I'm planning on going to my first spin class soon. I usually exercise at home and have never done any sort of group class before. My thought was that I could just try one and see how it goes because it might be something I'll end up enjoying. However, now that I've thought about it a bit more, I think I might struggle. At home I like to do step arobics, but I have to drink a lot and make sure I'm right in front of the fan because of how quickly I overheat. I've noticed the same thing with jogging. I'll get heat rashes literally within a few minutes of starting. I've never been to this gym bef ..read more

So my main goal is weight loss, and I have heard others recommend to do a combo of cardio + strength training in your workout session to burn fat for weight loss + turn fat into muscle, and that doing just one won't be as effective as doing both.
However, I've heard others say that doing both on the same day will cause negative interference effects, but also others that disagree with that claim, so I'm not sure which claim to go by.
I've been doing cardio dance workouts about 30 mins to an hour 5x a week for a month now since it's the exercise I find most enjoyable that also bre ..read more

This program has a 3 4 or 5 day a week programming
I was wondering if there is a recommend weekly split ie.
Monday Tuesday On Wednesday Off Thursday Friday On Sat sun off
Or for 5 day Monday thru friday on
I couldn’t find a recommendation online and I thought I could ask here I often see this program recommended a lot and pretty well regarded
If there is a similar program that does the same job ie with the periodization and mesocycling I would love to hear some recommendations as well
Thanks for your time

Recently I’ve stopped doing hip thrusts completely because I dread doing them. I never get a good stretch (i know they’re a shortened movement but still it doesn’t feel like I’m working the muscle without a stretch) or feel like my glutes are being worked whenever I up the weight.
2 plates feels good whenever I’m doing barbell hip thrusts but anything more than that and I lose the mind muscle connection and start to feel them in my quads. Because of this I’ve been stuck at 2 plates for ~3 months.
Recently I’ve been focusing on getting my squat pr up and ohmygosh I feel like my legs look bette ..read more

My girlfriend has started going to the gym with me recently. We've started on Before the Barbell and it's been a great introduction for her. We're in week 6 and it's been great to see her confidence improve so much as she's started to see her strength growing.
She's got really long and thick hair, it's comfortably down to her bottom. She's found a way to manage it for just about everything except Barbell squats and I'm at a loss of how to help her. A ponytail can be dangerous for obvious reasons and a bun doesn't work because there's too much hair that it's just kind of flops down her neck an ..read more
