Improving Strength, Size, & Performance with Loaded Carry Drills

10 Tips for Loaded Carries

1. Maintain proper gait alignment throughout by having the feet perfectly straight (or very slightly internally rotated) and semi-inline.  This maximizes torque into the floor, stability, and body alignment while minimizing energy leaks. Imagine walking on a thick 6-inch line throughout. In other words, there should not be a larger lateral gap between the legs or feet when walking.

 2. Keep full body tension throughout the duration of the carry.

 3. Maintain tall posture with the shoulders pulled down and slightly back and the head tall (not pushed forward). 

 4. Brace the daylights out of the abs and core. More about core & ab training here.

 5. Walk smoothly without jerky motions. Imagine you’re carrying a cup of water on your head during the loaded carry and try not to spill any.

 6. Try not to take long lumbering steps.  Instead focus on smaller, more compact, quicker steps.

 7. Go barefoot or wear minimalist shoes to achieve maximal foot and ankle activation which will optimize recruitment up the kinetic chain. 

8. Don’t use wrist straps. Instead, strengthen your grip by squeezing the daylight of the weights.

 9. Use chalk when necessary such as during the heaviest sets where grip is obviously the limiting factor.

10. Don’t use a weightlifting belt. Instead, use your core musculature to stabilize your spine.

my dearly-held self-insert thing for the Batfamily is they’re highly trained gymnasts, athletes, fighters, etc etc, but even they despair when Bruce makes them do weighted Bulgarian Split Squats and I STAND by this

Stand With Barbells Functional for The Sims 2

As requested I created a functional workout station for your sims (teen to elder) to exercise.

I used Lil Diva Weight Lifting Animations (you need to download the animations from her page) and the Barbell and Dumbbells from that post too but I edited them in order to be used with this object so if you want to use it but you have the old meshes in your download folder, you need to delete them and use these ones instead.

The stand is based on an accessories posebox; when the accessory spawn you need to wait a little for it to appear. Then sims will perform the actions and gain fun, body skill points, fitness enthusiasm and lose weight.

The original object is a 4to2 conversion from Severinka, low poly. Found in Hobby-Exercise

Reblog this if you're a fitblr, healthblr, runblr, health or fitness blog in 2024. I'm trying to max out my dash with healthy and inspiring stuff and I always need more people to follow

Shout out to Gideon Nav, I've never been so motivated to exercise or been participating in exercise out of my own free. She died so I could have 1% less osteoporosis as an old lady

i’m so fucking annoyed by the recent proliferation of weight loss drugs disguised as health aids as if we did not literally live through phen-fen and learn absolutely nothing. maybe it’s time for humanity to call it a day skdjsk like i promise you that your body does not need weight loss drugs your body needs good food, regular exercise, and self-acceptance

I look so silly exercising. Wish I could just never move again~ grow and grow, fatter and fatter~ but for now, here I am. Jumping jacks.
