    Squat depth article..

    then learn to squat properly. your hips sit between your legs not on top of them. long legs do not cause a more forward any more than bad form, like squatting on top of your legs. keep your knees apart and you will squat deep and without issue.

    Help for a 42 year old Ectomorph

    ^^^ what he said. after years of being a trainer every person that claimed they cannot gain weight barely ate anything compared to those that can gain weight. sure, 1 meal they eat a lot but you have to eat like that all the time to gain weight. if you want to gain, do not eat when you are...

    How to do rack deadlifts without the rack? (Stacked 45s)?

    block pulls are safer for the bar. you can bend a bar doing a rack pull. that is why some companies sell racks with nylon straps to catch the bar which gives a bit so you do not bend the bar either.

    best power rack/cage?

    unless you are looking at a commercial setting it wont really matter, unless of course you squatting like 700+ in it. then get the biggest badest one you can. look to see if you can get your hands on one from an old gym or someone from craigslist.

    Exercise through the day?

    are you warming up for all of these? that adds to the volume as well. if you do 3-5 warm up sets for each workout in the day that would have you doing 15-25 more sets, or 30-40 total sets. seems a bit excessive. sure you could do it, but i bet you could do half or a third of that and still...

    Help me build a strength program

    Waaaaaay too much every day. Biggest mistake i see people do when designing a full body workout is they think like a split program. A split commonly has you do an exercise or movement once a week. The same amount of work sets can be done for each over the same time frame, a week. So if a...
