To actually FOCUS on keeping your abs tight is much different than supporting your back and keeping good form on big lifts like squat, deadlift, bench, etc. Your abs will work on the OWN to support your spine, that's what they're there for. There is no way in hell you can do a lunge, squat, deadlift, bench press, or heck…

Hey I wear toe shoes too!! They will probably have showers there. I would change into your gym clothes, go to the gym, workout, then shower if you have to. If they don't have showers there, just make sure you shower before you go, and take a towel to wipe off when you are done, throw on some more deodorant, change, and get…

No one can tell you what weight range you are in except for you :) Pick a weight that you can train to failure with, but one you still feel the exercise. You might be able to huck a big ol 60 lb dumbbell around for 10 reps, but if you aren't hitting the right muscle it's doing ya no good lol. Here is a GREAT video on row…

Honestly, don't focus on tightening your abs when doing other movements, just focus on the muscle that you are training and the abs will do their own work. Trust me your abs are being worked even if you don't focus on them. I would only focus on your abs when doing abs specific movements like crunches, leg raises, etc

Yes. Use that day to go do something productive outside of the gym :) How many sets are you doing for your biceps? The beauty of combining back and biceps together is that your biceps will be in most of your back exercises (pull ups, rows, etc) My back and bi workout looks like this 4 sets reverse grip pull downs (palms…

You should focus on squeezing your shoulder blade. Pretend someone has a hook in your shoulder and they are pulling on it, kinda like squeezing your shoulders together. Keeping your elbow stationary, not bending at the joint will remove your bicep from the movement.

Why does that guy think they a 4 day split can only be effective if you are on steroids? The point of hitting each group once a week and letting it rest is to get the most amount of muscle damage and repair in the shortest amount of time. If you do a full body workout 3 or 4 times a week your body won't recover between…

Don't do full body workouts!!! You need to let your body rest and recover. A 3 or 4 day split is pretty common and effective way to hit every muscle group and at the same time getting optimal rest. My split looks like this Tue: Chest + Triceps + Abs Thurs: Back + Biceps Friday: Legs Sunday: Shoulders + Abs If you have…

Form should always be before weight. For me, even though I am a guy, it's the same for the ladies. Lifting heavy would be whatever weight puts you in a 2-6 rep range to FAILURE!!! Where you can't get another rep, that's lifting heavy. My normal working weight rep range is 8-12, again going to FAILURE. Do be afraid to lift…
