Squat
Bench Press
Deadlift

Everything high intensity and low volume.

How would hight intensity and low volume be good for in season? Especially on the Deadlift.

So this would be 7 - 8 exercises... Seems to be much for inseason training... I would cut it to the basics just to keep your strength during the season... Try to train fairly heavy (low volume) on the compound lifts and the other stuff with high repetitions (low intensity, higher volume) Provided y...

Hey guys i have got 2 things that are bugging me in the gym, 1. My hips rise off the bench when I'm doing a flat barbell bench press as I'm pushing the bar off my chest. 2. Front squat stance: I like to have my feet a bit wider then shoulder width apart and toes pointed out, is this acceptable for a...

I cannot give any advice. By telling this person is an athlete tells me nothing. What does the rest of his/her training program look like? What sport is this athlete playing? Is it in-season or offseason? What are the goals of this training? Etc. You know. Well this would be their first actual prog...

Other ones don't have the power clean integrated in.

He is only able to work out in a gym 3 times a week, i put this together for him, i have the rep set scheme down for the upper body day, i am a bit unsure about the order of exercises in the lower body day and athletic training day a...

Why no creatine? Carbs+Whey Protein. Simple as that. I have no reason to recommend anything else because I don't know: 1) What that buddy is eating otherwise 2) What his goal is anyway. Is it strength? Muscle? Fat Loss? Endurance? parents are anise about it, he had a healthy diet solid 3 meals lots...

hey fellas, my buddy is starting to work out and wants to get a pre work out with out creatine, any recommendations?

My understanding is that heat helps. I'm not a medical professional so I won't make a recommendation for treatment. Deadlifts and kettlebell swings primarily work the hips and the knees are in support only. Squats, lunges and jumps are more risky since the knee is more involved. Stress is good only...

Ill give em a shot!

Thanks man

Traditional cardio is overrated anyway. Your priority should be to heal your injury and prevent reinjury. Next, strengthen all around the injury.
