Muel Posted December 7, 2008 Report Share Posted December 7, 2008 Push-ups, chin ups and sit ups.I'd also do wide grip pull-ups, dips and back extensions if you can.I'll be getting one of these, they look like a really good idea, cheap too.

Muel Posted December 7, 2008 Report Share Posted December 7, 2008 I'm guessing you're only supposed to use it on a solid wall, not a partition one.They don't actually pull down on the door frame, because of where the foams pads sit on the door frame on the other side the bar just pushes into the wall.

Greetings Posted January 24, 2009 Report Share Posted January 24, 2009 (edited) Seems like a lot of meaningless words to me Are there any programs for lazy people who couldn't be bothered to leave their room and go to a gym?Edit: something like air alert but for the rest of the body.

BONGO Posted January 24, 2009 Report Share Posted January 24, 2009 Swap Thursday and Fridays routines and will give your triceps an extra day of rest after training shoulders before you have to use them to train chest on the monday. After training biceps on monday, you do not use them until you train back. You are giving them 3 whole days rest before you use them for back. If you swap back to Friday, and train biceps on monday, you will be able to fatique your biceps on the, while getting a better back workout with the extra day's rest. You may find your biceps are tired on the monday still, but that's ok. Your biceps are not key to training another body part on the Monday...All the while, your shoulders were done on the Thursday with your triceps that were last used for chest on monday, and they now have an extra day to heal before using them to train chest.It almost seems like 6 of one and half a doxen of the other, but it comes down to the back containing the largest muscles mass in the body, so you need all the help you can get to fatique your back, by having great biceps.I trained your program as far as the same body parts each day, with this exception, with great success. It is hands down the best plan for maximum rest of priority body parts in order to get the most benefit when needed, to help other body parts.Bongo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish-Finger-er Posted January 24, 2009 Report Share Posted January 24, 2009 New program, mass bulk. I'll see how long I can keep going for. Not to sure it will work that effectivly as 2 of my rest days i've got rugby. But will see.Wayyyy too much ben, i know your a lenghty limbed guy, so youll need to do more isolation exercises to make the gains as pronounced. but bearing in mind looking at most days a lot of the exercises are replicated 2 or 3 times. for example;Monday: 3 types of curl?Tuesday: dumbell squats, squats, leg extensions, 3 of the same exercise?Friday, you got 3 shoulder raises going on, bearing in mind on thursday you had shrugs too?Although, i really cant talk, im sooo lacking in motivation, just cant be bothered to train at all. Inur, its all explosive power, so look at plyometrics, can do a fairly short program, using dumbells/body weight and itd probably help. Stuff like hack squats, but jump up so your body leaves the ground, land on your toes, absorb the landing, stop, then go down again, should improve your explosive power in the legs a fair bit, the alternative is regular squats with say a 30-40kg weight. but if you havent got the weight, make life difficult for yourself, and change it to hack squats.

Fish-Finger-er Posted January 25, 2009 Report Share Posted January 25, 2009 WTF!3 1" tacks can hold 200kg? Anyone fancy a broken back? The brackets are screwed into the wall, its also resting on the top of the door frame,and because of the design, most of your weight is pushing into the door frame on the sides, of the side you are on. It would hold your weight, however, dont buy one, i bought one, its crap as hell, doesnt go together straight, sits at an angle of like one side being an inch higher than the other,but it flexes so its straight when you put weight on it, which is scary. It will hold your weight, and wont pull off the door, but the metal framework itself, isnt sturdy at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaffacakes Posted January 25, 2009 Report Share Posted January 25, 2009 I thought it was just balanced on the architrave Seeing as you wont be able to close your door if its screwed into the plasterboard above, its a bit of a design floor...
