Let’s be frank. A lot of us struggle with our rear delt development compared to the rest of our shoulder. Whether it be neglecting them in general or just inefficient training, if you want to build bigger rear delts and have that 3D shoulder look, the first step is to ditch the reverse dumbbell...

When you lift weights, there are two primary muscle actions you perform. The concenctric (lifting the weight up) and eccentric (lowering the weight down). It is common for people to only focus on the concentric to lift up as much weight as possible for a certain number of repetitions. But we...

Haha, this is pretty funny. I heard about doing this all the way back when I was in Little League. Looks like it hits hard, but makes the bat too heavy. The whole idea of cork is that it's lighter than the wood and makes the bat lighter.

Pyramid sets are commonly used by lifters in the gym. What many people tend to do is start with lifting relatively light weights close to failure and then gradually build up to their heaviest set.

A drawback of this training structure is that performing "light" sets close to failure generates...

A study found that back squats and front squats produced similar levels of quadriceps activation, however participants used over 21% less weight in the front squat. This means that front squats can be a solid option to hit your quads if you want a lighter workout or want to work around some knee...

For those of you who don't know, I completely ruptured my bicep tendon doing preacher curls.
Since then, watching anyone really push themselves on preacher curls makes me cringe and I have to look away.
It is common for people to go very heavy. You will notice they are unable to...
