A "clean pull" is the pull that is part of the clean. However, it does not end in "clean" (a catfish is a type of fish, not a cat), so it is not a clean or power clean, as the bar is never racked in the shoulders. Also, a power clean must be caught and racked with the thighs always at or above parallel.

The Critical Bench Program is a program that is designed to quickly increase how much a person can bench press. It is supposed to take only 11 weeks to complete.

The squat is a lower-body exercise in weight training, which is also used as a lift in powerlifting. The main emphasis is on the quadriceps muscle group, and on the glutes (buttocks), but it also involves the hamstrings, the calves and the lower back. The squat is often called "the king of exercises" because it "is capable of inducing more and faster muscle growth than any other exercise" (Dr. Fred Hatfield).

The squat is performed by squatting down with a weight held across the upper back, and then standing up straight again. Proper technique is critical, otherwise serious injuries can occur. The back must be kept straight�not rounded�otherwise excess strain will be placed on the lower back. Lifting belts are often used to help support the lower back.

Experts are divided on how squats can be done safely. Some believe the squat must not go too deep, i.e. beyond the point where the thighs are parallel to the floor, otherwise excess strain will be placed on the knees. Others believe that thighs actually touching calves is acceptable, provided the knees do not travel farther forward than the toes. Still others believe that the knees may travel slightly past the toes. It does seem well agreed upon that the knees should not travel more than a few inches beyond the toes, and that they should stay in line with the toes, not buckling inwards or outwards.

The feet should be flat on the floor, with even distribution of weight between the heel and the ball of the foot. Individuals without sufficient ankle flexibility may try putting a board beneath the heels to artificially improve their flexibility. Similarly, a wedge shaped board may be used, allowing the entire foot to remain in contact with a single surface, improving stability over the first technique. Both methods are a short-term fix and require that regular stretching and a full range of motion should be employed to maintain and increase flexibility to the desired levels with the ultimate desire that the board's use be eliminated. In the sport of weightlifting, a specifically designed squat shoe that has a heel elevated by an encased wooden block is commonly worn.

Heavy barbell squats are best performed in the presence of one or more spotters, who can safely return the barbell to the squat rack at the end of the set if the weight trainer is unable to do so.

The squat has a number of variants, which include:

* The barbell squat.

* The Smith machine squat.

* In the hack squat, the barbell is held just behind the legs.

* The pistol squat, a freestanding one-legged squat where the non-lifting leg is held straight ahead.

* The split squat, an assisted one-legged squat where the non-lifting leg is placed, at the ankle, on a knee-high platform behind the lifter.

* In the overhead squat, the barbell is held overhead at full extension in a wide-arm snatch grip.

* In the front squat, the weight is held across the upper chest.

* The dumbbell squat, with dumbbells either positioned in parallel near the shoulders, or hanging at the sides.

* The Hindu squat is a squat done without weight where the heels are raised and the weight is placed on the toes. The knees track far past the toes. This is a controversial exercise, and it criticized for being damaging, evidencing the knee problems historically experienced by Indian wrestlers who did hundreds daily.

Individuals who find that they cannot safely perform the squat are advised to try the leg press instead.

The leg press is a weight training exercise in which the individual pushes a weight away from them using their legs. The term leg press also refers to the apparatus used to perform this exercise. The leg press can be used to evaluate an athlete's overall lower body strength.

There are two main types of leg press:

* The diagonal or vertical 'sled' type leg press. Cast iron weight disks (plates) are attached directly to the sled, which is mounted on rails. The user sits below the sled and pushes it upward with their feet. These machines normally include adjustable safety brackets that prevent the user from being trapped under the weight. A common mistake is to allow the sled to move all the way down, which may strain the knees and lower back. It should be lowered only until the knees are bent at a right angle.

* The 'cable' type leg press, or 'seated leg press', commonly found on multigyms. The user sits upright and pushes forward with their feet onto a plate that is attached to the weight stack by means of a long steel cable.

