Fun Fit Fact! ⏰
As we age, we lose power (strength plus speed) at twice the rate of strength alone.

▶️ Watch my amazing rockSTARs (ages 65 to 94) at the Milano Senior Center in Melrose MA demonstrate a few power moves.

Why Power Training Matters:
▪️ Improved Reaction Time — helps prevent falls
🧠 #Brain Boost — may support cognitive #health
👊🏽 Fights #Sarcopenia — combats age related muscle loss

😅 And yes… it is #fun too!

#ThrowbackThursday 🚀Power Training

🎯 Power = speed × strength

▶️Video of me at 43 and the 100lb single-arm dumbbell snatch 💥

⏰With 20+ years of coaching, I’ve built progressions and variations for all ages and abilities.

💪🏾Because power isn’t just for athletes—it’s for everyone who wants to move well, live strong, and it’s a cornerstone of healthy aging.

📣 Train your core. Protect your back.

💪🏾Watch my online rockstar fitness client (50+) demonstrate what I call The Perfect Crunch.

✅This move targets stabilizers, builds strength from the inside out, and adapts to all fitness levels. Whether using a medicine ball or foam roller, it’s smart, safe, and effective.

#Exercise of the Day: Mini Band Skaters👟 (Foot-Level Variation)

✅ Glute Medius Activation
✅ Eccentric Control
✅ Lateral Stability

💥Perfect for beginners building foundational strength or seasoned movers looking for a fresh challenge.

Black August starts soon. Usually I have others to participate with me, but since I don’t, I’m calling on those of you out there to get together in your cohorts, do 100 of something everyday with me for the month of August, and tell me how its going for you. Burpees, push-ups, sit-ups, a mile run/walk, 100 of some exercise for 31 days with me, that’d be rad! The key is unity, solidarity, so try to do them at least with one other person. You can split things up and make 100 squats into 50, plus its more fun together, and that’s what its about, what we can do together!

Love, rage, and solidarity
