Does anyone know of a company that sells vitamin C supplement capsules and appropriate placebo supplements for research studies?

The most effective way of using the barbell rows is simply variation. Change grips (hand postion) and the angle of pull (puling to the chest or abdomen). :karate:

I had exactly the same problem a few months back. I would even feel the pain deviating from the wrists during my warm up sets, so I knew something wasn't right. Take Robboe's advice and take some time off. Its the only way it will heal. I found after 1 month, I began using reverse curls and they...

Producing hypertrophy in the hams will definately aid in the sprinting. Not only during the run, but particularly at the start where they are recruited maximally. If you're interested in becoming better in both as a bodybuilder and sprinter, I would seriously advise periodising your training...

First off, hamstrings are mostly fast twitch make up, therefore use no more than 8 reps on sets. To fully work the hams you need to include exercises that function in both knee flexion and hip extension. These include variations of the leg curl for knee flexion and SLDL/good mornings/step ups...

The bones in the rib cage are permanently fused together. No exercise is going to widen the rib cage....lol The chest will take shape once it becomes bigger, and no specific exercise changes the shape of the muscle.

Training volume is one of the most important things to measure in a program. It determines the intensity that you will be working at; since there is an inverse relationship between volume & intensity etc. and also the workout frequency/training split. Further, there are other elements to...

One exercise would have to be the sternum chin up - which is an excellent compound movement.:)

5 months on the same routine leads to stagnation. Unless of course you are a beginner. The body is highly adaptive and so workouts must be modified every 6 weeks or so depending on your training status. The other mistake you have made is that you are constantly allowing full recovery of the...

It looks ok. But I would leave out the extra pushups on Sunday as these are not worthwhile as they will only detract from your recovery ability. Also as far as training the bis/forearms twice a week, unless they are lagging bodyparts, just stick to training them once with the rest of your...

I've used GABA before and also noted the same effects that you have experienced. As far as muscle building, I wouldn't rate it. However getting a better quality of sleep may contribute in the long run to increased muscle mass.

If you cant see the separation then your bodyfat % is too high. GO with BigNate and do the cardio/cut up.

1) Bodybuilders are stupid. 2) Theres only one right way to train. 3) Using supplements to compensate for a crap diet. 4) Resistance training ruins flexibility.

Bruce Lee was elite, he most likely achieved excellent abdominal development DESPITE his training - like with many elite today. Listen to Cackerot. If you have very untrained abs, then you are seriously missing out on crucial core strength. If you think 100 situps a day is training hard, then...
