I try to get in 2-3 days of lifting around 20-30 minutes at a time, then 1-3 days of cardio for 10-20 minutes at a time.

Awesome. Good work.

I need to kickstart my training again, so here is a little punishment for being lazy lately. Back squat 275lb for 12, front squat 225lb for 10. https://www.instagram.com/p/BNE3sHGjB9E/?taken-by=jondrees&hl=en

Good question. Your percentages should be pretty close to week 1. Obviously, if you can reach the target number of reps and feel like you can do more, you should add weight to the exercise.

Hey guys. I've had quite a few people take advantage of this offer, but haven't heard any feedback yet. I'd love to hear from some of you - good or bad.

For most people, pull ups reinforce poor posture. I would stick with horizontal pulling motions for now.

Much better. You could still do a better job of pulling your scapulas back. Notice how your elbows tilt forward at the bottom? Think of your shoulders going back and down towards your butt.

Structurally you're fine. You aren't retracting your scapulas. Instead, they are elevating, giving you a rounded upper back appearance.

No. You should be able to touch your nose to the ground without your hips or chest touching - that would be perfect alignment.

It can be a good supplemental form of exercise, but I wouldn't recommend it for your only source. 2-3 days of OTF and 2-3 of resistance training would be good.

Pick your butt up and tuck your chin in. Think about your chest being the first thing down and the last thing up. Your back isn't excessively rounded, so you should have no problem getting into the proper positions.

It's not terrible. It would be good to see you at a higher percentage of your max - like 75%+ 1. The bar is too far from your shins 2. Your weight is on your toes 3. The bar path is not vertical 4. Too much knee bend Basically, everything is a result of a poor set up. When standing straight up, the bar should only be 2-4…

Post a video of you deadlifting.

;)

It's unlikely that flexibility is preventing you from squatting all the way down. Try switching to a front squat or goblet squat.

The idea is that the Mg absorbs better through the skin than taken orally. Not sure if there are studies to back this up or not. If nothing else, the warm water feels good.

Not bad for a tripod and a 5 second timer.

The best thing to do is just work through it - it'll get better. Wraps and gloves will hinder your progress eventually.

Perform better is what I use at my gym.

chances are if you are hitting that depth, you are also rounding your back and letting your knees cave in. You're probably best at or slight below parallel. Keep in mind the lady in the picture is wearing shoes with a heel lift and probably has 10+ years of training.
