    Pull downs

    Possibly the best ever, you got to lean forward and the angle of pull means no escape it doesn't need much weight to stimulate the back

    can someone double check my macro math?

    I'm going to try this cutting thing. So my understanding is that; Y=1 gram protein x 1 pound body weight (136) X=0.3 grams fat x 1 pound body weight (136) so I am 62 kg which is 136 pounds. (Y x 4) + (X x 9) = 544 + 367.2 = 911.2 The BMR thing suggested I eat 2,218.05 cals for my level of...

    Is there an alternative to Iron Edge in Melbourne?

    I am after bumper plates with a reasonable weight tolerance (and not so fat you can only fit four of them on the bar) I know that there are places like gym direct which have sets for $500-$700, but you have to order online. The only thing closely similar on Iron Edge is almost $2k. Are there...

    Rubber coated plates with steel inserts

    Hi all, Does anyone have any recommendations? I've got cheap rubber ones that leave black crap all over my hands and my barbell sleeves when I slide them on and off. These seem to be the best I can find http://aussiestrength.com.au/strength-equipment/weight-plates/rubber-coated-weight-plates.html

    Wanker's Hand

    Have any of you lot had experience with "Dupuytren's contracture"? I first noticed the annoying little lump in July. I haven't been doing any lifting since before that time (due to an unrelated medical issue), but it gets annoying pushing a lawnmower, so I would imagine it wouldn't be too good...

    How many of you record your lifting progress and how many go by "feel"?

    Carrying that little black book around in the gym or just grabbing that weight, seeing what feels right, and completing the set.

    Lee Priest Gives PCT Advice to Bodybuilders

    Post cycle therapy, or PCT, is a very serious matter. A lot of guys can lift plenty of weight after a cycle of steroids, but have a lot of difficulty raising something else in the bedroom. One reason I steer well clear of the good stuff. Lee never denies his steroid usage, so he will have no...
