Most people think an intra workout is just carbs or just EAAs.....or whatever happens to be in the cupboard.

Chris breaks down exactly what’s in his,
why carbs and amino acids work together,
how much he uses, and whether it actually makes a noticeable difference.

He also outlines a simple, budget friendly option if you don’t want anything fancy.

If you’re training without one, this will help you decide if you even need it.

We asked our members to rank their favourite body parts to train.

It got honest. It got chaotic.

And legs didn’t come out well 🫠

Favourite to least favourite. Let us know yours!

Omega-3s aren’t all the same. 🐟

EPA and DHA do different jobs, and dose & balance matter more than most people realise.

EPA vs DHA.
Cholesterol ratios.
Inflammation.

Watch it. Save it. Rewatch it.

Understanding is better than guessing.

Not all weight feels the same 👀

On the Nytram decline chest press, the two loading arms change where the resistance is hardest.

Ever wondered which one to use?

🔹 When the weight is more vertical to gravity, that’s where you’ll feel maximum load

🔹 As the arm moves away from vertical, the resistance drops

🔹 That means this machine is mid/top-biased, and not evenly loaded through the whole rep

Use the arms intentionally, not blindly.

What do we use?

👉🏻 The top one 99% of the time.

Train smart. Not just heavy 💪🏽

NEW KIT ALERT! 💥

Thanks to for sorting us out with these stunning Gymleco cable stations 🤩

The old single cable station has been replaced in the shoulder and arm room, and an extra one has been added!

I think you'll all agree they look 👌🏾

They run super smooth and are height adjustable making them perfect for arms, side and rear delts.

Please keep the surrounding floor areas tidy while we arrange for hanging spaces for attachments....you know we love to keep a clean and tidy gym here! 💪🏾

This position on the vertical leg press gives your calves a deeper stretch than most machines and feels great.

Why?

✔️ Hips folded = longer muscle length
✔️ Heels drop lower = bigger stretch
✔️ Straight legs = more gastroc activation
✔️ Constant tension = better growth 💥

Control it. Don’t bounce. Squeeze every rep.

Make sure you're training calves with a straight leg position (like these, donkey calf, standing or other leg press), AND in a seated position.

NEW KIT 🔥 Seated Precor Icarian Row

Thanks to for this Precor Seated Row, which he begrudgingly let us have 😬😚

Check out MuscleFactory staff member Pete taking it for a ride.

Using it for your goals:

➡️ Handle positions

• Neutral = more lats + comfort
• Wider overhand = upper back & rear delts
• Narrower overhand = mid-back thickness

Elbows in = more lats
Elbows out = more upper back

➡️ Adjustable chest & seat pads

• Lock your body in
• Reduce momentum
• Keep tension where it belongs

💡TIP! Whatever grip you use, for best muscle connection, pull with the elbows, not the hands.

➡️Target muscles:

•Lats
•Rhomboids
•Mid & upper traps
•Rear delts

Whether you’re chasing width, thickness, or both… this one delivers 💯
