Strength Training Everyone who has interacted with me for more than a few minutes on here knows that I am a huge advocate of strength training, for both men and women alike. While there is a large push for women to strength train lately thanks to programs like Crossfit, Stronglifts, New Rules of Lifting for Women etc,…
(God I forgot MFP censors my foul mouth) Hey everyone and welcome to the group! I'm going to try and be active on here since I have been banned from the forums for FOREVER, and normally I don't bother with groups. I do find that I often post large walls of texts to my profile when probably a group or a blog with…
Hey folks, I've posted these often throughout my wall so I felt I should consolidate things that I consider useful into one thread. If you have any suggestions for something I should add, feel free to reply to this thread and I will add it to the list: http://4chanfit.wikia.com/wiki/Harsh's_Worksheet_(WIP) The above is one…
But please read the stickies first!
For anyone that missed me, I'm back with a new, un-banned account and longer hair. I probably should have made other admins for this group but oh well. Feel free to friend me!

Stronglifts is a popular lifting routine on this site, very popular. Why is it so popular (aside from being heavily and obnoxiously advertised by a silly Belgian) over something like Starting Strength? Because it's simple, and it doesn't ask you to do Power Cleans. Power Cleans are scary! They do those in the Olympics!…
http://startingstrength.com/articles/active_hip_2_rippetoe.pdf Good read from Mark Rippetoe, as usual gets very technical but is one of the more solid breakdowns into understanding squat depth and mobility I have seen.

I found this Youtube channel of a guy demonstrating most of the major lifts from both Starting Strength and Stronglifts. These showcase both proper form and common mistakes from multiple angles. Make sure you read the description as he will do one good rep, followed by a bad to show the difference:…
