Squat everyday
Marc... as a college athlete, injury prevention is key. Does squatting everyday assist in injury prevention? And if so, how?
The best bet is to lose fat then lean bulk.
Use this until at under 8% bodyfat: www.dropfactorbook.com
Use this to gain LEAN mass: www.massdiet.com
Let me know how this works!
My split is unique right now. I squat DAILY https://content.tigerfitness.com/squat-every-day-rehab-health/ and then I add a bodypart after that and do 2-3 exercises. I have been making tons of gains and will write it into a program soon!
Kids just starting out
Marc I have a 14 year old son who plays travel baseball and he's one hell of an athlete but he wants to start lifting with me in the gym. Honestly I would love that but my wife & I are a little worried his body may not be ready. I would definitely have him lifting light weight with strict form & good clean reps. We do just about everything together except working out so I really want to make this happen but the safety of his health is what's most important.
His body is ready, it has been since he was born IF you know progressions and how to train kids. If you don't know how to do this, find a specialist who can help.
Long term dieting
What are your thoughts on long term dieting? Currently I've been dieting for a little over two years staying in a small but reasonable deficit loosing around 5-8 lbs a month. Currently I'm sitting around 220 lbs from my previous 376 at my heaviest with a goal weight of around 180lbs. My question is should I ride out my diet until I reach my goal weight? Or would it be beneficial for me to take a break from it and focus on trying to add some muscle so I could shoot for a slightly higher goal weight? I have been doing a upper, lower, push, pull an legs 5 day split the past year and a half of my diet.
Diet is a HORRIBLE thing. A healthy lifestyle is key. There is no break from a healthy lifestyle. You should be training hard as is, regardless of diet cycle. A good lifestyle plan is at www.dropfactorbook.com . This is based on this information as I am not sure how low your calories truly are.
Steroids
Risks vs Rewards on standard anabolic steroids, and supplements adviced to take with them, Thanks .
Pre-workout
Is it ok to eat a protein bar pre-workout rather than a whey protein shake? Does having a whey protein shake have the most benefits?
I personally prefer MTS Whey + Carb 10, but if YOU perform best with that, game on! If over 30g carbs, add this for a sick nutrient partitioning pump: https://www.tigerfitness.com/MTS-Nutrition-Nutrient-Driver-120-Capsules-p/1002692.htm
