The Ultimate Lifting Experience
Back,
Backs make bodybuilders. OK, that’s a bit of an overstatement, but consider this: powerlifters, football players and wrestlers may possess colossal legs, arms and necks, but how many of them have attention-grabbing backs? Expansive “wings” seldom occur without regular doses of specialized exercises, so, outside of our subculture, they’re as rare as abs are in […]
Just as sissy squats suffer unfairly from having the worst name in bodybuilding, supersets benefit too much from having the coolest name. The moniker suggests they’re such an effective technique they could turn comic book fans into comic book heroes. Well, supersetting is not the be-all and end-all of training techniques, but it’s certainly in […]
Some people will tell you bodybuilding is 75% nutrition. Other will say 80%. A few might pinpoint it at 90%.

How did you get started with bodybuilding? I wasn’t born athletic, not even close. When I first started taking fitness seriously, just two years ago, I was a lost dog! They say that once you’ve hit rock bottom, there is nowhere to go but up, and that is exactly what happened. I’ll admit that cardio […]
The usual suspects behind diet sabotage are well documented: candy, soda, sugary cereal, any food item with the word “lard” posted as one of the ingredients. However, there’s a group of foods deceptive enough to twilight as innocent additions to a diet program, but moonlight as unwanted add-ons to a waistline. Yep, these diet busters […]
Men,
What got you started in bodybuilding? Well, when I first started becoming active as far as wanting to turn my life around and start getting into better shape was when I was 15 years old. If I can remember correctly, I was around 165 and fluffy as hell. That may not sound like a lot […]
Men,
How did you get started with bodybuilding? fter I cut down for a powerlifting meet, I saw some bodybuilders posing. I had always been interested in bodybuilding but I never knew how to pose. I asked one to show me some pointers and he took me under his wing. 2 months later I took first […]
It’s so brutally simple, a caveman could have invented it. Drape a heavy weight across your shoulders, bend at the knees as you lower your butt toward the ground. then give everything you’ve got to explode back up to an upright position. The squat is a fundamental, universal and central movement in weight training without […]
