The Zercher Squat is an great exercise for the legs and core. With the Zercher squat, it is easier to maintain a more upright posture, which allows for a greater squat depth (people with longer torsos may find this squat more comfortable than traditional back squat as helps maintain upright position). How To perform "It teaches you exactly how to squat. It teaches you to push your knees apart. Push your chest up. Push your buttocks out. The whole nine yards.”- Louis Simmons

I am often asked about supplements, if they are needed and what are the benefits.
Some supplements may have beneficial effects however no amount of supplementation will compensate for inadequate dietary intake. When you are looking at supplements ask yourself 3 things- 1) How will the supplement benefit me? (Eg am I deficient, in any essential nutrients and will this supplement help or how will it help improve performance) Great exercise for targeting the muscles of the posterior chain- hamstrings/glutes/lower back muscles. Good Conditioning exercise that will also work the abs. In this video I demonstrate and explain technique for Death Marches here at Aberdeen Fitness & Combat Centre. Jamie Miller Personal Trainer
Aberdeen  Detox- What do these products actually do?! There is an abundance of products, diets and supplements which claim to "detox or cleanse " and help undo all the damage done with the boozing and poor lifestyle choices with quick fixes. They are typically marketed as amazing products that help "cleanse" your body and aid in weight loss. However..... It is very hard to find any proper research to back the claims of these products or find any evidence as to how effective they are, either for long term weight loss or being able to eliminate waste products from the body. In fact a lot of companies don't even know what toxins their product targets or can give a definition of what detox is. WHAT IS A CLEANSE OR DETOX......??
It is difficult to get a specific definition for what a "cleanse" is. Many Cleanse products will tell us the body accumulates toxins through our lifestyle choices, pollutants etc. The Snatch is a very explosive movement. The bar is taken from a static position to a standing position with the bar overhead in one fluid motion. Great exercise for developing speed-strength. For athletes, it is a great exercise to help develop power, speed, precision and mobility In this video is a practice session with Client Lorraine. First day she has tried this multi-muscle, multi-joint lift. Really good going for first attempts at the snatch. Basic Technique Tips
