Alpha Functional Force – Part 2


When strength meets purpose — results follow.

This session doesn’t stop at sweat; it’s built to push limits and condition both body and mind.

From sled rope pulls and sledgehammer tyre slams to 100kg deadlifts, every rep builds functional power for life and sport.

Progress isn’t built in comfort — it’s built right here 💪

Here’s JB 4 weeks ago performing a chest-supported row on the Primal machine 💪

This piece of kit is designed to completely eliminate momentum, forcing the back muscles — lats, rhomboids, and rear delts — to do all the work. Keeping the chest locked against the pad as much as possible, allows for a deep stretch and powerful contraction through the full range. But remember folks as fancy as this piece of kit is there's nothing you can't do with just a set of dumbbells 👌

Progression here isn’t just about stacking on more plates.

It’s about improving control, range, and intent — mastering tempo, squeezing harder at the top, keeping tension where it belongs, and moving better every week.

Quality reps > heavy reps every time 🔥

Everyone wants instant results these days.
But the truth is, fitness doesn’t work like Amazon Prime — you can’t just order abs and get them delivered tomorrow.

If you’re not ready to enjoy the process, show up on the days you can’t be bothered, and choose your long-term goals over nights out or constant junk food… then this lifestyle isn’t for you.

Results don’t come from quick fixes — they come from consistency, patience, and sacrifice. The question is: what do you really want more?

Seated Dumbbell Lateral Raise PT Top Tip 💪
One of the best isolation moves to build wider, rounder shoulders by targeting the lateral delts. Being seated helps reduce momentum, so you can really focus on form and control.

🚫 Common mistakes:
– Shrugging the shoulders (turns it into a trap exercise)
– Leading with the hands instead of elbows
– Swinging or using momentum
– Raising too high and losing tension on the delts

Keep it smooth, stop at shoulder height, and keep tension where it belongs — on the side delts 🔥

Stop expecting growth in a deficit.

Here’s the science
➡️ Muscle growth requires energy availability. When you’re in a calorie deficit, your body prioritizes survival — repairing and maintaining, not building.
➡️ To actually build new muscle tissue, you need a caloric surplus so the body has enough energy to fuel protein synthesis and recovery.
➡️ Yes, you may gain a little fat, but that’s the trade-off for growth. The surplus doesn’t have to be huge — even +200–300 kcal above maintenance, with sufficient protein, is enough to trigger hypertrophy while keeping fat gain minimal.

The basics never change:
✔️ Progressive overload in training
✔️ Adequate protein intake (1.6–2.2g per kg of bodyweight)
✔️ Proper sleep & recovery
✔️ A slight surplus of calories

🍽️ Start eating. Start growing. Build the muscle first — you can always cut later. 💪

Landmine RDL PT top tips 🔥
One of the best movements for building your hamstrings, glutes & lower back. The landmine setup keeps the bar path controlled so you can really focus on that hip hinge.

🚫 Common mistakes:
– Letting the bar drift too far away
– Rounding the lower back
– Squatting instead of hinging at the hips

Keep it slow, feel the stretch, and drive through your glutes on the way up 💪

Session Spotlight: Jess


Great session yesterday with Jess—focused on form, function, and ironing out those weak areas to build a more balanced and functional physique 💪

We made sure to stay dialled in on lower back engagement and core stability, two essentials that often get overlooked but play a huge role in overall strength and injury prevention.

Jess also smashed my B***y Builder foot placement glute-killer routine—one of her favourites and for good reason. Bog pumps & fu***ng hard 🍑🔥

My sessions are tailored not just to push clients, but to educate and reinforce proper movement patterns so their progress is sustainable and effective.

Amazing effort, Jess—keep showing up and putting in the work. 👏

Boost Your Chest Press, Save Your Shoulders!

When performing a chest press, a simple adjustment can make a massive difference—slightly turning the dumbbells inward (a neutral or semi-neutral grip) as you press up. This subtle tweak can change the game for your shoulder health and chest gains!

🔹 Reduces Shoulder Strain: Rotating the dumbbells reduces the degree of external rotation on the shoulder joint, minimizing stress on the rotator cuff and AC joint. Perfect if you’re recovering from shoulder injuries!

🔹 Better Chest Activation: This angle helps target the pectoral muscles more directly, keeping the tension on the chest rather than transferring it to the front delts.

🔹 Improved Range of Motion: The adjustment allows for a deeper stretch at the bottom and a stronger contraction at the top, promoting greater muscle growth.

🔹 Joint-Friendly Movement: A semi-neutral grip is more natural for the shoulder joint, reducing wear and tear over time, especially during heavy pressing.

Pro Tip: If you’ve experienced shoulder discomfort during traditional presses, try this adjustment and feel the difference!

Big shoutout to my client Adam for smashing this variation with perfect form!
