the first of a series of articles that will look to the science of physics to help us make our training more effective. In this article we will look at the simple law of gravity and how this effects lifting weights. Gravity is defined as - The natural force that causes objects to be pulled towards the center of the earth, it causes objects to have weight. Because the earth is round, no matter where you are on it the center is always straight down. Thus, in order to have continuous tension on our muscles while training we must make sure the actual resistance we use travels a path that is straight up and straight down. an example of this is the military press, the weight is pushed against the force of...

Those of us who have rushed and intense workouts often tend to forget (or ignore) to do our stretching before getting to our intensive exercises. But muscle stretching is actually very important because it prepares our body for the different routines we plan on enduring, and it also helps to prevent some those uncomfortable pains and injuries that really slow us down or worse, put us out of commission. By stretching, we will be more effective in our workouts thus allowing for better results. Looking at the benefits, consider that the critical joints of our bodies that are most susceptible to injuries are the shoulder joints and hips. Without stretching, we are more likely to encounter strains and...

The chest muscle mass group, the pectoralis major, is the biggest muscle group in the upper body. As a result, the chest requires a lot of bodybuilding chest workout workouts to work the upper, lower and inner pecs. A good looking chest really sets off the look of a physique. Also starting out bodybuilders understand that to be able to build muscle mass, you need to rip it down with exercising and rebuild it using a high-protein diet.

The bodybuilding chest workout should be the total focus of a single workout each week. Other muscle groups will get worked in this...

Many people believe that running and walking are all about the legs -- that the arms simply "go along for the ride" and do not participate in the locomotion. Research has found, though, that swinging of the arms -- and specifically in the right-arm / left-leg and left-arm / right-leg manner -- is essential for energy efficiency during walking or running. So arm swinging is inevitable as a runner or walker, and this means that movement of the shoulder joints is inevitable, too. Unfortunately, some runners and walkers often develop shoulder strains during races or training sessions -- especially long ones. Here are five ways to avoid shoulder strains: 1. Stretching Having good flexibility in the...

Shoulder shrugs are ideal exercises for developing and strengthening muscles around the neck and shoulder joints. This area consists of a variety of bones, tendons and ligaments; hence it is highly susceptible to weight lifting injuries. However, if one performs shoulder shrug exercises under the supervision of a personal trainer, one can gain all the desired benefits without the risk of injuries or pains arising from imperfect technique. Development of shoulder joints is important if one wants to develop muscles of the upper arms and chest. A lot of people who exercise on their own do not properly understand what they are doing. This results in not only a disproportionate development of their...

To achieve true fitness any exercise programme should include these 3 essential components, namely, strength training, stamina and endurance training and flexibility training. Of these 3 components flexibility training is the most neglected or perhaps completely neglected component. What is flexibility training and what effects does it have on an athlete's performance? Whenever we talk about flexibility training, the static stretching exercises that martial artists or gymnasts perform before their actual workouts always come into our minds. But flexibility training does not just refer to those stretching exercises. As we all know, the human body is made up of joints, such as the joints of the neck...

Why am I in pain when I golf? Well, this is a complex question that can't really be answered without understanding golf. Although a traditional sport golf is becoming more popular due to the success of golfers like Tiger Woods. Even though golf can be played for many years as opposed to something like football, it can still put a lot of wear and tear on the body. Professional golfers actually have more low back problems than athletes in any other sport. The swing of the golfer can be broken down into 5 stages: the take away, the backswing, the downswing, the acceleration and the follow through. Pain in different stages of the swing can often indicate different injuries. Golfers usually experience...

Lower back exercises when done properly can significantly reduce low back pain by activating muscles of the low back and "core." 80% of people will experience some form of low back pain in their lifetime. Therefore, people should be doing some kind of exercise for the lower back to prevent injuries. The most common form of lower back pain is "mechanical low back pain," which happens when a patient uses the wrong muscles to load the joints of the lower back. When a patient experiences mechanical low back pain it is very hard to pinpoint a direct cause for the pain. This type of pain usually occurs due to a direct injury to the area, repetitive overuse injury, or posture related injuries. When the...

A great physique requires well built shoulder muscles. You will, thus, need to learn the safest and best way for developing your shoulder muscles. A major concern while working the shoulders will be injury. The shoulder is a ball and joint construction very similar to the hip. It lacks the durability and power oft the hip.

Target the trapezius, the deltoid, and...

When one hears the words physical therapy, what most likely comes into mind are masseuses. Yet physical therapy delves much deeper than your typical run-of-the-mill masseuse. The benefits of physical therapy far outweigh those of regular massages from untrained masseuses. What physical therapy is - is a science. It's a far cry from the indiscriminate kneading and pounding of some masseuses. They only make you feel better for awhile, sort of like a placebo. One of the benefits of physical therapy compared to massages is that physical therapy cures you. There are virtually hundreds of benefits of physical therapy, but the key benefits are to evaluate physical problems, increase and maintain muscle...

