Maybe one day just tell him hey get up, we're going to the store and ride your bikes there. Then the next just tell him to get up we're going to the gym. Being a bit forceful in this situation doesn't hurt. I was once like your son. I ended up weighting 230Ibs in my sophomore year. I'm trying to get down to 180 but it'll take some time. My parents never really forced me to work out so I never really did.

very good backworkout, everyyhing keeps moving up nicely... saw a goood deadlift 600, if that doesnt motivate someone i dont know what will

[benmayro]

hexbar deadlufting was a little weird after doing straightbar but it helped me alot, good idea

[benmayro]

ugggg, i dont know if i want to end my chest workout with a dropset, floor presses or what i just learn of speed negative

Tjwoody, he needs to want to go, something needs to motivate him. My wifes little brother is a junior on the football team and I can't keep him from coming to the gym with me. He always ask how do I get big like you. Easy....steroids but not till your older. Anyways he needs motivation. Give him the right push and he'll be alright

yesterday chest workout was a nice one. it was packed so it was a struggle for everything it get to it. i did extra heavey close grip chain bench, boy arnt i feeling it

[benmayro]

back and bis was a good one, everything is moving up with either reps or weights. nothing feels better than that,

[benmayro]

reallly hit the deads today at 445 my grip failed me but im not gunnna complain. in there for an hour, a little short than normal but im not gunnna decline an offer to go out on the lake. im gunna start p90x yoga because it makes me feel good and i enjoy it. a little more info is that i fixed my form a little on my bench with the arch, it is a little awkard now but i believe it will help alot especially when i get use to it

[benmayro]

thee gym was emptyy so i had free roam. bench is going up and my form is improving, it seem like everything is shooting up. football is coming soon and i cant wait

[tjwoody]

yes, he wants to go just working to afford it right now. I am making him a deal, if I get him to gym I need 3 days per week and one day I want us to do some outdoor stuff be it biking, sprints, etc.

Sounds like hip mobility issues.. Jumping onto things is ok.. But adding weight to that.. And doing it with the bb on your back from a full squat will increase your power exponentially!! Start light.. Just the bar even. NEVER be afraid to learn from and go light. Humor me and yourself and try them again !

Is that not the log we r currently in? Lol

[benmayro]

okay i will try them next legs day. my ups have improvred greatly throughout the course of this off season, is my sig showing up as a sig or like another peice of text, this app is great but it got some quirks

I played football in Junior High and High school but our couches did not make it mandatory to do Gym Workouts, none the less I was a Mike for 1 season (Central Line Backer) and had the best time of my life playing it even though I never trained before and this was down in mexico haha, but hey! I'm up to support a fellow Football dude and Fellow avenger!!
