I'm building a home gym Started with a deal on craig's list for 300 for a marcy squat/bench/lat station 300 lbs of steel and an Olympic barbell and ez-curl bar. I'm quickly outgrowing it. The bar is some sort of fitness authority trash, chrome is chipping so I'm ordering a rogue bar and 160...

How is an eBook out of stock? 5/3/1 second edition

Ive had people tap just from being crossfaced when I had side control... so yeah being strong can make life miserable for your opponent sometimes.

I'm using Kroc rows because I need to work on a muscular imbalance. I injured my left shoulder/upper back about a year ago, and doing BB rows lets my right side compensate. Also, after playing around with adding rows and more pullups for the last 2 weeks, I find my shoulder feels a lot better...

When progressing on Kroc Rows, should I A) use a weight I can hit for close to 30 reps and increase the weight by 5lbs once I hit 30 consistantly B) Use a weight I can hit about 18-22 reps with in one set, and then finish out to 30 with however long it takes, and keep with this weight til i...

Ugh, I'm having an epic embed fail...

Sorry for poor quality vids, only have 30s windows with my cellphone, did the best I could. @115lbs I seperated a rib and messed up my left shoulder about a year ago in august. I restarted with SS doing the Practical Programing varient, with the addition of kroc rows on Monday and Friday...

Leglocks.

They have sleds made for toddlers with a backrest on them, get one of those. Can easily hold 35lb standard plates up to 4 high. Or just grab sandbags like people throw in their truck bed.

Find a hill, get a plastic sled, load that with weights, and then run uphill dragging the sled. Prepare to wish for death now, because that is what you will feel like. The incline will more than compensate for the reduced friction of the snow, plus it is like doing a hill sprint and a sled pull...

@CoreCanyon, do you have contact information for your friend? I'd like to have my brother ask him about proper blood glucose management for weightlifting, as apparently I found out yesterday that my brother has been into the 300's a few times in the last few weeks.

Yeah, maybe i should have asked this in the nutrition forum.

My brother has asked me to show him how to lift weights... I am currently on starting strength myself (I have both that book and Practical Programing). He is 18, 6'1'' and about 280lbs. Never lifted before in his life. He is also a type 1 diabetic. I was just wondering if there were anybody...

I was a puss and "afraid" of the powerclean to start as well. I didnt try one til 5 weeks into SS, now it is by far my favorite exercise. Nothing is as satisfying of the sound of your feet hitting the ground and the plates rattling when you hit the rack. And feeling that heavy weight explode upward.

In highschool our best XC runner got stress fractures through over training, he successfully rehabed and kept cardio up by swimming.

Nice way to celebrate, TBH i was checking out the kettlebell girlie, and noticing that Ipod guy didnt take his watch off and is lifting...

Thankfully as long as I'm still making gains in strength I'll be satisfied. As my lifting is mainly just for the sake of being strong and to compliment my grappling game rather than to obtain monumental PR's in each lift. I just wanted to know from people who have been training longer and much...

I'm currently 6 weeks into Starting Strength and making gains as expected. I would like to add in some barbell complexes for conditioning. I saw the July conditioning challenge and thought that routine would be perfect. My current schedule is MWF SS lifts in morning with grappling in the evening...

Thank you guys so much. Shreded what I thought was a plateau and it felt easy. It was all in my form.

Is there a prefered routine to do for grip strength? Kind of like SS/Stronglifts for beginner strength. I have a CoC gripper (Started with trainer, but it is too light so i need to buy a 1) and know about finger curls, wrist curls, plate pinches, farmers walks etc. What I have no clue...
