    Workout program for size.

    Yes. I recommend all three fiber types being worked. What you need to realize young kid is that there are MULTIPLE forms of growth. There's myofibrillar hypertrophy, which is the thickest form and comes with low reps and there is sarcoplasmic hypertrophy, which is also important for growth and...

    Your everyday routine

    There's nothing at all wrong with showing up for work that early. It sounds like you're good at what you do and you enjoy what you do. I used to show up around 45 minutes early myself, but I ended up getting in trouble over it. I still like to be in the parking lot 30 minutes before my shift...

    Workout program for size.

    My statements covered the ladder. Training each movement two days per week gives plenty of rest and training antagonistically to assure balance. Not sure what your point was in quoting my post but if I wrote something you want to contradict feel free to do so and feel free to back it up. And...

    Workout program for size.

    Workout programs are not what determines size. Size is determined by calories, more than anything. You can have any effective workout program, but if you aren't giving your body enough calories to grow you won't grow, but on the other hand, if you give your body enough calories to grow, then any...

    Front Squat Question

    [/B] I completely agree with what's in bold. More volume usually means an easier break in form especially in front squats. Do you pause at the top and rest 3-5 seconds between each rep or do you go straight up and straight down?

    Front Squat Question

    Your glutes and hamstrings are usually always sore from front squats just depending on the individual. My glutes and hamstrings are sore from time to time. I'm thinking maybe you're using your hips like a back squat or maybe it is a form issue. The only way to really tell would be to post up a...

    Frequency of split workout muscle training

    Resistance training back to back days for an extended period would be hard on your endocrine system. I like training 4 days per week personally.

    Front Squat Question

    It'd be very difficult to turn the front squat into a hamstring focused movement. During the eccentric phase, the hamstrings plays a roll of stabilization, but this is moving with gravity so the hamstrings only lengthen. From a physiology standpoint, back squats are hamstring dominant because...

    Rotator Cuff Questions

    My reply wasn't to call you out or anything, but just to help you and others with shoulder problems. The link rodja posted was spot on. If your Doctor recommended you to stretch the internal rotators, then he is exactly correct. I think you just got them confused. You strengthen the lagging...

    Rotator Cuff Questions

    Exercising strengthening the internal rotators won't help his condition. Very rarely, if ever, has someone needed internal rotation work to keep up with the external rotators. The internal rotators are worked harder when driving, using a computer and during everyday tasks. The external rotators...

    Zombies!?

    Another great combat related MOS is MP. I thought long and hard about being MP since when I graduated high school my goal was to be in law enforcement. You've still got combat engineers, tankers, scouts, etc. There's tons of great MOS' in the Army, and even if later down the line you decide to...

    Zombies!?

    Yeah, recruiters don't always tell you the bad stuff. I remember being in high school. I was "fit" and we had a game that night so I had my football jersey on and was walking down the hall and he saw I guess that I was fit and said "hello sir, let me talk to you a minute about joining the...

    Zombies!?

    I admire your courage. You sound like me when I joined the USMC. I was the first person in my immediate family to be in the military and I avoided scholarships and headed straight to Parris Island. Personally man, combat related MOS' are best left in the hands of single men. That's JMO as back...

    Obama

    If he's in office for another 4 years, then God help us. As a healthcare professional I can tell you Obamacare is not only going to destroy small businesses but will be a death sentence for anyone over the age of 75. Medicaid will no longer pay for dyalisis and other treatments? So not being...

    Zombies!?

    Man don't ever be ashamed of your MOS. The Army is a team, and every man is important from the special forces to the cooks. You are still wearing those ACU's proud and serving your country, which is a lot more than some people can say. I was an 0311 in the Marines, which is like a 11B in the...

    Is this some form of grocery prices strike?

    Zombies!?

    You're certainly right about that ;). I definitely know how that goes man. My wife made me budget when she was pregnant and we combine at a little over $150,000 a year. It's great that women do that though; it's always great to put the child first! My wife's cousin was in the Army. He was a...

    Zombies!?

    Are you in the military? I'm an ex-Marine. If you like a .223 then you should definitely consider an AR15 man. The prices vary you can find some as cheap as $500 and some as expensive as $2,000. I paid $900 for my first one and $1,300 for my 2nd one, but the first one I didn't buy myself it was...

    Zombies!?

    A .308 is a great rifle, but I prefer the .30-06 over the .308 personally. The guns you named have a lot of knockdown power but I prefer flatter trajectory like a .223 or .270.
