Just wrote a 20 page manual on how to squat for a technical writing class, because what even are hobbies if you can't obsess over them?

Plus I got to include about one picture per page of the chinese national team, so that was cool.

Grats Grobyc, you the man now

As for me, my back hurt me pretty bad this weekend, so I did some stretching and foamrolling and now its worse. Gonna try working out tonight, hoping to grease the joints a bit.
Excuse me hun, but what is your name? Vivian? I woke up next to you naked and, uh, did we, um?

Take some kind of NSAID and maybe take a hot bath if you can.

Going to the gym today for a chest workout with some conditioning work at the end. Hopefully I don't puke from prowler sprints...

Went to the gym the first time on a regular week night since summer. God, all these people. It's really no fun having to wait between every exercise just for a chance to share a bench with someone. And it's not even January (shudder) ....

You gotta develop a particular look that tells people that they need to hurry the fuck up lol. For whatever reason, folks at the MSU gym have been giving me their machines or benches without me even having to ask. And I'm not scowling or pacing like a sweatshirt bro, I swear lol.

Squat racks used to be what I had to wait for, but now that I'm doing hypertrophy stuff it's always the damn cambered (curl) bar. Goddamnit.

And I can never get the right weight dumbells, someone's always using them so I gotta go +- 1-2kg.

First thought: take the training plates off and use some weight.
Thought after reading description: oh shit that's 70% of my max. And he's using it for a complex.

personally i curl with dumbells and not the curl bar (and since it only takes like 50 seconds to do the curls and since i have like 3 min rest i can just ask to borrow someones weights if they're in use). i feel like dumbell gives a freer/nonconstricted range of motion compared to bars. i know many people do a bit of everything/mix it up but honestly i find any more than like 5x10 with dumbells is more than enough for me

do you/anyone do flies ever? i see people do them a lot and get a bit curious since whenever i've tried them it feels like i'm just raping my arms or something and that widegrip bench appears to be pretty effective at chest but im just curious

#do you even punch?
watched some UFC last night, its so fucking good. comes with inbuilt tension coz you automatically get worked up as shit seeing people fighting. cat zingano vs amanda nunes so sick fight holy shit

Yes flyes are key to building a big chest. Helps to build a mind muscle connection with your pecs if you focus on actually using them to do the job.
The unrealistic sound of these propositions is indicative, not of their utopian character, but of the strength of the forces which prevent their realization.

Phat said to flyes so now I flyes. I got nothing against the movement, matter of fact I enjoy it.

Phat said to do dips too... Now those still makes my right pec/tit feel like it could go at any second. Being very careful around those.

I only did dips and skullcrashers occasionally, they hurt my joints more often than not. You can replace them with comparable exercises imo; if it tells you to do DB bench and dips you could do DB bench and DB incline or something that day.

Dips work the lower chest though, incline press is the upper, so they're not really comparable. I might exchange it for another cable flyes though.

Broscience. They're comparable.

I do machine flies every other workout (so every upper day.) Our cable machine is almost always in use on at least one side, and I find myself swinging too much when I use it. DB flyes just stop putting tension on the pecs after a certain range of motion. I love the machine flyes though. Great for building up chest, and like igne said great for mind/muscle connection. I've definitely improved the use of my chest vs my shoulders in benching since I've started doing flyes.

Real? I mean I haven't read about it, but just intuitively with dips you're pushing towards the floor, with incline press you're pushing towards the ceiling. Seems like it would involve completely separate muscles to me.

Decline bench. Decline db bench. Floor press. DB Floor press. That exercise where you push the dumbbells together and press them up and down over your chest. The list goes on.

Same muscle. Upper chest has a set of fibers that connect to your collar bone while lower chest has a larger set of fibers that connect to your sternum. That is to say, both sets connect to your humerus, as they move your arms, but one connects to your collar bone and one set connects your sternum. The lower chest is the portion with more mass.

Bench press and pushups on rings still activate your chest best.
