Landon Martz - Realistic Fitness Goals

  Hi everyone, for my final blog, I decided to talk about setting realistic fitness goals for yourself. I think one of the most important parts is to focus on yourself. And in the beginning, start small with your progress not expecting perfection.  As an example, instead of trying to work out every single day as much as possible, set yourself a goal for three or four days a week and then adding more from there. It’s also important to keep track of small wins like lifting a little more weight and hitting a PR or running your mile a bit faster. Little improvements add up over time to remind you that change takes time. Fitness isn’t about comparing yourself to anyone else but yourself. 

Landon Martz - Healthy Sleep Habits

  Sleep is a very important part in our day to day life. Its vital to staying healthy, but it’s also one of the most ignored parts of health. Getting enough rest helps your body recover and prevent sickness.It keeps your mind focused and healthy, and even boosts your mood throughout the day. When you don’t get enough sleep, it can lead to brain fog, low energy, and poor academic performance in school or sports. Making sleep a priority in your life will improve both physical and mental wellness.

  I feel like for the average college student alot of our days start with scrolling on the phone and end with scrolling on the phone. Its hard to balence a healthy amount of screen time and can hurt our physical and mental wellness. Finding a balance means setting limits for yourself and making time for movement/physical activity, socializing with friends, and a healthy amount of rest. It’s not about giving up screens altogether it’s about using it more wisely and remembering to make time for yourself and keeping you healthy.

Landon Martz - Leg Day! 10/27/25

  Hey everyone! At first today I was struggling to pick a topic to talk about for my first blog. But as I’m doing this I am getting ready to go to the ARC for my leg day so I figured I’d walk you through a leg day with me. I usually like to start out with a 5-10 minute incline treadmill walk or a stationary bike ride. After I’m loose I like to go right over to the hip abduction and adduction and do 2x12-15 on each. Then I usually go to the standing calf raise and do two heavy sets to failure and get calves out of the way. Then comes barbell or dumbbell rdls, I like a warm up set then 2 heavy sets of 6-8. Next up is light, smith machine squats focusing on control and stretch, I also like to do a warm up set then 2 sets of 6-8. Then to end my workout, I do two sets to failure with a drop set on the second set with both leg extensions and hamstrings curls (either seated or laying down.) I hope this gave some good insight on my leg day and hope you learned something new or can tell me ...
