A Lesson in Physics, biomechanics and A Bit Of Ranting
This article may be a little over your head and quite frankly it is a little over mine too but that’s precisely why I’m writing it. Let me explain. I am currently a college student immersed in classes, which require studying… lots of studying. I am a huge advocate for education in every aspect of life and most importantly in the sense of training, more specifically proper training. So, I’m gonna kill two birds with one stone here. I am going to write about some biomechanical principles and apply them to weight training so that you can use them to help your training in various ways. They are rather simple when broken down and are very important for training and everyone could benefit from simply reading. So here we go…

I’m not sure why she asked but I assume it is because of the rather long list I gave to the nurse. Vitamin C, calcium, multi-vitamin, fish-oils, milk thistle, chondroitin, and glucosamine. “Is that all? “, “Oh yeah, and I take creatine and drink a gallon of water at least per day.” She looked up at me with a sort of surprised and scared look. “You know that it can be hard on your kidneys, right?”, she said. Have you ever wanted to pick something up in the doctor’s office and just throw it across the room? Well this was that moment for me.
