I don't know much about nutrition, but I know it's a good idea to bulk clean. I'm also not much of a cook, and I rather go the quick and easy route with food, so with that said, what do you guys...

When someone holds you at gun point and tells you to do only one exercise.

you mean DB (dumbbell)?

In theory, it's good. But the drawback are it's painful and time consuming. And to add stretches to the mix, that's even more time. Supposedly muscles get tight and and so does this web like organ...

kneeling hip flexor stretch http://www.exrx.net/Stretches/HipFlexors/KneelingHipFlexor.html

It makes me cry every time I do it because of how excruciating the pain is :( I can't even do it to my IT Bands it would make me pass out.

Thanks a lot guys for clearing this up for me. I repped you all

This is kind of a small rant, but since such flexibilities are so common, wouldn't it be potentially dangerous to start squatting...

for most other exercises it seems theres a pretty intuitive reason why certain inflexibilities would affect it. My only guess is that maybe the anterior pelvic tilt blocks the femur from reaching...

I think I understand how it pulls your pelvis forward now, but how exactly does that affect how low you can go with squat?

That can also be due to tight hamstrings, quads, shins, glutes, calves, not going long enough doesn't necessarily mean tight hip flexors right?

1. How do I tell if my hip flexors are tight/inflexible?

2. How do tight hip flexors prevent me from squatting deep?

3. How do tight hip flexors cause anterior pelvic tilt?

I thought the...

Must spread some reps before giving it to you again!! I owe you.

second pic, based on your right hand (on left side of picture), you have a pretty big frame (big wrists), so I'm sure it's not overdeveloping. It's probably normal size for your frame. I'm sure your...

GOD IT HURTS SO BAD!!!

i have tight quads, and shins, and IT band. When I do myofascial release, it's like trying to pop a huge zit on your upper lip right under your nose. The pain is so...

Ideally doing GHRs would help with both motions of the hamstrings (hip extension, and leg flexion), but I can't even do 1 rep of GHR (glute ham raise). Who here's on the same boat?

i could only do 60 lbs on lying leg curl. I doubt I could do a single glute ham raise.

i'm trying to get stronger hamstrings.

In my experience, certain exercises require more flexibility than others. Usually the compound exercises like squats, overhead squats, etc.

For hamstrings, it feels that bigger stiff legged dead...

Among all the exercises, which would you recommend to an out of shape beginner?
