When you intensely train muscle, it grows if overloaded. That INCLUDES abs, obliques, etc. A.C.E. Certified Personal and Group Fitness Trainer IDEA Fitness member Kickboxing Certified Instructor Been in fitness for 35+ years and have studied kinesiology and nutrition

Since I was more into bodybuilding, I really never pushed poundages to 1RM. So I really have no idea because I never really attempted them. But today at 59 I can still box jump 30-36 inches, break dance and run pretty fast (last treadmilll sprint I got up to 12 mph). A.C.E. Certified Personal and Group Fitness Trainer IDEA…

Use wrist straps if you have trouble gripping weights. As for arm balances, try from clenched fist, although that may hurt in the beginning. A.C.E.

It would be BETTER if people ate less. Food is so mass produced that they use a lot of "enhancers" to ensure they meet demand. Lower demand and chances are they may start focusing on better quality.

I work with heart patients all the time after they get clearance for exercise from their cardiologists. Weight gain is a matter of overeating too many calories. The first and foremost way to address this is to look at your diet and calorie intake vs how many actual calories you burn in a day. A.C.E. Certified Personal and…

I eat at night all the time. To offset it, I don't eat in the morning. I eat till about 10:30pm most nights (carbing up for the morning workouts) and then don't eat again till after 12pm.
