What on earth. I'm surprised -- why squats? I have too much thighs, I don't want more thighs. I have too much glutes, I don't want more glutes. Someone explain?

Thanks for the reply. One point -- not a newbie at all. Have been sport-specific weight-training for 20+ years.

Ah well, maybe I'll find solutions elsewhere. Or just admit that I have to run....

I'd recommend you check http://www.bmi-calculator.net/ and try the BMR calculator to find your Basal Metabolic Rate. Fudge it, because (as we know) height age weight aren't accurate for fit people...

Well, the thread title just about says it all.

Simple story: help me lose weight (and maybe gain upper-body muscle mass?) with minimal use of leg muscles, while never entering a swimming pool.

Agreed about American football professionals. Some of the dudes I see on TV (don't know their names) are built like rocks. Eddie George I think is one.

My only complaint about Amn Football is that...

This is one thing I have trouble with. I'm from New Orleans, and I'm a dedicated foodie. I appreciate, even to the degree of writing restaurant reviews, nouveau cuisine and chef's creations. I'm not...

Grill meat.

Really, that's all there is to it for me. Get a wok or a wide non-stick skillet. Get nice-looking pork flank steak, pork butterfly chops, chicken breasts, salmon or tuna fillets. Get...

I've heard that your sweat-response (so to speak) is partly genetic, partly determined by your adolescent experiences. Me, I was playing soccer in August in Tampa, so I sweat lots.

But my sweat...

Yeah, I'd have to agree, the "best overall" is probably the clean AND press, not merely because that's actually about six exercises all rolled into one. Mine is suggested as the "missing ingredient"...

Indeed.

Any body-builder needs to see the National Geographic documentary "Warrior Island." It's an anthropological foray into one of the last (almost) untouched hunter-gatherer societies left on...

I found an amazing adjustable bench at WalMart for about $50. It's by Danskin, and will do (near) upright, incline, and flat. Very sturdy.

Plus, you left out they need A FLOOR MAT for abs. I know,...

(Said in strong Mancunian accent by the best coach I ever had. He really understood how to motivate without being bullishly moronic; and how the warped minds of adolescent boys actually worked. And,...

Heh, that title-line is a teaser (and probably flame-bait, too) but I genuinely think this is true.

The best single exercise for "sport-specific" training that I've ever found, in twenty years...

Funny, I always found that when I was LEAST involved with my life, work, and goals, was the only period of time in my life when I could hit the gym. Otherwise I didn't have time for it, except when I...

Scared? Flash before eyes? Do explain ...

I'm new here and thought I'd say hello. I hope it's deemed appropriate at these forums, for me to go ahead and start my own thread. I look forward to getting to know y'all.

I'm 40 and starting...
