IC Stop Making Excuses and Let's Get Healthy Thread

[Bcotton5]

squats were really the only leg exercise I did and I cut them out almost completely lol

 

[LUClEN]

Man I'm 22 and I already feel my right knee giving when I do my deep squats

You guys with your surgeries got me thinking I'm gonna be losing my shot soon

@Bcotton5‌ @Trashboat‌

my best advise is to stop doing leg extension. take it out of your leg workout completely.

- stretch before and during leg workouts

- incorporate hamstring curls into the mix

- incorporate dumbbell step ups into the mix. moderate weight nothing heavy (watch youtube for correct method)

- don't forget the calfs, again moderate weights

ppl tend to do certain exercises and overload the weights because they feel they should be lifting more; DON'T.

Feel free to pm me for any advise. [genuine inquiries]

What do you do to hit the quads then?

I don't think any other exercise really works them like that

2015

I'm trying to get toned & ripped a little bit. Not on some Bo Flex shit but have some muscle definition with abs.

I already have energy but I'm trying to increase my stamina, energy & endurance. I'm doing all of this so I can get back into basketball condition.

When I get to that point then I'm wearing wife beaters everywhere this summer lol

Incorporating more deadlifts in my workouts. Trying to build up more balance and inner strength instead of just focusing on isolated leg workouts.

Do y'all wear belts while lifting heavy or what? I got asked why I wasn't wearing a belt a couple of weeks ago doing heavy squats and deadlifts. Personally, I don't see or have a need for one. For those who use them, pros & cons?

 

[808HiLife808]

i never have..

i had people tryna talk me into it, but i figured i would just work on my core to where i wouldnt need one.

For 2015 i plan to be ahead of lazar angelov in terms of aesthetics...

Same aesthetics for myself. I don't hide it I'll probably do a tren cycle in a month or so. Time to get stupid cut. I'm on the way naturally this chick took a picture of me and forgot to take the flash off. When I was helping a new employee enter her info into the tanning system because he was too stupid to figure it out.

I don't wear a belt. I heard if you wear a belt too much during lifting, it can actually make your core weaker, because it would depend on that belt.

Goal for 2015?

Getting my squats to 500lbs. and my deadlifts to at least 550lbs.
