Re: Dynamic Stretches
Any hope that dynamic stretches will be added on the site? Couldn't fight any relevant source for them on the internet.

Straight-leg Deadlift

Quick question: My repetition range is 8-12 and I do 3-4 sets of each exercise. If in one of my sets I manage to complete 12 reps (usually in first set), should I increase the weight next workout? Or I need to do 12 reps in each set? You have to set your own criteria. If you're following a program,...

Re: Isometric training
What should be the duration of an isometric exercise, how many sets should be done? I'm currently doing crunches in 20-30 rep range, and now I'm going to add an isometric exercise for my obliques. I'm planning to switch between crunch, side plank / side crunch, front plank every month or two. Is it ...

Re: Belt usage
How should I behave if I train without a belt? Should I let my abdominals to adapt themselves to the load without thinking about it? Or I should draw my belly in, as described in this article: http://www.t-nation.com/free_online_article/sports_body_training_performance/how_to_be_back_strong_and_belt...
