H.I.T.? Yates?

[iamblue]

warnups increase blood flow the more blood flow you have in your muscles the more you contract! I dont know where you get your info on NO WARMUPS either! I dont see joggers get up then jump outta bed then say see you later go jogging 26miles they do some kind of warmup. Same for anything else you gotta warmup! Yates did do warmups have you ever seen his training regimen he said WARMUPS. I dont eve know why you are even here talking about machine guns in the machine? WTF is that about? There is no scientific basis either for you HIT or Yates program. Nothing is legit what works for you wont work for the next person or all us be on HIT or YATES!

You have serious logic issues. You aren't even on the same subject as the rest of us. Just run along little troll.

These are all typical responses by the HIT followers, bashing those that don't agree with them with childish insults. Run along child your nonsense is not needed here. Go stick your fucking nose nose back in that book, you should have plenty of time, since you are never in the gym.

either way dude you still did not prove anything scientific opening your mouth. I asked about your so called, "NO WARMUPS" and yet you backlashed me with some stupid comment. Im asking for your scientific backup please. Im not trying to be rude and Oh, i dont live in a cave sorry. If I did I would need a laptop with Intel Centrino WiFi wireless hookup to the net, but im hard wired to cable line.

iamblue........obviously you can not carry on an inteligent conversation without resorting to childish name calling and talking shit.

This is not the conversation forum where anything goes, we take these serious forums seriously, so please grow up and behave like a civilized mature person.....or as has already been eluded to, it might be best you leave voluntarily, or else someone else might make that decision for you.

We encourage mature discussion and learning, but shit like you're pulling here will not be tolerated.

GOT IT ???

There is no benefit to a warm up set, in fact doing those extra sets both ruins the intensity of your real set as well as increase your chances for arthritis later in life.

Stretching before and after each session is vital. Stretching warms up the body and prepares muscles to do the activity you want to do. Neglecting to stretch can/will lead to injuries. A more flexible muscle is capable of exerting a greater force and will not fatigue as easily. Improving flexibility increases your range of motion, which allows you to react to the demands of working out/powerlifting. Along with increased explosiveness and speed, more flexible muscles lead to less chance of injury.

IMO: It's the most important thing to do. Not only does that get the muscles ready to do your workout program, but it also acts WELL as a cool-down after you exercise, stretching is important here as well. For decreased "muscle Soreness" stretching at any time will increase blood flow to the muscles and can relieve tightness.

Important consideration: One very common mistake is stretching before muscles are warmed-up. It is important to stretch after your muscles are warm (after blood has circulated through them). Never stretch a cold muscle. First warm up. A warm-up should be done for at
least 5-10 minutes at a low intensity. Usually, the warm-up is done by doing the same activity (light weights) or some cardio for legs. After you've warmed-up for 5-10 minutes at a relatively low intensity, your muscles should be warm. To prevent injury and to improve your performance, you should stretch the primary muscles used in the warm up before proceeding to your w/o.......ALWAYS!!!

Think of your muscles as rubber bands. When you over-stretch a rubber band, it snaps. The same will happen to your muscles. So, when you’re stretching during warm-up, go as far as you can without straining. Breathe into the stretch for at least ten seconds, and then see if it will go a little further. Remember that you shouldn’t bounce when stretching, either. That only increases your chance of injury.

A warm up is intended to raise the body temperature and prepare a player physiologically and psychologically to compete in a competitive game. Research has suggested that the optimum duration of the warm up period, before flexibility or functional activities are undertaken, should be between 10 and 15 minutes. This should consist of a gradual increase in intensity. A warm up at this intensity has the effect of allowing an increase in the range of movement of the joints and improving aerobic performance, along with becoming more "flexible".

A warm up produces a 2 to 3 degree rise in body temperature that can last for 45 minutes. This increase in temperature leads to beneficial changes in body tissue:

The heating effect allows muscles and tendons to become more extensible. This makes stretching muscles and tendons easier and more effective. Research has suggested that this decreases the incidence of muscle strains.

There is an increase in blood flow, which means that there is an increase in oxygen to muscle tissue.

There is an increase in the temperature of the blood, which changes the partial pressure of blood gases. This means that more oxygen leaves the blood and enters muscle tissue.

The increase in temperature causes a rise in enzyme and metabolic activity. This improves the efficiency of muscle contraction.....

It's impossible to prove a negative. Simple logic should have told you that before asking such a stupid question.

lol... sorry big guy but i go by real world experience, not by what some asshole who happened to have good genetics and the smarts to market himself has to say. please, dont come back until you can put up an intelligent arguement. I can prove my theories, can you?

ok...so H.I.T. is crap???

GameOn, I'll leave it like this. If you are seeing good progress with what you are currently doing, stick to it. If you are unhappy with your current progress and you feel that something needs to be changed, by all means, try out H.I.T. It can't hurt, since there really is no right or wrong... Bodybuilding is all about trial and error. See what works for yourself and stick to it. Good luck bro

Alright! Thanks for the info...I think Ill stick to what works for me..I have not tried H.I.T. and I dont think I will.
