Any biceps movement because I hate working them. Really? Why is that? Not sure really. I've just never enjoyed working biceps much. That's not to say I don't work them. I keep everything balanced.

Hi Milly, fat loss is the best method for muscle definition. Without that, it doesn't matter how many sets/reps you do. As far as a resistance training program geared towards fat loss, I've used multiple sets (3-4) of compound movements (squats, presses, pulls) supersetting lower body movements with...

Weight training helps strengthen bones because it provides external forces on the bones (compression, bending, torsion, shear). These forces provide the stimulus for bone mineralization to take place, which builds the bone back stronger/thicker than it was previously. Weight bearing exercises are mo...

However, only use intervals 2-3 times per week as they'r...