Muscle groups

The leg press works the following muscle groups:

* Quadriceps

* Hamstrings

* Gluteus maximus

Varying the angle between the sled and the backrest and/or the position of the feet on the plate puts more emphasis on one or the other muscle group.

Being a compound exercise, the leg press is unquestionably more effective than isolation exercises like the leg extension or the leg curl. It is in turn less effective than the squat, which works the muscles of the lower back as well. Due to the safety concerns associated with the squat, however, the leg press is often used as the primary lower body exercise.

Bodybuilding, especially for people with poor self-esteem, is highly rewarding. You get measurable results from measurable effort, a sense of control, and the endorphin highs associated with any form of strenuous athletics.

That all depends on genetics. I am a natural bodybuilder and proud of it, and I plan on always being natural. Since my first contest in 03' I weighed 148 on stage, and my last contest 168 on stage in late 06. So I've put on 20lbs of muscle in roughly 3 years. Now If I had been eating correctly and training to my fullest potentil the entire 7 years I've been training, I might've made even more gains. Ultimately it boils down to how much you're eating, if your training correctly for you body, and if you're getting enough down time for your body to recover enough to put on muscle. I personally know people who've taken anabolic steroids and they didn't eat right and they made minimal gains. So it's not a simple cut and dry answer. There are many things that factor into it, and if you are missing even one piece of that puzzle, then you won't meet your full potential. Again, it boils down to gentics, but from what I've read, and learned if your natural, training properly and eating right as well, you can expect to put on between 5-10lbs a year. another example would be that the very best natural bodybuilders in the world walk on stage in the low, usually very low, 200's. The very biggest guys on the planet, those that use steroids, walk onstage at over 300 lbs. Lou Ferrigno once walked onstage in the early 90's at nearly 320 pounds! So obviously, you cant get nearly as big without steroids as you can by using them.

When it comes to weight lifting, height and weight have very little influence of how much you can lift. Its going to be down to your muscle strength. If you are a beginner at weight lifting any Fitness Instructor/Trainer will tell you to start on a low weight and to gradually build it up to the level that best suits your needs. It is not recommended that you try and lift as much as possible as you can easily damage the muscles in your arms, not to mention the strain you will be puttin on your back.

When choosing the amount of weight to use, the main goal is to lift a weight that is heavy enough so that you reach "failure" (or very close to it) at the end of each set. Failure simply means that you should be struggling by the last one or two repetitions, and should not be able to perform more than the alloted number of repetitions for that set

for example: If you are aiming for 8-10 repetitions, the weight should become very difficult to lift once you reach between 8 and 10. You can then do as many sets as you require, I find an ideal number is about 3 sets.

You should get a weight that can only be lifted between 8-10 repetitions, which is considered the ideal range for building muscle. Also you need to make sure you are getting enough protein, prefferably before and after any weight training you do.

There is a good article(link below) on when to take protein during the day and before/after your workout.

I hope you find this information helpful and remember, dont try and lift as much as much as you find pyschically possible. You can end up with permanent damage to your muscles.

Ironman powerlifting is a term used to describe a push/pull meet that has either a strict curl or overhead press event added to it so that is now a three lift meet. Not to be confused with a regular powerlifting meet which has the squat, benchpress, and deadlift.

Another version of the Ironman includes overhead press, deadlift, and strict curl again making it a three lift meet.

* 1980 - 3rd * 1981 - 2nd * 1982 - 4th * 1983 - 1st * 1984 - 3rd * 1985 - 1st * 1986 - 2nd

Everyone is different. It depends on how long an individual has been training, how naturally strong they are, what (if any) steroids/artificial agents they are using, their diet etc. All this aside, the average Joe should be able to bench the bar (20kg) plus about 25kg on each side for good set of 8 to 12 reps after about a 6 months of guided training.

carlisle, he is called Nathan brown

Mitch, you can't find him on youtube or google because he's a gang member. But he's alot stronger than you think. He leg presses over 5ton

litres is volume, ton is weight.

but if it's water then

40 x 25 litres = 1000 kg (1 ton)
