3 Insanely Effective, FAST Upper Body Warm-ups
If you’ve picked up the latest edition of Men’s Fitness, there is a big 4 week AMD workout in it. You know from all of my posts here on Diesel and if you’ve purchased this innovative muscle building system, that I’m big on full range of motion movements, a thorough warm-up, activation exercises, SMR and everything else that helps you stay healthy and move better. It is so important as you get older and it is so important for coaches and personal trainers who are responsible for helping athletes and fitness enthusiasts. READ THIS NOW With this in mind, I created a killer new video. Each warm-up might look like a whole lot of exercises; more than you’re used to.
