Hey scott, in the top of my shoulders i have a bone that sticks out and its really annoying me, how can i fill it? Is it the collar bone? Should i do shoulder or upperchest exercises? Thanks in advance!!

could be the collar bone. It will hide itself over time as you grow. Just one of those things you need to deal with and make gains my friend! You will be ok!

Hello, I just finished my first week of the push pull legs program after taking a few months off from being a collegiate athlete. My Biceps have been extremely sore to the point that I am having a hard time getting full ROM. When I was training I would suck it up no problem, but is that really the best thing to do or should I take another day to recover?

Well, sometimes when REALLY REALLY sore, its ok to still train the area but really lightly.. this way you are getting new blood to the area bringing oxygen and nutrients to help with recovery. cool

Hey man! when typing there is an icon above that says INSERT / EDIT VIDEO, click that and paste the YouTube URL.

 

BUT, make a NEW THREAD in the form sectio or else your post will get lost here! cool

I got a question,

 

No I see nowadays that stretching before workout and mobility is back in popularity

 

No when I was working there was great debate that static stretching and assisting stretching before a workout had minimum or no impact and the muscles

 

A lot of videos I say on stretching before a workout consists of people going down towards the floor and stretching the legs and so forth

 

Again whatever no is that the lower you go to the ground your heart rate drops

 

Surely if you warming up you want enough blood pumping around your body rather than being cold and having cold muscles

 

Is it more effective to do dynamic stretching with lightweights going through exercises

 

To warm up the fluid and the muscles

It is best to do dynamic stretching before training and static after. Also.. doesnt hurt to do a "warm-up" set of each exercise before going heavy!

Thank you for the reply, just wanted to see if I'm missing out on a trick with warming up as research changes all the time

 

So doing 10 mins on rowing machine, followed up with dynamic dumbbell light exercises, and the old-fashioned pyramid sets is still good as ever

Well, it is hard to say without seeing a photo of you. If you have just a bit of belly fat you can easly lose it while building a solid foundation of muscle and strength with my PPL progrm. Have you looked into it yet?
