*.* 2014 General Fitness Thread *.*
Welcome to 2014! Now get your ass in top physical condition!
No one else started it so here it is! **From the 2013 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. |

Lewdog what shoes do you squat in? I have a old beat up pair of VS oly shoes and I'm looking at some new Rogue's with the .75 heel or some used AdiPower's on ebay.

Ok - If this is apples to apples - it appears you're saving $110 - as I see the other sites offer these shoes for $200

I started doing that back in the early fall. I was doing 4 sets of 25 when I started. Now I do two sets of 40, and then one set of thirty later. Crazy thing is, I used to have shoulder pain, and did when I started, not anymore.

What's up with the heel raise? I typically workout in barefoot running shoes (not the stupid looking 5 finger weirdness).
I'm honestly curious what the benefit is??? |
