    Building legs without squats or presses

    This is yet an experiment within an experiment. Most of you are aware of what I'm doing in my training journal, and that I no longer squat..., or do any leg pressing/lunging movements. So the question is this: do you think I can build my legs to a respectable size (or at least to their former...

    Shoulders and the different presses

    Okay, if you're a bodybuilder, choose the first one. If you're a MMA fighter, then choose the second one and imagine the ceiling is your opponent's face. If you're an Olympic weightlifter, you can do all of them. xLcntfkyXbM Fadi.
