Of course but gerneralised comments isnt an accurate portrayal.
My point is that i know a lot of personal trainers that know a lot more about deadlifting than the average person.. and that i know there are bad ones but i believe the good trainers far outweigh the bad non educated trainers.Last edited by Ironlife; 03-12-2010 at 05:52 PM.

is it just the trainers at my gym or do your guys trainers make their customers do 'stranger' exercises to try and fool them and persuade them into keep coming back?
Like this thread for example: they could be doing squats, deads, bench, rows, pull ups, and OH presses, but instead i see trainers instructing them to walk around pulling a object, throwing a ball up in the air letting it hit the ground and repeat, and other abnormal exercises.Journal:

I don't know about the trainers in the US and Australia, but most of the trainers (I'd say 95%) I've spoken to here, are full of sh*t. They don't know how to help a client gain muscle or lose fat. All of their clients, look the same way they did, years ago. When I was talking to one of them on Friday, I was surprised he didn't know what the brachioradialis was. He called it the 'brachialis', when I pointed to the muscle, lol.

lolz
When I was doing DB snatches, one of the PTs came up to me and asked me why I was doing the movement 'so fast'. I told him that this is an Olympic lift and that all Olympic lifts are done explosively. Apparently, the PT thought I was training delts and began to show me 'proper form', with a 20 lb dumbbell. He did a reverse DB curl first, then raised his elbow and then did a one arm shoulder press, lol.
I just smiled and left the area.

Its rather amusing how just because their shirt reads "personal trainer" they can never be wrong in anything fitness related. I got into a fight (verbal) with a trainer because he told me when i bench im not suppose to ever touch my chest. My flexibility is perfectly fine and touching my chest will not hurt me in anyway as long as i do it properly. Some of these guys/girls make me rage. Ive seen quite a few obese trainers as well. That always kinda seemed like a oxymoron in my mind. Your career is revolved around fitness and your out of shape? Maybe im missing a piece of the puzzle here.

Completley agree with this. Always structured my routine around these lifts.
I like that this post supports the fact that for upper back you need to do some variation of heavy rows and pullups.

What do you think about doing all these exercises every other day incorporated with cardio and ab training.

if you replace a barbell benchpress with a dumbbell press instead, it will have the same result. right?

I like it dude. You got all the big ones down and i'm happy you started with squats (as they are the single greatest exercise ever).

When you do the DB bench you get more pec activation and more stabilizer muscles come into play because you have to control two separate (heavy) weights that can turn on you easily. You hit your pecs more directly because you give have a much greater range of motion with DB benchhttp://www.Metaltraining.com

Hey guys, I've just started bodybuilding around 2 months ago and know how fundamental the deadlift is, and the technique. I'd really appreciate it if anyone could give me any feedback on my technique, cos I wanna be more confident in my movement before I add weights.

(its on daily motion cos i couldn't upload to youtube for some reason)
Thanks alot, definitely reps for any comments, even criticism.

Everybody in this thread needs to get Starting Strength by Mark Rippetoe. It will show you form and other tricks/advice on how to perform the lift as efficient and correct possible.
I'm ganna train 3 times a week:
Workout A:
Squats
Bench
Rows
Workout B:
Deadlift
Overhead press
Pull ups
progressive pyramid loading on these exercises (Hypertrophy & Strength).
I also implemented a crossfit/circuit training day for conditioning and fat loss.
should be pretty sick.
