    If you can't do battle ropes, a weighted jump rope would be a good alternative.
  • Poll: Even a highly athletic female is only about as...

    Even a highly athletic female is only about as good as a freshman boy in high school. Yes, she is trained, but it is no different than me fighting a highly trained 12 year old boy. I have in fact...

    Your numbers will probably still work the way you use them, so long as you can fuel your activity. I would experiment adding a little bit of energy pre/post workout; that is the main area I am...

    Good substitutions for the scoop throw would be swings or snatches done with a kettlebell (or dumbbell). The medicine ball chest pass could be replaced with a plyometric form of a push-up, performed...

    Day 2 is designed with "straight" sets, meaning you complete all of the sets of a movement before going to the next exercise. There is nothing wrong with performing this in a circuit, however since...

    This is a great question. Medicine balls are useful because you don't have to decelerate the weight. In this case, I would substitute a dumbbell or kettlebell snatch for the scoop throw.

    Truly, this question should be answered by a qualified physician or physical therapist, though I will attempt to help you as I can. The scoop throw uses triple extension (the jumping motion) with...

    OK, so this guy obviously is jacked up with like 100 things wrong with his story and his uniform. The very first thing my wife noticed (she doesn't really know uniforms) was that the guy was...

    That would be an interesting project. I have the pendlay already, so maybe I can get a rogue. I also am equipped for load testing and a few toys to take some measurements. It might be neat to measure...

    715 @ 242. my tip: improve bar speed. I tracked frame by frame acceleration and velocity, saw where exactly I was losing speed, and improved there and off the floor. Deadlift exploded.

    Exactly this. I love my 12. My wife does not. A 20 is just right and still packs an incredible punch.

    Volume is relative to intensity. I've been training and competing for well over a decade now and prefer full body training, though I don't do it year round. Look at it this way: With a typical...

    Yeah. My wife had a "stomach" problem with a lot of pain. I thought her appendix may have burst, and so did our doc in the box. ER trip, pain killers, and a scan that revealed nothing was wrong, and...

    I picked him up from the airport once, and as he came lumbering through the gate around all of these little people, the first thing I said to him was "I thought you'd be bigger."
