Vigor Coach's Corner: Part 9

This is an angry edition.We’re flipping tires.Snatching kettlebells.And fighting resistance.But seriously, we’re digging into really effective, challenging exercises that are getting used more and more in general fitness programs because they “can” be great if used the right way.Unfortunately many times these exercises get used as the “cool” exercise without enough coaching, regressions and then progressions to teach it safely and effectively – which results in injuries, pain, the client feeling unsuccessful and because of that – no results!Find out what we do at Vigor Ground Renton Gym to make sure clients get the best results.

**NOTE: I grew up to Star Trek so there was no way I’m not going to pay homage to the passing of Leonard Nimoy
