Swimming, rock climbing wall, soft sand running. You could also set up a low weight circuit, ie - front squat x 20 -> push press x 20 -> bent over row x 20 -> overhead squat x 20 -> push up x 20 -> good morning x 20 -> barbell roll [think ab wheel with barbell]

Pretty much says it. Soft tissue work can help too [foam roll and self massage] But keep in mind, there are 2 types of back squats - power and olympic. Make sure you know which one you are doing, so you don't mix them up. If you are trying to drop real low into the hole with a low bar setup you...

You can get potassium pills super cheap at GNC. Also check your magnesium intake, most americans come up short. Also, make sure to get some carbs w/ you protein after workout

Good stuff. I would add casein shake + fish oil before bed. Eat more vegetables, perhaps brocolli or baby spinach w/ olive oil [easy to make]. Also, eat a piece of fruit the secon you wake up, then make some oats/eggs ects.

Popped my upper right hamstring yesterday during a sprint. Knee flexion is fine but hip extension hurts - I can almost walk normally. Anyone have any experience with this portion of the hamstring? I've prescribed myself rest, ice, elevation and massage. I appreciate any insight!

raised split squats are nice

metamucil + water + potassium supps helped me. Caffeine seems to work pretty well if the pipes get clogged - try some black tea in the morning

overhead squats starting with light weight might do you some good

Maybe move them to front of workout if they aren't there already?

I dealt with the same issue one time. Try dynamic stretching for your hips/glutes/hams: kick backs, over/unders, leg wheel with light weight. Then lower the weight a bit and build back up to where you are now. Try a wider stance and focus on starting the descent by pushing your ass back. Also...

My guess/exdperience is that those buns are probably not great for cutting. Maybe take 2-3 patties and make into a double or triple decker. I don't know - McDonalds is the antithesis of cutting.

heres where I'm stuck, its difficult for me to adhere to a healthy dinner and post workout shake because of the time i get done (usually 6pm) thats if I even get to workout. I have Isopure no carb shakes to eat b4 bed with some EFAs......any suggestions, corrections, HELP. Remember I am no...

I would like to know if anyone is aware of EFA per pound recommendations. I'm 6'3'' 245 and I'm at 8 caps a day. I might eat fish once or twice a week and I also take a little flax with my shake 3-4 times a week. Thoughts?
