That way the entire trapezius muscle can get targeted. Personally when I split my workouts into push- pull-legs I always include traps on pull days.

]]> Comment on 5 top tips to boost your metabolism by Phil http://www.fitnessuncovered.co.uk/blog/2010/01/02/5-top-tips-to-boost-your-metabolism/#comment-3538 Phil Tue, 26 Jan 2010 21:12:07 +0000 http://www.fitnessuncovered.co.uk/blog/?p=739#comment-3538 Top tips! Couldn't have done a better job myself :) @ Aaron - I've been hearing about green tea a lot over the last few years. I decided to incorporate 2-3 cups into my daily diet a few weeks back and I definitely do feel better for it. It's not a huge difference, but it's noticable. I'm not 100% sure that 5 cups is necessary to feel the difference, but I'm sure it wouldn't hurt to have that many. Drinking green tea would be a good move for regular tea drinkers that drink numerous cups of tea every day. Top tips! Couldn’t have done a better job myself :)

]]> Comment on Weight training without a spotter - workout by Aaron http://www.fitnessuncovered.co.uk/blog/2010/01/22/weight-training-without-a-spotter-workout/#comment-3534 Aaron Tue, 26 Jan 2010 06:55:04 +0000 http://www.fitnessuncovered.co.uk/blog/?p=760#comment-3534 It's been years since I've had a training partner. I'm still able to go heavy on certain lifts like squats, military presses, and bench presses. The gym where I work out has a power cage, so if I'm squatting or doing heavy bench presses I can set up the rack to catch the weight if I would happen to fail without getting pinned or pushed to an extreme range of motion.

She started playing softball a few years ago and her knee was hurting. Once she started taking glucosamine the pain went away and her knee doesn't give her trouble at all now.
