What's probably happening is there is tension forming in your neck/shoulders resulting in a tension headache. This is especially true if you like to push heavy weight overhead like I do. Try spending some time stretching your neck/traps following a shoulder workout and invest in a monthly massage. As for the secret to boulder shoulders (...genetic potential aside).....


....heavy overhead presses with both barbell and dumbbells, reverse flies, and..........probably surprisingly, bent-over barbell rows. The secret to massive shoulders/traps is depth. The more depth and density you add to your anterior/posterior shoulder muscles, the bigger you will appear.


P.S. Heavy dead lifts will build you some traps yo!

I don't know if I want to look like Goldberg but I'm pushing ok weight with dumbbell press, barbell I use the smith machine because my gym doesn't have a way to really do it otherwise, I will alternate using a barbell while standing, but lower weight.

I cruised through youre instagram pictures and, after seeing you post in my other thread, have to ask. How do you get abs like that and still eat some cheese burgers?

Skip the Smith and move to the free weight barbell, and utilize the squat rack as a fail safe. The trick to the overhead press with a barbell is a strong back/abdominal section....

...and technique.


As to your other question.........wait for it.........


....moderation. There's nothing wrong with a cheeseburger or some pizza. It's simple: calories in < calories out.

Does your cardio only come from the stair stepper?

When it comes to the gym.....yep! I will stair climb for 45-60 minutes at a slow pace. When I'm cutting, I do 45-60 minutes in the morning (..fasted) and 45-60 minutes in the evening whether I lift or not, and usually only 5 out of 7 days. Running burns too much muscle, and the elliptical just isn't as effective. Walking on the treadmill at an incline is an alternative if I'm not up to stepping for an hour.

I know everyones body is different, everyones goals, etc so for instance, I'll likely never be in a true cutting stage because I will never get big enough to need to cut, however, I like to challenge myself and vary things. Lately it's been a shit load of cardio, and very consistent cardio. I rarely did the stair stepper because I thought it wasn't for me, but maybe it is.

I pass on the ellipical unless I want to pretend I'm doing a workout. I usually aim toward HIIT via treadmill or high incline walking.

Another question, what you training today, and what is for dinner?

Today I am doing Power Cleans, Power Shrugs, box jumps and pull-ups. Dinner will probably be a teriyaki chicken bowl with white rice and broccoli on the side.

There isn't really a significant nutritional benefit in choosing brown over white (..aside from the dietary fiber). Your body processes them the same. I don't care for the taste of brown rice so I stick with white. I get plenty of fiber from other sources, so the 3-ish grams per serving that brown rice offers over white is inconsequential to my overall diet. Keep in mind that there are various types of white and brown rice, so my statement was generalized.

My taste and GI seems to favor white rice over brown, as well as most other carbs. Finally broke down and bought a kick ass rice steamer. I'm happy to consume about 1 cup of rice just about every day now.

I need a rice steamer too. I suck at using a rice cooker, but an Asian friend of mine just gave me the inside trick: the finger measuring method. Apparently it makes perfect rice every single time.

Man, the one i got is awesome. 2 scoops of dry rice = filling bowl to level 2. Put it all together and hit start. The thing chimes and perfect rice, every time. Makes up to 10 cups of cooked rice at one time!

Edit: i may have missed a joke...

It kicks ass. You can choose regular, soft, sticky, hard or sushi rice. Also makes oatmeal. Push the start button and forget about it. Automatically keeps it warm after finished cooking. Cleans up in less than 1 min. Just rinse, wipe and dry.

Fricken smells awesome when it's cooking the rice too!

It's been about 6 months since i purchased it and i purchased it through Amazon. So that must have been it. At the same time i bought a K-cup coffee maker for my office from a different website, so i know i was checking around.

Asians say 2 fingers, Mexicans say 3. But the Mexicans FRY the rice first, so that makes some sense.

I have a much simpler version of a rice cooker but it really did make my life so much easier after getting it.
