1-arm dumbbell row proper form, overworking the shoulder
So going through the videos on the internet i've come across some different ways people do the 1-arm dumbbell row. My question is whether should one let the shoulder drop at the bottom of the movement or should the shoulder blades stay pinched the whole time? Also, I have a problem with one of my ar...

High reps for building mass?
So I've been reading a little about low rep vs high rep training and found some contradicting opinions on that. Appearently high reps (if performed until failure, can stimulate muscle as much as low reps (with more weight). Does that mean that higher reps could be as effective or at least close to t...

Intermediate bodyweight 2-day split program
My take on bodyweight training (with minimal equipment). Primary focus would be strength and mass. It should be noted that it's meant to be the primary training program, not occasional or supplementive to weight training. Upper body day: Chest dip (between chairs) Inverted row (bar or suspension str...

Re: 2-day split workout
Thanks for the feedback so far. Working the rear delts after side delts is a good idea then?

Dumbbell row on the incline bench
Hi! I'm curios whether bent-over dumbbell row on a flat bench (in exercise library) could be substituted by a dumbbell row on the incline bench (lying) or bent-over dumbbell row (standing - like with the barbell). Thank you =)

Re: Question about exercise sequence in the templates
