Lifting heavy stuff overhead

TUESDAY 090908

Brought out the good barbells to get some strength work in. Nothing like a light overhead squat to show you your deficiencies. It will tell you which arm is stronger than the other, which shoulder is tighter, show you weaknesses in your posterior chain (low back, glutes and hamstrings) and remind you that there is no better "ab" workout than the overhead squat.


Mike getting into pretty good position after 4 or 5 warm up sets to work out the kinks...


Jim looking strong and inflexible. Tight hips and shoulders will make it harder to progress to heavier weights. That's why flexibility is an integral part of any quality fitness program...


Nikkia's hips and shoulders telling her that she needs to work on getting stronger...


LaToya showing off her naturally good form...
