    Hi
    Saunas can help with restoration if used in conjunction with a cold treatment (contrast method). Try this, sit in a sauna for 15 mins (or as long as you can take) then immediately go to a plunge...

    Hello Again
    I train using the westside template, it is the best system I've used over the years. I also think that it would work well for a rugby player. If you're interested and unfamiliar with the...

    Thank God for some common sense, when is the inner/outer chest myth going to die? Probably around the same time that the biceps peaking myth does.

    Hi Kingcarlos
    Full body workouts are great BUT over 4 years your coach should probably have changed things up a bit; frequency can be periodised as well!

    Hi Guys
    Definition of a warm up is to prepare the body for the activities to come.

    If your first work set feels worse than your second or third then you haven't warmed up enough. It's very...

    Hi Oldtime
    This is what I do, and it holds green jump stretch bands easily. Choke the bands around 1,2,or 3 20kg plates! Easy. Granted I'm only 5'6 but it feels really solid.

    Hi Guys
    I don't normally post when the answer to a question has already been given. IMO smith machines are junk! But in this case I will say that you are probably going lower in the squat because...

    They are not retarted! If you can do a press behind the neck without going into neck flexion then you'll be fine. It's not better of worse than any other press, as with any new exercise do it for a...

    Hi Burks
    I think that you're probably arching in the bottom position of sit ups, a sit up should be performed in a rolling/ unrolling style; rather like a carpet being rolled up and unrolled.

    Try pushing your head back into the bar and make sure that your shoulder blades are retracted.

    Buy a power rack with a pull up bar, then you can do hanging leg raises/pikes after your squats and deadlifts.
