Fitness Motivation Is About More Than Physical Results, Just Ask Jeff!

October 6, 2017 by Jessica 6 Comments

JeffSchofieldToday Innovative Results is stoked to highlight soccer stud, and director of the LA Galaxy South Bay College Prep Program for girls, Jeff Schofield!

When did you start training at Innovative Results?
I started in November of 2014

Why did you start training with Innovative Results?
I started training there because I was looking for something different than running and going to the gym on my own. Being a former collegiate athlete I missed the intensity of workouts, energy of exercising with other like-minded people, and motivation of coach/trainer. I chose Innovative Results because it worked perfectly with my schedule. I teach during the day and then am a soccer coach at night so I needed something early afternoon and their large number of class times worked well for me.

What have you improved since you started training with Innovative Results?
Of course, I have improved many physical aspects such as speed, strength, increased core strength, lower body fat, and my clothes fit better. It also improved many aspects of my life in addition to the physical. I enjoyed setting goals and working hard to attain them. I enjoyed the relationships I built with the other clients and trainers. I improved my self-image and confidence.

What kept you coming back to Innovative Results?
It is a competitive and motivating environment that includes unique exercises that are very functional for everyday life. I also enjoy that you do a certain set of exercises for 3 weeks, which allows you to set goals for that period and try to improve at those exercises before they change it for the next set of 3 weeks.

How has Innovative Results improved the other areas of your life (i.e. work, relationships, finances, education)?
I have mainly used the knowledge and exercise for my job in coaching soccer and as a PE teacher. There are so many ways to strengthen and increase mobility and flexibility using just body weight and I have adapted a lot of what I do at IR to my teams and classes. This last year I started at a new school and their percent of students that pass the Physical Fitness Test was 44%. I did a lot of exercises that I use at IR to help them improve. For students, they need a variety of exercises to prepare for the test not just the same push ups, sit-ups, mile run, etc. As a result, my students passed at a 73% rate. I credit IR for providing me the tools to help my students.

What advice do you have for someone who is just getting started with Innovative Results?
It is going to be challenging at first. You will be sore and some of the exercises you won’t quite get immediately, but have an open mind and stay with it. Before you know it, you will be one of the regulars that is encouraging the new people.

How has your life changed since you started training at Innovative Results?
I feel better physically which improves all aspects of life. I used to wake up in the morning and was in pain as I would get out of bed. That pain is gone and I am able to play soccer more consistently without being sore or in pain.

Who would you want to experience what you get to experience at Innovative Results?
I think anybody that is looking to improve their health should come and be a part of IR. There is every kind of client there from teenagers, elite athletes, former athletes, to injured clients. The workouts can be adapted for you to make it challenging for everyone and to get out of it what you want.

Why do you stay committed to your improvement in and out of the gym?
I realize that life is much more enjoyable when you are pain free and mentally it is good to challenge yourself.

Can you relate to Jeff’s story? We’d love to hear from you!

Lacrosse Athlete Gains Explosive Power & Endurance by Training at Innovative Results

September 18, 2017 by Jessica 1 Comment

emilycannonToday Innovative Results’ is highlighting one of our incredible student-athletes, Emily Cannon.

This young lady’s dedication, persistence, and strength is beyond compare. The Innovative Results Team cannot wait to see what is in store for Emily’s future, and athletic career!

Here is Emily’s Testimonial Interview given by Manny Aragon(MA) for Innovative Results.

MA: When did you start coming to Innovative Results (IR)?

Emily: Last year when I got my license.

MA: 2016?

Emily: Yeah.

MA: Why did you start training here (at IR)?

Emily: Because my dad went and he explained the workouts and I thought it looked fun. So I came. I did try it out before 2016 with my dad.

MA: What would you say has changed in your life from your training?

Emily: My endurance. And all around strength.

MA: So- what does that look like? You play sports- correct?

Emily: Yes. In Lacrosse I notice a difference in my endurance- in keeping up in the game.

MA: So what position do you play? Attack? image3

Emily: Yes. Attack. I’m staying in longer, I don’t get tired as easily and I don’t need as many breaks as I used to. (Ed. Note: Attack is a strength endurance position requiring bursts of explosive speed and power). My leg muscles keep me powering through.

MA: And what’s kept you coming back?

Emily: I like all of the trainers- they’re fun and its not boring workouts- I’m not, I’m not DREADING the workout, its FUN!

MA: How has IR contributed to success in other parts of your life?

Emily: Ummm Its kept me MOTIVATED. My dad and I always use the #IRstrong saying whether its homework im doing- My dad always says “IR strong Emily- you can do it”– and I say “Yeah, I CAN do it!” (laughs) “Yeah.”

MA: What advice would you have for someone who is new here?

Emily: Don’t be scared that you can’t do something- there is always modifications. And its not embarrassing if you’re not as strong as other people.

