After a heavy back and bicep day I noticed a bruise appeared on my right bicep. There is no pain, no loss of ROM or strength. I have also torn my left bicep in a bad car accident, so I know exactly...

Oh man, dont get all pissy because your years and years of "research" is complete s#it. It will all be ok. Though perhaps a better use of that time would have been in the gym, but that's neither...

Not sure why people try to make things more complex and complicated then they need to be. Want to lose fat? Eat less and exercise more, that's all. It's really that easy. Will most people accept...

Depending on the severity of the hernia, recovery time will vary. For me, since mine didnt cause any pain, I let it go waaaay to long and took about 3 months before I could sneeze without pain. If...

Skull crushers, and the associated variations, are notorious for causing elbow problems. Short answer, if it hurts then dont do it. There are so many different types of exercises that doing...

I personally use the classic ones. They were the cheapest, and work well for what I need them for. Have had them for a couple years now and still going strong.

Third on the versa grips. Tried the traditional lifting straps and it always felt weird, like it was pulling on my wrist, who knows. I think versa grips are much easier and much more effective, at...

Back exercises are notoriously hard to establish that mind muscle connection, and pulldowns are probably one of the hardest IMHO. I actually just reintroduced them into my workout, and still feel it...

Definitely sounds like some sort of tendinitis. I seem to get it when I'm doing too much direct bicep work. It's a small muscle and gets hit a lot through other workouts. Like gunslash said, rest...

Keep dreaming boy.

Maybe if you actually spent time in the gym lifting correctly...

The back is the most complex muscle group. You need a variety of exercises to hit all the parts. But if you are looking for the most effective and efficient lift for lats, that would be close-grip...

Fix your typo there big guy

If by helps you mean provide very inaccurate information, then yeah, it helped a lot!

Hope everything will work out. Just try not to rush it, I know easier said then done. I used to actually really like db pullovers, till I strained my rhomboid. So that exercise moves into the...

That could be part of the problem. I've always had problems feeling it in the chest. It wasnt till I really stopped and focused on the form more than anything. So I would be lifting 1/2 the weight...

Who cares what someone else is doing. Unless you are in direct competition ( ie powerlifting) then it really doesn't matter. You probably don't have any idea what their training history is like,...

Let common sense prevail here. If it hurts, then stay away from it. Could try some other alternatives like peck deck or stand cable cross-overs. But if those cause pain as well, then avoid also. ...

What I have found for producing the most bang-for-your buck:

1) Front Squats. A little awkward at first, but after a few times no long the case. Greater depth is easily accomplished (vs back...
