Hi folks,

The wait is over and I've just started a new PT life at my new gym base in Nelson.

Migym-located in the heart of Nelson- gave me an opportunity to provide my services for their customers and I really look forward to this new challenge. If you either want to lose weight, tone up a wee bit, get your back sorted and/or had a sports injury or surgical treatment on joints, your very welcome to book an initial appointment and we will discuss you matter in a private atmosphere. I really look forward to hearing from you.

Armin @ www.eqco.co.nz

After 5 years living in Auckland with all its housing, traffic and pricing issues, my wife and I made the decision to move on for much more life quality. Means will shift to the Nelson area early or mid May. As for my Personal Trainer life I got a fantastic opportunity to start at www.migym.co.nz in Nelson as soon as we moved. Sometimes you need to make unpopular decisions in your life and leave a lot of nice people behind but I will do my very best and look out for new PT homes for my clients. Already 3 of them agreed to video sessions which is really fantastic and a big honor for me. They simply won't like to have another trainer... In the last couple of days I got asked what I will do with my supplement shop. The answer is simple: I will keep it and everyone is very welcome to order online at www.eqsu.co.nz. I will keep you posted about anything. Thanks and look forward to hearing from you.

Cheers, Armin

This business is now Kiwi owned and operated since holding NZ citizenship.

Look forward to serving you !

Here some notes about lower back training after reading

.

I agree, the lower back is an area often forgotten. Out of sight - out of reach... Nah seriously I do believe, that many fitness professionals struggle to train the lower back as they haven´t got the basics straight! Like the lady in the video...And these basics have fantastic names: Anatomy & Biomechanics! Here the facts: 1. Our back muscles are 3 different layers and the one we wanna train in order to improve core, is the 3rd/deepest layer which is directly connected in all sorts of directions to our vertebraes. 2. Straight legged and straight back deadlifts train Hamstrings, glutes and do train the lower back layer which has no influence on any of this tiny core muscles mentioned under 1. 3. Keeping legs and back straight when doing a deadlift you only workout your hip joint !! 4. There is only one way to engage the 3rd musles: Bent/curve your back, keep the knees slightly bent all time and workout fast. This muscles structure is from fast twitching nature, similar to our leg muscles! So why would you train them slowly? All our activities of daily living are from dynamic nature... 5. How can you train joints keeping them straight, locked and stiff? I never heard about that. As soon as you use/move a joint, you will use its connecting muscles. Same for the back: Curve it and you use it.

Here´s a really good image from the deep spinal muscles to clarify what I mean: http://breakingmuscle.com/…/low-back-pain-a-guide-for-coach…

The second exercise the lady provides in the video and wants to sell as a standard deadlift, is a simple squat. Different target muscles, different techniques etc....

Once again: get your basics straight before selling something!

The guys from Stuff should have asked real experts first before publishing this poor stuff!

This is rather terrible. As a matter of fact, so many governments are remote-controlled by car, oil & gas industry and the food giants eg fast food chains, Fonterra, Nestle, Mars, Unilever etc. And so is ours... As a result, they cannot see the forest because of all the trees anymore. Meaning: They do not "treat" the obvious/source. They only treat the symptoms just that much, that it won´t harm the big monopolists. We should all stop buying from them and then they will learn quickly. Even if the Kapiti ice cream`s so good... unfortunately a Fonterra brand.

Armin

Great tips. But: All this beautiful things like dietary change, personal training, supplements etc do not really work unless you change your mind and notice the importance to do something for your own body. There is always more care going in to cars, boats, houses and all sorts of things. We do oil changes, inspections & renovations on them and probably don´t notice: Our very own system does need this maintenance too! Our personal motor won´t break down if you gave him the same attention: Cleansing, eating & sleeping well, working out on a regular base. And as the dot on the i, supplement with very good nutrients.
