IKSC Weekly Link Blast: August 22, 2019
Thought for the week:
“No correlation has been established between getting sore and getting
stronger. Some comrades are hurting units for five days following their leg workout
yet lift the same weights for years. Others never ache…but keep getting stronger from workout to workout…Never interpret soreness or stiffness as signs of progress.” – Pavel Tsatsouline.
I frequently make references to Arnold and some of the old-school bodybuilders. I am a fan of many of the tips in this article: https://www.t-nation.com/training/5-things-we-can-learn-from-arnold-about-building-muscle
I refer to fascial slings now and then with the way your body is connected. Here’s a decent article explaining it. Too bad there isn’t a chart showing them. I’ll have to look harder for one.

No one reading this is afraid of saturated fat, I hope. But, here is a good article written by one of the top minds in nutritional science.

We’ve been working the getup a bunch in class: Here’s something I wrote up on them a few years back.

Here’s the guy I learned to properly do a getup from at the first kettlebell instructor course I attended. His account of his rehab using this exercise is pretty amazing.
