Football Prep http://blog.bodybuilding.com/WSIC This is my journey to get prepared for football. Sat, 04 Jul 2009 02:36:32 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=0.32 en Isolation and Compound exercises http://blog.bodybuilding.com/WSIC/2009/07/03/isolation-and-compound-exercises/ http://blog.bodybuilding.com/WSIC/2009/07/03/isolation-and-compound-exercises/#comments Sat, 04 Jul 2009 07:36:32 +0000 WSIC Training http://blog.bodybuilding.com/WSIC/2009/07/03/isolation-and-compound-exercises/ Lets get 1 thing straight right here, I lift weights for 2 reasons, to look good, and to help with sports. I do alot of compounds lifts, Front & Back Squats, Deadlifts, Bench Press, Lunges, Power Cleans, Push Press, Military Press, Pullups, Barbell Rows, all that good stuff. Yea, I also do Isolation work like tricep pushdowns, EZ curl bar curls, lateral raises, leg extensions, leg curls, all those moves. Now youre probably saying, Dude! Compounds are the only way to go! Well, The main reason that most people lift weights is to look good! youre not gonna get legs like Tom Platz just doing Squats now are you? Now I know Tom Platz had to have amazing genetics to have legs as good as his, The steroids helped also, but you get the point. If you only Squat, Deadlift, and do Lunges for your legs, yes you will be strong, and yes your legs will be big, but they wont be very cut up. For that you need isolation exercises, like leg curls and leg extensions. Now Im not saying only use isolation exercises! That is one of the worst pieces of advice I could ever give! Im saying use a combination of both, with preferably more compound movements than isolation ones. Start out with the compound exercises at the beginning of the workout, and around the end, use some isolation exercises. Now this is geared more towards the beginner weightlifter, more intermediate and advanced lifters already know most of this. I lift to get stronger and faster and bigger for football and soccer, but I also do Isolation exercises to get me more defined and cut up. Be sure to use a mix of Isolation and Compound movements in your exercise program…and remember, Nothin’ to it but to do it!

That is a 0.03 sec PR!!! I was very excited about that. Also, a speed and strength coach came to our school. I did not like him. he didnt tell me anything new, and instead im going to McLeod Fitness Center and doing a 1.5 month S&S program there 4 days a week. McLeod has more equipment, and I go 4 times a week instead of 2 like the S&S coach the school is hiring.
