Little Lana, an amazing strong young girl with tons and tons of potential. Lana joined Ken and I at the series of workshops we did in the spring of this year, Squat, Bench and Deadlift.
Lana comments on one of my training posts that she wanted to come train with me, I invited, she accepted, the rest is history.
BENCH
Refreshing her with the workshop technique tips we started, she needed to get her traps and lats harder into the bench and use her leg drive. After a few tries, she put it all together and got a 15 lb bench P.R.
Every new person wants to fight the handler on the out part, you have to let your handler bring the bar out to the right starting position.
Aneta & Jack made the road trip from Ottawa again this weekend. It's always fun when they come and hang out and train with us. They are young, eager & personal trainers themselves so we all have lots to learn from each other. Helping Aneta with her bench today, her and Jack are both using the Cory Swede Burns new 5th set program for their next meet coming up in October. Checkout his new ebook on the link below

Adjusting Aneta's foot position gave her more leg drive and it helped a lot, her bench looked way better today ! Even Swede commented on her leg drive ! You know you have a good session when that happens !
SQUATS
Lana is a really low squatter, she is used to walking it out. Lana would actually be really great at Olympic Lifting as well, she is very athletic and could do anything she sets her mind too.
First time using a monolift, 6 lb P.R.
The cues that helped Lana get that 141 Lb squat up was keeping her elbows down !
Next up Kettlebells, Lana has done them before but not with me so I tweaked her technique a bit and showed her a few new moves.
Aneta is new to kettlebells and was willing to learn everything!
Aneta and Lana swinging Heavy Kettlebells, their technique was amazing ! great job ladies !
Kettlebell Highpulls, Rows, Swing Squats and more
Today was an amazing day, training, teaching, living, learning and passing on.
"I want to inspire", I want someone to look at me and say "because of you I didn't give up"
