The Earthquake Bar As the Bamboo Bar grew in popularity, some lifters began using it more without the Safety-Slots. In fact, what they were calling for was a BandBell Bar that could hold a lot of bands and a lot of weight, all at the same time. Enter the Earthquake Bar! The Earthquake Bar was specially designed to hold a huge amount of weight and can be set up in a multitude of ways with bands and weights. Instead of safety slots, it has two-inch grooves cut into the wood to channel and grip the bands as the Bar bends radically under super-heavyweight. Use it for squats, bench, deadlifts, etc. This design works perfectly for CrossFit, high-performance & functional athletes, powerlifters, bodybuilders, and general workout programs because it has the unique capability of teaching perfect form however it’s used.

Why use the Earthquake bar?

The glenohumeral joint (the fancy name for your shoulder) is the most mobile joint in the human body, but it comes at a cost. When a joint gains mobility it tends to sacrifice stability, and instability in the shoulders leads to impingements & rotator cuff tears.

This question carries over from last week.

If you are not monitoring how much energy (food/ calories) you are taking in and the amount of energy you burn then unfortunately you will have a very hard time losing weight.

If you think about it anything in access will lead to weight gain. It doesn’t matter if it’s protein, fat, or carbs. They all have a value and that is calories.

Remember the law of thermodynamics?

Basically, the laws of thermodynamics determine if weight is gained, lost, or remains the same.

Yes, if you eat less and burn more you will lose weight, and if you eat more than you burn you will gain. But there is more involved than ‘energy in” vs “energy out”.

Energy is when food is taken into the body as calories through food and drink.

Energy out is when the body uses calories for daily energy requirements.
