Drew Scott 'Property Brothers' gives training tips and home tours

Drew Scott lets the fans know how to make your body look as good as the houses that he repairs.

The star “Property Brothers” showed his home fitness studio in a YouTube video shared on February 26, in which he also revealed some of his favorite exercises.

“I get up there in years, so it's not just about lifting and trying to make muscles,” he said in the video tour. “For me, it's more about having the lifespan of entertaining life, which means being able to move. I want to touch my toes when I'm 80 years old. “

“It is important for me to train because I have other things in my life,” he said.

The HGTV star mentioned that he continued to renovate houses and recently made a Cameo appearance in Oscar winner Ke Huy Quan's film “Love Hurts”.

“I had to make a combat sequence and for a long time I was no longer in martial art,” he added, adding that he was “National Champion in Shotokan Karate” for “seven or eight years”.

Scott spoke about how he is a former personal trainer, what “many people don't know” about him.

“I went to the school for kinesiology for four years,” he said. “I studied the body. My main goal was always to ensure that someone had more flexibility and more movement so that they could do everyday tasks without having pain. “

Here are some of Scott's tips on how to achieve maximum results from his garage workouts.

Pilates

Scott said Pilates was “the most amazing”, even for men who look down on it.

“This is the best in the world,” he said, pointing to a Pilates reformer that his wife Linda Phan had the idea of ​​getting the idea.

“When I started to train here, I realized how much this helps every aspect of my training, and it also helps me in life,” he said, adding that it made it easier to wear his 2-year-old son Parker and enabled him to carry out squats and upper body exercises.

Dumbbell

Scott, the father of Parker and the little daughter Piper, holds two different sets of dumbbells in his garage, including an adjustable thing to save space. He also has adjustable kettlebells.

“Anyone who initially came up with the idea of ​​adjustable dumbbells, I love you,” he said.

Bicycle

Scott has a bike, but admits: “I rarely use it” and preferred to use it as a two -minute warming up because he doesn't like Cardio.

Cable

Scott said he developed problems in his arms and wrists due to the wearing of Parker, so he has cables on a wall and says: “It gives me the versatility to do all the different exercises that I need.”

He also has a cable machine with which he carries out strength training, strength training and dampening training that resembles a rowing machine.

“You can do any cable exercise you want here. In fact, I can set the weight for the pressure and train, ”he said, while demonstrating on his cable machine.

TRX suspension training

Scott showed how his TRX set enables him to lean back and work on his back.

“So if I wanted to do some kind of body weight exercise, I have my trx, I always traveled with it,” he said. “But you can sit back and you can exercise, drawings, whatever you want.”
