CORE SECRETS: UPPER BODY CHALLENGE
Gunnar's "secret weapon" for enhancing your upper body includes a compilation of targeted exercises and techniques designed to sculpt and strengthen key muscle groups, specifically your back, pecs, biceps, triceps, deltoids (delts), and abdominal muscles (abs). This comprehensive approach not only promotes muscle growth but also enhances overall function and posture.
1. Back
The back muscles are crucial for maintaining good posture and supporting the entire upper body. Incorporating exercises like pull-ups, bent-over rows, and lat pulldowns can help develop both width and thickness in the back. Regularly engaging these muscles contributes to a balanced physique and decreases the risk of injury. Additionally, focusing on the lower back with exercises such as deadlifts and hyperextensions can improve overall back strength.
2. Pecs
To build chest strength, Gunnar emphasizes the importance of bench presses, push-ups, and chest flys. These exercises not only work the pectoral muscles but also engage the triceps and shoulders, promoting a well-rounded upper body development. Variations, such as incline or decline presses, can target different parts of the chest, ensuring complete muscle activation.
3. Biceps
The biceps are often a focal point of upper body training. Gunnar recommends incorporating exercises like bicep curls, hammer curls, and chin-ups. These movements enhance the peak of the bicep and create a visually appealing upper arm. Additionally, proper form and varying grip styles can prevent plateaus and encourage continued growth.
4. Triceps
Strong triceps are essential for arm strength and play a critical role in many pushing movements. Exercises such as tricep dips, skull crushers, and overhead tricep extensions can be incredibly effective. Emphasizing a full range of motion ensures that the triceps are engaged throughout the entire movement, maximizing muscle development.
5. Delts
The shoulder muscles, or deltoids, give the upper body a well-defined shape. To enhance shoulder strength, Gunnar suggests incorporating overhead presses, lateral raises, and front raises into your routine. These exercises promote stability and mobility in the shoulder joint while also creating a rounded shoulder appearance. Mixing in both heavy lifts and lighter isolation exercises can lead to better muscle growth and balance.
6. Abs
Strong abs are not only aesthetically pleasing but also crucial for core stability and overall athletic performance. Gunnar emphasizes a mix of exercises that target the upper, lower, and oblique muscles, such as crunches, leg raises, and bicycle crunches. Integrating exercises like planks and Russian twists can further enhance core strength and endurance, providing a solid foundation for more complex movements.
By focusing on these muscle groups and incorporating a variety of exercises, you can effectively utilize Gunnar's "secret weapon" to achieve a stronger and more defined upper body. Remember, consistency is key, along with proper nutrition and recovery techniques, to maximize results from your efforts..

WHAT YOU GET:
This item is for the original media, and includes only the media (ie. CD, floppy ...) UNLESS specifically stated above and/or in the title. If more than just the media is included, it will state which items are (ie. box, manual, etc ). Items that come in a sleeve refer to a generic CD sleeve (typically white) and will be sent with shipping protection to avoid damage during transit. If available, we will also send the front and/or back CD inserts if in stock. If these are important to you, please message us to verify we have them available to send. Please do not assume items are included other than what's stated. Again, ask questions PRIOR to purchasing if you have any concerns.
IMAGES:
All images/pictures are stock photos and are for reference only, mainly to show the type of game you will be getting. Please read "WHAT YOU GET" for what is included with the media. Screenshots may vary based on your own computer system, video card, monitor, etc.
COMPATIBILITY:
Computers are like people, each one is different. Unlike console games, a computer game may install and work flawlessly on one system but may need adjustments on another. This is due to a variety of factors, mainly the OS platform running, video card you have, drivers, protection software installed, etc. Many times manufacturers release updates to games to fix bugs and add enhancements. We would be happy to help get the game going on your computer, but ultimately compatibility issues are the responsibility of the buyer. We suggest going to Google and searching for the name of the game along with the words "system requirements" to determine if your system is suitable. Ultimately, we are not responsible for software compatibility problems or publisher's errors.
PLATFORM:
Stated within the auction is what platform the game will work on (ie. Windows, Mac, Linux...) This is a generic statement and specific platform versions (ie. XP, Vista...) will have to be researched by the buyer. Games that came out PRIOR to XP or higher will not specifically state they will work on that release, but only because they came out before those versions were made. Many, if not most, will work on XP or higher with a few quick adjustments. We provide instructions with all items purchased on how to do this adjustment using the Program Compatibility Wizard. If we find out that an item will definately not work on a specific version, we will state it. For DOS games, you may need to play it with a free DOSbox program if the Program Compatibility Wizard does not work.
64-Bit Windows OS Systems:
For 64-bit Operating Systems, older games most likely will NOT work due to 64-bit systems not being able to run 16-bit programming code (most games prior to 2000). For DOS games, you may need to play it with a free DOSbox program.
Macintosh Systems:
For Macintosh programs, most older games will need to be run in Classic Environment if you have a MAC OS X 10.0 - 10.4 version. Please research Google on how to do this, or send us a message for information prior to purchasing. If your MAC OS system doesn't support Classic Environment (ie. MAC OS X 10.5 or Higher OR Intel Macs), you will have to try running it using the free program called SheepShaver, but compatibility is not ensured. Please research prior to purchasing or ask questions.
MEDIA FORMAT:
Please verify you have the required hardware in order to use the specified media (ie. CD, DVD, floppy drives, etc.) If the item comes as a floppy disc, make sure you have either the needed 3.5" floppy drive or the bigger and older 5.25" floppy drive.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR A SMOOTH PURCHASE:
Ask questions PRIOR to purchasing an order to avoid any confusion.
Be patient if there are problems during installation or gameplay. Typically someone else has
already ran into that problem and has listed a solution online. Contact us and we will do our best to help.
Be sure to update your video card drivers and search for updates to the game from the manufacturer.
