I would disagree, to me it's impressive to see someone who is 150 or so pull 350. More so than watching someone who weighs 220 do the same weight.

What does it do?

Bump, sorry.

I've posted about this before and you can read the symptoms here:

For your Pendlay rows I was going to suggest that, it's difficult because you're using 25s (Or that's what it looked like), it's difficult not to round your back if you're lowering it to the ground....

I've heard people before complain of knee problems with them, similar to the way people complain about skullcrushers hurting their elbows.

Dip belt, it's sweeping the nation.

Slump was a poor choice of words, when you bring weights in front of you like that, your shoulders will come forward.

Is your upper back lurching forward and rounding due to this?

You sure about that? I thought the same way too until I played around with positioning like that one day. It's a bit more natural to keep them in the front of your body, but you keep your shoulders...

I have the same problem, I'm always jealous of people who get solid muscle definition above their elbows--although it seems like a quirky place to nit-pick about. Mine is close to my shoulder, and...

I never thought about it in that light, that's really depressing.

When I started off I kept my wrists bent a lot, it didn't really hurt--although I can imagine injury occurring with heavier weight than I was dicking around with--but straightening them is safer and...

Same. If I can get it two to three inches off the ground, the rest I don't seem to have trouble with.

Thanks for the quality responses all.

Last time I had to sit-up and hammer curl the damn things onto my lap. I thought about doing pull overs, like Canadas suggested but I could only do that with one. If there's no safe way to do it I'll...

Tomorrow morning I'm working out alone--since no one is around at 6 AM. I was wondering if anyone had advice for how to position dumbbells for decline press. Last week I did it with 50s, which was...

If you're worried about the width of your obliques, you should probably layoff the side bends. In terms of their thickness from front to back I'm not sure.

That's how I hold it because I'm still not flexible enough yet to hold it in a cleaned position, you just need to be careful about balance.



Yeah, don't hold it in a curl position, that's just...
