Review of ProSource Chin-up Bar

     Hey Guys!

     Today I wanted to review one of the best and least expensive pieces of equipment that you could add to your home gym -- the ProSource Chin-up Bar.

     What separates this version of an over-the-door chin-up bar with the rest is the extra grips. Similar products usually offer 2 or 3 grips. The ProSource Chin-up Bar offers 5 different grips for a complete workout.

ProSource Heavy-Duty Easy Gym Doorway Chin-Up/Pull-Up Bar     And there are many different exercises you can do with this bar. Besides the 5 different grips for pull-ups and chin-ups, you can do hanging leg raises, hanging knee raises, hanging wipers, levers, etc. Basically, it is as good for your abs as it is for your lats.

     The best part about this product is that it only costs $30. http://www.amazon.com/ProSource-Heavy-Duty-Doorway-Chin-Up-Pull-Up/dp/B002YQUP7Q/ref=pd_sim_sg_4/177-1104104-7613067?ie=UTF8&refRID=1MMW3ANCRM7DAKSBSA6A

     If I could make a list of the top 5 pieces of equipment to include in a home gym, this would definitely be on that list. The product can even be used to help correct posture and relieve lower back pain. Simply hanging from the bar will allow your spinal cord to decompress.

     The only downside that I've run into with this product is that it does damage the door frame. But I must say I have been using this product extensively for a few years now. By that I mean I can't pass it without doing a few pull-ups or hang from it.

     But the damage is not extensive -- the door frame will certainly not come down anytime soon. There are some marks and cracks, but nothing serious.

     I think that's all I have to say on this matter. If you want a strong back, arms, and abs then this is the perfect product for you. I cannot see how you could leave this out of a home gym. It's inexpensive and effective. That's all I got for you.

Arnold Schwarzenegger's "The New Encyclopedia of Modern Bodybuilding" Review

     Hey guys!

     I wanted to take a slightly different approach this month, so for the month of may I will be reviewing different products related to health and fitness.

     The goal of these reviews is to help, those of you who are interested, in creating home gyms, learning from literature, and making smarter buying choices.

    
     With that said, I would like to start by reviewing Arnold Schwarzenegger's The New Encyclopedia of Modern Bodybuilding.

     This is perhaps the most helpful book I have read in improving my strength and physique. The encyclopedia covers practically all aspects of bodybuilding, from techniques and exercises to diet information.

     Just the exercise section can greatly broaden your routine and knowledge of building an aesthetically pleasing physique. The section clearly states the purpose of each exercise in simple terms, which can be used as a great tool in enhancing your routine.

     In fact, the entire encyclopedia is easy to read, informative, and entertaining. The language used is not complicated or confusing. All the information is laid out in layman's terms.

     There are also pictures at every turn for the visual learners. So not only is the information solid, but the pictures help readers obtain a better understanding of that information.

     But the best aspect of this encyclopedia is that it helps you understand the science behind bodybuilding, which will help you design a suitable program.

     Then the real icing on the cake is all the techniques, the supplement information, the diet information, the posing information, as well as other topics discussed that help you create the best program possible.

     Arnold Schwarzenegger wrote the book for all ages and sexes. There is no excuse not to pick up this book and design your own routine.

     The book is about 800 pages long and only costs $20. It's a steal! Anyone interested in weight lifting should buy this book. The information it contains is invaluable. In fact, here is a link for you to purchase the book right now.

http://www.amazon.com/New-Encyclopedia-Modern-Bodybuilding-Updated/dp/0684857219/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1430522826&sr=8-1&keywords=the+new+encyclopedia+of+modern+bodybuilding

     To sum all that up, you will learn many new exercises that will help you take your workouts to the next level. You will learn how to create a diet plan that will allow you build muscle and burn fat. You will learn various techniques used to fatigue your muscles to their limits. And all of this information will allow you to build a stronger, healthier body.

     Get Stronger!
