only in so far that if you are targeting a muscle group or movement then the number of exercises that mimic the movement your,are training are quite limited. If you want to practise foot scooping then you are limited to scooping with your foot as the prime exercise, though leg development in a more general way might improve your progress at,scooping
I guess my thought was that if reps, etc. are "method", then lifting a one-ended weight (in a specific way) would be, too. We could replace the traditional Chinese weight with a dumbbell loaded at one end, and do the same exercise. So, is that a new thing, an old thing, or neither? I'm not sure. If it never changed, it's not really new, but it can fit in nicely with methods that weren't in existence 100 years ago.
LOL...so do the unabridged...I quit needing one for swearing while I was teenager...Still swear; just don't need a dictionary to do so.
. Like i say some exercises are sports,specific and as old,as the sport its self, soccer players need o be able to run jump and kick so running jumping and kicking exercises are as much a part of the sport now as they were 100 years ago, the methods of training running jumping and kicking have improved massively whilst still being fundamentally the,same exercises.
After so many years as 24 hours gym member, I still have not been able to find any modern gym equipment that can help me to develop "both arms twisting power".
that's because its a fringe activerty, it would be very easy to attach a wheel to a weight stack, but you could get a truck and take the power steering off, but the point i was making what you use as resistance training isnt as important as what you do with it as regards to the training methodology you useAfter so many years as 24 hours gym member, I still have not been able to find any modern gym equipment that can help me to develop "both arms twisting power".
The closest equipment that I can find is this. But the rotation angle is limited.
Agreed. And lifting the rock (or barbell) over your head is different from lifting it to your chest - different exercise, same object.
And heavy.
I'm not sure what point you are making, skills and fitness need to be,developed in different ways, skills general require repeating till its,a natural movement. But that just looks like good upper body strength, the guy getting thrown is,considerably smaller. Any exercises that builds upper body,strengh with a bit of a twist, will help with that
Getting major rocky 4 training montage vibes here lol
i think youl find there are,a lot of light rocks,as well
why is lifting a rock more natural than lifting any other heavyish weight ?.
Yeah, but we never notice those. It's the heavy buggers we remember.
same with girl friends!
What I was trying to point out is there are certain strength that's needed in MA application that we can't develop in the modern gym environment. It requires traditional MA special development equipment. The general strength (such as the upper body strength) is not enough. You will need the "leg twisting" strength in this application.
well no, your point is similar to saying there is nothing in a modern gym that will help you kick a football harder, as there is no football kicking machine. You can develop all the muscles in the,chain,But the only way to put them all together is to kick a,football. You can do develop all the muscles used in that twist, but the only way to develop the muscles to work together ie skill to throw is to throw something
