Are there guidelines for the relative strength of opposing muscle groups to avoid injury? For instance, what weight should I use in the hamstring curl vs quad extension to avoid -unbalancing- them? Is this something that I need to worry about? Everyone seems to have some muscle groups that are more easily developed than others, but do we need to worry about overdeveloping those groups and risking muscle or joint injury in other areas?
Ideally, I am looking for something like hamstring curl weight should be x% of quad extension weight, curl weight should be x% of tricep extension weight, bench press weight should be x% of squat weight, etc. I have reached an age where I am more focused in keeping what I have and staying active and healthy while avoiding injury than I am in big gains in strength. I realize that such guidelines would be rough estimates at best, but anything you can offer would be helpful. Thanks.

How about do a series on workout accessories like proper gloves, belts, weightlifting shoes, proper use of wraps and compression sleeves, and accessories that are really not necessary for a proper workout. Maybe how to use them properly. How tight should a belt be before it hinders breathing and core stability? Proper placement of belts, and which gloves work for what workout? And the importance of proper shoes once you start doing some serious powerlifting. People love their accessories but sometimes qe need help to pick which one to use, how to use it, and when to use it.

Hi Jeff I have been following your advice for the last couple of years I used to be a 46 kg very skinny guy now my weight is 65 kg but recently it's quite difficult for me to perform some of exercise for example bend over rowing movement pull ups chin ups side bar dipping
If I perform those exercise I fall sick like I am feeling gastritis I have consulted doctors Nd even done a usg Nd it shows that I have fatty liver can u please suggest me what should I do? Coz my physician told me not to do exercise but I don't know for how long should I take rest

Would doing this with bad form (per Jesse-s first example) cause or exacerbate a shoulder impingement? I was using this exercise but I-ve had to stop all upper bod stuff while I rehab a minor impingement problem in my right shoulder before it becomes a bigger problem, I am wondering whether doing this badly (I thought I had good form but maybe I didn-t) may have made that worse? 40+ and an ex swimmer also

I learned from Jeff how important it is to have mobility when doing behind the neck military press, everyday when I stretch I lay on my back and hold arms up over my head and move them all around my my full shoulders are very flexible, also you have to make sure your chest does not get to tight or that will contribute to less mobility.

Ok you see my post from a month ago. What a difference! Of course it's not magic bust I can now do -some- work. Mentally it has been a big deal. And it does take 3 or4 sets of light weight to get ready. Luckily my gym has bumper weights that are larger in diameter. So I can do it just like Jeff.

Outstanding video. thanx so much. I have torn rotator cuffs/cartilage tears and have to be very careful with my pressing movements but when done correctly help me to build muscle mass to help support my damaged shoulders. This video is a great tip with the warm up plate press.

I ran into this problem, 2 frozen shoulders and sciatica later, my gut feeling told me to do this with 2 light dumbbells in the same fashion as the plate, wicked results! Thanks guy's this would be a major problem with most people having shit posture. Well done keep it up!

The worst thing that can happen is when you do this for the first time, and as you start the lift the whole gym suddenly becomes quiet, because they all want to watch you try to balance the bar at the top of the lift, and waiting for a possible viral video of the action.
