Does weight lifting make you not grow as much as you would have?
Well, my question is..
Does weight lifting, NOT power lifting make your not grow as much as your originally should have? Many people say yes it does affect your growth others say no it does not effect your growth. So which one is true?
Its rubbish, lifting weights has no bearing on your natural growth other than an increase in mussel mass as a result.
Healthy regards,

look how he cries for his motherHow should weight lifting gloves properly fit?
I want to buy some weight lifting gloves but I am unsure about the size. Should they be skin tight or have some slack? Also, should the glove stop below or at the knuckle?
I tried on out a couple pairs. The medium size was kind of tight and small and the large seems a a bit loose and long. I am not sure which ones to get.
Any advice?
You’re protecting your palms, so it honestly is more for whatever you’re more comfortable with. Too slack and you may run the risk of the weights sliding, too tight and you may not be able to grasp your hand firmly enough.

Will jogging while starting weight lifting make me lose the muscle I’m trying to build?
So I am 6′4", 165lbs and want to start exercising. I was planning on doing some weight lifting and than every other day go for a jog. I told a friend who is exercising already and he said that was a bad idea because the muscle I will be building will be burned away from the jogging I’ll be doing.
It doesn’t make sense to me, but is this true? Am I going to have to lift weights for awhile, and then I can throw in some jogging?
Hi Vodoo…if you want to jog 2 or 3 times a week, go ahead. It will not "burn away" your muscle unless you are jogging excessively every day. Drink a protein shake after your weight lifting workouts too, that will help feed and preserve your muscle.

Is the 5×5 weight lifting rouine good for MMA training? If not what routine will keep me flexible?
I wanna start weight lifting like the MMA fighters do. Is this 5×5 routine good for having powerfull punches but also keep me flexible? Also is the 5×5 routine for all weight lifting excersises or just upperbody?
5×5 is not For bulking up , 1-5 reps whit 90% of what you can lift 1 time is to build maximum power whitout gaining much weight or for explosive power (but then you need to use 50-60% of what you can lift 1 time). If you train like this you need to combine this whit explosive training like sprinting ect ( if you train maximum power ) + your mma training , trust me you wont become slow.
Before starting training maximum power you need a base so start of lifting the 1st 4 weeks whit weights that you can lift pretty easy to get a good base and learning the exercises this is important to avoid injuries.
You can also train for muscle endurance , this the most used form of lifting in mma (in my opinion the best for martial arts ) here you do 20+ reps and you use 30-50 % of what you can lift 1 time.
And yes you can do 5×5 for each body part ( best is to do exercises where you use allot of muscle at once so not to much isolated exercises like bicep curl ect..)
:::::::::::::
Maximum power :
- reps 1-5
- sets 3-4
- rest between each set 3-8 min
- 90% of 1 rm(what you can lift 1 time)
Explosive
- reps 1-5
- sets 2-5
- rest 2-4 min
- 50-60 %
Endurance
- reps: 20+
- sets 1-3
- rest 1 min
- 30-50%
Just stretch daily and you keep and get more flexibility

What basic weight lifting exercises should I do?
I’m a 29 year old male in decent shape. 5′ 10" 205 lbs. I have a curl bar with weights and two dumb bells. Plus, I also have a cheap home gym with a military press and butterfly attachment. So, what are the basic exercises I should be doing and what weight range should I be lifting at. Also, how many reps and sets? Thanks much.
Use compound movements that use more than one joint and exercise many muscles at one time. Isolation movements are very time consuming and don’t have as much athletic carry-over value.
A whole body workout:
Military press
Pull-ups or bent row
Bench press or pushups or dips
Squat or deadlift or lunge
Back extension, straight-leg dead lift, or leg curl
Favorite ab exercise
(Optional: Do curls at the end if you have energy)
Caution with the butterfly movement, that irritates the shoulders of many people. Given the position of the shoulder it doesn’t provide much of any carryover value to athletics.
Starting weights will vary depending on the exercise. Begin with a weight that you can do 10 reps without strain or undue fatigue. Increase the weight a little every few workouts to get stronger.
A beginner can use almost any rep and set scheme for a few months and get good results. Three sets of 10 reps is fine.
After the first few months, your body will be prepared to tolerate greater intensity and you can increase the number of sets and use heavier weights so that 5 or 6 reps is difficult.

