just in case somebody is searching for it on youtu.be, it is scooby1961.

i discovered scooby through a friend of mine a long time ago and his tips really helped getting me started with weight lifting. i have lost all my back problems since then. just remember, as long as an exercise feels good, it is unlikely to hurt you. i had to learn this the hard way, i pushed too hard on an exercise, ignored the pain and was left with a typewriters cramp, not so great if you are in front of a computer typing all day long. so start small and build your way up.



Another good source of information is Ross Emanait @ rosstraining.com. His plan is geared more toward boxing and other combat sports, which I just always found more fun. E.g. throwing a heavy sand bag around as if you were getting ready to fight a bear, and so on.


Thanks for the reminder, I totally forgot I have his book Infinite Intensity lying around, been wanting to look into that for quite some time now.
