#!*@ yeah.. holiday in NYC for a month.. hopefully will gain some weight haha maybe 3-5kgs.. then start my cut when I get back and add some muscle. 2012 will be a great great aesthetic year!
I can't go a chest workout without my spotter, its a lot easier - especially with dumbells - when they hand them to you. I've gotten a lot of definition and the weight has gone up with my spotter.
Chewtoy - will get a video for you to analyse sometime next year.
I think I agree with you. Will get a video up to critique.
I need my problem lies on the descent or the way down. I can get the weight off the ground, utilising the hip-thrust. But when I come down, I think I activate my back as holding the weight rather than de-thrusting? the hips...
Yeah i've found a combo of power cleans, shurgs (DB, BB smith) and deadlifts really hit the traps. I don't isolate them, but id like to grow them lol.
Tried to dealift 230 5x5 like last week, but could only muster like 2 sets of 3 fml.. back gets too sore - any help?
Yeah I used to do upright rows - fast foward two years later it hurts when I do them. I'll try give it a go again.
But yeah i've just had good experience with power cleans, shrugs and maybe a shrug after at the top of the deadlift.
I would too also recommend starting strength 5x5. That is...
Whats a good well balanced shoulder exercise routine?
Currently I do something like:
DB or BB shoulder press
Side raises
Smith machine shoulder shrugs (bar behind)
Power cleans
I want to work on the traps too..
Man id keep it a secret - give me $1mil a year for 5 with an option to resign.
You can't blame Kobe's situation - WC athlete, millions of dollars, fame, chics throwing themselves at you. Just got to be smart and respect your marriage/partner. Why get married in the first place?
I dont even wear shoes to the gym lol.. well I rock my chuck taylors then remove em when doing squats, deads etc..
Hell i just rock up covering my body as much as I can during winter
Ahh its important to try and keep the same sleeping schedule each day for consistency sakes. You'll feel so much better.
i.e mon - sun: sleep at 11 wake up at 6 etc..
In some regards a person's personality and their ability to fit into a position/company environment will overule ones GPA/academic history. Having said that, if you have the right attitude/personality coupled with decent grades, you're in pretty good shape.
Frick I need to step up my game and buy some nice sweaters/chinos in America.. J Crew here I come lol.
Is there any other places you guys would recommend to look at? Time is limited and transport will be a $@#*!. I want to check out J Crew, Uniqlo? BR.. Looking to buy some Clark DB's, casual...
^ I havent really messed around with many leg exercises. I've just done squats and lunges with dumbells. I would love to try front squats one day.
I hate those cats who do like 180kg but they squat like 3-4 inches come on son
