Ok, so what I don't want is comments like "farting around". Starting Strength is a linear progression. How can you fart around? I mean, I max...
Go away. Seriously. --Me
Uh. I'm doing rows, it is in the routine ;) And pullups/chinups. --Me
I know what you mean. I'm one of the lucky ones who puts on muscle pretty quickly. My problem, even eating primaly, is shedding body fat. As you...
Thanks Steve! I do 3 x 8 for the upright rows (though I may switch to simple lat raises) for more hypertrophy. For curls, though, I don't want...
The swelling of certain areas of the body and vision problems are caused by chronic sugar highs. Historically, doctors recommended diabetics to...
Thanks for the response. Honestly, I'm just looking for one exercise that works :) I've got a full body routine, just looking to finish off one...
Yeah, I'm doing plenty of warmup sets for each exercise, lubricating the joints as it is. I don't record them, but I certainly do them. Upright...
I'm assuming this comment was to 47MartialMan, and not me? I'm sticking to their program with a couple of additions, and sticking to the...
Eh? Plastic? in a 1911? That's like having pork for Shabbat dinner... If I was able to EDC (I live in the People's Republic of Maryland) I'd...
So I shamelessly pirated my base plan off Starting Strength and then modified it a bit. Critiques welcome and hoped for. Is a two day routine...
Don't mean to rez, but this is a good thread. I'm a type 1 diabetic. I'm on a fairly low carb, high protein, fairly high fat diet which allows me...
Go Springboks? --Me
Don't think that this has anything to do with a learning disability, and has a lot more to do with the pressure of performing at a set speed with...
My school is part of ISKF. Regardless of the qualifications of the teacher, Dan tests are all done regionally. I'm in the East-Coast...
I've got a Ronin brand Shiai Black Label which I love. Disclaimer: I don't work for that (or any) online company, nor do I think they sell to the...
Well, "know it reasonably well" means someone who knows karate well. Well enough to teach. But it doesn't mean they are gods of karate. Knows it...
I guess the question is more on the subjective values of "best". I mean, a teacher might know karate but not be good at teaching, or might only...
I'd likely avoid the grappling arts, or at least the ones with falling. They likely won't do your shoulder much good. A traditional striking art...
I would recommend resting it as much as possible. Continue to train in Aikido, but whenever possible try to train one handed ;) Granted that is...
