    Bar-bell bench press

    I am not a big bloke, so its a bit wider than a "tad" for my frame. The width is chosen specifically for the vertical forearms, rather than being "wide" or "narrow".

    Bar-bell bench press

    I use a grip such that my forearms are vertical at the bottom of the lift, the outside of my hands are just inside the rings. I use this as it is the most efficient position. Rep range: always 5.

    Is this accurate for anyone?

    And when they match up, they were probably all copied from the same original source which was an estimate ;)

    Is this accurate for anyone?

    Bingo. Perhaps even more relevant, all the kcal values you find for various foods / meals are just estimates, often wildly inaccurate estimates. But its all better than just fumbling around in the dark.

    Very Simple Cutting Question/s

    1. High intensity (heavy weight) / low volume, something like the exercises from starting strength but rather than trying to increase the weight each workout, you are trying to maintain your current strength levels or maybe make some very marginal gains.

    Wife want's to workout with me

    The program itself is ideal. As far as training with your significant other goes... I guess it depends on how you see the time at the gym, if its "you" time, that could be problematic, if not, dat squat ass.

    the what u saw at the gym TODAY thread

    Young kid asked for advice on how to do squats properly as its his first week in the gym, lead him away from the smith machine over to the power rack, direct to rippetoe vids on youtube. There is hope for the human race.
