Let CoopersGuns help you recover from your injuries.

We have added instructional videos of the exercises needed to help recover from specific injuries. They are available for viewing in the rehab exercises section and more will follow in the next week.

We have also added instructional videos for core stability exercises and stretches.

These sections are still under construction and many more videos will be added in the coming weeks. The lovely Emma was kind enough to model for the videos so please take a look even if you are not injured!

Sarah has posted an excellent article on frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis). It is available for your reading pleasure in the injuries section. If you suffer from frozen shoulder or know someone who does, be sure to give it a read as you never know how much it could help.

If you’re a student studying anything related to the human body have a skim through our articles as they may prove to be useful study aids.

If some people eat one food not on their plan, their failure to be perfect sets in motion a psychological chain of events that leads to frustration and the inability to get right back on the plan. The all-or-nothing mentality sets in and BAM, they’re back to nothing. But it doesn’t have to be this way. 100% nutritional discipline is never required for optimal progress. The difference, in results, between 90% adherence to your nutrition program and 100% adherence is negligible. So allow yourself the extra 10% wiggle room. This will allow you the freedom to eat a few extra things not on your menu without the guilt and subsequent crash.

I recommend more calories than most do. That’s because there’s no such thing as a stagnant metabolic set-point. Instead, metabolism chases intake. So, if you want a bigger metabolism, you need a bigger food intake. And if you’re worried about fat gain with this approach, just use outcome-based decision making and adjust energy (calorie) intake every two weeks based on your results. Not much ‘damage’ can take place in only two weeks. So if you end up boosting your metabolism, you’ll be thanking me eternally. And if it turns out you’re consuming too much, you can just adjust down.
