*.* NEW- 2014 General Fitness Thread *.*
I guess we filled up the old one... http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=280149
Welcome to 2014! Now get your ass in top physical condition! No one else started it so here it is! **From the 2013 Thread** If you want to get back into lifting, or need a new lifting routine, START HERE: http://startingstrength.wikia.com/wi...inner_Programs If you have questions about the SS programs, look here: http://startingstrength.wikia.com/wiki/FAQ Keep in mind that you're a novice lifter for a longer period of time than you think you are. Novice lifting can last anywhere from a few months to a year or two, depending on how hard you hit the weights and where you started. Once you've reached the point where you don't make regular progress on the SS program, you are ready to move on to the intermediate stage, which can last you for a good number of years. Find it HERE: http://madcow.hostzi.com/5x5_Program/Linear_5x5.htm If you're a very advanced lifter (many, many years of CONSISTENT weight training), then there are lot of programs out there, and which one you pick is simply a matter of preference. If you're really that advanced, you should know what works for you and what doesn't by this point. |

Try to get to 50 by doing as many as you can at a time. For example, do as many as you can in the first set (say 12). Then in the second set do as many as you can (say 10 this time). This now adds up to 22. Keep doing that until you get 50.

I recently parted ways with that girl. I've been working like you wouldn't believe - I'll post a photo in another week or so - I'm starting to see some results, I think this pull up bar is really helping what I was already doing.

Do you guys ever dedicate 20-30 mins to stretching after the work out? or tell me how you massage stretching into your routine.
Thanks. |

Do this: get a belt that has a chain for hanging plates from. Start doing your pullups with a 25 lb plate. Increase or decrease weight as needed. The belt is good for dips as well.

I should, but I dont. It'd probably help with my excessively stiff hip, claves, and hams from sitting at my desk all day.

What about simply weighted belts - do they make them heavy like that or only for aerobics style crap??

I do a variety of rep schemes but usually weighted pullups first with maybe one set of just bodyweight at the end. This always goes on my upper days which I arrange as Upper Horizontal (bench/rows) and Upper Vertical (military press/pullups/dips) with accessory work filing in the rest of the workout.

Add a way to do weighted dips somewhere and you are golden for two of the best upper body exercises after Bench and Military Press. |

You're already a beast and should just move to weighted for sure.
