The foundation of smart training lies in six essential movement patterns every human should be able to execute properly for injury-free movement and lifelong strength. Jeff walks us through his fitness journey and breaks down how to properly approach strength training for optimal results.• Six foundational movement patterns: squat, hinge, lunge, push, pull, and carry• Squats work quads, glutes, core, and lower back while improving posture and mobility• The hinge is the most forgotten pattern - bending at the hips, not the spine• Lunges provide single-leg work for balance and symmetry• Push movements are typically over-trained while pull patterns are often neglected• The carry is the most practical pattern for developing full-body strength and grip• Focus on quality over quantity, moving slowly with proper form• Stop or regress any movement that causes sharp pain• Core bracing is key for proper execution of all movement patterns• Start with two sets of 6-12 reps, progressing by adding load rather than more setsWhen we serve others, true joy comes from a genuine desire to make a positive difference, not from external validation. Don't use appreciation as fuel for your service – the opportunity to help others is the gift.
