    Another split question

    5/3/1 and many of its variations. it is 4 days a week and allows you to hit things about twice a week.

    Alternating low and high rep ranges.

    sciences states that the reps dont matter as much the effort put in to the last rep. so whether you are doing 5, 10, 15, or 19 reps, just be sure to push till muscle failure for the set. rinse, and repeat. this is how some people seem to gain on one rep range while others gain on other rep...

    Conan phillipi deadlift program

    Did it. Added 44lbs to my deads. I also hardly did all the accessory work. I even failed some reps in the middle weeks A guy I train with used it to take his deads from the mid 600s to the mid 700s with a few cycles of it. It's brutal. Don't look for more than a 10% gain each time. I would...

    High reps for size?

    You are not an ectomorph, you are underfed. If you are not gaining you are not eating enough. Also, many college coaches prove that you can still get stronger and bigger on a diet of kool-aid and Ramen noodles, as long as you train hard, train long, and sleep hard and long. Can you post your...

    Best way to make money as a Personal Trainer

    Thank you for proving my point. I did not use exacting words like only, I used rarely and mostly. That means that it is NOT the only way. You may have like it or agreed but my other point still stands as true. You need to run yourself as a business or be part of a business that will support...

    Best way to make money as a Personal Trainer

    great example of reading what you want to read and now what was written. many trainers, good and bad, fail cause they don't know how to sell themselves. most work independently so this is a missing critical component. it is like they are their own company. very few trainers have the backing of...

    Which work out?? Advice, opinions!!!!

    That would be second edition. The north of vag is great for conditioning. I think that is the book that has a higher frequency version as well. It's rare IMO when people need more than 4 days a week so don't worry about that one. It may also have the pyramid version which is good for more...

    Which work out?? Advice, opinions!!!!

    Do the original 5/3/1 from the second edition book, which you should get to answer any and all questions. I'm guessing the version or variation you as about is the accessory work. That is up to you. Do the one that works your weak links and alspn the one you most believe in. As long as the...

    Best way to make money as a Personal Trainer

    one thing i learned training people for many years, there are successful trainers and used to be trainers. rarely does a great trainer make it as a trainer. most of the trainers make it by being salesman not good trainers.

    Nike Romaleos 2

    and what does that have to do with my response? you can still find the size you need by getting fit properly in to other shoes. you can then get the proper fit by reviewing if the shoes run short, long, wide, narrow. basically what i already posted. unless I'm missing something else......

    Nike Romaleos 2

    I used to manage a specialty running store. The Nike narrow fit is a myth from the 80's. And athletic shoes have a different scale than dead shoes. So if you are wearing the same number on dress and athletic then I guarantee one of them is the wrong size. The difference between the scales is...
