      <image:title>Free Resources - The Cost of Shortcuts In Fitness - What are your goals? Do you want to lose weight? Build muscle? Get stronger? Faster?</image:title>
      <image:caption>Whatever your goal may be, would you rather have it right now? Or would you prefer to reach that goal in ten years?</image:caption>

      <image:title>Free Resources - The Cost of Shortcuts In Fitness - Assume we want to change our body composition- lose weight, or build muscle. We have many options. We can control our caloric intake, and slowly but surely change our body fat and muscle mass ratio.</image:title>
      <image:caption>We can often speed this process up by either severely cutting calories, or dirty bulking- eating a ton of calorie dense foods.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Free Resources - The Cost of Shortcuts In Fitness</image:title>
      <image:caption>We need to ask ourselves, have we considered the costs of using these tools? Will we lose our goals, will we regress when we stop using these tools? Can, and should these tools be used forever?</image:caption>

      <image:title>Free Resources - How To Unlock The Pull-Up - The second thing is to make sure you are doing some horizontal rows.</image:title>
      <image:caption>You should be doing cable rows, bodyweight rows, dumbbell rows, Etc. You can work the same muscles that in a pull-up by doing rowing movements, so you can get your muscles stronger by moving lighter weights to better prepare them for that heavier pull-up.  Rows can help you become strong enough to do pull-ups. In my opinion, they alone will not be enough, but they absolutely are part of the equation.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Free Resources - How To Unlock The Pull-Up - There are multiple different ways to do this. Some people prefer the banded pull-up.</image:title>
      <image:caption>Here you select a band that causes the pull-up to be easy enough for you to complete.</image:caption>
    </image:image>
    <image:image>

      <image:title>Free Resources - How To Unlock The Pull-Up - Another excellent tool is the assisted pull-up machine. Here, you do the opposite of what you do with any other machine. You decrease the weight as you progress which causes your muscles to lift more and more of your body weight.</image:title>
      <image:caption>This would max out at your body weight. At that point, you’re justdoing normal pull-ups!</image:caption>

      <image:title>Free Resources - How To Unlock The Pull-Up - In my opinion, all of these tools pale in comparison to the simple negative pull-up.</image:title>
      <image:caption>With the negative pull-up, you grab the bar and jump until your chin is over the bar then slowly lower yourself down. Or you can find an object to step on that will put your chin above the bar and then lower yourself down.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Free Resources - Train Like an Outlaw: Red Hood - Today we're going to be talking about Red Hood, Jason Todd, and the way he would train in the real world.  Oh, you don’t care about any of that? You just want a solid weighted calisthenics routine? Well here you go!</image:title>
      <image:caption>Jason Todd was created by Gerry Conway and Don Newton as the second Robin to train under Batman. Jason ran into Batman when he attempted to steal the wheels off the Batmobile, which simultaneously earned Batman's respect and put him on Batman's radar as someone who needed help. What Jason is maybe, sadly most known for is being the Robin who died.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Free Resources - Train Like an Outlaw: Red Hood - He incorporates aspects from Judo, and his kicking looks a lot like Taekwondo. I’d give him a striking foundation of karate, but it’s likely that he’s adept in boxing or kickboxing as well.</image:title>
      <image:caption>I’d also give Jason some wrestling, because there are times where he just… flings dudes around. It’s awesome, and really highlights his brute strength.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>He's not shown eating salmon and chicken breast and broccoli, at least in the scenes that we see him in. We could theorize that perhaps he’s following the diet popularized Anthony Collova. If It Fits Your Macros(IIFYM) I am the founder of IIFYM.com and the creator of the macro calculator you used yesterday. With the fictional setting of comics they can get away with things that humans cannot do.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Free Resources - Train Like an Outlaw: Red Hood - Jason's physique is like any other comic character, it varies depending on who is drawing him. Jason's height and weight varies pretty consistently with what we see on the page; it does not always reflect the build of a supposed 6ft 200lb man.</image:title>
      <image:caption>In general Jason is not a completely unrealistic goal. We can look at people like Chris Evans from the first Cap movie, or Michal B Jordan as Killmonger,  and see glimpses of what may be a Jason style physique.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Free Resources - Train Like an Outlaw: Red Hood - Jason consistently seems to have a very strong lower body foundation. His quads are very strong and very well developed. He also seems to have very strong, very well developed forearms.</image:title>
      <image:caption>Besides those highlights, Jason just has a solid build all around. It all lines up pretty well with the activity that Jason engages in, and the type of training that he’d engage in.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Free Resources - Train Like an Outlaw: Red Hood - Make it stand out</image:title>

      <image:caption>She’s able to quickly accelerate to a speed of 15 mph and maintain that speed for an indefinite amount of time. She's capable of throwing full grown men around.

      <image:title>Free Resources - Improve your Endurance, Learn Parkour: Train like Faith - Faith absolutely looks like a runner. Her physique is perfect for her activity level. The game design for this was spot on</image:title>
      <image:caption>I know runners who do long distance running who look almost exactly like Faith. They don't have too much muscle mass, they're lean, and they are actually about Faith's height.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Free Resources - Stop Sleepless Nights: Learn How to Reduce the Risks of Sleep Apnea &amp;amp; Sleep-Disordered Breathing - Obstructive apneas, on the other hand, involve a pause in breathing while your body is still making an effort to breathe.</image:title>

      <image:title>Free Resources - How Many Reps Should I Be Doing? - Strength is composed of two things:</image:title>
      <image:caption>1. The intensity with which our muscle fibers are recruited to move the weight. 2. The number of muscle fibers we’re able to recruit. This means that we get strong by “teaching” the muscles to ramp up their intensity. And we also can get stronger, by increasing the cross-sectional area of the fibers that we are calling on. I.E get bigger muscles</image:caption>

