    finger curls

    I highly doubt anyone from the strength section is gonna do finger curls but if Oni wants to do them, he can.

    adding life to old equipment

    I will post pics when I start the project. I actually originally purchased it as it was extremely cheap and I could make money from it but now I might keep it for my future plans for a pt studio as I know how hard old school equipment is to find. It will look good next to my Powertec cage ;)

    finger curls

    What's with all the shit talking? Some things work well for some and for others it wont work at all. As long as we're all lifting weights, trying to be bigger, stronger or both, what does it really matter?

    adding life to old equipment

    I've recently bought an old school Gold's Gym power rack (it's pretty bad arsed!), a couple of standard bars and weights. They've been left out in the weather and have some surface rust on them. What is the best way to clean the rust off? and What paint is suitable to repaint them with? Thanks.

    finger curls

    If you have grip problems, do hanging leg raises... They'll sort you out.

    Tr74r Multirack

    Also, doesn't require sleeves as it's made to fit oly weights.

    Tr74r Multirack

    Yes, get that! I have the same one (older version though) and it takes a beating. I don't use the lat tower anymore as I train for strength but it's good quality and it will last a life time. Sam and Matt are very helpful aswell and are more than willing to help out where they can.

    ABC BO220 or BOP220

    My understanding is that the BOP is an actual powerlifting bar whereas the other is just a normal oly gym bar...

    Personally, I would continue to save your money up and buy good quality the first time around. Even look for good quality second hand items on ebay or gumtree. The two links you provided are cheap and nasty looking equipment. Also, check out Sams Fitness... There's a link in my sig.

    ANTOINE VAILLANT - DEADLIFT 1 MONTH OUT PL MEET - YouTube I was just watching his videos today actually. It looks like he's doing a powerlifting comp on April 29th. Results should be interesting.

    Just a strength poll from another thread

    I just had a look at my old training diary and worked out my lifts. I nailed the 140kg squat in 2 months but could only manage 132.5kg/ 135kg after that for the rest of the year (had lower back problems). I nailed a 117.5kg bench 1 week before the year was out. I completely smashed the deadlift...

    purchase tractor tyre for trye flip excercise

    How do you know how much they weigh? I have a tractor tyre but I have no way of weighing it myself.

    Estimate on what this is worth.

    Generally it's worth whatever someone is willing to pay for it. Also, as a whole package or individually? Also, location? I might be interested in some of it ;)

    Body Image: Which body parts concern you?

    Gut is my biggest "issue" but I don't really care that much.
