    Torn between CrossFit & Strength Training

    But...but.. Mr Glassman promised me that crossfit would make me a better BB than a natty BB, and give me a 700b deadlift, he not lie to me?

    Bulk Nutrients

    Protein direct is good, protein is on par with BN, and they're very open about where they source their protein powder (i.e. from large diary companies) and the whole BS behind the sup industry.

    Off-topic-but-still-related-to-PL-thread

    If you're only going to take advice from guys who never went to the dark side, then you'll have a fucking short list of guys to listen to (no Rip, no Wendler, no Simmons.... the list goes on)

    Eric Spoto 700lb Bench at Animal Cage

    I read that he said he failed last time because there was a too long wait between when he warmed up and when he went for his first lift (took like an hour from when he warmed up to lifting apparently). If so taking a last warm up for first lift might not be a bad idea.

    Squatting shoes

    You can DL in them, although you have to make an effort to lean back at the start of the pull. It uses a bit more quads off the ground. I train in mine and then swap to flats before a comp.

    Just about to buy a new powerlifting belt?

    I have a lever belt for squatting, and a single prong for deadlifting. For my next belt I'll probably get my brother to get me an Inzer Forever belt from the US.

    PTC style gym in Melb

    It's no PTC, but bodyworld balaclava is a proper gym (i.e allows chalk, has power-racks, a deadlift platform etc). I believe that the St Kilda Powerlifting Club is based there.

    Plate under heels for assistance in pushing through heels

    I DL in oly shoes, but only because my right oly shoe has been altered to add 1cm to the sole to account for the fact that I have uneven leg lengths.
