Building the Engine: Posterior Chain Work & The "Slow Build" Garage Gym Philosophy

The Workout: Nordic Curls (Scaled): The ultimate hamstring insurance policy. These are notoriously difficult, so I’m using resistance bands for assistance to maintain perfect form and control the eccentric phase. It’s about the stimulus, not the ego. Jefferson Curls: Building spinal segmentation and resilience. Triple Extension Sandbag Work: Explosive power that translates directly to the pop-up and carving deep lines. Garage Gym Philosophy: Approachable & Affordable One of the most common questions I get is how to start a home gym. My advice? Don't buy it all at once. A garage gym should be an evolution, not a massive upfront bill. I’ve built this space piece-by-piece over years. By adding one or two high-value items every few months, you keep it affordable and—more importantly—you actually learn how to use each tool before moving to the next. It stays approachable, and your "gym fee" becomes an investment in gear you’ll own for life.
