Bodybuilding and Training with Weights | Forum profile

I think for most purposes training the abs everyday is not really optimal. Planks and ab rollouts (with a wheel or stability ball) are some of the most functional exercises for core strength so you could focus on them. Other good core strengthening exercises are glute bridges (can be done on a stability ball as well) and bird dogs.

I haven't heard of one, but I think using a length of chain and a carabiner with some towel or foam padding around your ankle would get the job done. You could also invest in some heavy duty jump stretch/iron woody or equivalent bands.

hey tricky question and thats why i think no one dared to answer personally i would leave the suggestions about the shoulder rehab and work to someone who knows your injury, a physio etc. but in general, perhaps better not to think about tricep or bicep work and so on, but perhaps use bigger compound movements to build your overall strength. Many strength trainers never ...

> what did you decide on?

not sure if this is what you are getting at but i think sledgehammer is best done for conditioning rather than gaining mass. I wouldn't use a hammer that's too heavy. tbh it looks like a great way to fuck your shoulder up, imo

man, some of those certificates and qualifications are really worth nothing. One can get them from couple weeks of training - maybe even remotely! Erske is a kick ass nutritionist, but still get doubters I guess qualifications like that dont silence the critics if they have their mind made up.
