STAY/GET BACK IN SHAPE VOL 3.0 -- A New Niketalk = A New Thread

[KHUFU]

your original post stated "especially those who never took their fitness seriously, only concentrating on the so called big 3."

aka powerlifters.

and im correcting you letting you know powerlifters do a lot more than the big 3 and powerlifting is a form of fitness

no goal post was moved here. but carry on.

You said that, the bold underlined, not me. You cannot correct anything, nor anyone, when you are not certain as to who the commentator was addressing.

 

[SpittaJetLife]

You’ve moved the goal posts, so I will reiterate my point. You do not need to do any so called big three, in order to be fit, to get into shape, nor to be healthy and strong. I do not care as to what powerlifters do, modern or old school. The point is, fitness is not determined through powerlifting,. To give an apt example, just because you can’t fight, does not mean that you are not in shape. It simply means that you can’t fight.

That gif lmao

those without a squat rack, how are you working on your legs?

 

[SpittaJetLife]

Started running again this week. Might as well get some cardio in every day.

 

[KHUFU]

those without a squat rack, how are you working on your legs?

Forward lunges, reverse lunges. Stiff legged deadlifts, standing calf raises.

 

[GreenNGold89]

Bulgarian split squats.

i don't have anything and i've been doing lots of variations of squats and lunges carrying the 40 pack of costco water
also been filling a backpack up with water bottles and doing the stairs in my apartment building
also found an isolated hill and been doing hiit routines up the hill

im struggling right now. i have to do a **** load of reps but im making it work

 

[friscostylez]

Bulgarian split squats.

one of the most underrated exercises IMO

i think Good Mornings, GHR, and Bulgarian split squats would be the top 3 underrated exercise for legs.

pain

next morning or the day after soreness (sometimes i get a delayed soreness from these)

 

[Beruseruku Desu]

I do Bulgarian split squat after my low bar squats. Ish kills the quads

mine of the reviews says it wobbles side to side. Not sure if I would want that

yea i saw that, but the other 2 dont mention that could be the type of floor or how he connected

 

[mplsdunk]

That’s too much for that imo. They’re all gonna wobble a bit but my rack like that was 250.

 

[tdogg2k]

there aren't any anywhere for that cheap

How do you like it? I had to cancel my t2 rack cause I would have hit my head unracking the top crossmember for squats since I'm 6 foot. Does it feel safe unracking and racking squats and bench? Also did you bolt it down?

def feels safe. It has a weight capacity of 1000lbs. Most I’ve put in there was 410 and it felt fine
I don’t have it bolted down

you can pre order and it looks like it ships within the month. You’ve gone this long... I’d just wait vs overpay at this point. 250 bucks is a barbell.

Can’t order until April 27th. Just hope they announce everything is back in stock then and I’m finally placing an order.

Try staggered/B-stance squats with a narrow stance and it will blast your quads even more, given the shorter stride.

These things smash my quads.

 

[GreenNGold89]

Jump roping is a great workout.

With all the heavy panting, breathing, coughing in a confined area and air circulation, seems like that's where you should wear it in the midst of a pandemic. Plus it wouldn't be the first i've seen a mask in a gym.

I’m just not going to go to the gym during a pandemic. It’s not that serious to me. I can stay home.
