    Proper use of squat Rack

    Oh I long for the day when I can walk into a gym and only see a minimum 6-8 squat racks, lifting platforms and only flat and incline benches and a giant bucket of chalk in the middle. And NO air con. Just fans. No machines. Of course you'd see 6-8 guys going curls and rows and SLD's in the...

    What's your total?

    Sorry to post again, but I've got a confession to make. My deadlift was made using straps. Sorry guys. I've let the team down.

    What's your total?

    370kg at 85kg. Maybe mid 20% bf so I'd like to reduce that to 80kg and see how I go. Sq 130kg. DL 170kg. OP 70kg. All on same day. I don't bench press so maybe not a proper comparison. I hate benching. Terrible at it anyway. And that above was after 12 weeks of a basic Bill Starr routine -...

    Does Olympic weightlifting build strength?

    Bill Starr reckons deadlifts are useful for everyone including weightlifters....but sparingly. And says that after learning it and building a solid base that every 2nd week is enough for the lift for most people. After all, he did set a national deadlift record by not actually doing the lift...

    good mornings

    Good Morning's once per week on your light day is enough. I love these. Best was 100kg for 10 reps. Would feel sick and dizzy afterward, but worth it.

    Topic of the Week - How Much Protein Should A Bodybuilder Consume?

    Why does everyone quote lbs? Wrong country... Anyway, I stopped trying to take in extra protien. No more shakes, kinda over milk. Maybe not much more then recommenced for non exercising people. And still see ok results. Eating WAY more vegetables too. That;'the key to the whole deal. Never felt...

    Test Booster Trial - anyone interested?

    Don't wanna be the party pooper, but I thought there was no proof ever in the history of science that tribulus ever did anything to test levels? Bsc did this on the old Neil Garder forums - ah...those were the days - I asked the Bsc rep not to send me free trib products, just send me...

    My 2200 cal bulking diet using Max's guidelines

    True. I'd do a whole body routine 3 times per week Bill Starr style - squatting 3x, power cleans, good mornings (100kg x 8-10), Presses etc. Do 20 mins on the Concept 2 Rower 'till I felt like spewing, Then maybe do some sprints outside. On off days I'd do hill sprints. Play 1-2 hours of touch...

    Pure/Unflavoured Protien Powders, what do they taste like?

    I've only ever bought unflavoured protein - mostly WPC - from various aussie company's selling direct. Dunno where you guy's get yours from 'cause all the ones I get taste ....um......er.....unflavoured. That's why they call them unflavoured. There is no flavour. And when mixed with milk -...

    Fast Food Monstrosities: Why Would Someone Eat a 1400 Calorie Sandwich?

    The op asked why would you eat a 1400 cal sandwhich. My calories per day are only 100-200 cal's more so if i find myself in a situation where I can only eat one meal, the 1400 cal big boy is it!

    A question on Strength: Intensity & Volume loading

    Such a small thing - the hip drive, yet such a hard and un-natural thing to do - for me. Maybe why I can push press more then I can power clean. Damn it!!

    Are You Kidding Me? Maxing Out on Squats and Good Mornings Every Day?

    I worked as a furniture removalist for 12 years. Bloody hard work. Did some weights at the same time. Played sports on weekends, rode my motorbike. Squeezed plenty in and no idea what a 'de-load week' was. I guess we kinda get used to the idea nodays that less is more and any more then 30 mins...
