I read in a bodybuilding magazine that you should rest for half as many seconds as you half reps left.
Not so sure about solving the neck strain issue, but these are the cues I use:
Bench height so that your bra strap rests across the edge of the bench. Keep shoulders down and back ('put them in your back pockets'). Don't grip the bar too tightly. Thrust with the glutes rather than the torso (takes a bit of experimenting to feel the difference). Feet shoulder width apart. Put a fire walker loop around the knees and keep pressure against it to keep the knees from caving in. Don't overextend at the top.
Others may have better suggestions, but that's what works for me. Also a weight plate may feel different than a barbell....maybe worth a try?
Hello everyone,
Ok so, after reading this thread, I really want to do the 100 rep challenge, is it on one of the xtrain DVD's? I cant find it on anything!!?? Help!!
Awesome!! thank you! I was not looking at the bonus sectionYes, they appear on a few of the Xtrain dvd's. Only one on a dvd and it's in the bonus section.
You can also use a dumbbell.Thanks for the alternate move. I don't have big plates. I will use Justine's rips and see how it goes.
