Ladies and gentlemen….
I present to you:
The BEST Calves exercise there ever was, is, and will be
Do 2-3 sets 2-3x per week in the 5-10 rep range close in proximity to failure
Thank me in a year when your Calves are 3 inches bigger
Madara vs shinobi alliance. One of the most iconic and dominant combat sequences in the entire series. From taijutsu to ninjutsu every thing was legendary
You do not NEED to do Conventional Deadlifts literally ever
45 Degree Extensions CLEAR Conventional Deadlifts for most people based on their training goal(s)
Conventional Deadlifts do a so-so job at building the Spinal Erectors and the Glutes
The stimulus they provide to other muscle groups such as the Hamstrings, Abs, Lats, Traps, etc. is not enough to actually produce meaningful growth in those areas
This coupled with the biomechanics of the lift (technical demands and leverage) are ultimately what make it a pretty mediocre exercise choice in almost every context that isn’t “I want to get better at Deadlifting”
If you’re hellbent on doing a free weight hip hinge…stick with an SLDL or RDL variation
And if you’re willing to go totally against the pro Barbell propaganda:
45° Extensions are the PREMIER OPTION for training the Hams/Glutes/Spinal Erectors in a very efficient/effective/safe manner
Madara tries to come back to life using his Obito's Rinnegan which was originally Madara's.🤯
His plan was finally came to its final stage, as everyone moves towards Madara to stop the jutsu, Minato Namikaze smartly flies towards his old student Obito Uchiha and takes his life.💔
But that wasn't the end of Obito and Madara at all, I guess you all know what happens after this. Do you?💯🤔
Using the Adduction Machine 1-2x per week will provide you with a TON of benefits
Women already know this…Men are STARTING to catch on
Here’s a list of said benefits:
1. Strong Adductors = Reduced risk of groin injury
2. Improve balance/single-leg stability
3. Will improve ability to perform ADLs (climbing stairs, getting in and out of the car, standing up from seated position, etc)
4. Carryover to other lifts (Squat patterns + Hinge patterns)
5. Improves lower body muscular development (No thigh gap)
6. Almost impossible to replicate longterm with other exercises (Copenhagen Planks will be outgrown + place high reliance on ancillary musculature, Cable Adductions do not afford the same stability benefit, etc)
7. Train the Adductors through their full contractile range
8. Improves lower body mobility
If your machine is too light: GYM PIN!!!
This video has been INSANELY HELPFUL to a lot of my clients
If you can’t seem to get Cable Crunches down…watch it!!!
The foam roller helps lock hips in place and then you can just focus on flexing/extending your spine which is EXACTLY what you want to be focused on for Abs
@sxnl05 Adduction challenges the adductors
Abduction is really a glute exercise
I am more inclined to program the latter for women
Usually program both for men/women
Top 5 Abs Exercises:
1) Ab Crunch Machine
2) Weighted Decline Crunch/Sit Up
3) Reverse Ab Crunch Machine
4) Cable Crunches (Anchored)
5) Cable Crunches (Kneeling)
Not up for debate, folks!
