Also powder for better grip. Can also try a mixed grip on the bar.

Or gloves, that's less messy than the chalk powder.

Leg raises, either on the floor or on a roman chair, hip raises (also called hip bridge), and reverse crunches.

Tip: by sucking in your tummy during the exercises you put extra stress on your abs.

If it were only that simple... you have to be in excellent physical condition to have good abs, or the genes for them, or both. Then do these excercises every day and eat a nutritious diet..

actually if your under 6 foot, it might not be that difficult...

Re: The 300 workout... brutal shit

great LOOKING abs are first and foremost about shedding body fat. lots of cardio first then focus on the muscle. w/out shedding the body fat no amount of ab exercises is gonna help with the look.

^^^ Correctemundo. Your heighth doesn't have anything to do with it and "genes" only determine how fast you will gain muscle mass. It all boils down to one thing: discipline.

Re: The 300 workout... brutal shit

You mean your fingers or your wrists? For your fingers you can train with hand grips (I always have one in my car to keep myself busy during traffic jams). For your wrists you train by placing your forearms on a bench and lifting a barbell up and down using only your wrists. Both exercises will also train your forearms.

its not my wrists its mainly my fingers that are about to give away when im doin dead lifts especially when i go heavy & am about 7 to 8 reps in, but its good though becuz then my fingers get use to it and get stronger from it. plus i do the over under grip to bring less stress on my fingers.

Err no they ought to work the lower bits. Your upper body shouldn't be doing anything except hold you up, and you work the lower abs to raise your legs. Don't jerk your legs up, count the seconds and lift your legs from the hips in a controlled manner. Count the seconds as you lower them. Make it tougher by holding your legs out in midair and count to 5 or any number you choose

I get that with my fingers too.

Discipline? THIS! IS! MERCURYSERVER!

just got done with the back workout today. I hear you on deadlifts. And that follows for morning glory's, too. I don't use gloves or chalk because it doesn't help build grip strength. but it's tempting!

Re: The 300 workout... brutal shit

I love the climbing that i've taken up again, it's a great overall workout. I do used fitness training for extra though.

The philosophy behind Gym Jones (who trained those '300' guys) is also that simply going to a gym isn't really training your body, you need to add a dimension to your exercises. As far as I can remember it's more about intelligent moving and exercising than just blunt reps.
