Just because you’ve been hit with an injury doesn’t mean you can’t lift heavy ever again. It’s all about commitment, and your rehabbing. Stephanie Michelle has had multiple back surgeries. But when she’s healthy, she has been regularly training with me 2x per week for a few years now. In the video she is leg pressing 410 pounds. Women can be strong and not look manly. And you can lift heavy again after being out with a back surgery. You just have to know what you’re doing. If you or a loved one is suffering from back pain, we can help.

Dumbbell rows are essential for a developed and strong back. But typically you see them being performed with a knee on a bench. Instead of doing them like that, try them in a three point stance. We have gotten away from the knee on the bench because there’s a higher risk of getting a hernia that way . You can get the same range of motion and avoid all risk by switching to the three point stance. Make sure when you do these, pull that elbow back behind the back, don’t just bring it up to your ribs.

My favorite carb source for best pre and post workout to maximize muscle growth. Fast digestion and tastes delicious.

Efx Karbolyn is a sports nutrition supplement designed to provide a fast-absorbing carbohydrate source for athletes and gym-goers. It absorbs as quickly as a simple sugar but delivers sustained energy like a complex carb.

HOW IT WORKS:
- Absorb quickly into the bloodstream without causing stomach bloating or cramping (common with some carb drinks).
- Replenish glycogen stores in muscles during or after workouts.
- Provide steady energy without the “crash” that comes from sugar-based drinks.

🏋️‍♂️ Common Uses

Athletes and bodybuilders use Karbolyn:
• Before workouts → for quick, sustained energy.
• During workouts → to maintain endurance.
• After workouts → to help with muscle recovery and glycogen replenishment.

⚡ Typical Benefits
• Faster muscle recovery
• Better endurance and stamina
• Reduced fatigue
• Improved muscle fullness

🍓 Flavors & Forms

It’s usually sold as a powder (fruit punch, blue razz, etc.) that mixes easily with water. We also carry a one that is stacked with electrolytes.

It is reported that there’s a 23% increase in glucose uptake after 4 months of resistance training. Because poor glucose metabolism is associated with type 2 diabetes, improved glucose metabolism is an important benefit of regular strength exercise. There’s more to resistance training than just focusing on weight loss.
