Most people perform the basic bicep curl wrong.

They go too heavy and as a result, their elbows creep forwards.

This then activates the front deltoid in your shoulder, the muscle that you normally use for pressing movements.

Have you ever felt that burn right at the top of your arm on a heavy back and bicep Day?

That’s your front delt taking over

Instead, Try, this 👇

Feet planted with a slight bend in the knee to give yourself a good base.

Draw the shoulders back.

Perform the curl whilst keeping the elbows pinned back, don’t let them come forwards.

Allow your arms to go straight at the bottom of the movement or the eccentric phase, this will give you much more range of motion and you’ll get more out of the exercise.

STATIC STRETCHING… we all do it. But do you actually know WHY? 👀

First, remember this:

👉 STATIC = STILL

Unlike dynamic stretching, you’re taking a muscle into a comfortable stretch position and holding it.

So why would we use it?

🧘‍♀️ To develop flexibility
Regular static stretching can improve range of motion and flexibility over time.

❤️ Perfect for your cool-down
After the main workout, we want to gradually reduce the intensity. Static stretches fit here because we’re no longer trying to prepare the body for explosive movement.

⏱️ The HOLD matters
Simply pulling your leg back for 5 seconds and swapping sides isn’t enough if your goal is developing flexibility. In our Level 2 sessions, we teach learners to use an appropriate hold, at least 30 seconds.

And here’s the bit I REALLY want future coaches to understand:

Warm-up = prepare the body to MOVE.
Cool-down = gradually reduce intensity + flexibility work.

That’s why you’ll generally see dynamic movement in the warm-up and static stretching in the cool-down.

Knowing exercises is one thing.

Understanding WHY, WHEN and HOW to use them is what makes you a coach. 💛🖤

Want to learn the WHY behind training rather than just copying workouts?

Thinking about becoming a PT? Read this BEFORE choosing your course. 👀

1️⃣ WHO you qualify with matters.
Don’t just see “Personal Trainer Course” and assume they’re all the same. Check the awarding organisation, recognition, support, assessments and who is actually teaching you. Do your research.

2️⃣ Nearly EVERYONE feels like an imposter at first.
“I’m not fit enough.”
“I don’t know enough.”
“Who would want me as their PT?”

You’re not supposed to know everything yet. That’s why you learn. Confidence comes from knowledge, practice and actually doing it.

3️⃣ This is the one that stops MOST people…

We speak to SO many people who tell us:

“I’d absolutely love to become a PT.”

Then comes the BUT.

But I’m busy.
But maybe next month.
But I’m nervous.
But what if I’m not good enough?

And suddenly another 6 months has passed.

The people who eventually qualify aren’t necessarily the ones who felt the most ready.

They’re the ones who actually took the first step.

So if you’ve been watching our page thinking “I would LOVE to do this…”

Maybe this is your sign to stop watching. 💛🖤

👇 Comment PT and we’ll show you exactly what that first step looks like.

Something BIG is coming to Make Me A PT… 👀💛🖤

And this one is for the coaches who are ready to LEVEL UP.

We’ve been working behind the scenes on something that will take your knowledge, your coaching and what you can offer your clients to a completely different level.

I’m saying NOTHING else yet. 🤐

But if you know your fitness qualifications… there might already be a few clues in this post. 👀🏋️

Think you know what we’re launching?

👇 COMMENT “SECRET”

I’ll tell you privately if you’re right… and you’ll be one of the first to hear when we officially reveal it.

Make Me A PT is LEVELING UP. 🔥

£3,684 RAISED FOR St Catherine's Hospice 💛🖤
Doing Born Survivor
But there’s something a lot of you following Make Me A PT might not actually know about us…

Alongside training the next generation of Future Fit Pros, we still own and run our own transformation gym.

And I think that REALLY matters when you’re choosing who to learn from.

We’re not just sitting behind a laptop marking your work and teaching you anatomy.

We’re still doing it.

We still coach real people.
We still transform lives.
We still run a fitness business.
We still manage a team.
We still experience the highs, challenges and realities of this industry every single day.

And we started exactly where some of you are now.

We got qualified. We worked in commercial gyms. We started coaching from our garage at home. Then came our first gym… then our second.

Eventually we realised something.

To help MORE people, we didn’t need to keep opening more gyms.

We needed to help create more incredible coaches.

And that’s why Make Me A PT exists.

We can teach you what’s required to gain your qualification — but we can also give you something you won’t find written on an assessment sheet:

REAL experience from actually building a career and business in this industry.

This weekend was another reminder of exactly why we love what we do. Our incredible AK Active family took on BORN SURVIVOR and together we’ve raised £3,684 for St Catherine’s Hospice. ❤️

Fitness has given us a career, a business, an incredible community and opportunities I genuinely never imagined when I first got qualified.

So if you’re sitting there wondering…

“Could I actually do this?”

I wondered exactly the same thing.

You don’t need to know where your journey will eventually take you.

You just need to take the first step.

We’ll help you with the rest. 💛🖤

“I just want to feel fitter and healthier.”

As a coach, that’s where the conversation STARTS, not where it ends. 👀

Because “healthier” could mean:

🏃‍♀️ Walking upstairs without getting breathless
⚖️ Losing 10kg
🏅 Running a marathon
🛍️ Being strong enough to carry the shopping
👨‍👩‍👧 Having more energy for the family
❤️ Simply staying active and independent for longer

Same words. Completely different goals. Completely different programmes.

That’s why a good consultation is SO important.

Your job as a Fitness Coach isn’t to hand everyone the same copy-and-paste workout.

It’s to listen, ask the right questions and dig deeper.

What does your client actually want?
Why does it matter to them?
What could stop them achieving it?
Is there anything medically that needs considering?
And how can YOU safely help them get there?

We’ve seen this first-hand in our own fitness studio — from people losing over 100kg to people whose goal is simply to stay stronger and independent as they get older.

Different person = different WHY = different programme.

And this is exactly what we prepare our learners for. 💛🖤

We give you the consultation templates, teach you what to ask, explain why you’re asking it, and support you until you can confidently do it yourself.

Because getting qualified isn’t just about passing an assessment.

It’s about being ready when a real client sits in front of you.

(I would not have been able to do it without every single one of my team members! & I know I should have stopped but I’ve wanted to do this for so long & I loved it so much well done team! I couldn’t have done it without you (over & out, no more obstacles course for the near future) back to helping the next
