#82Ugh. Promoting isolation exercises should be banned.
how much do you squat?
Re: Select a muscle and it provides the exercises to workout the selected muscle
#83Aww, I wanted to find about that little shin muscle that makes the quads and hamstrings looked balanced in comparison, and which is absolutely needed for the base drum and hardly remarked upon for anything else, but it didn't show up.
That exercise you are looking for is called "Make a Chris Adler cover" but if you don't have a bass drum nearby you should:
Find something elevated to stand on. Like a box or a street curb. Stand on the "front palms" of your foot and lower/raise yourself so your heels go as far down they can, and up! Im not sure what they are called, but i will refer to them as chris adler squats.

#84Thanks OP for sharing my website! Please be gentle with me. This is a project website that I built out of frustration a few years ago. I know there are things that need improving and a lot of things that could be adjusted. I work full time at Brave Software (brave.com) and simply don't have time to put a ton of effort into MuslceWiki. I do however have a big backlog of videos to add and I've slowly been working on an…
Thanks for building this! I love that this exists, and want to encourage you to continue. Like a lot of people working in tech, I've had persistent neck and posture issues for years. I'd love to see you expand to cover those, focusing on the many smaller muscles in the neck like SCM/Scalenes/Occipitals/etc. Another great area to expand is 'click where you have pain' and it would recommend certain stretches, weights,…

I did some things on-and-off for posture (mostly rear delts), but what I did consistently, and think helped the most, was heavy (for me) deadlifts.
I'm curious: how many pullups can you do? I ask because they take a lot of lat strength, and your lats do a lot of work holding up your back.

What's up with only having first-party js/css/image resources on your site? /s

I'm curious: what was the reason for splitting out things for men and women?

Great idea and very useful website! Thank You.
One suggestion: A lot of folks don't go to gym, lack access to exercise equipment etc. It might be worthwhile to have a section on how to work out the specific muscles without any equipment and in minimal space using only bodyweight/calisthenics; eg. Yoga stretches, deep squats, pushups(both Normal and Hindu) etc.

#89Earlier quoted context omitted.
The exercises featured are actually good. The problem with all of these exercise sites is that people have different weaknesses, need specific programming and learning how to do complex movements from watching videos is suspect at best.
most people don't have different weaknesses or special needs. in order to have a pronounced weak point, you need to have strong points, and untrained people aren't strong. highly individualized beginner training is like making minor corrections to a lump of clay. you don't even have a sculpture yet - there's nothing to correct.
People have muscle imbalances just from bad posture, sitting too much, and exercising with poor form (if they do exercise). Not to mention overall inflexibility that again lends to bad form.
Watching videos and doing general exercises will not address these issues. They may actually make them worse.

Unfortunately I'm limited in what I can do overhead due to an old neck injury, so pullups are out. Most upper body stuff causes me pain so I have to be extra careful dialing in the right movements, weight, and reps.
I've heard deadlifts are one of the best exercises, I can't wait to get back to PT and get a personal trainer so I can do those correctly. I doubt I've done enough with lats.
