Hey listen, we get it! You’re feeling impatient about those Noob Strength Gains. You went to the gym once, maybe even twice and you can’t yet find your six-pack abs. You can’t quite bench your body weight. You have failed to even deadlift your body weight. Pull-ups? Well, you can only do 1 or 2.
THAT’S OK!! Things are going to change.
(more…)Firstly, your form is all off. You can’t jump onto the treadmill sideways and then fall off the backside. This takes all the tension off your muscles and puts you in danger of serious lower-body injury. Treadmill workouts can be dangerous if you’re screwing around trying to make your friends laugh.

As a fitness instructor back in the day, I would often hear this objection to weight training from females, “but I don’t want to get too bulky”. Well, these ‘fit and sexy’ professional female bodybuilders are the reason for those objections. However, truth be told, you have to take lots of anabolic steroids and other substances to end up like these two beauties. Much props to the effort they put in to get to this point, but unfortunately, 99.9% of female athletes would prefer NOT to look like this. Therefore on the ‘fit and sexy’ front, in my opinion, these ladies are doing it wrong.
I’ve heard of balance training, I’ve heard of barbell squats, and I’ve heard of swiss ball squats. To my recollection, no one has ever done any of those exercises quite like this.
Santa:
I know when you’ve been running.
I know when you lift weights.
I know if your form is bad or good,
and how many scoops are in your protein shakes.
Me:
Bro, do you even lift?
This dude was voted most likely to fall on his nose.
