#accesorywork

When specifically improving your performance on the #big3, chose #accesorywork that MIMICS those moves. Specificity. And it doesn't have to be one or two specific exercises either before some shithead tries to tell me what's "best". Fuck that and you. But one of my personal (keyword girls!) favorite #squatvariations is the #gobletsquat. This can improve your performance because the dumbbell alone forces you to stabilize yourself, especially as you descend. Pause at the bottom of the last rep for added #timeundertension so the #quads can grow. Here's 70x5x5. #confessionsofanangrymetalhead #metalhead #metalheadlifters #liftwithhatred #strongandshapelygym #ihateyou #extrememetalfitness #nasmcptfromhell #powerbodybuilding #heavymetalfitness #heavymetalpersonatrainer #dreamsofbodydysmorphia #ihatemyself #yourmothersucksdicksinhell (at Strong And Shapely) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRAxr9oJNGZ/?utm_medium=tumblr

Hey! Back at the legendary @apollongym in Edison, NJ today. I'm a firm believer in performing #accesorywork, especially for the #posteriorchain , right before a #compoundmovement and I'm not "just" referring to the #lowerback yet again! I believe your #upperback and #middleback also should be warmed up, especially when you're preparing a big lifts or any variation. Take the #safetysquat for example. In order to be able to hold the bar as close to you as possible you'll want to squeeze those #lats as tightly as possible to keep every stable. Why not train your middle back and your lats first to ensure as optimal of #latactivation as you can achieve? This will also aid in keeping the upper back as upright as you can, although there's more to it than that, obviously. Do you agree with this, the idea is isolation key #musclegroups while they're fresh? Do you prefer to perform all accessories after? Let's talk, tell me your philosophy below! Here's 272.5x5x3 followed by 280 for a single. #unitedinstrength #igpowerlifting #powerbodybuilding #powerlifting #bodybuilding #igbodybuilding #apollngym #edisonnj #centraljerseyexists #nasm #onlinestrengthcoach #beginnersstrengthcoach #intermediatestrengthcoach #legionathletics #legionpulse #teamlegion #fullbodystrength #fullbodytraining #squatvariation #quads (at Apollon Gym) https://www.instagram.com/p/B87MPydjcmR/?igshid=1ivnyi5wo3yma

Haven't hit this number in a while. When you go for #heavysingles it'd be smart of you to reduce your normal amount of #accesorywork to conserve some energy if you can. You can also concentrate on getting an ass that'll make your woman jealous. Here's 320x5x1. #confessionsofanangrymetalhead #metalhead #metalheadlifters #liftevil #liftwithhatred #liftwithrage #ihateyou #strongandshapelygym #flannelistheshit #squat #sexandsquats #yourmothersucksdicksinhell #yourmothersucksdicksfordimesatdivebars #extrememetalfitness #nasmcptfromhell #extrememetal #selfloathing #selfabuse (at "Strong and Shapely Gym Inc.") https://www.instagram.com/p/B69pi8vpe-0/?igshid=1niyslulif5hq

First time hitting 320 in a while. Quick reminder to always BRACE before performing ANY major #compoundmovement. It'll keep your #core tight and your spine as straight as possible. Also, since this a heavy week, and this is 90% of my 1RM, I intentionally stayed away from supersetting #bandedpullaparts before the #squat sets as a means to rest a little more and conserve at least some energy. I also decrease most of my #accesorywork during my heavy weeks, which gives me more of an opportunity to put more work into the big lifts and perhaps even try for a PR. This was 320X5X1. #unitedinstrength #nasm #nasmcpt #legionathletics #legionpulse #teamlegion #fullbodystrength #fullbodytraining #strength #strong #strongandshapelygym #flannelsandbarbells #flannelforever #fameandflannel #powerbodybuilding #fit #fitfam #igfitness #valsalvamaneuver #corestrength (at "Strong and Shapely Gym Inc.") https://www.instagram.com/p/B69ojb-D4K4/?igshid=8brdmrcqbjda

Phase 3 of the #rebuild featuring @startingstrength began today. I made sure I took my time with self myofascial release this morning in order to avoid my struggles from Thursday. So starting now the #deadlift frequency has been decreased yet again for the sake of recovery. The frequency if the #powerclean was also decreased. In its place I was able to add in #accesorywork in the form of eithet #hyperextensions of #chinups based on my needs. I chose hypers because I don't feel my wrist is ready for chins just yet. The workout: #bodyweightsquats x1x10, #squat x45x2x5, 95x1x3, 135x1x3, 185x1x2 and 225x3x5; #benchpress x45x1x5 and 90x3x5 and hypers with just #bodyweight x3x10. #unitedinstrength #igfitness #powerlifting #igpowerlifting #strong #strength #startingstrength #markrippetoe #selfmyofascialrelease #strongandshapelygym #nj #northjersey #newjersey #rutherford #njpowerlifting #nevergiveup #nevergivein #ificandoitsocanyou (at "Strong and Shapely Gym Inc.")
