    5/3/1 Influenced Program?

    OK... Will do! Thanks for the feedback, and great advice!! Does the Defranco Agile 8 target the whole body, or is more focused on the lower body? Would that also improve my overall posture as I have a slight Posterior Pelvic Tilt, Lordosis, Winged Scapula, and Hip Flexor Inflexibility. Thank...

    5/3/1 Influenced Program?

    Thanks for all of the great advice! I didn't realise there was already a program that ran similar to this one within the 5/3/1 bible, as I was going off a few references on-line. I'm basically working from home, and all I have to work within is a Power Rack, Bench, Pull-Up Bar, and a set of...

    5/3/1 Influenced Program?

    DREADLIFT.. I hear you!! The program is sound! I'm just after something I can finish in 45-50 minutes, as the beginner program takes me around a hour and a half to complete.

    I'd be keen if there was a Pre-Novice Program that you were also trialling! :)

    Thoughts on where to buy TONOTIL Equivelant in Australia?

    Hi, I was stressed out extremely bad when I was overseas to the point where I couldn't get out of bed, and had major pains in my abdomen. My overseas doctors told me it was due to excessive stress, which was either due to "my job, or my woman", and he prescribed me a tonic called TONOTIL which...

    Beginners program

    This is a fantastic program however it take me almost one hour and a half to complete it. I was hoping to try and get my wife involved in the program, but that may also blow out the time to two hours+, as I know she will lose interest. Should I split it up into an A, and B routine, similar to...

    bench press inside a power rack

    Silverback and co, How far off the chest is the bar? The rack is on 15mm rubber matting in the garage (which is on a cement slab). Should I count the distance from my lower chest or upper chest as I have no chest at the moment! :(

    bench press inside a power rack

    Does it touch the upper or lower chest, and I'm using one of those folding benches where part of my bottom sits on the lower seat, and partially in the groove between the lower and upper seat. Would this also affect my overall ability with performing the chest exercise correctly ? Sent from my...

    bench press inside a power rack

    Thanks for the advice. Ill try send a video tonight, but if I lower it to the next level then I think it touches my neck. One thing I haven't tried is arching my chest. Maybe that will give me the extra space I need. Ill also see about the flooring, and I bought rubber flooring already that's...
