    Musicians who died too young, too soon

    What about artists that should have died, but continue to put out albums? <object width="640" height="505"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/xRkA6zugNMQ&hl=en&fs=1&color1=0x402061&color2=0x9461ca"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param...

    'deca'

    He is not asking for a source of illegal drugs, he is asking a question about use. And for all we know he may have obtained it legally. I would recommend going to your local library (university library is best) and get some decent information on this drugs use. I came across a book or two on...

    We should all collectively come up with a beginners program!

    Beginners are going to look at that and think, what no biceps? They will also want a list of supplements by brand-name that will turn them into Ronnie Coleman within a few weeks. Why reinvent the wheel, anyway? There are so many beginner programs out there, from reputable sources, as well as...

    [Article] Bodybuilding Exercise:Legs, Hips and Glutes

    Thanks for the input. I am of the opinion that knees really shouldn't hurt with squats. If you squat properly then there shouldn't be that much pressure going through your knees. Have you seen a youtube video on how to properly squat? It is as if you were sitting down on the seat, pushing...

    [Article] Bodybuilding Exercise:Legs, Hips and Glutes

    I've had a mountain of Uni work, I've just come up for a breath of air. I've been doing leg extensions/curls on my crappy little machine. I need to update it, just have to convince the wife somehow ;-) Kindred, I'm only doing 40-50 kg at my max (not including the bar, not 100% sure how much...

    [Article] Bodybuilding Exercise:Legs, Hips and Glutes

    Trained legs today. I feel like I'm really stagnating with my legs. I haven't gone up in weight with squats for months. If anything I have decreased weight, improved technique and increased repetitions. I'm still not sure if that is an improvement though, or a move backwards. The intensity...

    I need a new computer does anyone have any advice?

    Dell. Next day on-site parts replacement if there are any failures. Slightly more expensive than putting it together yourself, but no chance that you will flock it up. From years of personal and professional experience they win hands down. End of thread.

    Funny stuff you have seen in the gym

    I think the worst thing you can do to your body is smoke cigarettes, closely followed by food and alcohol abuse. This is not gym related, but about idiots so it is kind of on topic. Smoking cigarettes increases the risk of blood clotting, which blocks the flow of blood in a vein or artery (can...

    Spotting

    I figure drop sets do the same thing as having a spotter give you a little helping hand.

    Spotting

    I agree with Shrek. In between sets I am usually absolutely hammered, it is all I can do to stand up straight and get my energy back. Body building isn't a team sport, if I wanted some friends I would play soccer. I also wouldn't trust a spotter who I didn't know, anyway. The whole question...

    Can you build muscle over 40 years of age?

    I was curious about that, I believe in the US it is fairly straightforward to get HRT through 'anti ageing clinics'. A doctor from the local medical Centre offered my grandmother in law hGH, but she has Alzheimer's disease. And to the original thread starter, diet and regular exercise is key...

    I cant swallow is that bad?

    Damn it, Hulk got to it first. If you want sound medical advice you have come to the right place! Most, if not all, members of this forum had studied medicine and are now ear nose and throat registrars. Incidentally I've heard anecdotal evidence of the special healing properties of semen and...

    New here.

    Welcome to the forum, and welcome to Australia. Australia is now the fattest nation on earth, just about everyone is overweight :-) I recommend you move to Queensland, a beautiful part of the world, with lots of laid-back people. I have a soft spot for Brisbane. And as for training and diet...

    What was the source? Where did you read this? My gut feeling says this is bullshit, but I am curious if it comes from a reputable source.
