| are pull ups compound exercises: Tactical Barbell 2 K. Black, 2016-10-10 You have something very valuable in your hands. A lifetime's worth of training knowledge, drawn from the world's most extreme arenas. Lessons learned and best practices from military operators, tactical law enforcement, combat athletes, and others that rely on their physical abilities to survive and thrive in very harsh and unforgiving environments. Where there's more at stake than winning a medal, or getting a bruised ego. It's great having a 600lb squat and 400lb bench press. However, as an operational athlete, if you can't move, work, or thrive for long periods of time in a multitude of energy demanding environments, you are ineffective. Your big bench is useless; your big squat is useless. Tactical Barbell proposes you work towards being a different kind of athlete. The kind that's not only extremely strong, but also highly conditioned. If you look carefully, you'll see these people all around you. That guy on your Emergency Response Team with the 350lb bench press and a sub 9 minute 1.5 mile run. The old Marine Sergeant that can run 6 miles in under 40 minutes followed by 30 dead-hang pull-ups. So how do you get there? It's not what you think. Popular 'bootcamp' style approaches that throw a lot of push-ups and running at you in a haphazard fashion don't work for long. Sure, you'll break a sweat and release some endorphins. You might even lose a pound or two. But take a good hard look at your progress. For all your effort, are you really that far ahead? To make real progress, you have to look to the approaches used by professionals. Train each attribute you're trying to improve in a progressive manner, using the most effective tools for that particular fitness domain. In TB2, you'll find the structured, three-pronged approach to conditioning we take with tactical athletes. It consists of Base Building, followed by a transition to a more specific continuation protocol. Periodic maintenance of lower-priority domains complete the model. TB2 is the premier training manual for tactical law enforcement candidates, soldiers, and other operational athletes. You will be hard pressed to find a more thorough and effective conditioning program. If you're a results-oriented individual looking for concrete, actionable programming based on cutting edge practices, this book is for you. |
| are pull ups compound exercises: Arnold Arnold Schwarzenegger, 2012-07-17 Five-time Mr. Universe, seven-time Mr. Olympia, and Mr. World, Arnold Schwarzenegger is the name in bodybuilding. Here is his classic bestselling autobiography, which explains how the “Austrian Oak” came to the sport of bodybuilding and aspired to be the star he has become. I still remember that first visit to the bodybuilding gym. I had never seen anyone lifting weights before. Those guys were huge and brutal….The weight lifters shone with sweat; they were powerful looking, Herculean. And there it was before me—my life, the answer I'd been seeking. It clicked. It was something I suddenly just seemed to reach out and find, as if I'd been crossing a suspended bridge and finally stepped off onto solid ground. Arnold shares his fitness and training secrets—demonstrating with a comprehensive step-by-step program and dietary hints how to use bodybuilding for better health. His program includes a special four-day regimen of specific exercises to develop individual muscle groups—each exercise illustrated with photos of Arnold in action. For fans and would-be bodybuilders, this is Arnold in his own words. |
| are pull ups compound exercises: You Are Your Own Gym Mark Lauren, Joshua Clark, 2011-01-04 From an elite Special Operations physical trainer, an ingeniously simple, rapid-results, do-anywhere program for getting into amazing shape For men and women of all athletic abilities! As the demand for Special Operations military forces has grown over the last decade, elite trainer Mark Lauren has been at the front lines of preparing nearly one thousand soldiers, getting them lean and strong in record time. Now, for regular Joes and Janes, he shares the secret to his amazingly effective regimen—simple exercises that require nothing more than the resistance of your own bodyweight to help you reach the pinnacle of fitness and look better than ever before. Armed with Mark Lauren’s motivation techniques, expert training, and nutrition advice, you’ll see rapid results by working out just thirty minutes a day, four times a week—whether in your living room, yard, garage, hotel room, or office. Lauren’s exercises build more metabolism-enhancing muscle than weightlifting, burn more fat than aerobics, and are safer than both, since bodyweight exercises develop balance and stability and therefore help prevent injuries. Choose your workout level—Basic, 1st Class, Master Class,and Chief Class—and get started, following the clear instructions for 125 exercises that work every muscle from your neck to your ankles. Forget about gym memberships, free weights, and infomercial contraptions. They are all poor substitutes for the world’s most advanced fitness machine, the one thing you are never without: your own body. |

