If you’re here, it’s probably because I told you to come
here or some other sherdogger recommended the
site (my thanks to these 2nd degree acquaintances) In any event, you’re here, and
you’re probably here to learn to lift some weights or expand on your
vast knowledge of lifting heavy objects and putting them down again. Below are some things I have been
ruminating on, and writing down in a place I could send other people who
want (or need) the information. So quit clogging up my forums with threads
that have been done a thousand times.
Strength
Training 101 -
This
is a larger than little article I wrote so that you could learn to lift
right! It includes how to make
a routine, what types of exercises to choose and more importantly WHY I
think you should construct a routine like this. In need of some updating, but it’ll
still get the job done.
What I’ve
Learned *NEW*
The
fall semester of 2005 was very enlightening for me in my pursuit of heavy
iron. This isn’t so much
an article as bunch of snippets on how good lifting habits. Every beginner should read it, and
in my from what I’ve seen, most people with less than 3 years lifting
experience could probably benefit too.
I wish somebody had told me these things when I started.

Do it
Yourself Grip Equipment -
Lower Arm strength is
critical for anyone serious about grip training. Learn to make the
equipment you need.
Intermediate
- Advanced rep schemes
This
hosts a spreadsheet on rep schemes not for the novice lifter. Once you get about 6-12 reps under
your belt You should be good to go in here.
Exercise Mediums -
A
page I made to cover how you get your exercises done. Right now I only cover barbells,
dumbbells, sandbags and kegs.
The routine in the end is geared towards general or functional
strength, but the concepts can be made more sport specific.
Tabata Interval Timer MP3 -
This
is an MP3 file that I created to make simplify timing out tabtata intervals. It begins with a 10 second rest,
sounds a chime, and has the first of eight 20 second work periods. The whole file is 4 minutes
long. Good luck.
Experimental
-
This is my little
experiment in randomness. In it is a interval
running routine generator, weighted and non weighted GPP generator and a
bag/pad work generator.
