    I need to progress the upper body more since she is going to be lifting a canoe over her head doing some portaging activities with it..

    canoe is 65 lbs and 8' long.. see the problem??

    More torso core training with heavy weights is the plan for now.. side bends, up and over with cable exercises..
    training clients with disabilities is a bitch lol... i dont liek the idea of the side bends as that will put alot of unecessary tension on the lower back and wont make a significant difference. id have her to standard crunches on a weighted machine, or any exercise not putting added pressure on hwe rlower back, but sounds liek you have the right idea in mind.

    yea, I need to hit her rear delts and continue with her rhomboids to give her that extra strength..

    I suggested she go with a kayak instead of a canoe..

    looks good, id do 3 hack squats, 3 squats, 3 leg press and optional 2-3 leg ext. some feel that lower rep ranges work better while others say higher rep ranges with legs.. hers my advice... do both! periodically change.

    what exercise for hams? IMO you could go up to 6 working sets for hams liek stiff leg deads (slight knee bend), and seated leg curls. looks good tho.

    very good approach. how is your client base as of now? are you acting as sales or is your gym supplying clients for you? im working on finding another gym just want to find one that supplies clientelle rather than sometimes compensated "floor time" which is a joke.

    i gear everything around the client as if they are the spotlight of the show because no matter what, THE CLIENT IS RIGHT! after explaining to them how i will approach their specific goal and have a program written out and explain to them liek its the ABC's they become excited and motivated. i explain to them their are no shortcuts. i keep the sessions interesting, i liek to stay consistent with a schedule to monitor progress but it gets boring to the average client. i like to be ********** and have fun and engage myself with the activitis the client is doing (racing them, lateral shuffle movements with medicine ball, etc etc). Im very altruistic so that goes along way, as well as being an excellent bullshitter (comes in handy sometimes)

    HEY MATE
    noticed ur advice on training n think ur set ranges and reps ranges and advice are pretty spot on from my experiences
    this is my current workout routine
    chest, tricpes, shoulders
    2 sets bench press
    2 sets dips with weights
    2 sets dumbell shoulder press
    1 set barbell shoulder press
    2 sets bench dips with weights
    2 sets tricep extensions
    2 sets lateral raises
    2 sets peck deck

    day 2: back, biceps, forarms, traps
    2 sets lat pull down
    1 set chinups
    2 sets dumbell rows
    2 sets deadlift
    2 sets shrugs
    2 sets hammer curls
    2 sets hyper extensions
    2 sets forarm curls
    day 3: legs and calves
    2 sets machine squat
    2 sets 45 degree leg press
    2 sets leg curls
    2 sets calve raises using 45 degree leg press machine

    my problem is my lats have slowed in development (im not getttin stronger)
    my rhombozoids (DUMBELL ROWS) im loosing strength in
    and my biceps development is going nowhere
    everything else is developing great, my legs, calves, traps, deadlifts, forearms
    tricep and chest are developing slowly but getting there
    any suggestions how i could accelerate my lats development, get my rows strength back up, and get my biceps developing?

    thanks, personally i dont think you are doing enough sets per exercise, nor per muscle group. i do 3-4 sets of every exercise maybe a 2 set exercise at the end

    day 2: back, biceps, forarms, traps
    2 sets lat pull down
    1 set chinups
    2 sets dumbell rows
    2 sets deadlift
    2 sets shrugs
    2 sets hammer curls
    2 sets hyper extensions
    2 sets forarm curls
    day 3: legs and calves
    2 sets machine squat
    2 sets 45 degree leg press
    2 sets leg curls
    2 sets calve raises using 45 degree leg press machine

    well your body probably has plateuad to the rep ranges, exercises you have been performing. time to swithc up rep ranges and exercises. also, i think you ened more sets per muscle group. at 100 percent intensity the listed amount in my first post will be fine. may also be your diet.

    i dont know how many sets you are doing and what intensity your training out so i cant have much input. other than if your goal is to gain miuscle doing all the high intensity cardio wont cut it unless you are calorie/carb up. cardio day is a waste IMO unless its going to be PWO or AM and should be LI unless you are carb up. but to lose fat LI and HIIT cardio is teh way to go PWO.

    cheers mate, about my workout program i repeat that twice in a week so i think ders fair bit of volume der
    also i has a question on ur sets per body part
    wen u designate a number of sets to a body part
    are u saying thats how many we should do in a workout?
    or within a time period?
    or both?

    eg u say 6-8 sets for chest
    iill presume thats in 1 week, just because u reccomend split training
    so if i did 8 sets for chest in one workouta week
    or 2 workouts of 4 sets on chest in a week, would this be the same?
    what im asking here is could i workout with a higher frequency per workout, rather then a higher volume?

    i dont recommend that, i feel comfortaable hitting each muscle 1x weekly.

    Before and after photos and weekly/monthly measurements are great.

    When they see visual changes, it motivates them more than anything.

    generally speaking i always agree to extra cardio before sacrificing kcals... i would acrtually drop half and half (half kcals from food and subtract kcals from cardio) but thats if you really want to put yourself in a caloric deficicent state.

    stiff leg deadlift is the same as deadlift except your knees are almost fully bent.. i dont recommend fulyl bent because of the extreme pressure your knees will be under.. youtube it im sure you can find it... also posterior delts.. lets see it will be confusing to explain the form

    1. sit alongside a flat bench with 2 dumbells
    2. feet together, have your entire body bent over and your looking forward
    3. elbows bent a little more than 90 degrees, with your pinkys out flare the dumbells liek reverse fly's.
