    It was either that or "get a team of strong fellows to help you out"

    I never said they were finished - just that I didn't know what I was gonna do the next one on!!!!

    (hint hint: suggest something)

    Maybe one something like "the best exercises you've never heard of"?

    I have come across some great tips and new ideas for stuff from the forum that aren't the obvious ones (well, not obvious to me anyway :o) like Cuban Press, pause variations, face pulls etc.

    Excellent idea. Maybe one for each bodypart.

    That was my question. ;)
    I'm at the point now where the DBs weight more than me and flinging them up is becoming an increasingly bizarre manoeuvre.

    If i got nothing else out of the bench webinar, the bit about setting your feet and shoulders on the bench so that there's nowhere for force to leak out of the system was gold.

    Sometimes it's the single line in something like this that makes a big difference!

    Should anyone care....

    // How To Dominate Your Deadlift Without Breaking Your Back

    Sometimes I wonder if the guys I see deadlifting are purposely trying to ruin their back so that they don’t have to squat or deadlift anymore and can have a legitimate excuse for just benching pressing and curling all day.

    Every day in big gyms I see guys who have no place near a bar trying to pick up loads well in excess of 1.5x their own bodyweight with rounded backs and awful technique.

    They don’t even realise there’s one simple test they could perform which would tell them if they’re ready to deadlift, or whether they should spend more time working on lumbo-pelvic stabiltiy.

    (…and I’m talking about the personal trainers here!!)

    I don’t know how the average dude trying to get stronger without hurting himself has any chance in that envoirnment.

    On this live online training class, which is completely free, I’ll be spending 60 minutes taking you through the things you need to know to deadlift safely, with good technique and in a manner which will allow you to make consistent, reliable long term gains.

    Register here: http://app.webinarjam.net/register/23796/e7054dd3b2

    I’m the world’s least natural deadlifter and have managed to claw my way up to a 2.85x bodyweight deadlift. If I can do it, anyone can.

    Here’s what we’re covering:

    -[-- 1. Deadlift PreScreen --]-

    The simple test you can use from the funcational movement screen you can perform yourself which will tell you instantly if you’re ready to deadlift safely.

    If you fail the test, I’ll be showing you a graduated series of progressions to get you from “wonky spaghetti noodle” to “back built with iron bars”.

    -[-- 2. Dominate Your Deadlift With Unusually Good Tekkers --]-

    Do you know where to put your feet relative to your hips? Or what about where to put your feet relative to the bar? Should you set up over mid foot, heal or toes?

    Are you able to engage your abs before setting up? And use the bar to preload your lats and set your upper back?

    What about breathing, and knowing how to keep the bar in close to the body to make lockout easier. Are you comfortable with all those? If not – do yourself a favour and invest an hour on this webinar. It’ll save you hours of heart break and a fortune in physio fees over the next few years.

    -[-- 3. Sumo Verus Conventional Deadlifting --]-

    Even if you can pull a sumo deadlift with good form and technique, I’m going to make a very strong argument as to why you SHOULDN’T.

    It’s a good movement, but some people use it to cover up a much bigger issue.

    Would absolutely tune in live it it was slightly later (Australian time)

    REMINDER - THIS IS TONIGHT @ 730pm

    Want to know how to deadlift without rounding your back?

    Or how to asses which muscle groups are weak?

    What about knowing the best way to train for the lift, and how to modify movements for friends or clients if they can't do it correctly?

    I'l be talking about all of that live in about 8 hours time on tonight's How To Dominate Your Deadlift Webinar.

    Register here: http://app.webinarjam.net/register/23796/e7054dd3b2

    Here's a blow by blow of how the webinar will go:

    why the deadlift is a hip hinge movement, the things that make it different to squat, and why trying to lift the weight up with your legs is probably the most dangerous thing you can do

    Despite pulling over 270kg, or 2.85x bodyweight, I'm a **** deadlifter. That's great news for you because it means I've had to make tonnes of mistakes along the way and now you'll benefit.

    High volume and high frequency deadlifting isn't necessarily always bad, and could be the best thing you ever do for your deadlift once you pay attention to one important variable


    1 "at home" test you can perform to see if you're mobility and core stability is good enough for you to deadlift safely (plus 3 other tests you can use to asses all around movement quality)

    A warm up series to use before deadlifting to eliminate back pain, lift more weights and smash your last PR while still being able to get out of bed the next day!


    What grip is right to use, and the pros and cons of each - overhand, mixed and hook

    The most vital deadlifting principle you'll ever see - why your shins must be near vertical and shoulders over the bar before you start pulling, and what happens when you get it wrong

    The most common mistakes gym rats make, and what that dude beside you deadlifting needs to do in future so he doesn't look like a dog taking a **** mid rep

    The importance of tightening your lats before pulling, and why its the biggest game changer of all for beginner / intermediate deadlifters

    How to train the lift using a number of different approaches, and what to do if you're failing off the floor, in the mid range or at the top

    Trouble shooting common problems and why if you miss at or above your knees, your start position is probably the biggest issue of all

    It's gonna be an absolute belter and I'm so excited to get on it tonight.

    Come along. You'll learn a bunch. If you're traning, out and about, or with clients tonight you can catch a replay when you register in advance.

    See you at 730pm tonight on t'internet.

    So sorry.. .completely forgot about this.

    // EAT THIS NOT THAT

    It's your last chance to register for tonight's nutrition webinar - if you've been following any of the previous ones you'll know this is the lynchpin that ties everything together.

    You've got about 3 hours to cancel your plans, ditch your friends and warm up the couch because I've got some REALLY important things to share with you that mainstream trainers and nutritionists are desperately trying to keep hidden from you.

    (maybe I'm being unfair there - maybe they just don't know any of this)

    Things like:

    The unwavering, guaranteed to be true 100 years from now, fat loss principles that when stuck to ensure success


    How to spot the most comon internet myths

    What Fat James knew about gaining weight, and what he discovered about losing it all again

    How I still battle with losing weight, and the simple method I use to make it happen

    Why talking about calories is BS unless you consider adherence, whether its safe to skip breakfast, if 3 or 6 meals a day is correct, why more meals doesn't necessarily mean a faster metabolism, how to eat carbs at night and still lose weight and why "oat porn" is a load of hoop


    The 1 thing that REALLY matters

    The 3 most important principles of fat loss including the energy balance equation, eating real food, and the necessity of adherence above all else

    Why 4 hours on a Saturday night is probably the reason you're still fat

    How to set up a baseline diet so that you know exactly what to eat wherever you are using just your hands as measurement tools

    Why carb cycling is so good, who it's good for, who should avoid it and a simple formula to calculate it for yourself

    The ONLY way to implement an "if it fits your macros" / IIFYM approach without being an obnoxious ass pilot. Including the exact protein, carb and fat break downs, along with how much of your daily calories are truly "free" to eat whatever you want - this'll come out somewhere between a creme egg and mars bar for most


    Aaaaaaand all the things you absolutely positively must avoid during a diet that will ruin your body and your mind

    I am absolutely DYING to get online to bash this one out. Every day I bang my head against a wall hearing people talk about nutrition. Everyone gets so concerned with the short term tactics, no one ever digs into the long term strategy.

    The strategy is simple - get used to eating decent food regularly, get used to having a rough idea of what you're eating, and then once you're comfortable and know what's going on, eat mostly good food while having the odd treat every day or two.

    At the end of this webinar you'll know exactly how much to eat, and when, and you'll finally be able to give your know it all mate the middle finger and tell em to shove it next time they start peddling dogmatic nutrition garbage.

    See you in about 3 hours,