With Carpal Tunnel and Wrist Tendonitis being such a prevalent issue that involves various pains and symptoms in the wrist area, one can start to wonder if there is any connection to the development, onset, and progression of Arthritis. The dynamic that causes Carpal Tunnel Symptoms can cause Arthritis. Carpal Tunnel Syndrome can cause Arthritis. How does it do that? First we must look at the Carpal Tunnel Dynamic. Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is the end result of an ever increasing Pain Causing Dynamic. We use our hands on a daily basis, and every time we contract a muscle, that muscle retains a tiny bit of that contraction. So we slowly get tighter and tighter. And we stay tighter and tighter, even...

When you learn to do a new task, you probably practice it and learn a way to complete the chore by using the most efficient movements. While it may seem like a good idea to train your muscles to work in certain ways to perform your tasks, overworking these same muscles by doing the same task over and over again can actually cause you to develop a painful repetitive motion injury. One type of repetitive motion injury is a condition called bursitis. Bursitis is an ailment that occurs when your body's bursae become inflammed. Bursa are small, fluid-filled sacs that are present throughout your body to reduce the friction between different parts of your body. They are typically 160 bursae present at...

In case you have never twisted an ankle, or busted a leg, then you perhaps could be thinking as to why physiotherapy is essential in these situations? Such injuries are not the sole reserve of people taking part in sports pursuits. It is quite possible for anybody to dislocate their shoulder, sprain their foot or wrench their wrist. Now the pain experienced hinges on the person and the level of injury suffered and the promptness in having the injury treated by the patient. In several cases, it is quite true that the patient will begin to get some respite and observe decreased inflammation and discoloration if he promptly employs the RICE technique prior to and following the doctor's examination and...

If you are an office worker stuck sitting at a desk all day, then chances are you have poor shoulder mobility and possibly even a pain in the neck. Not only can this bother you at work, but common exercises can make these problems worse. You could end up with rotator cuff problems or worse. Fortunately, just a few minutes of shoulder mobility exercises per day can help you get rid of this pain. Here are a couple of exercises that will improve your shoulder mobility. If you are like me in that you sit in front of a computer for a long period of time each day, then you probably have a lot of stress and tension in your upper back, leading to reduced mobility in your shoulder, causing pain and suffering...

v> Want a muscular body and a bigger bench press?  You need these exercises to for shoulder growth! The shoulders are the key to unlocking upper body mass.  They are involved in all pressing and pulling movements, so if you can improve the strength of your shoulders you will also see your strength improve in movements like the bench press and chin-ups. In addition, the shoulders, along with the latissimus dorsi, are largely responsible for the illusion of a wide shoulder girdle.  If this is combined with a six pack it gives the appearance of what is known as the "V-taper".

We are living in an age when it is hard to differentiate between boys and girls in several aspects. In the earlier decades there was a sharp difference between the spheres of boys and girls and none used to tread into the other. However, those days are no more and what do we perceive today is the appearance of a composite mindset. This is best found when the girls are found to go for chest muscle building. This is certainly a recent phenomenon and has been influenced by boys. But the girls are found to advance steadily in this scenario of chest muscle building. In addition they are found to apply newer techniques to have better chest muscle building and this indicates they are in no mood to trail...

Baseball coaching, along with society has changed over the years. Baseball is the oldest professional sport practiced in the United States, and its layered and nuanced history lends us legends like Micky Mantle and Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig and Joe DiMaggio. However, baseball coaching like the one that received Babe Ruth, or even Jumpin' Joe won't help you train to be an effective player in modern baseball. While modern baseball still has much the same fundamental rules as it did when professional play started in the 1880s - the diamond has not changed, the height of the pitchers mound has been dropped by less than an inch, and the strike zone has been adjusted, but fundamentally, the game is unchanged...

Most bodybuilders start their weekly workout routine with chest day, and for good reason. The chest is the body part, which stands front and center in every front pose, and is featured prominently in most side poses as well. The chest is the focal point of the eyes when they first see a physique. A weak chest immediately relegates that competitor to the bottom half of the placings. On the other hand, a strong chest immediately places the competitor into the upper echelon of placings. For advanced bodybuilders (and even intermediate bodybuilders looking for variation), there are wealth of chest exercises, which can be thrown into a routine to keep things exciting and to address specific weaknesses...

One of the first tools I like to use is the TRX, and I've taken some of these circuits for my own use from coach Alwyn Cosgrove. Essentially you are going to pick 3 exercises to use with the TRX, do 6-8 reps of each for as many rounds as you can fit. I typically like to try and involve a push, a pull, and some type of lower body exercise or two lower body and one upper body. If you visit Fitness Anywhere can find all the unique TRX exercises on their website. The TRX allows us to use some body weight or less than body weight exercises to increase volume without tremendous joint load and even add extra scapular retraction work for shoulder health (see pic). Kettlebells are also great tools and you...

Unlike home gym machines or free weight training, the workout you get from using a resistance workout tube increases the resistance as the exercise goes on. This is a great advantage, because the resistance increases dynamically over the whole period of the workout. When you use the right resistance training bands, your muscles are allowed to stretch gently while pretty much zero stress/pressure is put on your spine and joints. Another thing about resistance workout tubes that makes them a better workout is that you can use them to train with isometrics. This happens to be a well guarded secret that a lot of people don't know about, but lots of celebrities are into using isometrics in their...

