Hey Crazier, almost everyone gets a chance to know God and if you do not (but remain free of sin) you go to the 2nd Heaven. But if you don't want to know God and Jesus, you deny them--or are not even interested and eventually Satan will gradually get a hold of you (wether it be through porn...

Protein Catabolism and Empty Stomach: Even though it is true that more fat will be oxidized exercising on an empty stomach, and therefore that fat has a little higher contribution (31-37% more calories burned from fat in the following study) used of the caloric expendeture than when eating a...

I am going to say what some of the guys said already,but it is info everyone can benefit from: *Get rid of the skim milk, it isn't doing you much good (because it has all of the EFAs leached out). *Ditch the behind the neck movements, they are damaging for the shoulder (among the risks...

No offense to you, but, this is wrong and bad advice for two reasons: 1.) Keeping your head down and forward in shrugs will leave a big door open for cervical spine injuries. This is also not just with shrugs. 2.) Increased range of motion will NOT cause maximal muscle contraction. Maximum...

There are a few scientific differences in Bodybuilders and Powerlifters: Strength and Power Training: Physiological Mechanisms of Adaptation. Exercise and Sport Science Reviews, American College of Sports Medicine Series. 24: 363-398, 1996.: *Bodybuilders have a higher ratio of oxidative...

Hey Big bro, I assume you are searching for answers supported by Christians, then you can go here to see them: http://www.christiananswers.net or http://www.christiananswers.net/directry.html Look around, ask yourself questions, form your own opinion. Since I am a science-oriented person; I...

Pectoralis major strains, tears, ruptures are definatley not unheard of in weight-lifting, especially since all are due to range-of-motion exercises.

Since the smith machine stabilizes you, the lower back does not have to do the job but it is working the same synergists as in barbell squat, same actions, same motion. Personally, I would rather choose a varitation of the two. Also on a smith machine you are less likely to get injured, because...

Cocoa butter and high concd Vitamin E oil help the stretch marks to fade a bit, a note: to the sexual over indulgent: low zinc levels are bad for the skin and testosterone levels.

Re: Relief........ Not really, it also very importantly depends on your training time and type of training, nutrition, state of mind. The calves consist of two muscles: gastrocnemius, and soleus. The gastrocnemius muscle (the big lump calf muscle) has a higher preponderance of fast twitch...

Genetics will play a role in things like your: - Slow/Fast twitch muscle fibre ratio, but most people have about 50% slow-twitch and 50% fast-twitch fibres in their muscles, according to Physiology; training does not change the fibre ratio. But by your way of training you decide which fibres...

What he said :) Btw, Deadlifts rule!

You are right about the speed but what could have helped him develop that: If he would have been able to develop more force, he would have put it up, since the total force generated by a muscle depends on the numbers of active fibers and activity level in each fiber...what causes activation of...

Yes it makes sense; although when I lift at home I usually take a 10lb plate and tape things like hammers to it and hold it as long as possible, and go all the way to the pinky (but less weight). I think they have helped me to develop like "spear hands" and I can do fingertip pushups and...

Thanks for bringing this clips to us Heavywear. That is an amazing feat! I can see why he puts his legs far out; less distance for the weight to travel (smart idea)!
