If you check the mobility thread, I posted a vid there and got quite a few things, including keeping my back tight and glute activation.
Your name sounds familiar too, you from MP forums?
Some good advice there.

Hey guys, quick question, I have recently started doing squats having never done them before, as t'internets say they are a workout bread and butter. Form is ok and weights low but I am really sore the following day and there after, particularly my quads. My question is, should I wait until the Soreness dissipates or is it ok to train through the pain at the next session?
Some good advice there.

Anyone find that because your glutes are beasty your boxers ride up a lot when sitting down and crush your gonads?
Yep, a damned good thread and has helped loads. Im just waiting on IceColds addition to his Squat post and name it 'A guide to better Deadlifting'.
Only kidding Ice!![]()
What's your current stats, height, weight, body type etc? 11.10stone or 74.4kg I am not sure about height around 5ft 11? Ectomorph with a bit of Mesomorph - generally quite skinny/slim but look toned without going to gym but I have really thin wrists/ankles etc
How far were you going back on the pullovers? same as the videos? In the video his dumbell nearly touches the floor, mine was at either 90 or 180 depending on how you look at it! I think it was cos I kept my back flat that I didnt have the extended motion? hard to tell without using the mirror
It's normally those damn hamstrings, especially if you sit at a desk all day.

Ha ha, I know what you mean. For me anything where I get to move around a lot is good. At the moment I coach for my old rowing club and it's really awesome, you don't get funny looks if you just start stretching or walking like a retard because you are trying to activate you core properly.
Well for some of us it pays good
Good luck with the new job opportunity btw![]()
Noted, I will try get the bench first its just the problem of obtaining a bench as the gym is always busy!
Routine seems to be working for me so far as my legs are still hurting 2 days later and the following are still sore from yesterdays workout:
Chest
Triceps
Neck a tiny bit(might be from looking down on torso rotation as I struggle to keep head forward)
Abs hurt a little
Traps hurt a tiny bit more so on the left
Still sore but want to hit the gym today as I leave for croatia for the weekend so what would you guys advise for day 3 at the gym?
