hi skcraynor, i was wondering what you thought about jumping rope as a cardio workout and if you had any tips for a noob like me? thanks!


Jumping rope is great for cardiovascular activity.

What type of tips are you looking for exactly? What are your goals?

Dips, wide or close grip? Which is better for chest and which for triceps? And how far down i actually need to go


Close grip is better for triceps, wide is better for chest.

I like to do both depending on my muscular necessity.

I would advise that you go down at least 90 degrees for both, slightly below if possible for maximum ROM of the engaged muscle groups

I am completely unsure of the company itself and have no idea of the quality. However the ingredients are:

Ingredients -
PhD Nutrition protein-synthesis optimising blend (Whey Protein Concentrate, Whey Protein Isolate, Taurine, L-Glutamine, Leucine, iso-Leucine, Valine), Flavouring, Dietary fibre:-Xanthan gum, Carboxymethtyl cellulose, sweetener: Sucralose, Acesulfame K.


Sucralose and Acesulfame K are no good. I would avoid products with artificial sweeteners in them like these.


what about the other ingredients, are they ok ?

Fat loss 15 tips

That should help you.

Also, for cutting, you would want to work out at a cardio pace - ie: very little rest between sets, often hitting muscle groups with lighter-medium weight until failure. You can also train compound exercises like squats, bench press, clean and press, etc. with higher weight until failure with short rest in-between with good results.

The main goal for cutting is simply to keep the activity level very high. Try to keep your heart rate in the average ballpark of 130-150 bpm, and try not to let it go lower than 100 bpm, or higher than 180 bpm.

Hydrate yourself properly, and if you start feeling faint, take a short break, splash cold water on your face, neck, and head, and continue when you are ready.


EDIT: also forgot to mention - you need to pay VERY close attention to your diet. Follow something like this:
