Ok what do you think a turkish getup is doing? What is your goal with these? The clean pulls also seem like a good way to actually pull something. Do you really think a GHR is that superior to a seated calf curl I mean laying down on your face in the gym isn't the best look. I guess the reverse lunge is better for knee and good for overall leg development? Do you really need lunges and GHR if you are doing deep full range squats? Why not just do more squats? And the rowing at the end? Just preexhausting your back before a future back day? Seems like some borderline weird crossfittish stuff lots of kettlebells
Don`t pick on Joe, he has no clue what he`s doing, he`s only trained with Bill Pearl, Rory Liedelmeyer, Bob Paris, and a bunch of other know nothing nobody`s...........and trained a zillion successful clients and competed in big prestigious bodybuilding contests and placed well or won......he`ll learn as time goes on.

So that means he can't explain his logic?

Ok what do you think a turkish getup is doing? What is your goal with these?

They are a great way of increasing midline stability....something needed with heavy loads on things like squats and deads (both of which you will never do).  In addition they are great for improving shoulder stability.  Lastly they allow you work things in a unilateral way and thus improving imbalances.

The clean pulls also seem like a good way to actually pull something.

Yes, you do pull something...weight off the floor.  Being that you know nothing about explosive strength (only explosive shits) I am not shocked you know fuck-all on why people do these.  Do you realize the posterior chain improvement you would get if you actually did them?  Of course you wouldn't.

Do you really think a GHR is that superior to a seated calf curl I mean laying down on your face in the gym isn't the best look.

What in the holy fuck is a seated calf curl???  GHR or GHD machines work the hamstrings and glutes.  Weren't you the one looking to improve your hamstring development?  Oh, thats right you know everything because you are "in shape"

I guess the reverse lunge is better for knee and good for overall leg development?

Its another tool in the bag of things that can be used to improve leg development.  another thing you are lacking...but don't want to do anything about.

Do you really need lunges and GHR if you are doing deep full range squats? Why not just do more squats?

are you truly that stupid that you would ask those two questions? 

And the rowing at the end? Just preexhausting your back before a future back day? Seems like some borderline weird crossfittish stuff lots of kettlebells

Rowing is more for cardio.  Which, if you actually did it you would know that doing so actually has been shown to help with hypertrophy (which I gave you studies on but you ignored).  Rowing on a concept will not pre-exhaust your back for a future back day.  Geezus you sound like a retarded bro-science article from flex magazine.  By the way, how do you feel knowing that many crossfitters your age and older can out squat you


I know Joe doesn't need me to chime in but Brian you truly are the consummate dumb fuck on here.  Shizzo gives better training advice than you.

Come off it, you were being sarcastic and you know it.

Joe has also benched far far more than 405 pounds a weight you can`t squat for a single rep.

Know your role‼

So if you think I was being sarcastic then you admit his logic seems flawed. What are we trying to accomplish?

I get a ton of upper back development from the air bike.   Good points on the reverse lunges too

To YOU it seems flawed....it`s obviously not a bodybuilding type of routine but I`m sure it has it`s muscle building benefits as well as a host of other benefits as well some of which Krank listed above.

You`ve been "lifting" for a long time didn`t you realize just by looking at it that it was more of a functional strength, stability, and cardiovascular type of workout as opposed to a pure bodybuilding type of workout?

I`m sure it builds muscle as well.

I swear by the GHR machine...it totally fixed my bad back a bit back, now that I no longer do them, my back is a mess again.

Gonna be 47 in may and have never felt better physically incorporating a variety of the stuff all discussed here.   Yeah, when I first started I didnt know any better.  I bought all the Flex mags in the 90's etc. 

We all have different genetics and body types.  its good to experiment with different training programs to see what works best for ones self.

Thats obviously dumb shit.   BosuBallBS is not the same thing as what many of us have been talking about.

Thanks WES - one has to be humble enough to admit sometimes they don't know everything and open to try other programs.   

I got fat strong in my early mid thirties - put on a ton of weight and was benching 315 for 10-15 reps.  Guess what, also couldnt walk a flight of stairs wo wheezing.  After lost the fat because I was so mortified seeing a topless pic at the beach of myself, not that much more muscle was under all the fat.  So I changed up the classic, bulk - lean - bulk lean - low reps more food type of 90's stuff for something else I got good results from.  Now, that is not to say what I did would or would not work for someone else, you just have to be open to trying new things and see if it works or not. 

I get fat very easy.  I also retain muscle easy.  Staying lean is a real effort and chore, for others that is the natural proclivity.   I used to train with this guy who was tall basketball type build, dude was fng strong!   I put on muscle way faster than him despite us both lifting same numbers and eating etc.   He was jealous I was getting jacked so fast, but at same ti,e, I was like "Bro, ill never dunk a basketball either - so it is what it is."   But his problem was he wanted to play b-ball and burned so many calories could never add muscle despite all the lifting, so you see what I mean?   If he wanted to add muscle, he would probably just have to lift only, no other activity other than lifting, and eat a crap ton of food.  I had the opposite issue.

I hear ya` SC, I`m more like your friend, I always had a fast metabolism and small bone structure...very little appetite and had a helluva` time gaining weight.

Your workouts are intensely inspiring.

For sure....great stretch...you just have to keep your arms straight with a slight elbow bend....if that makes any sense.   :D

I don`t go way down to the floor, I just got until I feel my lats stretch fully then bring it back over my face and go again.

I have gotten sore Triceps from them though.....can`t totally isolate the lats on this...Tris are strongly involved.