      <image:title>Free Resources - How Many Reps Should I Be Doing? - Muscle growth almost seems to be an outlier, at least according to current research. Research shows that muscle can be grown anywhere from 5-30 reps, and very likely can still be grown outside of that rep range.</image:title>
      <image:caption>“With respect to hypertrophy, the compelling body of literature indicates that similar whole muscle growth (i.e., muscle thickness, CSA) can be achieved across a wide spectrum of loading ranges ≥ ~30% 1RM. These findings are independent of age and training status. Thus, as a matter of principle, there is no ideal “hypertrophy zone.””</image:caption>

      <image:title>Free Resources - How Many Reps Should I Be Doing? - Muscular endurance is best thought of as your ability to move a set weight as many times as possible. Think about how many push-ups you can do in a row. If you ever wanted to do 50 push-ups in a row, you wanted to improve your muscular endurance.</image:title>
      <image:caption>Building endurance involves a few different things, teaching your body to clear lactic acid efficiently, improving your glycolytic system, etc. The most common forms of endurance training are things like jogging, jumping rope, and rowing, things that train your cardiovascular system.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Free Resources - Mirror’s Edge and The Freedom of Movement - Imagine this: You, yes, you in real life, need to get to the end of a long alley, but there is a wall in your way.</image:title>

But what if the wall is 10 feet tall? Can you climb over it? Can you grab the top and pull yourself up? Or wall run and vault over it? If the wall is 13 or 15 feet tall, has it barred you from your goal?</image:caption>

      <image:title>Free Resources - Nightwing Hero Training - Nightwing typically is anywhere from 5’10-6ft tall, and 175 lbs, depending on who is writing him. In general, Nightwing has a muscular build, with a low amount of body fat. As far as comics go, he’s typically drawn smaller than Batman.</image:title>
      <image:caption>In some cases, Nightwing’s build is entirely attainable. As seen here.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Free Resources - Nightwing Hero Training - Thinking of Nightwing, with his gymnast background may cause us to believe that this will be a pure bodyweight-only routine. That’s not the case. The routine absolutely includes weights.</image:title>
      <image:caption>Nightwing does use weights for certain exercises, like his biceps and legs. This is in line with how actual gymnasts train. It’s a misconception that gymnasts train exclusively with bodyweight exercises. Why would you leave such a good training tool on the table just to be a purist who performs worse than someone who uses all of the tools available?</image:caption>

      <image:title>Free Resources - How To Train Your Back At Home? - We all know how to train our chest at home. We can spam push-ups almost anywhere with minimal equipment.</image:title>
      <image:caption>Push-ups can be scaled down so that even beginners can perform them. Likewise, there are different variations we can do to make push-ups harder. So that they continue to provide a stimulus as we become more advanced. However, doing too many push-ups can lead to muscle imbalances, injured shoulders, and an unbalanced physique.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Free Resources - How To Train Your Back At Home? - Our first option would be the dumbbell row.</image:title>
      <image:caption>This is a solid option because it allows you to completely control the intensity, as you can just buy whatever weight challenges you. You can also use those dumbbells for many other exercises. Sadly, this is the most expensive option, as you will have to continue to buy weight, and at approximately $1/lb, the expense starts to stack up.</image:caption>

    <image:image>
      <image:loc>https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61d0eb28daab3b388605515e/f55eefab-1f24-4bff-92f1-e4a6ad3c8e5b/Screenshot+2024-02-01+125930.png</image:loc>
      <image:title>Free Resources - How To Train Your Back At Home? - Next, you could buy a dip/rowing station. This is a great option because it allows you to do other exercises, like dips, L-Sits, and other gymnast shenanigans.</image:title>
      <image:caption>This also allows you to scale the difficulty of the row by letting you perform a table row, where your legs help support you. Since these tend to be sturdy, you shouldn’t have any problems adding weight by wearing a backpack full of heavy items.  This might cost $60-$90.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Free Resources - How To Train Your Back At Home? - In my opinion, the best option would be a pull up bar and gymnastic ring combo.</image:title>
      <image:caption>This option may cost you anywhere from $60-$170 depending on how much your rings and pull-up bar cost. The rings give you full control over the difficulty of the exercise by allowing you to control the angle, and even perform one-arm variations.</image:caption>
    </image:image>

      <image:title>Free Resources - How To Train Your Back At Home? - Finally, they can also be done with resistance bands. If you’re going with this option get the bands that have an accessory that anchors it to a door. I don’t love this option. In general, I’m not a huge fan of bands due to their resistance curve.</image:title>
      <image:caption>These can cost about $30-$40.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Free Resources - N3 Is The Most Important Sleep Stage for Muscle Growth - Well you should, because there is a thing called REM rebound, and it’s coming for your growth hormone. This is where, upon falling asleep, our bodies go into REM sleep as quickly as possible. If you’ve ever taken a nap, and immediately had a dream, you’ve probably experienced REM rebound. Our body is trying to make up for what it missed the night before.</image:title>

      <image:title>Free Resources - Fatal Familial Insomnia - Can Insomnia Kill You?</image:title>
      <image:caption>You’re tired. Your thoughts are erratic, and scattered. All you’ve wanted to do for the past few months is sleep, but each night your dreams seem to move farther and farther away from you. You’ve tried to put on a good face, but it’s starting to wear on you. You’re pretty sure you just had your first panic attack, but you don’t think anyone in the café noticed. You’ve been to the doctor, but that overpaid lab coat refused to give you anything that would actually help. The sleeping aids seem to be absolutely useless. You’re not sure how much longer you can live with this insomnia. The reality is, that you may not have to live with this insomnia for much longer. In fact, it may kill you. Let’s talk about Fatal Familial Insomnia.</image:caption>
