Heart Rate Variability Training
by Jonathan Pope and Craig Weller | Tue, Jan 31, 2012

Go heavy or go home is a good rule of thumb, but wouldn't it be helpful to know if you should skip the workout before you got to the gym? Here's how.

Leo Solis: I really dont understand the obsession with insects, after all fish are also ectothermic (cold blooded) and reproduce exponentialy too ( A100g tilapia can lay 1000 eggs. Prolificity is proportional to size), being cold blooded allow fish to have really awesome convertion efficiency rates, beacuase they dont have to waste engergy in thermogenesis wich constitutes most of the metabolic expenditure in endoterms (birds and mammals).

PhilGER: Yep, for the 6-10rep-range kinda bb delt work-if hypertrophy was the focus- but most of my 25 years with weight training for OH I did jerk, squat jerk, split jerk, PP and the good ol' standing press.... and I like one-arm clean and press with heavy dumbbell doing singles alternating the arm after each til I can`t do another...

ironvigor: Started this on Thursday. I hate you Wendler... but in a good way.

Jesse Irizarry: @PhilGER - I absolutely agree with you. You can even see the boards slipping a little which is something I definitely don't reccommend but with heavier weight I would never let that happen.. I've used push press and jerk variations for primary lifts as well (keeping it in the 60-80% 1RM range) and in that case I would do the dumbbell work either on the same day or 2 days after. Really appreciate the input. You prefer seated over standing for dumbbell as well?

PhilGER: @Jesse-yes, assistance means a spotter to hold the boards on your chest-but as you wrote you didn`t use heavy load in the video and just wanted to demonstrate the practise-in any other case I would always habe someone to spot/hold the boards... I like seated strict overhead press with barbell or dumbbell for 6-10 reps for hypertrophy and dynamic work like PP and jerk for 2-5 reps...thanks

briansays: Will do! My RDL has always been pretty high on my list so I like the added variation.
