    [Article] When a final knockout is needed for stubborn fat...

    I was also told by a naturopath that zinc is best consumed at night. Something to do with how it is absorbed.

    About becoming a personal trainer

    Michelle Bridges hasn't sold out. She does know her stuff and is incredibly passionate about it. I just don't agree with her style of training. Both were highly successful trainers with a relatively high profile before the show.

    Who can do Muscle Ups?

    The false grip is the hardest part! Feels very unnatural. I worked on doing cable rows with the false grip to help strengthen my wrists.

    About becoming a personal trainer

    Contestants on the Biggest Loser are just like everyone else. When they don't stick to their healthy eating and fitness regime, the weight comes back on. If you can't lose weight when you are isolated in a house with nothing to do but exercise, have all of your meals built for you by a...

    About becoming a personal trainer

    Who cares if a man is an idiot if he looks like Brad Pitt? All the PTs in the media are a bit hardcore and mostly connected to The Biggest Loser.

    Treadmill VS Road ?

    Footprint is a gimmick, but so is any running store that has a treadmill. Golden Rule of footwear sales- get shoes on feet and they will sell.

    Who can do Muscle Ups?

    I learnt how to do them on rings. Could never get more than one though.

    Treadmill VS Road ?

    I just checked out that list. It recommends Paul's Warehouse. That list is bad!

    Treadmill VS Road ?

    The TAF guys would lynch you for saying that Katie! Actually, you will find that a lot of their staff are physio, pod and biomechanic students, so they know their stuff. The fitprint is more about marketing than anything, but it sells shoes! Running Science are really good, have heard good...

    Treadmill VS Road ?

    EdCid is right- it's a lot easier to cheat on the road!

    Treadmill VS Road ?

    Asics and Brooks do not make the best running shoes. It is a massive fallacy. There are shoes on the market that do a better job than Kayanos for a much smaller price tag. People assume they are and know nothing about the other footwear on the market. Nike Frees are only suitable for those...

    Treadmill VS Road ?

    People have a different stride and strike action of the road than they do on a treadmill. Treadmill runners tend to propel themselves upwards rather than forward, road running tends to work the leg muscles more due to undulations in the surface and propelling yourself forward takes more effort...

    Barefoot running

    Unless it is causing you injury or you are looking at some serious running training, wouldn't worry about it too much. Are you in Sydney? I can ask through work for some good contacts or even training groups run by coaches if you are interested. PM if you want some details! One the last...

    [Article] Should Semenya be gender Tested?

    South Africa were told to test her. They should have had it sorted before she had to tolerate this humiliation. Those involved in Athletics have known about this since she first competed. The question was raised in part because she only started training and competing about a year ago. What...

    100 burpees Challenge!

    Spoke about this with my trainer. He said that it is was part of the test to get on 'Gladiators'.

    Coffee good or bad?

    Don't like to have too much coffee, but def find it helps up the intensity of the workout. But too much and I get the shakes.

    That photo essay was amazing! Can't believe that soft drink has managed to infiltrate almost every family. We just didn't have it in the house and still don't now.

    Powerlifting Program

    In other words, 'I have people who ask for my help and appreciate it. No need to help those who are rude, demanding and ignore advice'. Modo, we are really lucky to have people like Markos and Fadi on the forum. Be grateful for their advise and experience.

    Jeans for $20? Inner city rent for a two bedder for only $350? Where is this mystical place you speak of? I can't imagine that a couple living on $450 a week could even eat!

    callouses

    Because then they are probably an accountant. (Not that there is anything wrong with that. Please note that I do have good friends who are accountants.)