| are pull ups compound exercises: PULL-UPS - from DUD to STUD - to SUPER STUD - WITHIN WEEKS! Rahul Mookerjee, 2020-03-20 Dear friend and FELLOW pull-up ENTHUSIAST, If there EVER was an exercise that lends itself to unending awe, speculation - and AMAZEMENT (at being performed RIGHT) - it is the mighty PULL-UP. If there EVER was an exercise that builds strength in your upper body to near LEGENDARY King Kong like levels - it is the ALMIGHTY pull-up. If there EVER, EVER was ONE exercise that you would want to MASTER - in all it's forms, shapes and guises - it is this - the PULL-UP! If you want gorilla like traps - and FOREARMS - and a mighty, rugged, MUSCULAR chest - and lat spread that looks like you'd need to turn around sideways to get into the average door - you need to get good - VERY good indeed - at ONE exercise - the PULL-UP! If there EVER was an exercise that built outrageous abdominal STRENGTH - insane twelve pack like definition - and got rid of fat SUPER QUICK - all over your upper body - it is well - I think you've guessed it. If there ever was, ... ah, but while I could write several tomes on the pull-up and still NOT be done, I think you get the drift.Pull-ups, my friend are not only the most complete ADVANCED upper body exercise there is - but they are also one of the misunderstood, badly performed (kipping - ugh!) and awe inspiring exercises out there. Every man wants to be able to bang out at least 10 pull-ups EFFORTLESSLY in letter perfect form, but lets face it. Most modern day men (I use quotes for a damned good reason) would do well to hang on to the chinning bar for any length of time - let alone with the right GRIP - and as for performing a pull-up - or half pull-up - or quarter? Well, my friend - the VAST majority of modern day men (again, I use quotes for a reason) would be unable to even muster up the strength to pull their saggy, bloated asses up even an inch or two (without straining a tricep or two - or more).And most modern day men that TRY to do pull-ups (as opposed to actually DO even half a REAL pull-up) remain sore for DAYS after their first attempt. Sounds familiar, doesn't it? Yeah. I thought so....! Wouldnt YOU want to be lean and mean - a fighting MACHINE - like the soliders in the Marines and elite forces are around the world? Would you NOT want the ability to take punches to your midsection from PROFESSIONAL hitters - - and have them bounce off ya like they were nothing. As a friend of mine once told me, I'd be wasting my time by hitting there! Would you not want the twelve pack - and corrugated CORE - and extreme upper body ape like strength and definition that most men can only DREAM of? Of course you would. WHAT THIS TUTORIAL CONTAINS - The path breaking Pull-ups from DUD to STUD - - within a matter of WEEKS - - a course that truly HAS brought folks from zero to hero level at pull-ups - - in RECORD TIME. The torch bearing ADVANCED COURSE ON pull-ups - - Pull-ups from STUD to SUPER STUD - - that has turned previous fit folks into FREAKS of nature, my friend - with ape like upper body strength and black smith like IRONMONGER stylegrip that the average man can only dream of - and MARVEL at. And as if that wasn't enough, there is also a FAQ section on pull-ups - - which addresses ALL the most commonly asked questions that folks have on pull-ups. I guarantee you - you ain't gonna find a more complete compilation on FAQ's (in terms of pull-ups) ANYWHERE ELSE. In fact this alone probably justifies more than at least half the price of the course, if I were to be very frank and brutally honest with ya! Grab it now, my friend - it truly IS a one of kind tutorial out there - - and combined with the FAQ section, it truly IS the - BEST - I repeat - VERY BEST course out there on pull-ups - I challenge you to prove me otherwise! To your success, Rahul Mookerjee |

| are pull ups compound exercises: The PE Diet Ted Naiman, William Shewfelt, 2020-06-10 The only difference between the HEALTHIEST people on earth, and the LEAST HEALTHY? DIET and EXERCISE. All of us WANT to achieve optimum wellness, but not all of us know how. There are some basic levers that drive health in one of two directions: towards perfection, or towards chronic degenerative disease. If you understand the principles that govern your physiology, you can achieve complete mastery over your own body composition and become the best possible version of yourself. The P: E Diet is the SIMPLEST and MOST PRACTICAL diet and exercise book ever written. Once you understand the core tenets of your biology, you will know HOW to increase your lean mass while decreasing your fat mass-and you will know WHY it works. The P: E Diet breaks down every single dietary strategy into one incredibly simple metric: PROTEIN versus ENERGY. The protein to energy ratio explains EVERY SINGLE DIET PHENOMENON. The P: E Diet breaks down the cause of the obesity epidemic and the solution using this one powerful weapon. This is not 'paleo' or 'keto' or 'low carb' or 'low fat' or 'plants versus animals' or 'calorie counting'-instead this is one MASTER CONCEPT that explains the success of EVERY SINGLE DIETARY STRATEGY out there. This book completely TRANSCENDS ALL OF THE DIET CAMPS and explains why they ALL offer some value-and once you understand this underlying principle, you