    That's up to you. If you think you can add 5 lbs and maintain good form then ya go for it. But if you're working on perfecting form, personally I'd focus solely on that, not on the weight you're...

    I've mulled over the idea of the stability ball for a chair, I'm finding really focusing on posture during lifting is helping as well. Strength training should dictate your posture, however it ends...

    For arguments sake you really only need a press and a fly movement to develop your chest. I'm partial to including an incline press as well (just a mental thing for me), but a lot of people will...

    I can't speak too well as to what the problem might be. Best guess would be you strained your glute medius.

    There's a good rule of thumb for weight lifting though. If there's a movement that's...

    There are quite a few things it could be.

    My guess would be a tendon clicking. Could be from form/imbalance or muscle tension/inflammation.