How to keep your weight lifting progress in check?
Hey guys. I’m into weight lifting and wanna get back into it. I’ve been lost though on how to keep things on track. Like being organize with it and I don’t know how to right things down… Like Writing it on paper. I could do it in my head but not on paper. Is there a program out there or something that can keep track of the progress I’m doing?
you want to do 1 core exercise everyday, lower body or upper.
Do upper 1 day and fthen lower the next.
Upper body cores could include:
-bench press, closed grip
-bench press, open grip
-power clean
Lower body Cores could include:
-parallel squat
-box squat
-hex bar or straight bar deadlift
Go on a 4 week scedule: (reps per set)
1st: 10,10,10
2nd: 5, 3, 1+
3rd: 10, 8, 6+
4th: 5, 3, 1
When you do less reps, go up in weight. (ie. 2nd week, you may do 100, 115, then 130; week 1 you may do 95, 95, 95)
The above could only apply to core exercises, or could also apply to auxillary as well.
Auxillaries are exercises that work specific muscle groups. You want to do many of these each day.
When doing an upper body core lift, do upper body auxillaries exercises. Dont mix upper and lower body.
For auxillaries, most people do 3 set of 10 reps.
You could write everything down in a note book. Every week try to increase in weight.
Whats a good weight lifting routine that I can do at home?
I am 16 years old, male and need a weight lifting routine that will build up my arms, chest and shoulders.
Preferably one that does not require a gym weight room. I honestly do not have the time, with dancing, work, and school and my existing exersize routine. (Mostly cardio and Abs)
I can purchase dumbells and other weights and do what i need to at home. But please do not suggest diet pills or any of that crap. Thanks for the help.
Go to each room of the house. Do 50 reps from wall to wall with the vacuum cleaner. then do a sprint from the kitchen to the outside trash cans with the kitchen trash.

How much weight am I suppose to gain in weight lifting?
I started weight lifting about 3 months ago, and already I seen myself gained 10 pounds. Is that a normal weight to gain, or am I also eating too much? I’m 6′, so that makes me a tall guy. I started out not knowing anything about weight lifting, but now I could bench about 225 max and the same with squat. So, could someone tell me if I gained 10 pounds of fat over the 3 months, or muscle, or both?
You absolutly gained muscle.
After only three months of training you made some phenominal gains in strength.
You’ll gain the most muscle when you first start training. That’s why it’s important to stick to it your first year.
The first year is when your going to build your base and put on the most muscle.
After that window of opportunity the gains will come just not as fast.
CONGRATULATIONS!!
Good luck

What food should i not eat while lifting weight/building muscle?
I need help, i cant find any sites that can help me with finding out what foods i should not eat while lifting weights/building muscle. This is for my school project, im explaining weight lifting.
Avoid sugar as much as possible. Unfortunately it’s put in a lot of foods during manufacture, like bread for instance and baked beans. So eat plenty of fresh foods, meat and fish, and fruit and vegetables. Give the processed foods a miss if you can, and always read the labels to see what is in the food before you buy. Sugar causes muscle weakness.

Is it smart to go running after weight lifting?
I am a Track Runner/ Football player and we started weight lifting for Football. Is it okay to do sprints afterwards. Will my muscles get smaller after this. I drink like a protein shake, but is it good running after weight lifting?
Yes, it’s ok, the general theory is if you run before weight lifting, then you won’t be able to left as much or as long, you muscles fatigue faster, running after lifting weights affects your run also.
But it’s a great way to get fit, combining the 2, I do it at least 3 times a week…
How much calories do you lose from weight lifting in an hour?
I’m curious, I’m always tired of doing treadmill then weight lifting, I want to build mass muscle. I want to know how much calories do you lose from weight lifting to your limit, is it higher than doing it on treadmill or any exercise machine?
roughly 500cals but it depends on your weight and height to start with, but it doesn’t change much.

What natural foods should I eat after weight lifting?
I read that it is good to eat right after weight training, but I don’t want to use protein shakes. What foods should I be eating? Also, what should I eat before weight lifting?
My goal is trying to bulk up.
the main thing to do is focus on your overall diet. So some good foods would be
Eggs
Rice
Potatoes
Green tea
Salmon
Milk
Pasta
turkey
Eat 5-7 times a day and always an hour before. One thing to focus on is your protein intake after your work out, as you will need to replace that
Peanut butter and jelly/jam sandwiches in brown bread are great for that.
