@joeythurmanfit shows us how to maximize our workout with minimal effort!

Iām 43. And I wouldnāt listen to my 23-year-old self. Or most people in their 20s, for that matter. š
Before you get mad at me, hear me out.
Recovery? Didnāt know what that was. Unless you count family-sized popcorn chicken, mashed potatoes, and a DQ Brownie Earthquake.
Sleep? Circadian rhythm? What the hell was that? I went to bed when I wanted, woke up when I wanted, and honestly didnāt care.
Nutrition? If it wasnāt fried or sweet, I probably wasnāt eating it. Vegetables werenāt even in my vocabulary. Fruit? Sure, if it was candy-flavored.
Training? 2ā3 hours in the gym. PLUS hockey practice 3ā4 days a week. PLUS games on the weekends. On the ice constantly. More was always better. Or so I thought.
I was an absolute mess.
And the funniest part? I thought I knew EVERYTHING.
Hereās something Iāve learned with age: The people who think they know everything usually have the most to learn.
43-year-old me would LOVE to train 23-year-old me.
But 23-year-old me probably wouldāve told me to shut up and gone back to doing curls. š
These days I train less, recover more, eat better, and genuinely feel better than I did 20 years ago.
Experience is a hell of a teacher. But only if youāre willing to learn.
Whatās ONE thing you wish you could tell your 23-year-old self?

Every meathead before the lift: Hoodie on. Head down. Donāt talk to me. š
Every meathead AFTER the pump: Suddenly, itās a fashion show. šŖ
But all jokes asideā¦
Iām 43. I feel better than I did at 23. And hereās the kickerā¦
I actually work out LESS.
Not because Iām getting lazy. Because Iāve gotten smarter.
Less junk volume. More intentional training. Better recovery. More consistency.
Iāve learned that you donāt have to destroy yourself in the gym to build a body that looks good, feels good, and actually performs.
And the older I get, the more I realize fitness isnāt just about how you look with your shirt off.
Itās about having the energy, strength, confidence, and longevity to show up for the people who matter most.
You can do this. You got this.
Be there for yourself so you can be there for everyone else.
Now be honest⦠are you a hoodie-on or hoodie-off lifter? šš

I was diagnosed with clinical depression at 14. Iāve been on and off antidepressants most of my life. Iām currently on them.
All the muscle, discipline, and hard work in the world donāt make you immune to whatās happening inside your own head.
If you know someone struggling with depression, or even just having a really bad day, please donāt tell them ādonāt be sadā or āthings will get better.ā
I know the intentions are good, but those words DO NOT help. Sometimes they make things worse.
Want to know what actually helps?
Listen. No judgment. Just love.
Sometimes people donāt need you to fix them. They just need you to be there. ā¤ļø

šļø Your 90 minute workout is a waste. This back workout took 25 minutes.
Iām 43. I feel better and look better than I did at 23.
I used to train 90 minutes to 2 hours. More sets. More time. I knew better and still did it.
This one starts on a lat pulldown and itās over before most people finish warming up. Short. Purposeful. No junk volume.
If youāre still in the gym at the hour mark, youāre not training harder. Youāre just staying longer.
Save this for your next back day. Drop your usual session time below.

Stop doing every cable fly the same way.
Changing the cable angle can shift the emphasis across different regions of the chest:
Low-to-high cable fly = more upper chest emphasis
Straight-across cable fly = more mid-chest emphasis
High-to-low cable fly = more lower chest emphasis
Same exercise. Different line of pull. Better intent.
Save this for your next chest workout.

š Donāt Wreck Your Shoulders Doing Triceps Dips
Bench dips can be a great bodyweight exercise for building stronger tricepsābut poor form can put unnecessary stress on your shoulders.
ā WRONG: Shoulders roll forward, chest collapses, and your body drifts too far away from the bench.
ā
RIGHT: Keep your shoulders pulled back and down, chest tall, and elbows bending behind you. Stay close to the bench and let your triceps do the work.
If dips usually bother your shoulders, check your positioning before ditching the exercise altogether.
Save this for your next arm workout.

Does cardio kill your gains? The research says no. š«
Nearly 30 studies: lifting alone built ~13% muscle. Lifting + cardio? Also ~13%. Same growth.
Some studies showed even MORE muscle when cardio was added.
The one catch: itās muscle SIZE, not max strength. Only sky-high cardio volume ā or running yourself into the ground right before you lift ā dents strength.
So stop skipping conditioning to protect gains that were never at risk.
Lift hard. Do your cardio. Just donāt sprint before squats. šŖ
Save this before you argue with your gym bro. š

Wrong vs Right leg Press! You should feel like you are giving birth š«
Feet wide, turned out (more glutes), allow the knees to track outside of your hips.
