This is a how your knees should look like during a squat when you look down!
Contrary to what a lot of people believe, science shows that squatting is not dangerous for your knees. IF you use proper form.
By driving your knees out and pushing your hips back (imagine sitting on a chair), a lot of the weights are taken OFF your knees and transferred onto your hips, a much stronger and bigger muscle.
This will also help your knees from caving in, which can cause damage to your joints.
So instead of thinking partial squats are going to save your knees (its not & it barely works your hamstrings or glutes), drive your knees out and hips back and get that ass to the grass AND keep your joints happy.

⁉️TES PIEDS SUR LA PRESSE TU LES METS OU ⁉️ • ✅Abonne toi à ma page @_fiit_boyy ➡️c’est des conseils en musculation & alimentation✅. •
La presse à jambes est une excellente machine qui peut être manipulée pour cibler différentes parties de vos jambes. En particulier, la modification de la position de vos pieds peut modifier la zone d’activation. Si, si c’est le cul sur pattes qui te le dit . • Les jambes ne peuvent pas être complètement isolées, mais peuvent l'être dans une certaine mesure! Personnellement je l’utilise pour travailler les quadris (pieds en bas) et pour les ischios et fessiers (pieds en haut). J’alterne, que ce soit avec les deux jambes ou une par une et la presse je la fait toujours après les squats, sinon je m’écroule ♂️. • La presse tu l’utilises ⁉️QUELLE POSITION ⁉️TAG TON POTE QUI SKIP TOUJOURS LES LEGDAY ⤵️

Lemon water by @shannonbillowsfitness
.
I get this questions a lot believe it or not.
I don’t know when lemon turned into a super food that alkaline cleansed your body.
Sure it’s a great idea to drink more water and if you like the taste of lemon in your water, go for it.
Just know it isn’t going to melt far off your hips or improve your liver or any crazy talk like that.
It’s lemon and water, don’t be dumb.

Tag a Friend Who Needs Bigger Biceps!
⠀
In a study they looked at the muscle activation of the bicep brachii and the brachioradialis muscle in each of variation.
⠀
In this study, they did 10 reps at 65% of their 1 RM and looked at the concentric and eccentric. They did 3 seconds a rep. They observed the subject’s trunk muscles and knees to make sure they weren’t cheating on these reps.
⠀
Muscle Activation
During the EZ bar curl and the barbell curl, they found that the bicep brachii and brachioradilais muscle had a slightly lower activation compared to the EZ bar curl but it was not significant.
⠀
Overall
The concentric phase of the lift had a greater activation in general while the eccentric phase had a lower activation overall. The EZ bar curl was most effective at activating the bicep brachii and brachioradilis. The reason this may be for the high activation could be due to the semiproned grip.
⠀
Eccentric Phase
The brachioradilails activation compared between exercises was not significantly different.
⠀
The EZ curl and the barbell curl have very slight differences, so it may just end up being a matter of comfort as to which one you choose.
⠀
One exercise is not necessarily better than the other
Let me know in the comments your thoughts! No questions is stupid! Just ask!

MORNING VS. EVENING WORKOUTS by @grantgirsky
-
Has someone ever told you that morning workouts are better than evening workouts or vice versa?
-
The truth is that any time of day can be an awesome time to workout. The best time is completely individualized & will be different from person to person.
-
Two main factors come into play when deciding the time that best works for you:
▪️Your Preference
▪️Your Schedule
-
With that said, I've come up with a list of benefits for both morning and evening workouts.
-
☀️ Mornings: Exercising in the morning can be a great way to kickstart your day. By planning your workouts first thing in the morning, you are less likely to have work, family or scheduling conflicts that could prevent you from making it to the gym. Morning workouts also help to create a consistent routine that can also lead to better sleeping habits. If you know you're getting up early to hit the gym, you'll be more likely to get to bed at a decent time.
-
Evenings: Exercising in the evening can be an awesome way to relieve stress after a long day. Most people typically have fewer time constraints in the evening, which means you don't have to rush through your workout. Working out in the evening also means you have a bit more time to sleep in if that's something you prefer.
-
Of course, another benefit to workout out in the evening is that you consequently cannot partake in Happy Hour at the same time.
-
Let me know, which do you prefer, morning or evening workouts?
