Caturday Clean-Grip Push Press 🐾🏋🏽♂️
I’m 51, with over 20 years in the #fitness industry—and I still love training for power (speed × strength). One of my favorite moves: the clean-grip push press.⚡️
🐈⬛But before the barbell moves, safety comes first—even if it’s just a cat toy in the way.
🎯Power training isn’t just for athletes or the young. There are variations to meet every age and ability. Train smart. Train strong. Train with purpose.
Holy shit, you want a serious workout for strengthening the calves?
After messing up my knee, the PT told me that since I danced tango in high heels, I should do single-leg heel raises (other foot on a chair) holding 5 pounds in each hand, 25 reps.
One of my tango teachers says to do heel raises, counting to 6 up and 6 down.
So, I just did…I don't know, maybe 10 reps? however many I could manage… one-leg, 5 pounds per hand, 6 count up, 6 count down.
WOW

What did I learn from this year's annual blood test results?
I shouldn’t run 40 miles the day before I get the blood drawn…
…unless I tell my doctor about the run *before* they see the results. 😆
