    How much water weight can you lose in sauna?

    Sorry one more thing, since i put a bit of info in there, i may aswell explain the bit about carbs incase someone else refers to this. If you REALLY need to get down weight wise you can eliminate carbs from the diet (ie, 24hrs out) BUT its best to avoid this (ie diet 4 weeks out or...

    How much water weight can you lose in sauna?

    @Dancelot Brother, you'll get down easy. I've had to do this a few times before, and also for 3 years when I used to row. Ideally you don't want to drop weight 2 days out (your body won't be 100%, but i'll tell you how to get as close as poss to it at the end of this), but thats the situation...

    ProRawOne Results

    Markos, Re: Maxs' diet. What does he do on a non training day? Just do the same thing - only consume carbs later in the evening. And what time does he usually train? Also, i have another question regarding max and your other clients. I see alot of them train up to 6 times a week, doing power...

    CAPO Vic State Titles

    Markos, whats the deal with interstate lifters competing here? I might not be able to make the NSW one now, but want to get a qualifying score in for the Nats. Is it sweet to qualify at Vic's?

    Big Single Ply Squats

    The Clean And Jerk

    cool vid/write up. I'm trying to learn this myself. I have done a few cleans, but never jerk above the head. Biggest question - what leg should go back when you split? Does it matter?

    ProRaw IRONEDGE Rep Challenge

    Hey Markos. Quick Q re this comp. We have a 2 minute time limit per lift right? So does that mean you go to failure or do as many as you can in 2mins? Could i say come out, do a C&P, then wait 90sec's and do another one with 20secs to go on the clock? And how likley is it that you'll do PR2...

    ProRaw......its official

    O Ok, yea that makes sense now. Thanks guys. So Oly bars usually have more flex in them right? Is more flex better or worse for squatting then? I suppose if you can try catch the 'bounce' it would be good? Yip I'm Alex. thanks =D PB's across the board so I was happy. Nup, straight into...

    ProRaw......its official

    cheers. I don't understand though, wouldn't that make it harder to lift? I did notice alot of flex in the bar (when the loaders were putting 300+ on the bar the weights were still on the ground!) I thought if the bar has more flex then the energy transfer is less effiecent - some power is lost...
