So, I have a degree in kinesiology...

So, I have a degree in kinesiology, I currently work as an exercise physiologist conducting studies on metabolic processes. Ive worked as a PT (physical therapy) and consider myself a movement specialist.

Its nothing impressive, but I feel as though the general population just doesnt have much up to date information available and I guess I would like to help or just waste some of my free time during the summer.

I was thinking of starting up an instagram page or something. I know there are a ton, but I have a to of friends who are constantly asking me questions and I would rather refer them to something than repeat myself.

With that said, is there anything you guys wished you could learn from an insta page? Ill be citing my sources and since im active in the professional fitness community I figured i could get some nice information from the people around me as well.

How do I get the smell out of my squat plug? Getting the mom into lifting but she thinks it's weird that my squat plug smells and won't use it accordingly

how do i get toned for summer

I shouldve seen this coming ;_;

Theres just so much information that you only learn from years of experience. Idk OP Just make it. maybe educate people on muscle fibres and their functions, movement paths and tension etc. BB.com did a small series on muscle groups (cant find it sorry) which was quite good. Just tid bits I guess??

ok OP, what are the least amount of exercises I can do that hit all my muscle groups?

give me a list of workouts that I can do to hit every muscle group as efficiently as I can, because I feel like I must be missing something

also, how do I into hercules mode? what exercises give me a thick, throbbing core? I do lots of planks, sit-ups, and some leg raises but they dont seem to be doing it.

what is the best split for workout days if I were to split things up into three days? what about 4 days?

is there merit in the claim that doing full body exercises every other day puts too much strain on your body?

> checkmate atheists

Where you from if you don't mind me asking. How can you practice as a PT without a license?

how do i get a 6 pack ab

also, is there any evidence behind nofap? pros? cons?

what are the effects of creatine? side effects? pros? cons?

is lifting feels a better workout than lifting weights?

what routine do you suggest to keep me on top of my social fitness?

whats your favorite ice cream flavor? this is probably the most important question of them all

not OP.

>thick core
>only does rectus abdominus exercies

hit yo obliques son, any twisting movement. also if you want it thick you need to do more than body weight

dont planks hit obliques?

I have pretty developed obliques

yeah its definitely not something I can claim to be perfect at, thats why I assumed those around me would be able to ebenfit me. and I dont think there are many other people with autistic notes about studies so people can look up the information themselves if need be.

As much as Veeky Forums jokes, these are questions that people would actually ask daily and I figured If I could put some actual science behind them it would be beneficial. For the most part Ive done quite a bit of work on metabolic processes such as RER, lactate thresholds, and glute 4 translocation.

California. Ive worked here for ~2 years now, but as an assistant which eventually became a full time job. I just cant claim the things real PTs can, but I do everything just the same just without the fancy title. I also have a few years of experience as an ATC for a D1 college which doesnt require a certification in california.

How do I turn into the hulk while female?

Women tend to just want ass/curves and leave their upper body alone. I want upper body mass and don't give much of a shit about legs and ass. Not trying to skip leg day here, just saying that I'm not after that giant juicy bubble butt at all.

Just get onto a generic bodybuilding program and hope for the best?

not really unless its a side plank. planks are good for your "core". Heavy Compounds will also build said core. But for your muscles to develop size they need weight progression. things like leg raises and situps will make the muscles stronger in a way but not really larger

How to combat lordosis + kyphosis, aka "computer guy syndrome"?

Generic bodybuilding Program, and get the best.

huh, so what compounds should I do?

also how to combat lordosis?

stretch

This would be my realm exactly. See the issue is that without any assessments I couldnt tell for sure, you could have something as small as internal rotation at the knee that causes your kyphosis. If you want generic muscles that you could work on I can give you that.

generally you get kyphosis from having tight upper traps and pecs, coupled with weak cervical flexors, rhomboids and lower traps.
Lordosis is generally a mixture of tight erector spinae and ilopsoas coupled with weak abs and glute max.

But once again the issues with these would have to be assessed. If you have internal rotation at the foot you could gain your kyphosis through compensations in the kinetic chain.

This is exactly what I was hoping to post on this insta. Images that people could look at in order to compare to their selves and fix compensations.

I just meant things like heavy deads and squats (mainly) involve a lot of core strength. hence why many physique athletes shy away from heavy deads. mainly though you want to be doing a variety of weighted ab exercise (assuming the strength is there), the abs are still muscle and should be treated as such. you dont just do max BW pushups for a big chest

OP I wasn't joking with a lot of those questions

can you give some good chest stretches. something beyond the generic turn away from doorway stuff.

It sounds too scientific for the general population.

the best thing you can do is perhaps lurk around researchgate and try to create a meta review for other nerds like

strengthandconditioningresearch.com/blog/index/

then go legit like

what kind of stretches

yeah, I have a very hard time with changing my wording to make it more understandable. Its what I am really working at fixing but its something that I figured instagram would be able to help with with images.

>you dont just do max BW pushups for a big chest

I mean... I have a naturally big chest

anyways

do deadlifts and what weighted ab exercises?

I need to go to the gym, but I can come back and answer some questions, I never intended it to be a thread where I do answer, I kind of figured I'd get some half serious answers and then try and make them serious for the sake of ideas. I havent had this much free time in a while so I got excited.

Can I build a muscular body with climbing, swimming and correct dieting?

Also, do you know any good stretches to mobilize the spine / fix Kyphosis?

No change in volume, number of reps per set or anything?

nope. if your aim is to just get big then exactly the same way men would do it. Which also means you should start off with a strength routine if you havent already

define muscular. Look at a professional swimmer, how do they look? will you do as much swimming as a professional swimmer?

Im OP, i didnt answer your question I wasnt sure if you were joking.

Physiologically women are different. There are a plethora of things you would need to account for if you seriously want to add muscle. I can go over that when I get back, and hopefully this is still up.

can you supply reading in the mean time?

3x/week swimming for an hour at high intensity, 2x/week climbing for an hour at high intensity.

Using time in the pool to do some 'isolation' work (eg swimming with legs only, or arms only)

this could be enough for an ottermode physique

i would bust her myth real quick.

I know it's a pretty outlandish question (and not good for a blog post) but I'm actually completely serious. It's also something that you don't find a lot of information on because nobody wants to do it.

I'll keep an eye on this thread, thanks.

My traps always seem to be sore and my neck always stiff. Anything in particular that you would recommend to alleviate this?

How do I increase my bench to 180 from 125 (not including bar)?
