Is it? I like the idea that what I do I do with my own physical strength, not with the help of bench shirts, wraps or multiply squat suits. cheers for the link, take your time.

Despite being primarily a bodybuilder I wanna be as raw as I can. I'd use a belt, lifting shoes but not straps or knee wraps. Can you ebay link me? I guess. I just hate specialisation. This has only really developed since I started Starr, my guess is because the volume I'm deadlifting...

for the entire body. Every exercise I do hits the shoulders, but in particular the overhead press and bench.

I'm anti-strap. No :( I do use gloves... No, I only train core lifts. I probably should use a hooked grip, but I never learnt how in the first place and introducing them now would require a serious drop in weight used. brb, gotta pick my bro up from a party. btw, got a free...

Solid lifts and good luck with your recovery.

Breeze got the deadlift point so I'll hit up the others. You identified the problems yourself. They are too difficult to load and too technical. Don't get me wrong, the body still moves through space to a greater extent than a press but its just too difficult to quantify. I'd rather pick 5-6...

I've really sucked with back mass, my traps, rhomboids and general 'thickness' is huge but I haven't put on much width. I need a chinning bar but they cost money and take away from my minimalist approach (me, my bar, my bench and squat stands) btw dude my deadlift hasnt budged, my grip cant...

they were really nice to me on the phone. I dont think their equipment range is as good as gymandfitness though (the muscle motion commercial quality rack and their range of barbells is to die for). 200kg of pure awesomeness.

clean grip or go home though man :(

I can't, as soon as I go deep the bar wants to fall off my shoulders. crappy torso/legs ratio :( thinking about doing the bent row with 5x5 to drive its progress, but at the same time bent rows arn't exactly a progressive exercise.

thanks man. so over 5x5.

Breeze what do you reckon of my new routine? Saturday 5x5 Squat 5x5 Bench/Press (alternating) 3x10 Bent row **3x15 Weighted Sit Ups** Monday 2x5 Squat (80%) 3x5 Bench/Press 1x5 Deadlift **3x15 Weighted Sit Ups** Wednesday 1x5 Squat 1x5 Bench/Press 1x5 Bent row **3x10 Close-Grips** **3x10...

I dont know what your contact hours are but just pack one big meal on campus. I go for the chips, double patty hamburger and diet coke combo for $8.50. You only need 4 big meals a day.

Why would they need to know? they should just bless the pancakes and they'll have enough for everyone. Sooo wouldn't mind going to their meeting tonight for the lulz. Btw, another awesome thing about uncle: food at the zuki is mad a cheap.

I feel the same. My friends got up me 'but they protect students and look at all the campaigning they've done' but couldn't name anything. Unions don't seem to do anything apart from funding wackjob societies like the medieval society and socialist alliance. In other news the christians...

I've played bass for 6 years. Used to be very serious, now I play in a covers band. It can be a very frustrating instrument - its easy enough to learn but difficult to write music on and difficult to show off to friends unless you're really very good. If you're starting off I'd recommend a...

FUCKING AY They really got shitty at me a the library when I told them I didn't care. So did my friends 'but unions protect us & shit...' The chick with the poster of julia gillard on her wall was not happy.

Note the 'closer to god' part :P

Its more complex than that. Deadlifts are only done for 1x5 because they're brutally taxng on lower backs and hamstrings. Coupled with squats this is a recipe for over training. Many advanced lifters can only deadlift once a fortnight. I'd recommend them in lower reps too so that form can...

This with 120+kg = pain, pain, pain :P also the slow concentric would limit the amount of weight you can use no?
