Types of breathing Abdominal (diaphragmatic) / low respiration It is the most important, efficient and healthy, because it is the natural one; it mostly involves the diaphragm, which in this type of breathing is responsible for 70% of the respiratory volume. Abdominal breathing is also called: diaphragmatic or vegetative, and is used by our body autonomously when we sleep

by Roberto Eusebio, absolute national champion of body fitness in collaboration with Di Bella Dario Hands up who has never presented with a disturbing sense of anxiety at the most feared appointment of the week. Those who have been practicing body building for some time and with a minimum of seriousness and determination have already figured out what I'm talking about: I'm talking about leg training
Edited by Dr. Francesca Fanolla Squat The other fundamental exercise that is often wrong is the SQUAT, together with the LEG PRESS. The most frequent and dangerous mistake is that of bending the legs by moving the body weight and the center of gravity too far forward, overcoming the toes with the knees and considerably overloading the knee joint
By Dr. Filippo Casini Often when we talk about the gym, a little at all latitudes, the first thing that comes to mind is a rather muscular guy lying on a bench that lifts a barbell very loaded with cast iron with ease, getting up at the end of the series with a chest that almost explodes ... Unfortunately, in reality, the pectoral muscles often find it difficult to grow, partly because it is not easy to establish a good muscle-mind connection, as it is rather easy to train the arms, especially in the mirror, watching the muscle contract, and a little because the flat bench in most cases is not
Edited by: Francesco Currò The title is a bit provocative, but it is not entirely meaningless. No, I'm not one of those presumed coaches derived from Powerlifter more than from Body-builder, who tears his clothes in favor of Squat1. I bow before the Squat as an exercise - especially for the natural - of "general stimulation", but I have some objections to its exclusive application in the training of the legs as I think that "unconsciously" this exercise is never taken to the limit: it is necessary think about balance, not "smash" under the barbell etc.
Edited by Emanuele Giuliani The first thing to highlight is that if pure strength is important in bodybuilding in general, in Natural it is even fundamental. The transverse section of the muscle is in fact proportional to the force, therefore the more load is used (always within the terms of the correct execution of the exercise) and the more it will tend to put on lean muscle mass
By Dr. Simone Losi It is the "prince" exercise in the gym, all of us at least once in our lives have used this magnificent exercise. But let's see if the squat can be an exercise within everyone's reach or we need to make some considerations before offering it to our customers. We start from the support of the barbell on the upper part of the trapezoids, we can immediately notice that to correctly position the barbell and not do too much "effort" in keeping it in the correct position it is necessary to have a good elasticity at the level of the internal rotators of t
By Dott.Luca Franzon We start the new year with a journey into the past, going to rediscover and perhaps for someone to discover, one of the greatest characters that body building has ever known. Vince Gironda was born November 9, 1917 in the Bronx, NY. His family moved to Los Angeles when his father stuntman got the job offered to him in the upcoming Ben Hur film

Edited by Roberto Rillo - Book Author: Calisthenics BodyBuilding How many times have you read or heard that we are what we eat, that in bodybuilding, nutrition is 50% (I found 80% written!). Beyond the percentages, what matters is the principle: food is our fuel, if it is not there we stop, if it is wrong we seize
