You know the difference between a power rack and a squat rack? sounds like you do not. I now see where you get your wisdom from though so thnks for helping.

1) maybe you were doing it wrong and someone finally had the balls to tell you that you were ridiculous 2) you are a beast, that's it - but probably spelled differently

Here is someone more well-recognized than me talking about it: http://startingstrength.com/articles/abs_rippetoe.pdf 2010, just after all the other strength coaches were talking about anti-flexion - love Rippetoe it always seems like it was his idea. Look at what rippetoe used to say and now in 2012 look at what strength…

That is true, good form leads to the ability to vary the move - or as you say "feel" - I like that I am going to steal the feel

So, just that jogging conversation annoyed me. because it was an inability to read problem - working out v jogging (jogging rotfl)
-
1) Working out - not jogging 2) Jogging - you need to find something that leaves you breathless and unable to carry out a conversation 3) length of workout has nothing to do with effectiveness 4) Look up Perceived exertion rate - explains the talking bit

Must be the smell of your perfection driving them to you.

Bad form, especially on rear delt and rotator cuff exercises. Gym Day of bad form Machine Chest Press FB DB chest Press - talking IB DB Chest press - talking FB DB Chest Fly - checking out the tits IB DB Chest Fly - perm any two from above Bicep curls. but again never right and too much weight so it becomes a hybrid…

Good stuff. love feedback - probably not the time to tell you about one arm row variants.

Your knees are not bad, you have created a dysfunction from other exercises. Knees are seldom to blame, unless you have smashed them to pieces in an accident. See a functional personal trainer/therapist

You mean people don't do static exercises on one foort when they can, darn beachbody you invent everything --- NOT

Missed your point noob, when will you need greater core strength? When I run into you from the side. Never too strong, ridiculous illogical thing to say, like when do you need to squat 400lbs - pounds not kilos pounds SUPERLOLS - sounds better in pounds

let us see your video - and then a flag with cross on rings.

None of the videos I posted are isolation exercises but really hit the core and other muscle groups. heavy Sagital plane exercises do hit the core, but not as greatly as exercises which have all three elements of movement, which is rather the point of the core. Like one leg squats are much more efficient for creating power…
-
You can replicate SUP with TRX, Cable Machine and instability - but not quite as joyous as being in the ocean or lake.
-
We all live in the sagital plane, sagital plane the sagital plane. But the core moves in three planes - how do you train the other two?
-
Sucking in your gut seems like the right thing to do but it isn't. You need to learn to abdominal brace, and that is almost the opposite of sucking in (or hollowing), but as daft as it seems it is correct. Google the term, you will be pleased to learn the difference and how it helps you to perform better. Also, power…

Sorry, made me laugh. The idea of someone doing crunches who already has a bad back, irony. Yes, you must try anything else BUT CRUNCHES. research core anti-flexion exercises and core anti-rotation this will give you great ideas to improve your back.
-
You should be doing everything else but crunches, useless spine destroying anti-exercise designed to create dysfunctional bodies. Stand on one leg, hold a bag of shopping in the other hand, switch sides. progress to single leg deadlifts Walk with a full heavy as possible suitcase whilst keeping a straight back - switch…

Steady state for hours on end is now not viewed as the way to improve performance or get maximum weight loss. The majority of science backs short very high intensity output placing the heart into anaerobic levels of performance. So, actually the idea is to take a little time but give your cardio system a blow out, rather…

A great resource for absolute beginners who lack confidence or feel they are not fit enough to get fit (I was this, irrational thinking at its finest) then try nowloss.com really great, simple, no equipment needed, fat blasting, cardio working, strength improving workouts. Truly helped me when getting started - especially…

You have been on this site long enough to know that what you are asking is simply not possible, you cannot target an area to lose fat. You have to train the whole body and then you will see inch loss everywhere. I wish there were a magic workout for belly fat but there is not, if someone says there is then they are a…

Cheers supermonty. Really pleased to help.
-
As a slight addition, you actually have not said what your workout involves or how you are doing hiit.
-
Same way you manage anything. A plan each time you go, a specific goal , a desired outcome and a reward for hitting targets. Just going to the gym becomes a reason to not go.
-
Well I have not gone from couch to 5K, because I do not like running do not even like cardio that much. But via enthusiastic use of resistance and HIIT and Tabata my weight has dropped, strength through the roof and V02MaX is rated Elite on the cardio machines, heart rate can now hit 160 and 130 used to leave me feeling…

I had a moose loose about my hoose once, they made episode into a song. Troo Stoory Calves, terrible muscle to target what with all that weight bearing and getting up and sitting down and walking they have to do and the running or the cycling and the standing, most people have the calf about as developed as it will ever…

No, don't do full sit ups or leg raises either - still same destruction of the spine, still leads to thoracic kyphosis and hip flexor issues, not to mention issues with the pelvis, ruptured discs. In fact full sit-ups are worse.

Spine, lumbar, discs, tendons, nerves and then muscle - it is not the muscle that wears it is the rest of the spinal construction. And it behaves exactly like a credit card - bang broken because you caused the body to do exactly the opposite as to its purpose.