unlock EVERY DIET. The P: E Diet explains EXACTLY why FOOD CHOICE is everything - once you choose WHAT to eat, your body will tell you HOW MUCH to eat. This approach teaches you how to eat INTUITIVELY to achieve your goals, without unnecessary tracking or micromanaging quantity. The exercise portion of this book is just as revelatory: all you need for the optimum adaptive response to exercise is to generate MAXIMUM TENSION in your muscles for the MAXIMUM TIME possible. All exercise can be broken down into three exercise motions: PUSH, PULL, and LEGS. This requires NO EQUIPMENT WHATSOEVER and can be accomplished with bodyweight only. By maximizing INTENSITY and FREQUENCY you can build muscle with absolute MINIMUM TIME. Packed with hundreds of photos and illustrations, The P: E Diet is a life-changing knowledge bomb that absolutely anyone and everyone should read. |

You'll see a different spin on the same sort of topics - throughout the entire book, and especially the 10 Commandments of Physical Success.And so forth - but now the big question - if I've got 0 Excuses Fitness out there, and if it's doing well, then why the fuss about Fast and Furious Fitness?Why resurrect it, as it were?Well, the answer to that one is simple my friend.It's an old classic - and I love old classics. Whether it be Napoleon Hill's Think and Grow Rich - or Claude Bristol's evergreen The Magic of Believing or even T.N.T. ... by the same author - the fact is I love classics, and- - MORE IMPORTANTLY - - many of YOU do as well!So here it is - the classic from the 0 Excuses annals - Fast and Furious Fitness!What you'll learn from this course - -Solid training information emphasizing good old fashioned HARD work, determination, and dedication.-Training programs that WORK - and are SIMPLE to do - and most importantly, get things done QUICKLY.-How you can build loads of muscle on your calves and thighs, while at the same time building strength and endurance - all within 10 minutes or less!-Build a strong, functional midsection - WITHOUT doing a single crunch!-Develop brute strength throughout your entire back, and upper body (see picture on the right).-How to build huge forearms, and develop the crushing power of an ape while your at it!-The ONE exercise that will build shoulders that have the strength of a male gorilla, and look like they are carved out of granite!-Advice on what sort of diet to follow for best gains-The Ten Commandments of any successful training regimen (or any endeavor) and why you should be following them.-And much, much more.Dive in, and order now - this is indeed a CLASSIC you don't want to miss!

| are pull ups compound exercises: FITNESS CENTRAL - The Reader Rahul Mookerjee, 2020-03-07 Back when I started www.rahulmookerjee.com - - I never, ever thought it would morph into a full time business like it is now. From Fast and Furious Fitness – to Gorilla Grip – to 0 Excuses Fitness – Gumption Galore, and everything else we’ve put out thus far, it’s been a wild wild ride, and it promises to get even better! The comments and feedback we receive on a regular basis via social media and email etc is something that makes it ALL worth it. If there is something that folks love about us, it’s our direct, in your face, NO nonsense style - - not just with regard to fitness instruction, but the 0 Excuses Fitness philosophy as well – as well as our daily fitness tips that we put out on a regular basis that people wake up to every morning! It is THESE fits, and the “rambunctious” ovation to these tips that I put out the first Edition of Fitness Central – then the second – then the third – all in all, a mind boggling 153 fitness tips - - but now (and despite the feedback I’ve gotten), I’ll go one BETTER. Instead of purchasing all three fitness manuals separately, you can now purchase them all as ONE reader - - one giant MOTIVATIONAL fitness package as it were - - with all the same tips as in the three books - - but at a reduced price. Truth be told, I could charge you upwards of $100 for EACH of the fitness books, and you’d still get your money’s value and THEN SOME. Truth be told, even ONE of these tips by themselves is worth their worth in GOLD – spades – mucho dinero – what have you! And truth be told, the BENEFITS you’ll get from following even one of these tips far, far outweighs what you’ll get from following the “staid ole routines” at the gym for years! Now, if you’re with me thus far, and if you’ve cracked open even one of the Fitness Central books, you KNOW the benefits you’ll get from these books. Just in case you aren’t though, and just in case you chance upon this package “first up”, here are (at a glance) some of the benefits you’ll get from this book - - -Finger tip pushups, and what you really need to know about them!