45 minutes does not work in the gym

[CalvinH]

Its something I came up with myself and is the very best Bicep exercise in my opinion.

You can do them standing or seated each is difficult.  Standing, take two light dumbells (I use 20-30 usually) and bring them all the way down to start.  Then turn them as far as you can, locking the bicep peak flex in place. Keep this position and keep pressure as if you are trying to rotate your wrist even more.  Now slowly bring both dumbells up keeping the same position.  It really burns.  The tension is constant the whole time.  You can even practice it without weight to get the movement down and you feel it instantly.

Seated same thing, but you can also flare your lats out and have your arms wresting on your lats and do the same for a little different and difficult variation.  Also, you can try flaring your lats out while standing and doing it for a little different variation.  To learn it though, stick with first description.  Everyone I show this to says its one of the best bicep movements they ever have tried.

Cool thanks, will try tonight.

Speak on these Adonis curls please?

I haven`t seen that pic in years!  That was 2003 in my college suite.  My room mate was this Filipino kid who lived and breathed bodybuilding.  He used to pull his VHS tapes out and would sit for hours watching Bob Paris videos.  My other room mate is one of my friends for life, a black guy whose family owns on Ostrich farm and whose family fought for the Confederacy.  Those were fun times!

I have it in my wallet, I use it as motivation to train, after all I may end up looking like that if I dont.

Oh Come on.  Its not that bad.

I used to be a big 4-5 sets per exercise guy until I saw Haney's video. Always dreaded the 20-25 set marathon workouts anyway, but I feared I'd lose gains if I backed off. Lee sorta gave me permission to pare it down, both sets and exercises, and it worked great. Never went back to volume.

Dorian later had me trying 2 sets per, but I eventually only used that after my first two exercises. The max-heavy weights and extended failure sets also took a toll on my joints/tendons, but I loved his insistence on intensity; I just re-interpreted it: heavyish-for-me (to straight failure) with minimal rest between sets.

Best method or not, it works well enough that I've stuck with it ever since. And it gets me outta that place in less than an hour, cardio included.

Would be great to live in a dorm room with Adonis, a Hebrew, and a Filipino boy.

It was interesting.  I requested the International Hall because we had our own kitchen.  Had to get the calories in or else catabolism would set in.

You just proved my point you are not mentally strong enough to handle high volume you were afraid of your workouts I look forward to the 30 sets, I cant wait until monday to do this

5 sets of squats
5 sets of lunges
5 sets of leg press
5 sets of stiff legged deadlifts
5 sets of legs curls
5 sets of leg extensions

This is what separate a mentally strong hardcore bodybuilder from guys like yourself and your fellow getbiggers.

when i worked at a gym yrs ago it would only take me 20-25 minutes to do a bodypart,i worked at night when everybody was gone and heres what i did for example,id set up 7 chest exercises,like dumbell chest press,incline smith,hammer chest,hammer wide chest,dip station,decline dumbells,pec dec,then id go thru the whole 7 exercises with no rest and then rest 2 minutes once whole series was thru n repeat it 4 times,i know its seems quick 20-25 min n all but i swear to u my chest was on fire after that workout n i had a pump from hell.i did that on all my bodyparts and it really worked great.im a big believer in high intensity shorter workouts over medium intensity long marathon workouts.im not saying any against the longer training cause if it works for certain people thats great and they found their formula,im just saying from over 3 decades of training and trial and error ive found what works for me the best

The fact you keep stopping at a predetermined number of sets shows you are holding back.

So after all these years of  training adonis body still looks the same as when he was in college, jesus christ that has got to be depressing natural or not, steroids are the only way you will ever look like a bodybuilder instead of a swimmer.

Why would you program a closed chain exercise then an open chain followed by another closed chain exercise?

Black, ostrich farmers that fight for their own enslavement.

 

They were Free.  One of the largest slaveholders in the state was a black man.

[The True Adonis]

We had one President of the United States who was in the same class of slaves and treated as such.  Andrew Johnson.  He was bonded to a man called James Selby in Raleigh, NC who made Andrew Johnson become a tailor.  He was legally bound to Mr. Selby until Andrew turned 21.  Andrew Johnson ran away and J. Selby sent out a "Slave Bill" with a reward for anyone who would return Andrew Johnson.  Johnson eventually came back and tried to buy his way out of bondage but was unable to do so.  He was forced to move West.

Andrew Johnson`s boyhood home is located on a Jewish Plantation in Raleigh, Mordecai Plantation Manor.

Here is the Jewish Plantation.




And here is Andrew Johnson`s boyhood home on the Plantation.

Besides, the North was not fighting to end slavery at all.  Lincoln supported the Permanent Slavery Act in the Union that passed in Congress while he was President.

I do extensions last cause by then my quads are fried and I just want to squeeze out the remaining energy that they have left, I do 30 reps cause I just want to feel the burn.

If you are trying to show me up its a big fail cause my answer is correct I did a closed chain exercise squat and I after I do hamstrings I go back to quads and do open chain exercise leg extensions and I was explaining why I did that.
