Tip: Do You Meet These 5 Fitness Standards? | T Nation

Think of this as a template, not a complete prescription. This is a comprisal of the qualities that develop a savage. It's up to you to determine what you need. Here are a few simple screens:

  1. Can't deadlift two times your body weight? You need to get stronger.
  2. Can't broad jump eight feet? You need more power.
  3. Can't touch your toes? You need mobility.
  4. Can't run a mile without stopping? You need better conditioning. I'm not saying you need to run miles at a time or improve your mile time, but every self-respecting man should be able to run a mile without having to take a breather.
  5. Can't hold an iso-lunge for a minute without taking a break? You need to get tougher.
It might be that you need to develop all these qualities or just a couple. If you're confused about where to start, improve your mobility and get stronger.

Sucks like hell having to do lower weight squats, but squatting 3x week with :old: form ain't the wave.

I'm getting closer to a decent bench finally:old:

Hate cardio but I've always been intrigued with rowing, does anyone know any good rowing routines/circuits>

Found a tape measure laying around and decided to check my stats for the fun of it. Looks like I'm evenly proportioned for the most part. Not too heavy on top or bottom.

Chest: 37
Arms: 15
Waist: 34
Quads: 22
Calves: 15

Want to try and maintain those numbers while losing weight so I gotta lose fat in my stomach more than other areas. I doubt I'll gain more muscle since you have to eat a certain number of calories to gain muscle and I doubt I reach that number.

We bout the same damn size :ohhh:
