name a lift and how you improved in it
« on: August 19, 2010, 03:40:12 AM »
I started doing bench 16 yearsa ago and improved 100 pounds to 220 at 6-6.

I did not lift consistently.

I tend to lift for a while and burn out.

How to avoid burnout?

What would you do instead? Overhead presses? Solid exercise, but I need so much assistance for it (triceps, side delts, traps etc) so that I quit the exercise all together and focus on assistance exercises. I still really try to get better at the press, don't get me wrong.  ;)

Bullshit - the best way to improve your squat is endless high rep sets of leg extension .. I thought everyone already knew this.

... all kidding aside Bruce Lee once said something along the lines of "if you want a harder kick , then kick" .. a lot of truth to this.

Bruce Lee said a lot of smart things, no doubt about it.

He also destroyed his back doing good mornings and because of that was against the exercise. It's up to you to decide how neutral he was in stuff he said...

And he is right, good mornings are absolutely worthless.

Do deadlifts, stiff legged deadlifts or hyperextensions, nobody needs that good morning bullshit. That works maybe for grandma with a broomstick...

It's a totally unnatural movement.
