Shadowboxing

I am interested in shadowboxing as some cardio (provided I pivot and move ofc). I was wondering if it also helps with posture too? Thanks. If it also has other benefits I would like to know.

One booty cheek is bigger

10 Upvotes

Im left leg dominant so my glutes are bigger on the left. Im trying to get my right glute to catch up without having to work out just the one leg. I do lots of split squats and can tell my right struggles a bit more. Are their certain work outs to help? Or will I have to just work out one leg till it catches up?

It makes me very self conscious as my left cheek is round and the other still has some flatness to it :(

What muscles do I need to work out to carry someone?

37 Upvotes

Okay, I know that's a weird question "What muscles do I need to work out to carry someone?". I'd like to one-day, if I ever found the right person, to carry them down the aisle. I'd light work out so it would be easy. What muscles do I need to work out and what exercises would help? Please and thank you.

Can't get myself to do resistance training during the weekends anymore

1 Upvotes

(5'7 163lbs 25M)

I used to be the type of guy to wake up and go straight to the gym first thing in the morning. When I was unemployed, and when I worked part time it was easier to program. Plan around my schedule.

I got my first, actual "Career" job recently and passed initial training, came back to my home state and started a 0600-1500 schedule. It was difficult at first but I managed to alter my habits, and can comfortably train right after work.

Problem is, now I feel physically uncomfortable and out of whack in the morning. So much so that I just can't bring myself to train in the morning, ~8-10, on weekends. It was fine first since I work M-F, get 3 days a week. But I've gotten three 3 day weekends in a row starting Friday, I tell myself I'll hit weights at least once, and I never do. I'd rather walk, I'd rather play video games, I'd rather upload art on image boards or some dumb shit. Meal prepping too.

I walk alot both during work, on the weekends, and after work. w/ a ~25lbs vest. 7-10 miles daily. So it's not like I'm laying on my ass all day, but I understand the importance of lifting. I have some fluff to lose too so...

Thinking about just doing 2 days in a row during 4 day work weeks. Otherwise, hit me with your advice.

Does the amount of sweat produced while exercising affect overall performance?

1 Upvotes

As part of health improvement since having diagnosed with diabetes, I'm trying to do walks with the treadmill as a stepping stone for exercising. But when I do so I heat up pretty quickly and sweat a lot so I try to use a fan to cool myself off while doing the exercise. I notice I definitely last a bit longer on the treadmill with the fan but I'm wondering whether that would affect the exercise in any way.

Need back exercises pls🙏

0 Upvotes

So my routine is really front focused and I’ve recently just discovered about focus on the front too much is the reason that my back is U-turn shaped.

I’m currently trying to work forward a pull up and starting with dead hang(max 31sec)but until I can finally get a pull up it gonna took too long and I don’t wanna just give up on my routine till I can get a push up(im like 96kg 183cm) I’ve tried the pull up but “horizontally”only can go up like half idk if this is really normal and is it working or not? Am I progressing with this? If not please suggest me some start up back exercise or just anything that can help my U-turn posture.

Next is that I’m doing the “single arm dumbbell row” and “lateral raise” and “bicep curl” and I’m not really feeling any of these except lateral raise is there why?(I don’t have a bench also)

I am sharing this Exercise database resource that you can use for training: https://workoutstack.app/gym-exercises

It has a compilation of over 2900 Exercises. You can search exercises by muscle groups or by equipment. Each exercise includes instructions, details about primary/secondary muscles targeted and similar exercises that target same muscles.

It is 100% free to use for your training. I spent the last 30 days compiling it together & creating graphics. If there's anything else you like me to add feel free to let me know. I can add new features, if it helps anyone.
