Best Warm Up Ever
Warmups are so important for your session, and this one is a beauty. It gets you going, gets you mobile, explosive and feeling ready for anything. As I mentioned the whole thing is great, there are lots of things you can add and take away to suit you best, however this kind of warm up is good for keeping you mobile. It can even work as a seperate session. remember to do everything twice, and to jog back in between.

Hamstring Rehabilitation Manual
My father has recently written an e-book on hamstring rehabilitation. Although this won’t interest a lot of my readers I wanted to get it out there, both for you and for him. There isn’t really a better place to launch it, and if there are some athletes or sports coaches out there, or people with recurring hamstring injuries, then this should be of interest for you.

Pelvic Tilts: Part 2
We talked about pelvic tilts and the different ways your hip can sit in part 1. It has been a very long time coming but here is Part 2 and it is going to show you how you can go about fixing those tilts and get back into realignment. However, keep in mind that just because generally when your hamstrings are loose and your hip flexors tight, you will have an anterior tilt, each person is different. The primary reason for the tilt may be coming from the hip flexors. I will tell you what to remedy for each condition, but just keep in mind everyone is an individual. In saying that, if you do have a severe tilt either way, then it is likely all the exercises will help get rid of it. Most people stand in an anterior tilt, but sit in a posterior tilt. More about that later too!

How to Workout at your local park
This is a guest post by Christian (yes the first guest post on LaurensFitness), aka Young Athlete, you’ll see him often commenting around LaurensFitness and Stronglifts. Christian competes in hockey, football and track. He trains three times per week for strength, and twice a week for speed and conditioning. He asked to write this guest post to share his experiences and give you guys a simple workout you can do at your local park, and follow on from my last article, on how to workout without a gym. I like it and I am sure you will love it. Enjoy!

No Equipment? No Excuses: 20 Exercises You Can Do At Home
- No gym,
- No weights,
- No equipment.
Can a decent workout be done? Yes
Is it ideal? No
There is always a time when you can’t get to the gym, or don’t have the hour or two to get there do the workout and get home. If you haven’t set your own home gym up, there is still a lot you can do. You won’t get you the gains that you will get from going to the gym, lifting weights and completing your full program, but they certainly aren’t easy, and will at least help you maintain your work, and take no time at all…which means no excuses.