The human past has been marked by a very dynamic lifestyle packed with different movement patterns and very little repetitive actions. Therefore, our bodies operate best over a variety of different tasks; and not living sedentary, unchanging lifestyles. Sadly, the demands of most of our daily lives require that we sit in a chair for hours on end, leaning over a desk, repeating the same thing over and over again. This is why we see muscle imbalances. Here are several helpful actions you can do that will likely apply to you. - Foam roll the piriformis, iliotibial band, TFL, hamstrings, upper back - Ball roll the soles of your feet - Stretch out the hips as much as possible - Perform strength work for...

Most people have probably heard the term "tendonitis", but what is it and what are the symptoms of tendonitis? Tendonitis can occur at various locations in the body, including elbow tendonitis, wrist tendonitis, shoulder tendonitis, and in other joints such as the knee or ankle. Tendons are thick cords that connect muscles to bones. The tendons naturally stretch and contract with use. Tendons can become injured suddenly or gradually. A sudden stretch that pulls too hard on the tendon can cause tendonitis, as can repetitive motions that stress the tendon by over-working it. When tendonitis is caused by repetitive motions, it usually develops over a long period of time. It can take months or years of...

As a Portland chiropractor, I utilize many different chiropractic and manual medicine techniques. One of the techniques that I am most excited about is the Graston Technique. Here is more about this exciting form of soft-tissue therapy. This form of manual therapy comprises soft tissue mobilization and incorporates the use of stainless-steel instruments. The goal of the therapy is to separate and break down the scar tissue, as well as stretch connective tissue and muscle fibers, increase range of motion and decrease pain. The Graston Technique uses the instruments with a specialized form of massage that is designed to help the practitioner identify areas of restriction and break up the scar tissue...

Last week we discussed the importance of horizontal and vertical pulling in relation to horizontal and vertical pressing. Protracted shoulders can be a nasty condition; what makes it even worse is 70% of the people that have it aren't even aware that they have it nor of the condition itself! And people wonder why rotator cuff injuries are the most frequent injury in the fitness center. First off, lets again analyze the posture and its cause. Protracted shoulders comes from overactive pushing muscles and underdeveloped pulling muscles; it is a condition of the internal rotators overpowering the external rotators. The internal rotators of the shoulders are the lats, pectorals and anterior deltoids...

A dislocated shoulder is not only painful, but is also an injury that must be corrected immediately to avoid any long-term damage. If you throw out your shoulder, then you should do the following. Always be cautious of a patient's history! Prior to trying to set a shoulder that has been dislocated you will need to learn the individual's previous medical history. If dislocation has occurred for the first time, you would want to hurry them to the hospital. It's hard to say if the dislocated shoulder is the only injury, or if there are additional ones present. It would be wise to leave the first diagnosis up to the doctors. Ask yourself, "Can I set this dislocated shoulder by myself?" If it has...

After writing about the crucial benefits of my top five favorite exercises, I've decided to write about my top five favorite accessory exercises. Accessory exercises have their place in a persons routine when the individual has established a baseline in strength development on their six basic exercises. After training for so long, the use of accessory movements becomes vital. "Accessory" referring to compound movements that are basic, but not a requirement. Weighted dips being on the list, and a prime example. "Accessory" does not refer to isolation in this case; it refers to selective compounds. Think of barbell rows, squats, deadlifts, bench presses, pullups, and presses as your main classes for...

Toning comes after everything in your fitness program is executed. Every session, as it's always designed, ends with toning or cool down segment. This is when you try to relax your body and stretch some muscle groups that have been used in the cardio and strength training sessions. If cardio exercise is a fat burner and weight lifting is a muscle developer, then stretching is a muscle relaxant. To relax your muscles during toning, you must bear to breathe in and out appropriately and stretch without straining your muscles. Soreness is normal at first few attempts but pain is quite threatening. Your workout routines may pain you if you don't execute them in a manner that is suggested by the fitness...

I never forget just how lucky I was that day that my plane landed! It all seemed so surreal. Even though I was shocked and grief stricken for the victims, I still had to deal with the challenges of my immediate situation which was "how do I get out of Kansas?" Clicking my heals 3 times surely wasn't going to get me home. On 9-11-2001 I was in the air that morning en route from Baltimore to Las Vegas for the International Baking Expo. that takes place there once every four years. It was back in the day when I had a Corp. America job that I actually loved and was in the air a lot for business so I guess you could say I was a very seasoned traveler. I knew something wasn't right as soon as we started...

The Angeles Angels Pitcher Kelvin Escobar was scheduled to pitch on Wednesday at Arizona for the first time since his shoulder injury (a tear in his labrum) this past March 25th. "Escobar's going to throw tomorrow, start the progression," Angels manager Mike Scioscia said on Tuesday night before the Angels faced the Red Sox in the first of three games at Fenway Park. "It's very encouraging. He's definitely more upbeat." After knowing about his labrum tear, Escobar argued about the option of having to go through surgery especially due to the fact it could mean a career-threatening situation. Escobar's injury is similar to Mark Gubizca, the announcer for FSN West, who currently travels with the...
