Angus Posted September 27, 2001 Share Posted September 27, 2001 Hip flexors are commonly known as the love-handles on overweight people. The bits right on the side of the hips i do believe. GC - if u can manage to do weights as well that would be perfect, but somple non-equipment reps were what i started myself on, and all u need to do is boost the amount of reps as u get stronger. Everything should be good. Angus Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear, not absence of fear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaiFightsMS Posted November 3, 2001 Share Posted November 3, 2001 chinups and push ups are usually paired together in upperbody workouts to keep the muscles balanced. Like the reciprocal action of pulling the nonpunching hand back. Strengthening the push muscles without working the pull muscles can lead to problems down the road. Also certain hand positions used in doing chinups can strengthen the trapezius muscles the neck depends on. Many martial artists have weak necks.
