The social media, especially the YouTube shorts and Instagram Reels are filled with videos wherein gym goers constantly attempt PRs(Personal Records) of each and every exercise (nowadays) especially the King of exercises, Deadlift. So, I researched a lot about this exercise and came to know about the nitty gritty benefits of this exercise. I decided to include this exercise in my routine, the conventional form, of course, as this version is recommended by and for the bodybuilders and hypertrophy goals. My personal max was 135 KGs at 66.85 KGs but with the most horrible form, wherein my lower back arcs a lot, since I have very long legs, but nonetheless, I decided to continue and improve my conventional deadlift. In order to improve my form and deadlift strength I included Romanian Deadlift and Deficit Deadlift and after 3 months of training with these methods, I was able to Deadlift 170 KGs but with the same horrible form. I switched towards sumo, just for a change just a few weeks ago...

The information is widespread that biceps and triceps are a very small muscle, so they require much less amount of training than bigger muscles, like Back and Legs. And, there are other sent of advisers, who propose that, they do not require training at all, since they are already being trained on Back and Chest days. In my opinion, one should train them separately in his initial 1-2 years on separate days for full muscle growth optimization.  And, whenever, one feels that he has hit a plateau in terms of arms size development, he should change his routine towards a more robust biceps + Triceps training approach wherein you train them on the same day. And, again, if you have hit a plateau, change towards a plan where you train them less frequently but with more intensity along with bigger muscles like back along with biceps and chest along with triceps or, vice versa. There is no fixed criterion on how you'll merge your workouts, i personally felt that training muscles like these r...

The most hated exercise in the fitness and the weightlifting arena post 2000 has got to be the Behind the Neck Shoulder Press and Lat Pulldown. The emergence of negativity against these two sorts of exercise has been by the new exercise specialists. Keeping their point of view aside and my experience forefront, I will tell you the sort of results and injuries(if any) I have come across after execution of the behind the neck shoulder barbell Press movement. I first attempted the exercise on the Smith machine and was able to go touch my shoulder joint(the upper traps) and fully extend at the top without any pain, and eventually went towards pressing 40 KGs for 4-6 reps.  However, I felt that the standard barbell pressing would be better than the Smith machine version, so after not pressing this way for almost 1.5 years I switched to the old school Olympic barbell and was able to press 60 KGs for 3 Reps strict, no momentum use. The results were much better than the front barbell Press...

Deadlift is the most basic of the exercises one when concerning the weight training. The exercise seems a simple, as the procedure involves just lifting the loaded bar off the floor. However, after a certain plateau point, it becomes really hard to move at least even an inch off the floor. I was unaware of the importance of this movement for almost 2 years of my training.  My first lift was of 120 KGs at the age of 16 at 63 KGs bodyweight, without any prior deadlift and barbell squat training. My form was really improper and I had a lower back ache for the week that followed. I decided to train the movement and reached a milestone of 125 KGs for 6 Repetitions in the next 5 months with a steady improvement in my bodyweight as well, which came to be measured as 67 KGs. And, again, I quit deadlifting for a year and a half. I primarily devoted that frame of the duration for pull-up and bench press weight maximization.  Again, on April 2022, I attempted the conventional deadlift ma...

WHEN it comes to chest exercises ,I have experimented with over 15-25 different variations to target the chest muscle, with limited to no growth whatsoever. However, in this article I will be listing the best and worst exercises which I have come across in my 4 years of training for hypertrophy and strength. The best exercise for this muscle group would be the INCLINE BENCH PRESS, because almost all the people who have recently started working out or have put in 1-2 years of training work, tend to have a weaker upper portion of the Chest, so a more than Shoulder width apart grip on the incline bench actually makes you much more attractive since you'll have a nicer and wider looking clavicle muscles. This exercise also, strengthens your shoulder as well when compared to flatter versions of the exercise. Now, coming to the most controversial part, the worst exercise for the chest may be different for different individuals, especially for those with pre-existing shoulder injuries. But...
