*.* 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. |

It's not while I'm sitting. Tight hip flexors pull the front of the hips forward resulting in an exaggerated lumbar curve and, in my case, lower back pain.

The condition causes hip flexors, quads, and lower back to tighten up and become overactive. Glutes, and hammies become dormant and it gets tricky to activate them so the quads and back take over.
Lunges, bridges, and deep squats strengthen glutes and hammies and get them firing again. The foam roller is used to relax and lengthen the quads, hip flexors and lower back. If you're really curious about it I can post some links with a lot of information. |
