Most people with knee pain will also have weak hips (specifically through flexion, extension, and

internal rotation) and a lack of mobility through their ankles (specifically dorsiflexion). Working on hip strength and ankle mobility will typically help a lot of knee pain magically go away. In the vast majority of people, the ankle isnt flexible enough, the hamstrings typically arent strong enough (specifically in hip extension), the hips need more rotary mobility, the spine needs more frontal plane work, the shoulders are never strong enough through scapular retraction and depression, and the neck needs more support. If you address these concerns, most of their injuries and pains will go away, and they will build frames so dieseled out that the opposite sex will throw themselves at their feet.

One effective system I use to improve pull-up performance in more advanced individuals is to do 10 sets of the exercise. If you can do six pull-ups by yourself, divide that by two, so thats three pull-ups. Do 10 sets of 3 reps. In the next workout you try to increase the total number of reps until you can do 10 sets of 6. The day you can do 10 sets of 6 youll be able to do 12 by yourself. Ive seen trainees accomplish that in as little as three weeks. Another method is to shoot for a number, say 30. Perform as many sets as it takes to get 30 reps and see how long it takes you. Then, the next time you do 30, try to beat that time. Ive also used this progression with arm training with tremendous success, but using 100 reps as the goal. Same sets and repswith timed rest periods and decrease by 15 seconds weekly

Certain number of reps split it over two sessions a week and gradually bump it up each week

800 international units of Vitamin E 1 gram of Vitamin C 50 milligrams zinc 25,000 units beta-carotene 100 micrograms selenium The above should be taken only on days that you train and used in addition to your daily multi-vitamin. On the days you train, you will be taking this along with your multi-vitamin.

Leucine - proven to start protein synthesis...not expensive either...

Alpha Lipoic Acid (or in R form). This has been one of my favorite supplements for a long time. ALA can regenerate liver tissue, act as an insulin mimetic, is a POWERFUL anti-oxidant (fat and water soluble) and recycles antioxidants in your body.. Essential Aminos - Love these preworkout..BCAA's also love these pre and intra workout PROVEN supplements that produce a noticeable difference in recovery ability... High quality protein powder...
20,000 international units beta-carotene 50 milligrams of vitamin B-1 (thiamine) 50 milligrams of vitamin B-2 (riboflavin) 50 milligrams of vitamin B-6 (pyridoxine) 50 milligrams of vitamin B-12 (cyanocobalamin) 50 milligrams of Niacinamide 50 milligrams of D-pantothenic Acid .5 milligrams of Folic Acid 500 milligrams of vitamin C 400 international units of vitamin D 400 international units of vitamin E 20 milligrams of iron 200 milligrams of calcium 100 milligrams of magnesium 50 milligrams of potassium 10 milligrams of zinc 25 micrograms selenium 25 micrograms chromium Take 5001,000 milligrams of calcium prior to working out and 5001,000 during the workout. Calcium can be taken in the form of Rolaids. Zinc 50 mg per day
Glycine: Glycine has been found to bind with certain toxins so they can be safely excreted. Luckily, glycine is cheap, and a gram a day would be enough for most people. Vitamin C: Helps build glutathione and protects against phthalates. Take 3 grams a day. However, the best way to determine vitamin C dose is bowel tolerance. Glutamine: Helps build the gut. The healthier the gut, the more it can protect you against incoming toxins. If you have leaky gut syndrome, you could take 5 to 10 grams with each meal or 60 to 80 grams a day. As for a maintenance dose, 20 to 30 grams should do the job. Taurine: This is a calming amino acid but also has the ability to activate detoxification pathways. Take this either after a workout or before bed. One to three grams is best. Zinc: A critical mineral for testosterone. In fact, 98% of zinc in males is stored in the prostate. Low zinc status can and will affect testosterone production. As for dosing, try 300 mgs per day. Some may benefit from more, especially if they have high copper.

 Antioxidant supplements high in A, E, and D: My favourite way to hit this is to simply use organic butter. Resveratrol: This simple polyphenol is anti-estrogenic. Including something like Rez-V in your supplement routine would definitely be a good move. fruits: Bananas and red grapes are very good for lowering BP because these fruits have high volume of glucose for energy. These fruits are also rich in potassium which is capable to act against the fat coating inside the vascular wall. Banana is a rich source of potassium which can react with sodium to regulate the glutinous flow of blood by diluting. * Fish: Fish is another good choice for high blood pressure patients. It can help you to lower high BP. Do not take fish fried with oil. It is recommended to take fish simply boiled with water. Fresh fish is good enough than preserved ones. Salmon is very best for people with high BP. It is rich in Omega-3 acid which can help in then normal functioning for heart. * Celery: It is considered as the best food for health and strength. This contains unique oil which can control blood pressure by helping the muscles to promote a smooth flow of blood in the arteries. It is purely natural and do not make any side effects. * Spinach: This green leafy vegetable has high fiber and magnesium content which helps to reduce cholesterol from the blood stream. The presence of magnesium helps to build good physique and lower BP. * Sweet Potatoes: It has high potassium content which is capable to act against the fat coating inside the vascular wall of the arteries to regulate the BP level naturally.

Kiwi - awesome source of Vitamin C - way more than oranges.... Blueberries - they are good for your brain!

Try eating some of this with your meat for better digestion! It has tons of potassium too... Strawberries - They taste the best of all fruits! Makje sure they are organic - very heavily treated with chemicals.

Watermelon - Great for dieters..it's mostly water! Very filling! Is a good source of lycopene (good stuff that can prevent macular degeneration and save your eye sight)...

This does not have to be measured in calories, grams or anything technical, just look at your plate! Is 70% of the food on it alkalising? And for the other 30%? You can do with this what you like (how acid is up to you - dependent upon the results you want), but feel free to go for some oily fish, wholemeal pasta or wild rice for example.

So how do you train explosiveness? There are several options. Here is a progression scale ranging from the ''entry level'' to the ''highest level'' explosive work. Level 1 - Basic bilateral jumps (vertical jumping, broad jumping, jumping onto a box), throws (medicine ball throws from various positions) and sprints. Level 2 - Unilateral jumps, hops and bounding Level 3 - Weight lifting exercises trying to accelerate the weight as much as possible Level 4 - Shock training or ''real'' plyometrics (depth jumps, depth push ups) Level 5 - Ballistic exercises with a significant load (15-30% of the related lift); jumps squats, jumps lunges, bench throws, etc. Could even be medicine ball throws if the ball is heavy enough. The first step is honestly assessing your breathing patterns, and you can see it from just watching from behind as someone takes deep breaths. Do the shoulders rise or is there a good, symmetrical expansion further down?

Breathing

Here's a basic drill I picked up from Neil Rampe, a brilliant guy with the Arizona Diamondbacks: Position yourself on the floor on your back and put your feet up on a box to flex the knees and hips to 90 degrees. Flatten your back against the floor, and take one to three minutes of deep breaths into your belly. Put one hand on your stomach to make sure that's where you're expanding, and the other hand on your neck to make sure you don't feel your clavicles (collarbones) elevating or the muscles in the neck tensing up. Start out just thinking of moving your belly up to the ceiling, and over time, as you gain familiarity with the movement, you should work toward feeling "symmetrical" expansion, almost as if you're filling a balloon in your stomach and it's expanding in all directions. Simply fixing breathing patterns to make them more diaphragmatic can make a huge difference. Start with a shorter duration (45-60s) and make sure to get up slowly since you may be a bit lightheaded
