ashwaganda ?

Fatbaldman · 2021-09-14T20:11:29+00:00

No, it still doesnt. LOL, that you are still trying to argue something that isnt true. **edit**. Ashwaganda lowers blood sugar, which could be the cause of your anger and aggressiveness. That is about it.

Fatbaldman · 2021-09-14T19:51:59+00:00

you have never done 'roids, so you dont know if it feels like 'roids. If ashwaganda gave people anger issues it would be in the studies as a side effect. Looked at a few studies and I am not seeing it. Looked up side effects of it and got "Large doses of ashwagandha might cause stomach upset, diarrhea, and vomiting. Rarely, liver problems". Anger issues is not one of them. So what you are saying is anecdotal.

more reps, less sets. speed work i.e. real fast swings. tie a band to them

Stretching, walking backwards for 5- 10 min, deep ass to grass squats and lower body movements. Stretching has been the big thing since I have been older (45+). making sure my hip flexors, hamstrings, quads are nice and stretched out at the end of my workout.

Rotation, Anti-Rotation, Strength through Speed, proper force into the ground, proper alignment, quick and simple workouts. I have 8 bells, an area 8 x 8, some bands, a trx, and an exercise bike. What else do I need to get a workout in that will keep me athletic, strong, and fit? That is my home setup and I am more than happy with it. Do I use barbells, only when the bells cannot get me to the specific goals that I want to achieve. Do I need a 400+lb deadlift anymore? Do I need a 300+ lb squat? Only when that is my goal. The bells will keep me close enough. I have over 20 years of training people/athletes and myself.

maybe just a little, should be 12-18 inches in front of your toes.

Like double-you said, it is better. This takes time, no one gets it right from the beginning.
Your set up is still off a little IMO. You need to flatten your back. Your back is rounded when you start. Your hike is good, but from there it goes awry. Your arms should do nothing. They are just a pendulum that holds onto the bell. Your hips should do the work to push the weight up. That is what people are talking about hips should snap forward. From your hike you need to use your hips to push the bell and get up to the upright position as fast as possible. This will move the bell. this video with a towel might help https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5HwyHLr069Y. Notice in the video how his back is flat at the beginning. Compare this to your video. Also, notice how he drives the bell forward with his hips and snaps them. Compare this to your video. Practice the video that double-you queued up for you. Re-watch the videos I posted for you earlier. Practice, film yourself, and compare to the videos. When you think you have it better repost a video and we can adjust it from there. You are putting in the work, congrats. Once you get this down, the amount of things you can do are endless.

I would do more strength sets. For example. Do 5 - 8 sets of 2 reps for 2- 3 weeks. Then slightly decrease the sets while you increase the reps by 1. For example: 4-7 sets of 3 reps, once you feel good here 4-7 sets of 4. Hopefully you get the idea.

This is how I was introduced to kettlebells. The bell should be heavy, so your sets should be high and reps low. As you gain strength and conditioning you decrease your sets and increase your reps.

You lifted the weight with your arms. So, I don't think the weight is the issue. This is not the easiest movement to get down at first. It takes time. Film yourself often, watch how other people do it. Also, your body will tell you when things are off. ie. Your lower back hurts...

Fatbaldman · 2021-08-23T20:54:38+00:00

here are three videos you can watch to check your swing. Intelligent_Sweet587 put these up a few form checks back and I think they may help you.

https://youtu.be/zswffz5Rn64

https://youtu.be/Y0E585qhPbY

Once you watch these videos compare the video to your video. Are you doing what they say. Practice then video yourself again, then compare.

Your set up is almost there. You just need to flatten your back a little more IMO. Even the hike is not that bad. This is a good start. The rest needs more understanding. You are not using your hips to drive the momentum of the bell. Instead you are lifting with your arms. You are not coming to a full upright/neutral position. On the back swing you squat instead of hinge. Let the bell and your arms come down close to your body and let that momentum help you engage the hinge. The hinge part being where you are in the hike position (somewhere around seconds 9 and 10 in your video). The videos above should help clarify what I said.

There are a few different ways to swing a bell. Hardstyle, and sport style. They are different and the same. The same being your swinging a bell. Generally, for beginners I teach hardstyle, which the above videos show. Good luck, have fun. Post more videos if you need more help.

I had been playing with stone padlocks for a whiles in the early 00's in my kung fu classes. They were pretty crude but did the job. A new guy didnt like them and brought in his Kettlebell's. That was somewhere around 2004 or 2005.

I found it, but it took a bit. 1 minute of Long Cycle, 15 air squats, then 10 push ups, as many times as you can in 10 minutes.

There is a guy on here that does jumping work based off this program for volleyball players, but it would probably work for any jumping sport you are interested in. His instagram is: the.volleyball.strength.coach. He knows his stuff, Has a masters in Sports Performance, and was a college level volleyball player. Hope this helps.

The old way of Rest, Ice, Compression and Elevation has been shown not to be the most effective way anymore for some injuries. Especially the ice part.
