Nitrobol Review
If I could sum up my experience with Nitrobol in one word all I would say, GAINS!
This product got me better lean results than any other supplement I have ever tried. The energy I got before my workouts with the very first workout until the end of my two bottles only got stronger and more noticeable, I felt like the incredibly lean hulk :) I took my bench press from a PR of 225 for 5 to 225 pounds for 16. My squat rose from 225 pounds for 8 to 225 for 15! The only complaint I have about this product would be that I don't have an lifetime supply. I went from 215 at 23% bodyfat to 200.8 at 12% bodyfat in 2 months and with this product the sky is the limit.

Is the Goblet Squat Good or Bad?
What exactly is the goblet squat? The goblet squat is a modified squat that uses a dumbbell, kettlebell, medicine ball, etc in tandem with a squat. I have been doing goblet squats over the past couple of weeks when doing my leg routines. I have to say they add in a great variety component and a new level of intensity. As many of you know who read my newsletter I am on a constant search for trying new workouts and exercises and then reporting back here how I liked them. If you want to know what a goblet squat is and if you should try them, keep on reading.
Where Did The Goblet Squat Come From?
From what I could find online the goblet squat was created by a guy named Dan John. Where and when it was developed I am not 100% sure however from what I have found on forums and various sites online there is a large group of fitness gurus and every day people championing goblet squats. The main reasons people are championing goblet squats are as follows:
- Adds a new variety into your workout regimen
- Really targets your inner thighs and butt
- Helps increase grip strength
- Works your shoulders at the same time as your legs.
Those are the most common points people bring up about the goblet squat. Instead of me typing out how do a proper goblet squat take a look at the video below to see how to do them.
A Little Twist To The Goblet Squat
As always I like to see if I can add a twist to already existing exercises for fun. When you start to come up with the goblet squat you can do a shoulder press at the top. This is a great way to get both shoulder work and leg work it at once. Another twist that you can do is add in some tip toe action at the top of the squat. As you come to the top of the squat raise up on your tip toes to help get extra calf work in as well. If you combine all of these little nuances to the goblet squat you will get a lot more done in a lot less time, which is always my focus with any workout that I do.
A little Workout Using Goblet Squats
This workout is going to be basic with only three exercises. Make sure to grab a dumbbell or kettlebell that does the job. Don’t get too heavy of a weight because you could injure yourself. Know your limits and select the right weight. Here is the quick workout
- Do 20 Goblet Squats with shoulder presses at the top of each goblet squat
- Do jump squats for 30 seconds with no weights, go as fast and hard as you can
- Do burpees for 1 minute straight.
- This ends the first round, do up to five rounds for this quick workout.
Final Thoughts On The Goblet Squat
Goblet squats can be done as a warm up exercise or an exercise inside of a great workout. Either way I suggest you do them to get a sense if you like them. For me I like them because they hit certain muscle groups in the legs that may not be targeted otherwise. Give the goblet squat a try and let me know what you think
