Hi Garrett,

My philosophy is to achieve the unrealistic and I believe you can cure your trouble spots like I have. My personal “trouble spot” was overall being too skinny. It was impossible for me to gain weight, as hard as that is to imagine! I decided to tweak my workout routine a little bit and have discovered amazing results. I increased my strength by %22.2. My Bench Press went from 135lb to 165lbs and increased total body weight by 10lbs (155lb – 165lb) in as little as 3 weeks! And my blood pressure was excellent.

I am always testing and studying new ways of working out with different combinations of exercises and varying techniques. I like to see what develops the best results in the shortest amount of time, of course in the safest possible manner. The below exercises are great regarding your question. I found that the exercises listed below were key supplements to my progress as well as other studies I have read about…These are just a few exercises to fix those bodily imbalances, improve strength, and increase endurance.

1. Full Turkish Get-up: An excellent exercise for core strength, stability, and improving total body balance.
2. Kettle-Bell Swing: A great exercise for improving full body strength and power in your legs and developing a better Posterior, which is key to your improving your posture.
3. Full Burpee: This is a great endurance exercise, burns calories, and helps to break through your physical limits.

As always, make sure to focus on excellent technique to prevent injury.

Good Luck!
