Guest guest Posted July 5, 2004 Report Share Posted July 5, 2004 Traps and forearm exercises are not included with the training for life outline. If you add those two exercises that may fill in some of your time at the gym and might eliminate the need for all the extra ab work you've included. > Hi Everyone.

Guest guest Posted July 5, 2004 Report Share Posted July 5, 2004 Also that is too much ab work. The abs should be rested like any other body part. > Hi Everyone.

Guest guest Posted July 5, 2004 Report Share Posted July 5, 2004 Hi there, I'm no expert but I don't think this is a good idea. Just cuz you're at the gym doesn't mean you need to be on a machine. There's no reason to get injured or burn out just cuz you think other people might be looking at you. Forget them! It's none of their business anyway! Do your BFL workout and then relax, read a good book! Maybe take a walk or sit in the sauna if you feel like it. Just my opinion! Sparkles > Hi Everyone.
