    Brett Gibbs from NZ gets another record

    He doesn't actually cut much weight. He's just short and massive (and has apparently been competing since he was 14). Raw numbers are something like 280/180/305.

    Robert Wilkes Capo

    How on earth can you defend a claim that it's an ineffective policy? It works within PA, GPC and CAPO choose to except themselves and ADFPF has no reason to exist separately from PA apart from a couple of vendettas. As far as I see it, you're trying to claim that public policy is bad because...

    so just found out there is a power lifting club near me

    They've been turning up to a lot of the Hawthorn meets recently. Tend to have a couple of technical issues but generally decent novice lifters

    Middle Age Men Using Testosterone Care About Quality Of Life Not Cheating

    It's actually pretty rare. Much rarer than HRT in women because by it's nature it's a lifelong supplementation and because it requires injection as opposed to oral supplementation. WADA (and by extension ASADA) have a policy of denying any TUE for TRT.

    Super Cup of Titans

    I lived up there last year, was placed at the hospital there. I thought Aquarius was basically dead Vince trains a few guys for PL specifically, Peter trains there mostly. Not sure if anything came of it, but Vince and Joel were going to talk about cheaper access to his gym for the club members...

    Super Cup of Titans

    Go up to the club and talk to Aaron or Joel, they both have home set ups as well. Plus at least one of Josh/Karl/Ethan/Jack usually turns up on a Saturday or a Sunday. They can't train on tues/thurs or before 4/5 because of the school though. Alternatively keep training at whichever of Fit or...

    2014 Federal Budget

    Of the $7, $5 goes into the research fund, $2 goes to the GP. The research grant sounds good in principle. The problem with it is that there is no way to waive the fee. Currently if you work at a clinic with a gap payment and your patient is an 83 year old on a pension who needs to come in 12...

    2014 Federal Budget

    I can tell you right now that the changes to medicare will result in worse overall healthcare in Australia at a higher cost (to the community, as well as to individuals). I don't have the level of knowledge to speak about anything else, but every statement from a government minister defending...

    Questions to officials of different powerlifting federations

    Bazza, I've hit the safeties before in comp with a 170 kg equipped bench. I nearly bombed due to that and started giving myself more margin with my safety heights. The safeties that currently exist on an eleiko bench are already long enough to cover most people's chests, we just all choose to...

    Have you ever felt "guilty" or "ashamed" from steroid use?

    And before you point out that thing from UpToDate as disagreeing with me, no it isn't. It's the difference between "can, sometimes in some patients" and "will in a significant portion of patients and you need to watch for it". UpToDate is American and focuses fairly heavily on defensive medicine.

    Have you ever felt "guilty" or "ashamed" from steroid use?

    Aspirin: "Aspirin was the first discovered NSAID. Dose dependent liver injury is accepted as the prevalent mechanism. Liver toxicity rate is very low currently since aspirin has been replaced by paracetamol and ibuprofen in pediatric patients and in various rheumatic diseases." Ibuprofen...
