Gotta love those HITters aye Slobber? :)

I wouldn't be too concerned with how much weight is on the bar, it's not importnat. In sports, speed and Rate of force development is king! Most sports actions happen under 0.2 sec, no time for anyone to exert or use max force/strnegth. [/B] True, but more weight at a faster rate = higher...

I agree w/ most of what you said, except for one part. When I stgarted oly squatting my box squat went up. Not the vice versa. Most of my clients experience the same thing.

DO both, as CCJ said Oly squats are great for development. However, you do recieve a different benefit from box squatting and handling higher amounts of weight. Periodization is the key, use both and keep your progress rolling.

As far as Poliquin, he should look at the Tour de France field if he feels cycling creates fat thighs, I could fit my hand around the entire field's thighs. The reason he sees so many overweight women in spinning classes is because they go once or twice a week or whatever, they use a very low...

In actuality, Charles does not feel that spot reduction is possible. Fat deposition is partly due to hormonal output, as he mentions the article. However, it has been shown over the years that individuals can accelerate fat loss from certain areas, but this generally takes the appliance of a...

Can Akebono kickbox? Personally, I feel Sapp should stick to MMA, he is really outclassed in K-1.

We have a running joke at our facility, the best way to get fat, is to eat bagels, rice cakes and take spin classes. lol Here is a link, check it out. http://www.charlespoliquin.net/spinning.html

Good split Backlash. Depending on your goals, I would drop the front raises, they tend to be hit enough when you bench, incline and overhead press.

It is also quite possibly the worst one ever invented.

Becoming-No Prob, by the way Karma to you and CCJ for starting sucha n interesting thread.
