Day 8: The #1 Fitness Mistake You Don’t Realize You’re Making (Fix It Today!)
Are you feeling sluggish, foggy, or stuck in your fitness journey? You might be missing the simplest key to progress: hydration.
In this episode, we dive into the foundation phase of fitness-the phase before real momentum kicks in. It’s where most people quit, but those who succeed? They master the basics first. And water is one of the most overlooked game-changers.
💡 Here’s what you’ll learn:
✅ How just 1-2% dehydration drains energy, strength, and focus (British Journal of Nutrition, 2013)
✅ Why dehydration kills endurance and recovery (Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, 2018)
✅ The surprising truth about bloating and water retention (American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 2015)
✅ A simple hydration strategy that boosts performance and accelerates results
Ryan, like many beginners, was grinding in the gym but feeling stuck. One small shift-prioritizing water-changed everything. Now, he’s not just moving forward, he’s setting himself up for long-term success.
🚀 Ready to level up? Start with water. Build your foundation. And get ready for what’s next.

      Good point about viewing it as a tool for growth. This video is targeted toward the general public that most often overload their shoulders in a biceps curl. Thanks for the comment.

  • @Yedossfud
    @Yedossfud 19 วันที่ผ่านมา

    partials are good but using full range of motion to fully stretch the bicep isnt cheating, using too heavy weights that causes you to swing and use your back is cheating. combine these partials at the end of some full range of motion curls and you're on to a winner

    • @Rosspkc
      @Rosspkc 19 วันที่ผ่านมา

      this isnt a partial? hes just saying to slow down on the decline, this is a full rep....

    • @XFitCoaching
      @XFitCoaching 17 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Great points! Exercises like the preacher curl are specifically designed to isolate certain parts of the biceps, helping to build different areas without heavily involving the shoulder muscles. Since shoulders are one of the most commonly injured muscles for many people, could it be that traditional bicep curls are contributing to these shoulder injuries?

    • @XFitCoaching
      @XFitCoaching 17 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Be sure to read the description in my videos. Specifically, I added details about how to think through the role of the elbow during a biceps curl to achieve a full range of motion. This process is often highly individualized, as factors like bone length and overall body structure can significantly influence your technique and movement pattern.

    • @XFitCoaching
      @XFitCoaching 24 วันที่ผ่านมา

      3 Tips to Grow Arm Muscles 1. Focus on Compound Movements for Maximum Stress** Choose exercises that allow you to lift heavier weights, like chin-ups, pull-ups, dips, and close-grip bench presses. These movements not only engage your arms but also target other muscle groups, allowing for more overall muscle growth and strength. 2. Train Across High and Low Rep Ranges Incorporate both heavy, low-rep sets (e.g., 4-8 reps) and lighter, high-rep sets (e.g., 10-15 reps). This variety targets Type 2 muscle fibers (responsible for explosive strength) while also improving endurance and muscle definition. 3. Warm Up Daily to Boost Recovery Light warm-up exercises such as band curls, tricep extensions, or dynamic stretches can be done daily to improve blood flow and prepare your arms for tougher workouts. These also help with recovery and mobility. 💪 My Routine: I train arms alongside my back, chest, and on a dedicated arms day for balanced growth and optimal muscle engagement. This routine ensures both direct and indirect activation of my biceps and triceps throughout the week.

    Thanks this helped alot and I’ve been having this sweet taste in my mouth for months now at first I thought it was normal but then I talked to my mom and she said it’s not and I don’t mind the sweet taste because i love sweets lol but when it gets to a point when you feel like you’re going to throw up that’s a problem and I also have other problems with my mouth like it feels tight my tongue gets swollen it feels like something’s on my face and I also get a sour taste in my mouth so yeah alot of mouth problems and I’ve been to plenty of doctors and they don’t know what to do you have any suggestions for me 🤔🤷🏾‍♂️

    • @XFitCoaching
      @XFitCoaching 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks for sharing, and I’m glad the video helped! It sounds like you’ve been dealing with some pretty uncomfortable symptoms for a while. While I’m not a medical professional, there could be a few things to explore: 1. Hydration and Diet: Sometimes, dehydration or certain foods can cause unusual tastes in the mouth. Try increasing your water intake and cutting back on sugary or acidic foods for a bit to see if that helps. 2. Allergies or Sensitivities: Swollen tongue or tightness in the mouth could be a sign of an allergic reaction or sensitivity to certain foods or environmental factors. You might want to track when these symptoms occur and check for any patterns. 3. Gut Health: The sour taste and other symptoms could also point to gut health issues, like acid reflux or a bacterial imbalance. Consider asking your doctor about this or maybe even seeing a specialist. 4. Mental Fitness and Stress: Stress can also manifest in strange physical ways, including in your mouth. Incorporating daily mental fitness, such as mindfulness or stress-reducing exercises, might be something to try, especially if you’ve been feeling overwhelmed. Definitely keep pushing for answers, and maybe explore seeing a dentist or a gastroenterologist if you haven’t yet.