MA: Who would you want to experience what you’ve experienced here at IR?

Emily: My sister. She wants to start coming here. And I want her to experience what I’ve experienced.

MA: What do you think she’ll get out of it?

Emily: People skills. Being with people who you’re not normally with. I’m never with old people- so now I’m like used to it…

MA: Why do you stay committed to IR?

Emily: Because I look good. I’ve gotten toned- I like it.

MA: Have other people noticed?

Emily: Um-Hmm.

MA: In what way? Positive?

Emily: Yes. Positive.

MA: Anything else to add?

Emily: (pointing at the camera) “I LOVE Innovative Results!”

BOOM!

10 Things The Best Athletes Do – For Any Athlete in Training

September 14, 2015 by Jessica Leave a Comment

Usian Bolt Celebrating after a sprint

Maybe you aren’t looking to become the next Serena Williams, Derek Jeter, Usian Bolt, Michael Phelps or Mia Hamm, but if you participate in a strength and conditioning program you my friend are an ATHLETE.

So what are these “next level” athletes doing to build that ‘ideal physique’ that many of us train and work are tails off for? The answers probably won’t SHOCK you, but in order to reach your personal fitness goals, it may be time to hear the facts.

Eat to Perform put together a list of the Top 10 things that the best athletes do that you likely are not doing.

10 Things The Best Athletes Do, That You Can Too!

1. They don’t look for a quick fix.

keep-calm-there-s-no-quick-fix

That admirable, and ‘ideal physique’ came from dedicating countless hours of training and programming. These athletes did not earn their bodies over a couple weeks, and they never, ever gave up on their dreams. If you feel discouraged with your fitness results, as many of us do at times, you won’t find the resolution by giving up. You have to be dedicated to the basics, and put in the time. Enjoy the journey, and be delighted in your small accomplishments because in time they will be your BIGGEST accomplishments.

2. They know where they are, where they want to go, and how to get there.

goals

The best athletes move from one goal to the next to uphold their sense of interest. If you find yourself struggling to maintain focus or passion, set a SMART Goal. Something as simple as a lifting PR, or taking seconds off your mile run – then set a deadline (realistic), and most importantly commit to the goal.

3. They don’t try to reach their physique goals by cutting Calories.

EAT TO TRAIN, do not train to eat. The best athletes are rarely looking to cut their daily caloric intake. Their food is used to enhance work capacity, and work to maintain and build the muscle they are training for.

4. They don’t obsess over their abs.

alexviada

My friends those 6 pack abs do not come from 1000’s of crunches.
“The best athletes I know don’t spend a whole lot of time thinking about how to get abs; the work they do ultimately just lands them in that spot.” Alex Viada, Ultra Endurance Athlete, Elite Powerlifter, and beer enthusiast.
Eat to Perform can agree that form follows function, and that if you want to look athletic… well, you are gonna need to BE athletic. Start training to improve your performance and the rest will fall into place.

5. They don’t worry about putting on body fat due to overeating.

Majority of athletes are training to gain hard muscle and not worrying much about losing fat. As Eat To Perform explains, if you want to squat more, for example, “You need to put a lot of quality work into developing your quads and glutes, perfecting your form, and increasing your work capacity. That cannot be accomplished in a Calorie deficit, and it’s a lot harder to do if you’re worried about your scale weight.” It all comes back to the Eat to Train/Perform.

6. They train smart and focus on incremental performance increases.

trainsmart

These days it seems that the majority of folks believe that to perform at their highest levels you should be training all day every, pushing yourself to exhaustion during every training session – more reps, heavier weights, tougher workouts, longer duration etc. The Fitness Industry has news for you – the best athletes DO NOT train this way.

So what are the fittest people in the world doing? They are varying their training with a combination of activities, intensity levels, and modes of training. You will probably find these athletes working on their aerobic capacity in the morning with high intensity interval training (HITT), followed by an evening weight training routine to develop max strength. (They didn’t start out like that, and typically they will do one or the other.) Many times, these athletes are working with coaches that have specifically designed training programs, applying progressive overload overtime so that their performance peaks at a specific time. This programming is never random, it is done with purpose.

7. They don’t feel guilty when they miss workouts.

whoami

Rest is not only necessary, it is immensely beneficial. If you are pushing the limits of human performance you will need to schedule yourself some much needed recovery time. If you are skipping training sessions weeks on end you may need to re-evaluate your time commitments, but don’t feel guilty about skipping a day if you have a consistent training record. A little extra recovery may boost your hunger and commitment in reaching that goal you set!

8. They surround themselves with people who’re better than they are.

What happens if you are the strongest/fastest/best athlete in your gym? The drive to better yourself dwindles, and you are no longer challenged by your surroundings – the old “Big fist-little pond” effect. Maybe its time to change perspective. Athletes will often put themselves out there and seek out new challengers. Find a workout, or challenger that will make you better. Don’t be afraid to fail, use competition as a motivator to advance towards your own individual needs.

