    Post Your Injury Stories!

    Seems a lot of people on here are getting injured lately, I thought it might be a good idea for everyone to post their stories in the one place, include how it happened, what you did wrong, and what you are doing about it, how far back it's put your training etc etc, Cheers, Morgan Posted via...

    Are squat Shoes REALLY raw?

    I was thinking about it the other day, and in a RAW lifting comp, are you allowed to use lifting shoes? If they do help balance you out better and people can lift more with them, isn't it giving you an unfair advantage? I'm not looking to start a fight, more of a discussion Cheers, Morgan.

    Your Favourite?

    What is your favourite exercise and why? Mine would have to be weighted chin ups / weighted dips, I find them to be one of the toughest exercises in my workout and I am always fighting for another rep each visit, they're the most satisfying for me. What about the rest of you lot? Cheers

    Program / Diet Help Needed please :)

    Sorry guys, I know these threads pop up every 2nd day but I'm really after some honest opinions.

    Quitting Smoking

    I've made the decision to quit smoking at the end of the month, I can't be serious about gym/diet and still pump 25 smokes into my system a day. My question, should I expect an improvement in my lifts afterwards? ie - improved lung capacity = more oxygen = more strength etc?

    Smith machine squats vs Leg Press

    I have been doing both lately just to get a feel but I am starting to think that the leg press is better, I noticed as I am going heavier with squats (120kg+) I am starting to get funny feelings in my knees/lower back, I have had my form checked by multiple trainers and they say it's AOK, do...
