    Mass gainers

    Cream in even milo is awesome... Definitely need to go out and buy some. Haven't have coffee with cream in years. Now that sounds amazing. Nice new way to mix things up a bit I think..

    Ah, okay. Thought you might have mean kj. But yeah, when I saw how many kcals it had, I added it to the shopping list. Pretty good for such a small/easy amount.

    Sorry to thread hijack, but just curious about the above. Is that a typo? (200mls = 3000 kcal) If it's not, what brand are we talking here, and why the hell isn't my fridge full of the stuff?!

    Protein Advice - ON Hydrowhey, Bulknutients WPI, NBS WPI or Bulkproteins WPI

    Yeah, that is why I'm looking for an alternative. It's great that it works for me, but it is a little too expensive. I find myself limiting the amount of lactose foods I eat because of the price. Or I'll just risk it and deal with the consequences. Thanks for the recommendation BN! Will be...

    Protein Advice - ON Hydrowhey, Bulknutients WPI, NBS WPI or Bulkproteins WPI

    Hey BN, Just wondering what Lactase caps you use and where you get them from. I've used lacteeze, but I've seen cheaper ones on eBay before. Cheers

    Craze

    Seen this on eBay quite a bit. What flavour did you get? Apparently the Lemon Rush is meant to be really good.

    Craze

    Yeah it seems a bit extreme for a PWO, especially when there is a whole range of others out there. They may not be the same as this one, but do you really want to spend that much money on it? Apparently 3 people do :confused: I put in a $50 offer. Wonder how long til it's shot down.

    Are peptides just a myth in Australia

    Most websites state that their products are not intended for human use, and are meant for research purposes. What their clients do with it once it leaves their warehouse is up to them.

    Stronglifts - A few concerns

    I assumed they would be more forgiving over normal deadlifts, which would probably help more when I get to bigger squatting weights. In terms of depth, it would be something like this: 310 lbs x 5 ATG Squats - YouTube Is there a specific way I should do it to make better use of my hamstrings?

    Stronglifts - A few concerns

    Hah, nice and simple. Thanks! Probably head to the gym in an hour or so. Is there any reason to do SLDL over deadlifts at this point?

    Stronglifts - A few concerns

    Okay, well that makes me feel better. I think I'll do it that way from now on, and when I'm able to do that weight (eg. 30kg) for 3x8 I'll try moving up the weight. I might start a log here soon, mostly for my benefit to motivate me to stick to it, and to keep track of how I'm going. I don't...

    Stronglifts - A few concerns

    I never really thought of that. It's definitely a good idea, just a matter of getting to 40kg first. After tonight, I feel comfortable moving up to 35kg with deadlifts, squats and rows, 30kg with bench and maybe 30kg overhead. I'll see how i go with those weights on Wednesday. I'm able to use...

    Stronglifts - A few concerns

    Awesome, I might get in contact with him soon and see what kind of price I can get on it. It's a good price as is, so I'll be happy either way. Might need to measure up the area first as well to make sure it will fit. Cheers fluffy. I'll save up some cash in the mean time till I can get...

    Stronglifts - A few concerns

    Wow, a lot of replies. Okay well, there seems to be some mixed opinions here. In the end, most of it seems to lead towards bumper plates being good for floor work. If I go the route of the rubber coated plates, are there any recommendations in terms of brand, online stores, etc that I...

    Building a Home Gym

    Don't worry random8, you're not alone. I'm in SA as well, and finding olympic gear or even racks second hand seems to be pretty hard. Those that are willing to part with their gear usually have it snapped up pretty quickly. But like nazzysmith said, we just have to wait it out and keep looking...

    Stronglifts - A few concerns

    @nazzysmith - I've been keeping an eye on eBay/gumtree, but it seems like no one is willing to give up their racks or Olympic gear. Knowing my luck, I'll buy it all brand new and I'll start seeing stuff pop up left, right and centre. But at least I'll have warranty and peace of mind. I'd love...

    My start here

    In terms of strength, it feels like (right now) I can make some good progress for most of the exercises at steady rate. I just got back from doing the PTC Routine about half an hour ago, this time using 25kg. All of the exercises went well except for overhead press. I could only manage 3x5 for...

    Stronglifts - A few concerns

    @D1cko - okay, I'll have a look around. Based on reviews, they sound like great bars, and I suppose when thinking about the long run it wouldn't be a bad idea, but for the price i feel like I'd be better off investing in quality plates and a squat rack with an average-good bar to get started...

    My start here

    Okay, that makes sense.I tried it out yesterday using the 20kg set weight. I managed to get through it pretty easily, the extra 5 Reps for squats made a difference though. I couldn't quite hit the ground on each rep, the set weights don't sit very high off the ground so I'll just need to work...