9. They constantly seek out new information and develop a broad knowledge base.

Believe it or not, you have the same access to training, nutrition, or motivational materials that high-level performance athletes have. The difference? These athletes are constantly studying and applying new methods. Dedicate time to making yourself 1% better each and every day by reading, pursuing a certification or higher education, or seek out the knowledge of the best coaches in your area.

10. They do EVERYTHING they need to do to be the best they can be.

jonnorthmeme

The best athletes in the world are not without the every day demands that we all face. Many are parents, with time consuming jobs but they make no excuses when it comes to eating clean, training, and recovery.

PMA – Developing a Positive Mental Attitude, or Mindset will help you become the BEST version of yourself. It is about improving the quality of your life, striving for constant improvement, nourishing your body, and being in control of yourself. There is an athlete in you, but you have to be willing to put in the time and “pay the price” for that ‘ideal physique’.

It’s time to set those goals, and go after them!

The Longest 20 Minutes Of Your Life: IR’s Battling Rope Challenge

January 21, 2014 by ptpt 2 Comments

slack ropes Its always important to have a goal, a race, an event or something that motivates you train consistently and with purpose.  Without a reason to show up, working out can easily get pushed to the back burner and fall out of habit.  That’s why we have created a series of challenges throughout our gym and encourage our members to test their fitness level regularly.  One of our favorite challenges is the 20 minute battling rope challenge.

Using a 50′ long, 1.5″ poly cotton blend rope, we perform the alternating wave drill for 20 minutes.  The waves must travel all the way to the anchor point and you cannot stop for the duration of the test.  Simple.

It is difficult, yet safe.

Simple, but effective.

And when people try the ropes for the first time, 20 minutes of continuous work seems impossible.

battling ropes

The battling ropes are challenging, but you can quickly adapt and develop the work capacity to handle long durations of work.   This is perfect for athletes that need to perform for long periods of time, like wrestlers, grapplers, fighters, swimmers and other athletes that want to develop endurance in their grip, arms and shoulders.

Here is a simple training program that we have used multiple times to help people develop the strength, endurance and mental toughness needed to complete the 20 minute Battling Rope Challenge.  There are only two days of training per week and this can be added to most other exercise programs.

Gym, Jog, Yoga, Pilates, Bootcamp, Personal Trainer, Strength Coach: Which Workout is Best for Me?

May 14, 2012 by ptpt 3 Comments

Some people run or bike outside.

Others do hours of ‘cardio’ at the local gym.

Then you have the weight lifting crowd that uses a lot of equipment to develop a better physique.

Which is best?

Well, that completely depends on your goals and how that activity stimulates your brain.

Think about it, do you really enjoy going to the gym?  Some do and they truly feel better when they leave.  Awesome.

I can’t stand regular corporate gyms.  Maybe its because I worked for so many years in that environment…or because I am not able to train the way I want to…either way I just don’t get a good workout in that type of place.

If you are a typical bodybuilder type lifter, you probably depend on that equipment to hit big lifts and focus on muscle hypertrophy.

If you are an athlete, then big gyms don’t usually hit all the pieces of the puzzle.  Athletes should not train like bodybuilders and need more space and benefit from a variety of other tools to reach their potential.  Big gyms don’t typically have sleds, sandbags, heavy ropes, and other tools that help build  athletic performance

Maybe you enjoy yoga or pilates classes.  If that’s your thing and you love the results, by all means get in there.

The key point here is this:  Determine your goals and find a place that supports those goals.

Here are some things to look for in a great activity or gym:

  1. Do you like the people?  Honestly, do you enjoy the people that you workout with?  Maybe you workout on your own, maybe classes, a bootcamp or with a trainer…but do the people encourage you and support you on your road to success?  If not, you need to find a better place.  The gym should feel like a community and you need to be a part of it.
  2. Are you inspired?  I have been in a lot of gyms…some big, some small.  Only a handful were inspiring.  I mean, when you walked in you could feel the energy.  A place where you literally wanted to workout and looked forward to every session.  Other people’s performance or energy can be contagious.  Get around people that inspire you…your results will go through the roof!
  3. Do you get RESULTS?  This is why you joined in the first place, right?  If you are just a member of a health club and DON’T get results, ask for help.  If you are in a bootcamp, take classes, watch videos or workout with a coach…and DON’T get results, you have to try something new or assess other areas of your life.

So, does it really matter where you workout?

NO

I know a lot of people that never set foot in the gym, but they are strong and healthy.  I have other friends that thrive in health clubs.

Just find a place that you love, with people that encourage you and help you reach the goals that motivated you to join in the first place.

Where is your favorite place to workout?
