  • Why You Should Do Supersets? (part 1)
    By: Alex Smith | - Supersets are use quite often in turbulence training workouts - but why?

    Before we can try to figure out why supersets are so popular and beneficial to use in turbulence training workouts, we have to look at exactly what they are in the first place.

    A superset is basically just when you take two exercises, and perform a set of each, back-to-back, only resting after the set of the 2nd exercise has been done. So, if you were supersetting bench presses and dumbbell rows, ...

  • Using A Stun Gun... Could It Be Any Simpler?
    By: James T Flanders | - You remember the old KISS rule?

    KEEP IT SIMPLE STUPID

    KISS applies perfectly to the use of a stun gun.

    As long as good batteries are installed, it's simply a matter of flipping the power switch on and pressing a button. That's it. Amazingly simple isn't it?

    Yet, at this point you may be wondering, "How long do I have to hold the stun button down? Which parts of the bad guys body am I supposed to zap with the stun gun? What happens to the person ...

  • Daily Specialization 2.0... How To Use Progressive Resistance For Monster Muscle And Strength Gains!
    By: Nick Nilsson | - The idea for this new version of Daily Specialization Training came to me as I was re-reading the famous story of Milos of Crotona in ancient Greece, who lifted a calf (a baby cow...not the calf muscle!) every day until that calf grew into a bull. I'm sure you've heard this one!

    This is an elegant example of the power of long-term, progressive resistance.

    What IS Daily Specialization?

    Daily Specialization is a very simple training technique...basicall ...

  • Why 'workout Confusion' Leads To 'results Confusion'
    By: Matt Wiggins | - There are a lot of different workout protocols out there that are based on, more or less, confusion. By keeping the body constantly guessing, the idea goes, it never completely adapts, and is constantly progressing. This can be as little or as much random activity as you like everywhere from just picking different exercises every time you work a bodypart, to doing completely random workouts, with no set protocol to it.

    There is a certain amount of validity to this. However, I fe ...

  • Tips For Proper Gym Time Management
    By: Dane Fletcher | - Muscle growth is at its prime at about 45 minutes after one stars working out. After this time has elapsed, muscle tissue breakdown will ensue negating the very reason for bodybuilding. Spending gym time appropriately reduces muscle breakdown and presents one with ample time for personal issues.

    + Plan on what exercise to take in advance

    Bodybuilders should not wait until they get to the gym in order to decide on the exercise to take on. So much time is wasted whe ...

  • Hardcore Trap Training For Bodybuilders
    By: Dane Fletcher | - Traps aren't a body part most newbies work or worry about, but why is that? The traps are a great tie-in between delts, upper back, and neck, after all, so why wouldn't you begin working them immediately upon embarking upon a workout routine as a regular part of life?

    There is no answer to that question other than: Exactly.

    Then again, though it's an obvious area that might benefit from an early start, it also takes time with other body parts to get a feel for wh ...

  • Training The Stretch - A Stretch Position Giant Set That Will Pile On Muscle
    By: Nick Nilsson | - When it comes to training, all exercises are NOT created equal. If you're looking to gain mass, you know the squat is going to add a lot more muscle to your legs than a leg extension.

    But did you know that focusing work on the greatest stretched position of a muscle can give you a similar advantage in muscle building?

    Research has shown that placing high tension on muscles in their stretched position can have two extremely important effects on muscle building.

  • Your Keys To Rock-solid Ankle Stability, Explosive Sports Performance And Incredible Balance!
    By: Nick Nilsson | - If you were to ask me which often-neglected bodypart you could work that would have the greatest immediate impact on your sports performance, my answer would be instantaneous...the ankles.

    The ankles are admittedly not glamorous. You're never going to have someone ask you to flex your ankle for them or ask you to roll down your sock for a better look.

    But think of it this way...can you think of a single sport that doesn't involve the ankle in some way (poker and bil ...

  • Bodybuilding Workout For The Busy Bodybuilder
    By: David Monyer | - Most bodybuilders workout four to six days per week and spend at least an hour on each workout. Add travel time to and from the gym, and this adds up to a lot of time spent away from home and the family. This is one of the reasons why a bodybuilder may want to build a home gym in the basement. This will reduce the travel time, but the length of the workout can still be an issue.

    Most bodybuilders will split the body into two or three parts and work one of the three parts per work ...
