    Gear Order

    Dunno if anybody is interested but I'm putting an order TODAY in to House of Pain in the states. A bit of the Inzer stuff is 15% off the already cheap US prices so If anybody wants to split shipping ($40 or $80 flat rates) let me know.

    Nose Tork

    If you're not used to it, then yeah it could put you off. I started using it by covering half of the opening with the cap. Now I can take a good wiff when I do use it. Whether you'll respond better, I'd say just try it and see.

    No worries. Not sure his exact reasons why he doesn't lockout in training. Might have a look around for an interview later if I can be fucked lol. Thanks to the massive chest his ROM is like a 2 board lol. He supposedly has 20 inch forearms, which is riduculous. But he failed almost at full...

    100kg x100 reps

    This is INSANE! Props man. I've done 100 on leg press before but on squats its a whole other level!! I don't think I could count in that state haha

    Nose Tork

    I've used both, and used smelling salts back when I was fighting and while they're good they're IMO not comparable. I got Nose Tork with an order from House Of Pain last year and I opened the bottle fully and almost dropped the bottle. Eyes watered up immediately lol. It was even better when I...

    Thanks man, I'll give it a read now =) Failing at deads at the top is definitely the most common of the three but it does happen for the other two. I don't usally like using the cream of the crop as examples but look at Eric Spoto, bar flies of his chest and bombs at what most would call...

    German Volume Training - BOOM!!!

    Haven't heard anyone talk about GVT for ages lol. Great for mega pumps, but can be a bit much. Here are the original GVT articles from TMAG from Charles Poliquin, before he gained alot of popularity and all the Poliquin Coach bullshit. T NATION | German Volume Training T NATION | Advanced...

    Using both box squats and regular paused/explosive squats for DE days is something that I've found yields the best of both worlds. Time will tell if it holds true lol I wouldn't say no one misses at the top when it comes to raw lifters. I can think of a handful of my strongman mates who miss...

    Planned deload's like in 5/3/1 are useful but I think even then it's a bit much taking one every 4 weeks. Thats 3 months out of the year deloaded. I do my deloads as follows: Week 1-3 Normal Training Week 4 Deload on ME work, assistance only. Work up to a heavy double on DE days. Week 5-6...

    Eric Spoto didn't get his 716 bench. Stan Efferding didn't get his 905 squat

    Yeah that could have been a factor too. Hopefully he'll plan better for his next one.

    All time squat records

    Not trying to make him look like an idiot, just showing there are examples that he could not think of. Was having a laugh with the steak one though =) Heat loss, as used in house insulation (somewhat related to how Pink and Green batts get their R rating) Q = U*A*ΔT Combustion of...

    Eric Spoto didn't get his 716 bench. Stan Efferding didn't get his 905 squat

    I was spewing they missed them, but considering the circumstances I can sort of see why. By all accounts Rhino takes an insane amount of time to warm up. This actually cut into the meet and he had to miss his first attempt because he wasn't ready. So he had to take his 2nd as his opener pretty...

    Doing Max Effort (ME) Deads all the time is going to be pretty harsh. There's a reason why a lot of people can squat heavy multiple times a week, yet can't pull heavy every week for a extended period of time. The stress from full range pull is a lot to recover from. Like Oni said, a few other...

    How to - tricep training, by Rippetoe

    Sort of. My squat has been annoying me for the past few weeks, so if I can get it back on track I'll compete in a small gym comp in December. If not ill just help out on the day. Chins/pull-ups... Only a small difference man, all that matters is that you're grabbing the bar and pulling your...

    How to - tricep training, by Rippetoe

    I've trained there a few times over the last couple of months. I usually train alone, so it's good to get some better lifters looking at form etc. Great bunch of guys. How'd you know that btw? Didn't think anybody on here trained there? The bigger diameter attachments/bars generally won't let...

    Shoulders

    The one thing I think that everyone has neglected to ask is the OP's weight? If he's using 5kg DB's and think his front and rear delts get hyyyuuge after a few sets I think something's amiss. Rix - Give us some more stats if you don't mind. Current weight, height and lifts would be good. I...
