    HOW TO BUILD ATROPHIED MUSCLE FAST

    She's finally on a roll with training. She bikes a lot and her weight training is very modified. The key for her is to not overly fatigue herself.

    HOW TO BUILD ATROPHIED MUSCLE FAST

    My wife suffers from fibromyalgia and has had set backs and road blocks nearly every time she tried to return to her old form. She even wrecked a foot from a power walking program. You really need to find a professional who can guide you and the patience to use baby steps no matter how...

    Anyone ever decide to stop getting stronger?

    I just made a 50lb sand bag (play sand comes packaged in the perfect rounded block shape that just needs to be duck taped) and when I add the weight of water it's at the very limit of what I can tolerate. That might change as I get stronger but I don't want to be at the point where the weight...

    Anyone ever decide to stop getting stronger?

    If the weight is under 45 lbs I'll walk/jog depending on my HR. A park I like has glacier cut hills so I basically jog the flats and walk the hills. This is very demanding so I only do a few miles, maybe up to 5. On the treadmill it's a cushioned ride so I can go a little faster but I still...

    Anyone ever decide to stop getting stronger?

    I'm not trying to contradict you because if you don't like rucking that's fine BUT: my pack is always ready to go, I just throw it in the trunk and drive to the park. Changing the sandbags out is effortless and you can even just walk the treadmill with it. Today me and another guy alternated...

    Anyone ever decide to stop getting stronger?

    I have a borowed Kifaru pack which cost an insane $550- . The set up I'm putting together for my own is a $100- Blackhawk and I too use sand bags. Goruck bags are insanely over priced. There are elititists in everything nowadays but the Cleveland Rucking Crew hasn't been like that yet and the...

    Anyone ever decide to stop getting stronger?

    I'm a member of a club so I don't have to hook up with strangers. We do events together like the "12 and 12" which is 12 miles in less than 3.5 hours with a mandatory beer consumed at each mile. Plus the few I had as a warm up. I got a little sick...

    Anyone ever decide to stop getting stronger?

    At some point in your life your going to go from always trying to get stronger to always trying to hold on to what you have (trust me on this i know). Whenever I let something I was really strong at slide for a long period of time and then tried to get most of that strength back I have found...

    Breaking the 4-minute mile -- a triumph of human will? Or steroids?

    Should be noted that Barrister broke the 4min mile with sub optimal training and now many runners can do it. Also Louis Zamperini was conviced that he could have done it if he hadn't been injured in WWII (at 65 years of age he ran his turn at the Olympic torch in 6 min.

    LISS after HIIT ?

    That's been a rationale with HIIT for years and it's since been shown to be very over stated. Just because the aerobic system is used to some extent in HIIT it's development in the absence of dedicated aerobic work is rather minimal. As far as training both concurrently there's so much debate...

    LISS after HIIT ?

    As far as runners I believe the thought is that aerobic conditioning is best worked almost exclusively because once you're in season the anaerobic work stops aerobic gains. The same for interval day, once the anaerobic work is done there is no way any aerobic work is going to have a training...

    Soccer players...

    Experiment during the week. Squat on Monday and see how you do with one day rest etc. When I played football games were on Fridays (varsity) and mondays (JV) so I did legs the day after the last game I would play for the week.

    LISS after HIIT ?

    Runners generally follow the belief that intervals that are sufficiently taxing are enough. That anything more than that workout has no training benefit other than prolonging your recovery deficit. With that in mind I'll do little work after a temporary session but that's it. Intervals are a...