-Why the way your muscles “look” aren’t the most important – or even a little bit important. -The skinny on grip strength and building rock solid, coruscating levels of “kung fu” like grip strength. My manuals on grip training do a great job here ... and these tips are but the icing on the cake - - but a much needing icing! -The truth about calluses that most people will NOT tell you. -The one exercise combo that will give you explosive gains all over your upper body. Once you go this route, you’ll never go back … trust me! -How shorter workouts can be just as - - in fact, way more effective than the long, drawn out workouts you’ve been advised to do - - and how they benefit your HEALTH and MINDSET more than you could ever imagine! -How foreign devils in China workout - -and why these workouts are so brutally effective! Yet another one “for the books” as it were … -Why your breath is literally the most important thing you should focus upon during your exercise routine - - and how you can burn fat off your frame almost instantly once you start applying the right breathing techniques. Believe me - - THIS tip alone is something most folks would be happy to drop more than a hundred smackers on to learn! -You’ll learn about my much vaunted and much famous (all over the Internet) hill climb from China, and how it benefited me, and how similar workouts can benefit YOU! -You will learn how to get cardio workouts in like NEVER before – workouts that take less than 15 minutes, and leave you soaked in sweat, burning fat like never before and feeling on TOP of the world! -How to lose weight rapidly – and do it FAST. This is unconventional. You won’t see this information anywhere else. And yet … does it work? You bet your “betsy” it does! And much, much more, my friend. Grab it now - and write back and let me know how you do!! |
| are pull ups compound exercises: Fitness CENTRAL! Rahul Mookerjee, 2018-10-14 If you’re a fitness fanatic, and are truly interested in getting your current levels of strength and conditioning – as well as overall fitness to skyrocket to NEW levels altogether, you’re at the right place! This little manual has something for everyone as it were. If you’re just starting out, and are 300 lbs and looking to DROP weight quick, then this book is a great, great add on to the 0 Excuses Fitness System available through my website. If you’re a seasoned trainee, and are looking to blast past personal best’s in pull-ups - - or handstand pushups - - and assuming you’ve read the manuals I’ve put out on these, you’ll find something that’ll help you here as well! If you’re a grip monster - - or core training fanatic - - I’ll bet you anything you’ll find some new and interesting reads in this book. And so forth. This book truly has something for EVERYONE when it comes to fitness, my friend. My name is Rahul Mookerjee, and I’ve been in the fitness biz for years now. My first book “Fast and Furious Fitness” (currently out of print, but I’m going to bring it back very soon indeed as a “collector’s item both on my website and on Amazon etc) was published in 2011, and it became an instant hit thereafter. Folks were getting tired of spending big bucks at gyms, and getting nowhere. Folks were getting tired of all the hype promised by personal trainers and “booby builders” (most of whom were on the juice) in the gym - - and getting very little in the way of actual muscle or results for the hours they spent in the gym. Not to mention the nagging injuries just kept piling up. The “shoulders that hurt when you lift your arm up”. The nagging lower back pain. Elbow trouble … and of course, wrist and neck pain galore. None of this improved to any great degree with the traditional training methods folks were being raised on, and Fast and Furious Fitness was a breath of fresh air in that regard. And now, I'm bringing you all these years of training and wisdom in an easy to digest collated format that you'll love - and want to read over and over and OVER again for motivation, inspiration, and information galore! What you’ll learn from these tips -Finger tip pushups, and what you really need to know about them! -Why the way your muscles “look” aren’t the most important – or even a little bit important. -The skinny on grip strength and building rock solid, coruscating levels of “kung fu” like grip strength. My manuals on grip training do a great job here ... and these tips are but the icing on the cake - - but a much needing icing! -The truth about calluses that most people will NOT tell you. -The one exercise combo that will give you explosive gains all over your upper body. Once you go this route, you’ll never go back … trust me! -Achieving the magic 500 in terms of pushups - - and more. -Getting to 500 UPHILL steps a day, and much, much more. -Why being on the heavy side isn't necessarily a disadvantage - and could even be considered an ADVANTAGE! This tip alone is worth it's weight in SPADES, my friend. -Facts on the handstand you likely never thought of, much less considered. -Why you aren't losing weight - despite seemingly doing all the right things. This one tip alone will boggle your mind - dive in, and you'll see what I mean! -How to work the legs with ... get this ... PUSHUPS! -How simple MOVEMENT done correctly can shed more fat than ever before -Can you save your own life if you had to? This little gem of a tip will get even the most seasoned of gym gorillas THINKING ... that is for sho! -What is the ideal length of time to exercise (hint - it's NOT what you've been told). And much, much more, my friend ... Dive in -- and be sure and write me back at info@0excusesfitness.com with your thoughts - we love hearing from YOU! Best, Rahul Mookerjee |
