Tip of the Day:
Strength training is all about balance. Ideally, you will achieve the same strength level in opposing muscles groups--for example, your biceps are as strong as your triceps. The main opposing muscle groups in the body are: biceps/triceps, chest/upper back, abs/lower back, quads/hamstrings/calves/tibialis. Your goal should be to train those groups equally; so even though you may love biceps curls and despise dips, never favor one group over the other. This is especially important with regard to the abs and lower back; strong abs and a weak lower back is a leading cause of back troubles. So tempting though it is, don't play favorites.
