Rusevelt Posted October 21, 2008 Report Share Posted October 21, 2008 ok but muscles are heavy...so you need to take care about thatwhat do you think about tony jaa? The density within muscle fibres is not relevant, the power and strength within the fibres is ie; go back to that video clip of the powerlifter static jumping that wooden horse on page-2. Leopards weigh approx 400-500lbs yet they are capable of static leaping 9ft high. How much you weigh has no bearing on how much kinetic power the human body can potentially generate through any form of training/conditioning weather is via gym work, riding, deep breathing excerises. even water can increase your body strength by around 10-20% for a short period but youve gotta drink ridiculous amounts to feel any benefits of rock hard muscle. drink 8 glasses/500ml of water every 10-15mins for 45-60mins then stop drinking. if you tense your biceps, it should feel rock hard. it is during this window that you should ride hard for as long as you can till you break sweat because if you don't, you'll start pissing yourself every 15-20mins when you stop to take a breather. oh yeah Tony Jaa in Warrior King is amazing, how bloody high is that lampost light-bulb he kicks 11-12ft Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmks88 Posted October 23, 2008 Report Share Posted October 23, 2008 #### i think i have overtrained again.....i should take a few days of rest.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neotropolis Posted October 24, 2008 Report Share Posted October 24, 2008 I do quite a lot of weights, but i have found that since I started trials again about 2-3 months ago (after a space of about 5-6 years out of it) the muscles in my forearms have increased in size dramatically. Because of this I would say that, yes its good to do weights and stuff, but definitely the best way is jus to do more and more trials.

Joe_Elding Posted October 24, 2008 Report Share Posted October 24, 2008 But where you doing any forearm specific exercises? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sponge Posted October 24, 2008 Report Share Posted October 24, 2008 I just go B-Boying (Or "breakdancing" as it's commercially known as... wrong though)No other sport works out as many muscles in your body as this does. I feel the strength and balance benefits already; as well as better hand-eye coordination and reflexes. Better flexibility too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J Trials 31 Posted October 31, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2008 I used to do 9000 press ups a day + 10,000 sit ups.I would throw up for about an hour if I did that. That's pretty crazy though. How long did it take you to work out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pietro Posted October 31, 2008 Report Share Posted October 31, 2008 I used to do 9000 press ups a day + 10,000 sit ups.WIMP, I used to do 25 megazillion squats/second with my car and trials bike on my shoulders....

tmks88 Posted October 31, 2008 Report Share Posted October 31, 2008 Has anyone tried that whey protein stuff? Does it actually work? And how does it work?yes, i got some of FAST AC-C and FAST Muscle+ to try out, these are mainly for recovery and they do workbut at first you need to have a good nutrition plan, otherwise all those supplements are a waste of moneyi can see that some people have some hcore stamina! if you can do a 2000kg squat just once and youre about 75-80kg then you shoul be able to sidehop about 2.5m Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damon W Posted October 31, 2008 Report Share Posted October 31, 2008 Has anyone tried that whey protein stuff? Does it actually work? And how does it work?Ive been taking whey protein for around 8 months, its to aid muscle recovery and growth after training, i usualy take a shake out riding with me to stop hunger pangs too it works by delivering protein (which is broken down into amino acids)to torn muscle tissue, wich inturn, makes youre body OVER compensate for it, and develope new muscle tissueisnt a miricle worker though, but it works Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

*Koxx hydroxx 2 Jack * Posted November 1, 2008 Report Share Posted November 1, 2008 Hi mate ,a lot of trials is all on your forearm so get a bar weight lock your arms out in front of you and roll your wrists up and down.
