I found that when I plataued, switching it up for a little while (smaller muscles first) helped me break through it. Try both, but generally compound stuff first.

Yeah, That's so un-hardcore. :cool:

Can't argue with that! That's a solid post. :rolleyes:

Not quite, I can bench 443224332453265.28lbs :p

I don't understand your first sentence.

As far as what you said, theoretically, I agree with you. But from my experience, I have had better results with high rep pushups and little rest between...

Yeah, seems like a gimmick to me. But hey, if this doesn't work, you could always try that thing that sends electric pulses through your muscles that stimulates muscle growth and fat loss. :rolleyes:...

How long have you been doing this? How has it been working out for you? Your progress is your best answer to whether or not this is good.

No science or logic behind this post, just my experience is that pushups create better growth (and shape) than benchpress has. Other people on this board have had the same experience also. I'm sure...

Not saying you're wrong, but if that were true, wouldn't having big abs then make you look like you have a gut?

I remember hearing something like "abs grow vertically, not horizontally" awhile ago on this board. I don't know if there is any truth to that. Anyone know anyting about that? If this is the case,...

You're a very angry person. You need to just relax a little bit. What I think or say isn't going to change your quality of life or affect you at all.

Are you still a little sour from the deadlift...

So are you going to prove what I said wrong?

LongJumper -

I do the 100m, 200m and run in a 4x1 team.

So you're not going to "kick my ass" huh?

Whew, what a relief.

P.S. You two honestly need to get a life. Get out once in a while (if your mom lets you), get off these boards and stop the tough...

Alright...try this link. There should be a list of the articles I try to link you to before.

P.S. Oldtime, you do know you...

Ok last post here.
You all win. (Except flipexed, he wins the dumbass award)

Yes, it pounds the lower back. I agree with you guys. The isometric tension (I learned that from midian :D) is so great that it outweighs the pressure put on your legs making this a killer lower back...

What question did I side step?

So you guys are using the contraction of the lower back muscles to create the movement of the deadlift?

I never said it didn't work lower back. PLEASE point me to where I said that?

I agree with you, it does work the lower back. Period. I am not arguing that it doesn't.

Why does everyone insist...

That was a direct copy and paste of what I asked earlier. Still, no one has answered it. Instead, they cuss me out and same I don't know anything etc. In the mean time, my view of this situation has...
