Alright so a little info. i’m an 18 year old male 150 pounds. and i’ve been working out for a year and like 3 months but November 2020 i got in a motorcycle crash and lost like all my gains so after that i basically restarted back to where i was when i first started. So now it’s going good i’m...

Would kettlebell swings be a good movement at the end of a lower body day on an upper/lower split for supersetting as an ab movement with calves? I've been doing ab rollouts with an ab wheel on those days, but thought of maybe adding kettlebell swings instead as a finisher, or would it be too...

Does the hinged "fulcrum" of a T-Bar row result in any significant difference of stimulus than a normal Pendlay row? The only immediate thing that comes to mind is that a barbell row is going to stress the whole posterior chain more since you have to maintain a static hold to anchor the weight....

Last fall, a few of us took part in a competition/collaborative effort where we uploaded our lifts and challenged each other to greater progress. It was fun, and to the best of my knowledge all of us made improvements. My squat is finally out of pathetic territory but still needs a lot of work...

Like a lot of people, I'm stuck at home trying to make what little equipment I have work. Looking online for good leg workouts, it seems like most routines are full of redundant exercises. 3 sets of squats, then 3 sets of lunges, then 3 sets of one legged squats, etc. Seems like they're all...

Hi all I have a pair of Adidas powerlift 2.0 shoes (with the raised heels) I was wondering what exercises I could use them for? Squats - I know they are great Deadlifts But what else?? Can you use them for leg press? Please comment what exercises are best to use them for. That would...

Hi guys, I need to know which is the best android application (Free) for six packs exercise. I cannot afford gym because of my profession as I don't have time. I can do exercise at home. I have gone through many applications, but could not get the results. Can you guys please suggest me. Those...

I have 2 back days, both include lat pulldowns, both wth different grips. I usually do my lat pulldown before my rows, should rows come before pulldowns? Or one day rows before pulldown and pulldown before row?

My friend is having a hard time activating her glutes while doing barbell hip thrusts. As we've increased the weight, it feels like her other muscles are taking over and so we've lowered the weight. We've investigated this problem via articles and videos, but I was wondering if I could get any...

My traps are overdeveloped compared to the rest of my shoulders and back muscles, and because of this I have a really bad habit of shrugging during exercises like cable rows and face pulls. Can I get some help or cues on keeping my shoulder blades relaxed during these lifts?

I use a flat bench with dumbells because it's the only equipment I have access to right now. When I do bench presses though I feel it way more in my triceps than my chest.

I broke a belt on a piece of equipment and I want to fix it. It looks like a car serpentine belt. I have a picture of it but it will not let me post it. It’s about an inch wide and really hard. It is folded over and bolted down to the equipment.

Hey, i need help with this. I train fullbody training 3x per week. I cant do pull-ups because elbow injury long time ago and only movement that is painless for me is chin-up, so i do 2x per week chin-ups instead of pull-ups. I know its mainly back exercise, but i red some articles and some says...

My right bicep is the only thing I just can’t focus and get a contraction on. I never really developed that connection early on. I suspect using mixed grip DL’s at that point have something to do with it, considering I can contract my right tricep way better than my left while my left arm is bicep...
