This important, unspoken aspect of wellness – Off The Mat

It's been a few weeks since the last Off The Mat email, and I'm excited to be back this week to talk about something VERY important to me - something I think should be equally important to YOU, too - personal time. Personal time is your YOU time. It's when you hang out with yourself and allow your thoughts to process, without anybody but YOU to tell yourself what's right, what's wrong, or to persuade you to think in any one direction.

Dean’s Squat Workout 10, 8, 6, 4

My philosophy for strength training has evolved over the years. When I was younger, my goal was to do as much as I possibly could; essentially get to the point where I could not do one more rep before calling it quits. Now, my goal is to do the necessary amount to provoke the growth response. Volume is great, but sometimes you don’t need as much as you think to get stronger. Check out this video to watch my squat workout, the stretches I do between sets, as well as the post-stretch routine I do to decrease recovery time and make sure I can walk around during the day without too much stiffness.
