2007-05-28 05:02:00 Weight Lifting JournalTraining ArticlesI just want to drop everyone a quick line to say hello and that I will be posting again soon. I have been very busy this past week.I have started an internship at Georgia Tech in Atlanta. This is a fantastic opportunity for me. I am working in the strength and conditioning department getting plenty of hands n experience. There are some early mornings but it is worth it in the end.I have also been doing some consulting work for a hockey team. I have put together a 12 week strength and conditioning program that will have them in shape and strong when they hit camp in late August.Between those 2 projects my own workouts and life, I have not had the time or energy to post news and workout. Now that I am in the swing of things I do expect to be posting again soon.All the best in your weight training, powerlifting, and bodybuilding, programs.Jason, CSCSpowerliftingbodybuilding weight training powerliftingReturn to weight training Home pageGo to weigh...

Do you want to build Mass
2007-05-20 17:19:00 Weight Lifting JournalTraining ArticlesMost who lift weights want to get larger. I have not met one person who works out for sport or health that did not want to look like they worked out. Talk all you want about symmetry, shape and definition, but in the final analysis, muscle mass is the defining element of a physique. The mass building equation has three components: a correct diet strategy, hardcore training and supplementation. Getting huge is not complicated, but there are a few tricks that can help you along. Below are 10 tips to help you gain more muscle and get the most out of your training program. 1. Emphasize the Negative Muscle growth is the logical byproduct of muscle contraction. Much emphasis is placed on the concentric phase of a lift where the muscle shortens as it contracts. But the stretching of the muscle during the eccentric, or negative, phase where the muscle lengthens while maintaining tension can directly cause muscle hypertrophy, too. Emphasizing th...

Transform Your Weakest Bodyparts Into Your STRONGEST Bodyparts!
2007-05-16 01:16:00 Weight Training ArticlesDaily Specialization Training By Nick Nilsson Experience the power of extremely targeted, high-frequency training. It literally has the power to turn your weakest bodyparts into your best! Everybody has them but nobody wants them. What are they? Stubborn, hard-to-develop bodyparts. For me, it's shoulders, calves and biceps. For you, it may be chest and triceps or perhaps hamstrings and quadriceps. No matter what the part, the solution to it remains the same: specialization! Specialization is a technique that provides highly-targeted training overload to one or more bodyparts. This can be in the form of additional training volume and/or training frequency, i.e. do more sets for it and/or train it more often. Just like medical doctors specialize in certain areas of medicine, you will learn how to specialize on a particular bodypart and excel with it. I'm going to show you a particular specialization program that I'... More About: Part , Parts , Trans , Form , Tron

How to Effectively Work and Build The Upper Chest
2007-05-01 23:49:00 Weight Training ArticlesWeight Lifting ArticlesFree Training Article By Nick Nilsson of Better U The upper chest/upper pec area just below the collar bones can be one of the toughest areas of the body to fully develop. The visual, proportional and functional benefits of building up this area are tremendous though! Typcially, when you read about working the upper chest, you will hear a lot about incline exercises such as incline barbell or dumbell presses and incline flyes. While these exercises can be very effective, they don't work well for everybody. If that sounds like you, these are the exercises that you've been looking for. These exercises are especially powerful when used in conjunction with or even supersetted with incline presses or flyes. They will help hit those hard-to-reach upper-pec muscle fibers that are generally not worked with standard incline movements. At the end of this article, you will find links to view pictures of these e... More About: Work , Chest , Effect , Build , Effective

Great Six-Pack Abs
2007-04-27 16:10:00 Free Weight Training ArticlesCrunch Pulldowns For a Great Six-Pack Scorch your Rectus Abdominus, and get a Six-Pack with the Crunch Pulldown. It will hit those abs in a way they've never been hit before! This is NOT your standard cable crunch! By Nick Nilsson The Crunch Pulldown is a very simple exercise to do, perfect for hitting the abs in a way they're not used to at all. For this one, all you need is a high pulley and a bar attachment. Hook up the bar to the pulley and set a moderate weight on it. You don't want to go too heavy or you won't be able to perform the exercise. After you do it once, you'll get a better idea of how much weight you can use. Lie on your back under the pulley. In my own gym, I have an adjustable-height pulley and have it set a few feet off the ground so all I have to do is reach up and grab the bar. If you have just a regular, unmoveable high pulley, the exercise will work exactly the same way but you'll have to ...

Ephedra - Is It Safe And Effective?
2007-04-23 16:01:00 Weight Training ArticlesBy Nick Nilsson Burn fat while you sleep! Eat whatever you want and still lose weight! Don't suffer through hours of grueling exercise to burn fat! You've probably heard all these phrases before but are the fat burners containing ephedra that these claims are attached to really that effective and are they safe? The primary ingredient in fat burners is the herb ephedra, also known as ma huang, or it's manufactured version ephedrine. It has been used in Chinese herbal medicine quite safely and effectively for thousands of years. It is often combined with synthetic or herbal versions of caffeine (e.g. guarana, yerba mate or kola nut) and aspirin (e.g. white willow bark). But does it burn fat? The answer to that question is yes. Ephedra does effectively help the body to preferentially burn fat for energy. But, according to medical studies, there can be side effects, some of which are quite serious. Ephedra works to burn ... More About: Effect , Effective , Safe

Training Bands by Iron Woody
2007-04-18 16:45:00 By Nick Nilsson High-quality training bands like Iron Woody bands are used by many of the top strength athletes in the world to maximize their power, acceleration and muscle mass. Find out what band training is all about and what it can do for your lifts right now! The first thing most people think about when they hear the phrase "band training" are those thin, aerobic-class/rehab bands...basically a long sheet of latex rubber. It's time for a new perspective on band training that will shatter that thought forever! About a year ago, I started reading a LOT about the training techniques of top powerlifters...the guys who squat in the 1000 lb+ range, bench 600+, and deadlift 700+. NOT your average lifters, to be sure. But my focus in reading about their techniques was not to try and put up huge numbers like that. Because I've got TREMENDOUS respect for the dedication and raw power these men and women possess. I know what kind of training (and eating!) it takes to get to ... More About: Training , Bands , TRAI

Killer Workout part 2
2007-04-16 12:14:00 Weight Training ArticlesWeight Lifting ArticlesFree Training Article By Nick Nilsson of Better UHOW TO DO IT: This technique is best done at a time when your gym is not very crowded. You're basically going to be hogging a single exercise area for the entire 45-minute workout. First, select a compound exercise to work with. We'll use the bench press as an example here. In actuality, you can use this technique with almost any exercise, whether it be compound or isolation (single joint). I refer to this as Compound Exercise Overload because it's most effective when done using a compound exercise like presses, rows, deadlifts, squats, etc. Isolation exercises can be used, but the effects won't be quite the same. So get your exercise set up. If you're doing bench press, I HIGHLY recommend doing it in the power rack with the rails set up. That will allow you to use maximum weights without having to worry about being crushed or having to use a spott... More About: Workout , Killer , Part , Kill

It's elegant in its simplicity, brutal in its execution but quite literally ASTONISHING in its effectiveness. I'll tell you right now, this will blow the doors off any preconceived notions you might have about training volume and how the body can respond and adapt to it. Now, the very first time I came up with this technique, I used it to do dumbell shoulder presses. It was a Friday afternoon workout, and I did a set of presses with a pair of 60 lb dumbbells. I was able to do 8 reps with them. But on Monday, only a few days later, I pressed 80 LB dumbbells for 11 REPS - same exercise, and using strict form. That was a 25% increase in strength in only a matter of 4 days! So what... More About: Workout , Killer , Part , Kill 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 |
