    Knee sleeves

    Five year timeline of symptoms would lead me to look toward tendinosis (degeneration of the tendon), in which case anti inflams will not be terribly useful (which seems to be the case in the form of NSAIDs at least).

    Knee sleeves

    I bought a pair of Titan sleeves and, as Deep mentioned, they ripped after 4 sessions. I haven't yet received replacements (which will supposedly have the flaw fixed), so can't recommend them. I think Owen at PTC uses TK sleeves and they look thicker (almost like rubber) than the Titans imo.

    Not gonna lie, I enjoy using the leg press and chest press thing.

    How to make friends outside work, school etc

    If you are into motorcycles, Perth has arguably one of the largest / most organised motorcycle communities in Aus I believe: perthstreetbikes.com Apart from that, the advice of others in this thread is pretty on the money... get out there and pursue your interests and you will meet like minded...

    Do you think this man is fat?

    I don't think he is fat. Whoever said ~15% bodyfat I agree with. To be honest I'm surprised how not fat the average Australian male is. I am fatter than this guy, for reference :D

    Do you think this woman is fat?

    Pretty sure they are talking average in terms of data/bell curve - they are distilling population data into an 'average woman'. I mean she is obviously not a beacon of health / an active lifestyle.

    What age to leave home?

    I'm 23 now, and I still live at mums (well technically atm I don't, but I'll be moving back near the end of the year). As long as she doesn't kick me out, I have no issues remaining in the nest until such time as I can make a dent in a house / move overseas / get my business up and running.

    Ironmaster super bench vs gymdirect bench

    We have the gymdirect one (with the gap) at PTC Syd I believe... I don't rate it. I own the Ironmaster, am a fan. Solid, gives you inc/dec options without the gap. Edit: Seat on the ironmaster has never been an issue for me. I rarely use it as an actual seat though (eg for seated db press)...

    Squat: Worlds Worst Exercise

    The comments are great. I don't particularly care what some guy who started a conference for men to learn about women/dating thinks about resistance training.

    Rumble Roller

    Got mine yesterday. It's blue and a bit squishy, I thought it was gonna be solid. I find it pretty tame... little bit disappointed, although I'll see how it goes over long term use.
