The Hardest workout is always that first one! Shout out to my girl @jiyao.z for stepping it up with her training and making her health and wellness a priority. I see more and more young people seeing the benefits of a lifestyle of longevity and awareness and it really gives me hope! ✊🏾Respect! #strotherpt #wellness #fitness #strengthandconditioning #bodysculpting #mobility #glutes #newyork (at Strother Personal Training) https://www.instagram.com/p/BynE_wBhQ_r/?igshid=1g4e6fz5vy5u3

Everything you do requires a firm foundation for you to operate from. Once you've established that foundation you can then play with high risk vs reward moves like the vew dew push up seen here Everyone I meet that doesn't perform push ups well has always complained about upper body strength being the issue. Or that they have a shoulder that is impinged. When come to find out they simply arent stability a priority in their training. So needless to say: YOU ARE ONLY AS STRONG AS THE DURATION OF TIME THAT YOU CAN STABILIZE. The first thing to learn to control over all else is your midsection. It is your center and therefore the nucleus of all movement especially in this position. So no matter what kind of bells and whistles you add you to your workout, make sure your core gets alot of love! #strotherpt #newyorkcity #lowereastside #fitness #wellness #health #personaltraining #privatetraining #motivation #core #abs #pushup #vewdew #bjj #stability #control (at New York, New York)

ⱠɄ₴₮ I'm no stranger to showing a little skin. After years of hard work on myself I'm comfortable in my own skin to do so. But as usual, there are a different set of rules if you have a vagina, It seems like my female counter parts have a different set of rules when it comes to IG. Especially for sexually charged industries like personal training. The common misconception is that if they are visualized as hyper sexualized goddesses they will catch the eye of the consumer. Be that as it may, It shouldnt matter if if they are performers, models, or sex workers these women deserve your respect not your condemnation and unsolicited dick pics. The goal on here isnt to tear others down but to express ourselves openly and freely without fear or shame.⚡💀⚡💀⚡💀⚡ Original photo by the talented @maysgrafx Featuring the beautiful @kellycomatose #strotherpt #newyorkcity #lowereastside #fitness #wellness #personaltraining #privatetraining #motivation #sevendeadlysins #lust #personaldevelopment (at New York, New York)

“Perception is strong and sight weak. In strategy it is important to see distant things as if they were close and to take a distanced view of close things.” -Miyamoto Musashi #strotherpt #wellness #fitness #health #personaltraining #bushido #martialarts #miyamotomusashi #martialarts #newyork #lowereastside #chelsea

A true warrior lives by their words and dies by their actions. They know that what they say has more impact then any blow they could deliver. Be very careful of what you say. Whether your words wound or heal the people around your actions will remain long after you are gone. #strotherpt #fitness #personaltraining #wellness #health #martialarts #newyork #lowereastside #chelsea #warrior

We can’t do much for those who’ve passed but we can take care of the brave men and women that are here with us now! 🖤The 1st image represents the number of homeless veterans there are in the Us The second number is the number of disabled vets injured from active duty. The third number is the current status of Vets who don’t have healthcare in this country. Cousin Derek served in Vietnam. There weren’t a lot of options for black men like him at the time and like every one of the men in my family he CHOSE to serve his country. The things he saw there scared him for life. He never received help and turned to drinking to get through the day. Until he couldn’t take it anymore and took his own life. This is completely unnecessary! We must prioritize those that sacrifice their lives with something more then discounts at car dealerships and allowing them to board the plane first. We have to hold ourselves accountable as a society. Which is why I’m offering Free personal training for any wounded veteran for a month! So if you or if you know anyone who would love the opportunity to transform themselves who has served our country please send me a DM! #strotherpt #Memorialday #veteran #freepersonaltraining #personaltraining #privatetraining #wellness #newyork #health #rehabilitation (at United States)

Blowing the dust off of the @vewdoboards this week with a 115lb clean! The secret to training on the board is controlling your hips and shoulders. Once you've mastered these essential moves the next progression is to do it while wearing denim. Not only will jeans add more resistance by restricting your movement, it will also give you that coveted homeless look that the kids love! So obviously this move comes highly recommended! 💪💀🔥 #strotherpt #fitness #wellness #health #personaltraining #skyhealth #balance #privatetraining #newyork #lowereastside #chelsea #flatiron (at SKY HEALTH)

Ive found my favorite new ab exercise courtesy of @renzogracieacademy ! Nothing gets your abs clenching for dear life like the KILLBOX drill! My Russian friend on the left is a south paw and my homie on the right was ortho so I was getting it at both ends! Now if you'll excuse me, I have to use the restroom. 🔥💀🔥 #strotherpt #fitness #wellness #health #personaltraining #muaythai #boxing #martialarts #mma #privatetraining #newyork #lowereastside #chelsea #flatiron #newyorkcity (at Renzo Gracie Academy NYC)
