  1. Legs and glutes

    So make a somewhat technical lift even more technical by throwing balance into the equation?

  2. Squats or Deads

    You don't really "need" to deadlift, especially if you're in the PL game, let alone do it the same day as squats. If your squat goes up... alakazam... so does your deadlift. I've had some of my best overall gains doing a heavy set for 3 or 5 everyother week while squatting twice a week heavy...

  3. Legs and glutes

    You could use a lat machine to do GHRs which makes them 10x harder and takes the lower back. out of the movement. The main problem with thrusters for me is that I'm too thick to get under the bar and i always find a way to almost flip the bench even when its braced against a power rack. Id like...

  4. Legs and glutes

    I'm curious... is there a better way to do hip thrusts? Even with a pad they destroy my pelvis and the setup is an even bigger pain in the ass. Full GHRs are a better choice IMO for time's sake and development's sake.

  5. Tri. ext. vs Skullcrusher vs. Tri. cable push Dn.

    Not to state the obvious but... Like asoon said maybe you should go with something compound like the overhead press or weighted dips. Bill Starr advocated both for tricep development and strength, and i can't argue with him. Direct arm work is trivial when you can just lift heavy ass weight...

  6. Rotator cuff injury

    Ahhh... labral tears... those are always fun. I remember my first time...

  7. T-nation Article advises against Arching during Bench

    Yeah because pushing heavy weights off your chest in a way overextended spinal position is always a good idea. -.-

  8. Squats or Deads

    Squats... more specifically the overhead or front squat variants because they require the greatest amount of skill. Also, when you get a bigger squat you get a bigger deadlift, the inverse isn't always true due to the deadlifts limited ROM.

  9. same muscle 2 days in a row.

    It's really not that big of a big deal. You're not going to overtrain magically by re-doing what YOU thought was a lost cause of a workout. With that being said I have to agree with edje007's ideology that sometimes even though you may think you had a bad workout, the opposite may true. I've...

  10. Core, How and How Often?

    Never. Heavy Squats and heavy standing overhead work are what have worked for me. Gymnastics also helped a lot, but I haven't done any regular trunk flexion work for years.

  11. Where do your priorities lie?

    If you were left with a debilitating muscle disease that only allowed you to gain strength and mass on two muscles and you could only use one exercise on each muscle (hypothetically of course), then what muscles would you chose and what exercise would you use for each? Which do you think would...

  12. Mass gaining program?

    Key word there: mobility Which is not an assistance exercise in my book. If you find a stretch or mobility work that adds mass, give me a call before you make the greatest discovery of all time.

  13. Mass gaining program?

    You really need to get a sense of humor. Of course if I had a PhD (or any degree for that matter) in an exercise science related field and still only pulled in 40k, I'd be a little dull as well. Haha And when I send you my tapes and my form is immaculate then will you shut up and stop condoning...

  14. Mass gaining program?

    I guess if you've got nothing better to do, oh wait, you don't. Perfect. Free expert full evaluation... hell yeah.

  15. Mass gaining program?

    If I'm wrong then how come I have 0 of your awful imbalances and I do 0 of your overrated accessories? I didn't know you had to be an expert to sign up on this site and share your opinions and experiences. Hmmmm... must have missed that. So if I'm so wrong then please explain why I'm an...

  16. Mass gaining program?

    I'm still waiting for your book of a post on why I'm wrong Better get to work. ;|

  17. Mass gaining program?

    Haha nice quote. I'm entitled to my opinion and ideas, I never said you guys had to like it or agree with it. I base my ideas off of my experiences, I don't live in the gym nor do I live on these forums (not to mention any names) or do I work in the exercise science field and take this way too...

  18. Mass gaining program?

    I think you have a brain imbalance for trying to impose you're six paragraphs of nonsense on us. Now go play some Brain Age and do some curls to fix it. Meanwhile I'll do some heavy deads because apparently I have some imbalances I'm not even concious of. Haha

  19. Mass gaining program?

    I never said you couldn't. What I'm saying is for those of us who do this as a hobby and not a job, we need more feedback. Come on, no one who is asking for advice on gaining mass is going to able to tell what their imbalances are just by looking at themselves, and they sure as hell aren't going...

  20. Mass gaining program?

    I never said there was, I said learn to address the issues before or when they arise. You can't just walk into a gym your first time BBing (I'm assuming the OP is a beginner because why would he be asking for mass advice otherwise?) or after a long hiatus of BBing and say I think I'll do...
