#423 - Life Hacks 207 - The Gym Edition

Jonny & Yusef from Propane Fitness join me for another Life Hacks episode.

It's the new year and everyone is back in the gym so I figured that we'd go through some of our favourite exercise variations and training hacks to add a bit of spice into whatever your new program is.

Expect to learn how to make bench press even more focussed on your chest, the ultimate skull crusher variation, Jonny's favourite Rep Scheme for muscle growth, how to get motivated if you're not feeling like training, what research shows as the most effective exercises for glute growth, how to make an even better pull-down machine and much more...

Extra Stuff:

Bring your feet up for Bench Press to increase chest focus.

Barbell chest-supported rows.

Floor lying skull crushers.

MYO Reps.

Single arm rear foot elevated split squats.

Step-ups for Glute development.

Commit to some exercises for quality, rather than for load.
