I've asked for and been given permission from a Mod to start this thread. I'm not selling anything, just asking 8 questions.
I originally posted this in the Misc. section but didn't get a single...

Thanks - I'm not selling a thing. Just trying to collect some non-scientific data for my paper.

Admin-

I would like permission to post a list of 10 questions (from a customers perspective) .
The questions will be either multiple choice or yes and no answers.
I'm working on my capstone...

The tricep is made up of 3 individual muscles (long, lateral and medial). The rope, if done correctly hits the long head of the tri's. By pulling the handles apart at the bottom of the movement, you...

To answer the question on the table: Are deadlifts a substitute for rows?

In the strictest of terms, I have to say no. DL's work far more muscles than rows do. It is vital to core body strength....

Pick up any BB mag and look at the pros split routines. Any one of them will make for a great starting place. Then learn from there.

I've never been a fan of 5x5. It is too rigid and doesn't allow...

While you aren't training, eat at your maintenance level and you should be just fine. As was already stated, 3-4 weeks isn't going to make that much of a difference.

Don't fret it coolwtr. You would be amazed how many lifters can't do a pull up. Diet to get the weight down will go a long way to getting you to do that exercise.

Agreed....it is most likely the anterior (front) delts that are tiring. Forget the pushups and do some heavy DB presses and close bench chest presses. They will develop pretty quickly doing heavy...

I do bent over DB raises as heavy as possible. Also tilt the DBs forward (meaning the back should be higher than the front) at the top of the movement. If you do it right, you'll feel them by the 3rd...

Dex had the conditioning in the 08 Mr O to beat out Jay. I believe if Jay can show up in shape, with his added size he can get his 3rd Sandow. If he comes in like last year, Dex will beat him again....

Over training can cause a decrease in test levels. A short duration of ED is nothing to worry about as it could be a host of things. As long as everything returns to normal, I wouldn't worry about...

For those of us old enough to remember these!!!

Long ago and far away, in a land that time forgot,
Before the days of Dylan, or the dawn of Camelot.
There lived a race of innocents, and they...

Not sure about the kickbacks as I use those to warm up with. But doing heavy weighted dips and heavy close grip benchpress IMHO are by far the best mass and strenght builders. Both are good compound...

You don't say how long you have been lifting. And from looking at your other thread, you haven't developed much lean mass yet.
If I were you, I wouldn't worry about cutting. It's the winter time in...

I use both the machine and parallel bars. On days I want to go really heavy, I'll use the dip machine so I can increase the poundage to its maximum to really work the tri's as hard as possible.

As far as I know, it is impossible to dislocate a tendon. You can dislocate a joint, such as a shoulder or finger, but not a tendon. Chances are it is either torn or strained. If it is torn, it will...

**** Jungle Warfare, BAM and Restore is the best stack I have ever tried, bar none!

No offense, but if you are a software engineer and you are making $500 per month?? You may want to make a career move. Or just move to somewhere else. That is way below minimum wage!

325 per week divided by 40 hrs is slightly over $8 an hour. Probably no benefits either. Easy enough to believe. One can make that working at McDonalds.
