Perform Awkward Lifting Patterns Often
Awkward lifting is an invaluable key to developing massive core strength. If properly conditioned a personal training client at Synergy Fitness will benefit tremendously from performing supervised awkward lifting patterns.
Two really easy and inexpensive tools for awkward lifting are an old tire and a sledge hammer. Every time your personal training client picks up the sledge hammer or flips the tire, they are receiving severe CNS fatigue. This severe CNS fatigue followed by the shear endurance of the event will inevitably lead to the release of human growth hormone, otherwise known as HGH.
This helps the body rip through fat and can cause huge surges in muscular development. Synergy Fitness believes that all personal training sessions focused on core development should have some component of supervised awkward lifting during each 30 minute cycle. By varying the time that you introduce the Lift, you will vary the effect it has on the core.

Brian—I think you are very innovative in your approach to personal training–this is a good example. I’m a former personal trainer and fitness facility owner so I appreciate your creativity. The only thing that I would change in any of these clips is the music. I find it very annoying. I would much prefer to hear you talking and giving instruction, modifications, muscle groups worked, etc. than to be subjected to that music. You have to keep in mind that not everyone who frequents your website is 20-something and likes those tunes. This is just a suggestion—it’s not a big deal. I will continue to incorporate your training techniques into my own personal program regardless of the music. I plan to continue visiting your website. You make a great contribution to personal training–makes one think outside the box. Thanks for your obvious dedication to your profession.
hey brian, love your work, you are def. pushing the industry to new levels, but i am not feeling the webiste. I know the content is solid, im not worried about that but it has a feel of an info-mercial, a lot of stuff going on as soon as you reach the site, too much clutter for me, colors seem kinda dull, i would try to stream line the site more, just my humble opnion, but i would still visit it no matter what you did, because i am here for knowledge not the scenery, hope i helped,
peace

Videos are great. Makes me want to have a go. Really enjoying trying the innovative stuff I find on your site, whether its in my own training or with my clients. As a trainer I would like to hear or read more of the physiological benefits of the training shown or more teaching points and tips for regressions or progressions of the exercise. If I come across clips with music I always turn the music off as I find it more distracting.
Hi Brian. As always, your videos and content are outstanding. Very innovative and out of the box. Keep up the good work. I also agree that the site seems to have the feel of an ‘infomercial’. As far as the music goes on the videos, I just turn down the volume when I realize that there are no instructions. Other than that, good stuff!
Hi Brian, I am a hugh fan, as a Personal Trainer, you have helped my think out side the box, I thought I was doing wonders for my core with just planks that was the extent of my knowledge, but you have given so so much more and changed my views in terms of training. Keep up the excellent work
