. #mi40ambassador #mi40nation #fitnesstips #Supplements #FITNESSTIP #health #nutrition
About 90% of all the tings that are done in our body are done by bacteria. Which leaves only 10% for our own cells/DNA. #mi40ambassador #mi40nation #microbiome #guthealth #health #bacteria #fit #gym
One of the best ways to make it easier to loose fat and/or put on muscle is to control your state of mind. Mindset can be a key trigger to whether your brain is sending massages to be catabolic or anabolic. #mi40ambassador #mi40nation #fatloss #muscle #Mindset #fitness #health
RDL's for hamstrings: Start the movement by breaking at the hips. Drive your hips back until you run out of hip ROM. Now contract them hard! Create intent by shoving your feet backwards and contract your way to the starting position. #mi40ambassador #fitnesstips #gymlife #fitness
RDL's for glutes: Start the movement by breaking at the hips. Drive your hips back until you run out of hip ROM. Push your feet out, and back at the same time. Imagine something being in your butcrack that you got to crush. Contract your way to the starting point #mi40ambassador
Research shows that holding a high power pose leads to a 19% increase in testosterone and a 25% decrease in cortisol. Low power poses showed the opposite pattern - a 10% decrease in testosterone and a 17% increase in cortisol. This all happens in just 2 minutes #mi40ambassador
Training is all about creating an internal response that will lead to an adaptation by the body. You really need to be aware of what type of internal environment you need to create in order for the body to adapt the way you want it to. #mi40ambassador #Fitness #FitnessTips
Your last rep should look exactly the same as your first rep. The only thing that is OK to change is that your ROM might get a bit shorter as you fatigue, and your facial expressions of course... There's no point in abandoning proper execution. #mi40ambassador #fitness #health
There is no such thing as discipline. There is only love. Love is the most powerful creative force in the universe. You are the result of what you love most. You either love muscular abs more than donuts or you love donuts more than wash board abs. -Charles Poliquin
When we look at training adaptations from the nervous system there are adaptations at several levels: 1. Primary motor cortex 2. Spinal cord 3. Neuromuscular junctions All of this adaptation can lead to an increase in strength. #mi40ambassador #strength #mi40nation
