Hi Guys
What would you consider as a light workout week?. Slowing the reps down?, 12 rep exercises just lifting enough not to failure and reducing your volume?.
just asking as my light weeks are still creating me doms due to always contracting and using TOT technique but not as much strain as a...

Very interesting theory that goes against everything I've been taught.
Have always been to exhale upon contraction pushing air from diaphragm allowing muscles to contract stronger.
Today, I did as Jeff said in his video, and the contractions were just as strong as if I had done the opposite...

Hey everyone,
Do many people on here use personal trainers? and where do you go to find them?
I have had a few sessions with various PT's (just to help with technique and general programming) but some were unprofessional and really didnt know what was going on.
I have come across a new...

I recently changed my bench technique after attending a seminar. It feels better on my shoulders and I feel stronger but I'm nnoticing on days where I deadlift after I'm pretty sore through Tye back from arching more..
Will that go away? Will I just get used to it?

Hey guys new here, will post up my full routine in another thread.
Big fan of stiff-legged deads for hitting the hams, but I seem to be struggling with the technique. I seem to feel it more in my lower back.
Watched a few videos but not really helping.
Also, I've gone right down in weight and...

So we have been dis-cussing how useful the eccentric part of the rep is for most exercises. By most I mean exercises that primarily move single joints and definitely some compounds too.
On the other side of the coin I am sure there are a few exercises where slow eccentrics would not be...

This IronEdge article has almost all the go to links, vids and articles you need to learn how to use kettlebells properly ... to get the most out of them as well as use them safely.
It's an excellent post.
For anyone who is self-taught or cannot/will not go to get some proper coaching in how...
I wrote this guide after finally figuring out exactly what I needed to do to get the most out of my deadlift without feeling uncomfortable, sore or just plain awkward.
I am nowhere near an advanced level, I just simply want to give this option to you just in case it also helps you. Please feel...
I'd like to give stiff-leg deads a go. Where would I find solid info on form for that lift?
Being trained is just not an option where I am: internet tutorials and shit like that is what I've got to go on. So they've gotta be good! :)

Hey, thought I'd make a thread about bench press technique, specifically the arch itself.
This is not the thread to bitch and moan about safety and "health"
Anyway, since the sessions at PTC Brisbane and following Scott's advice, my bench technique has much improved. My grip is now right out...
I've known the first one for a long time, but some of the others are even better Powerlifting Heads-Up
I also strolled onto Arnold's website and found this article with some goods tips for those people who haven't yet mastered the squat Top 6 Best Squat Tips | Arnold Schwarzenegger
So a few guys have asked if I can post up a few pointers on the bench.
Im no bench specialist, but hopefully the following can help you out a little.
Setup
First things first, we need to set our grip width. 81cm is the maximum legal grip that can be used in competition, so given my levers...
ive been looking at vids on youtube and a few of the form checks on here,
The more experienced lifters on here would know alot beter what i should be looking for and look at.
Theres so man vids out there im not sure which is corect although there all pretty similar.
Just looking for some...
So my technique is mostly what I've learned from Rippetoe, but since my buddies have been pestering me for awhile that I should not have my elbows UP and instead they should be down I did some research online and have come to the conclusion that most people recommend elbows down. And since my...
