Form Checklist

1. Stand with your feet slightly wider than shoulder-width apart.

 

2. Position your toes so that they are pointed out slightly. The angle should match that of your thighs, or the toes and knees should be pointed out to the same degree.

 

3. Cross your arms and place your hands on the opposite shoulder (or as seen in the pictures, arms in front of you)

 

 

4. Begin the descent by bending the knees. Do not allow the knees to pass in front of the toes.

 

5. Slightly lean forward at the waist as you descend.

 

 

6. Descend until your thighs are parallel to the floor, then begin ascending.

 

7. Repeat rep cycle until fatigued or until rep goals have been achieved.

 

 

8. Maintain a neutral arch in the spine at all times, especially on the descent. This may be helped by keeping your chest out.

Get Thoroughly Acquainted with Your Food for the Best Weight Loss Results 

What do you think of that diet where you eat certain foods based on your blood type?

 

I’ve always been told to get a six- pack you need to do a lot of abs work with high reps. Would you agree?

 

Do I need supplements to lose weight?

 

Is it possible to lose weight and gain muscle at the same time?

 

I’ve got fat located in the area of my body where my arm meets my shoulder, and I can’t get rid of it.  Are there any exercises in particular that would help improve that? Or what about any spot reducing supplements?

 

I know I should be having some protein and carbs after a weights workout, but what about after cardio? I've heard that you should wait 2 hours before eating.

 

You mentioned the benefits of scheduling a "cheat meal" into your eating program at least once per week. Is there a best time to eat a cheat meal?

 

Should I be counting my grams of fat, sugar, and calories?

 

What can I do to flatten my lower abs? I've been doing crunches and hanging leg raises for the last year, but nothing seems to help.
