*.* 2013 General Fitness Thread *.*
Welcome to 2013! Now get your ass in top physical condition!
**From the 2012 Thread** If you want to get back into lifting, or need a new lifting routine, START HERE: http://startingstrength.wikia.com/wi...inner_Programs If you have questions about the SS programs, look here: http://startingstrength.wikia.com/wiki/FAQ Keep in mind that you're a novice lifter for a longer period of time than you think you are. Novice lifting can last anywhere from a few months to a year or two, depending on how hard you hit the weights and where you started. Once you've reached the point where you don't make regular progress on the SS program, you are ready to move on to the intermediate stage, which can last you for a good number of years. Find it HERE: http://madcow.hostzi.com/5x5_Program/Linear_5x5.htm If you're a very advanced lifter (many, many years of CONSISTENT weight training), then there are lot of programs out there, and which one you pick is simply a matter of preference. If you're really that advanced, you should know what works for you and what doesn't by this point. |

Only dude that religiously used it in the gym I worked in was about 55 years old and I think he just did that thing for 30 minutes a day and worked up a gnarly sweat every time.

A little over a year ago, I couldn't squat below parallel without falling backwards. I have improved my squat quite a bit. I'm hoping this new PT routine will get me back to "normal." I've had this back pain for over a year. It has really interfered with my shit! |

I'm not really having that specific problem, but I sit at a desk or in the tractor, sprayer or combine a huge number of hours throughout the year. And wanted to watch out for it. |

I was doing much better until I tried playing racquetball last night. My back pain has returned. Back to stretching/rolling/exercising. FML!!!!!!

Strengthen your ass. It supports your entire back.

Also, don't stretch out too much before workouts. Light stretching is all you want to do. Save deeper stretching for after the workout.

BigCatDaddy.
Got my slingshot! Couple questions. Is it supposed to go virtually almost all the way over my elbows and instead be tight on my mid/lower arm? It also seems a stretch, just messing around here, to extend my hands out to my normal bench position unless I forcefully extend my elbows outward and really stretch it. All of this might make more sense when I actually go to bench but just wondering while looking at it now.
