This country, this world needs physically and mentally strong men.
I believe @F3Nation plays a critical role in this quest.
I also believe building lean mass is something all PAX should embrace.
I believe we can do it better by sharing best practices.
@DeanTTraining Yeah, I like this also. I hug a 35 to my chest and get a little more ROM. Extra ROM probably not that beneficial, but I like how the entire movement feels…pausing high at the top.
This AM we did pushups like this in the hotbox at the new Rubber Hammer AO.
Where we know speed is the enemy of form and time under tension.
Stop on by if you want to get stronger.
@hotiiofficial I used 10’s this morning but I go up & out to the side, then bring hands together in front, back to side then down and back up for the next rep without relaxing at the bottom. Smoked by the third set of 10 reps.
What if there was an @F3Nation workout in @F3Metro doing low impact resistance training with proper form, rest between sets so u can go hard, 3 sets of 8-12 reps, with the correct weight so you actually got stronger?
@TangoDeltaTD TD, We Started a new workout this week. 0530 Hotbox, Thursday’s. Same time as @F3Hardcore
Low impact resistance training.
Lighter weight, 10-12 reps, 3 sets, proper form, proper weight.
New @F3Metro concept.
It’s as hard as u want it to be.
Another lightweight classic here.
Lat raises
One arm out front
One to the side.
Six reps then switch legs and arms.
Key is to not relax at the bottom, maintain muscle tension throughout all reps. Faster on the up & slower on the down.
@allindianplanet I was in the gym Monday and an old bodybuilder told me the neck, the arm, and the calf should be the same to win first place. I Never knew that.
All these guys have that.
While you have those bricks out:
Here’s another good one.
Single side loading works the core harder.
Weight points to the sky during entire range of motion.
I like 6 reps and switch sides.
3 sets of 12.
Start with 5-10 lbs and work up to 20-30 lbs.
Excellent!
Risk vs Reward
There are a ton of low weight, low impact movement’s out there that will literally smoke you.
They look easy until you realize you are using just about every muscle and your heart rate skyrockets.
