Forget muscles, you need to work out your NERVES by lifting heavy weights, new study finds Bumped. Quoting: Daozen I do: dips, squats, pushups + cobra poses to hit my abs. I want the simplest weightless routine I can find. Are there any muscle groups Im missing? Happy to listen to any advice. Back - pull ups Legs - squats Cobra poses work back not abs. Look at YouTube.... I move between Cobra and Dog pose a few times. Seems to work my core. I used to love pull ups. There's not one outside pull up bar in the town I live. I looked everywhere. Wait, there is one, but it's 15 mins walk. I don't want to join a gym. Pulling up off a doorframe is risky in a Chinese rented house, lol. I'm going to buy a free standing pullup bar next time I have 100 bucks spare. To the Chinese guy asking about squats.... Yes, they're hindu squats. Check the Royal Court, by Matt Furey. This thread originally was about lifting heavy weights and you make it all about yoga. hardly yoga. the problem with heavy weights is what happens when you reach your genetic max? do you continue trying to add 1 or 2 lbs forever? risking injury and having joint problems? |

Researchers have found that engaging your nerves could be more important to gaining strength than working out your muscles. In the body, specialised nerves known as motor neurons relay signals from the brain to the muscle tissue, which allows us to choose when we flex our muscles. Scientists have now found that some types of exercise engage the nerves surrounding our muscle tissue more than others. They discovered that lifting heavy weights engages the nerve cells more than lifting light weights, even if you do far fewer reps. Lifting heavy weights can induce nerves to carry more signals from the brain to the muscles, making muscles stronger, the researchers found. I don't care about strength, I care about getting bigger for after the workout. |
