    FS: 5 x 1kg Bulk Nutrients WPC (Salted Caramel)

    Hi. Haven't been doing the forum things for ages, but I have been lifting. Might even stick around this time. :D So, realised WPI is better for me, but I already ordered this lot of WPC. All sealed, kept in a cool place, bought very recently. Open to offers. Thanks guys. (I'm in Hobart, btw.)

    BN flavours

    Anyone tried the new Pina COlada? And, is there any chance they're going to offer 5x1kg instead of 1x5kg? Like, evar?! Fuuuuck, it's annoying to have just one flavour. :mad:

    Protein Brownies?

    Anyone got a recipe for these that works, as in you end up with something proteiny and tasty? I will be using whey protein, because that's all I have. It's not sweetened, but I have both brown sugar (and other kinds) and some stevia powder, as options there. Not too worried about...

    How do you breathe?

    Yeah, haha. For the big three, I mean. What's the best, most effective, safest way to breathe during each of the big three powerlifts? I think I know this already (and I hope so!) but shit, the more you read - on the internet - the less you know, y'know? :D

    Professional Whey tests?

    Anyone done or seen testing on Professional Whey's, uh, whey? I suspect they'd be fine, but it would be kinda hilariously ironic if they weren't, given their style of advertising and stuff. :p

    Thin plates

    Any idea where I could buy some really thin oly plates? They'd be for a pair of dumbbell handles I have lying around. Just want to be able to load them up as much as possible.

    Bulk Nutrients WPC samples review

    #1: Vanilla Smells like (mild) vanilla confectionary or the like. Not overwhelming. Tastes much the same, like a vanilla-ish milkshake, icecream, or other. Definitely not offensive, very smooth and easy to drink, would go with almost anything else too. Nice. #2: Banana Just for something...

    Buying the best belt you can in Australia

    How, and where? I've looked and looked. One site (Titan Australia) appears to be hacked to hell and back. Underground Elite's aren't available any more, and haven't been for ages (except the $140 belts, which seems like a lot to pay... is it?) Then there's all the other, probably lesser...

    foam rollers, pipes and balls, oh my!

    So, having heard great things about foam rolling, what would you recommend - an actual foam roller, a "rumble roller", a pipe with or without a wrap or some kind, tennis balls, or what? :confused: Lots of stuff out there. Just wondering what you've found to be the best.

    Dorian Yates interview on LondonReal

    No Bull 5 samples review (plus beef jerky!)

    Ordered 5 flavoured WPI samples, and peri-peri beef jerky, both of which had free shipping, which I thought was pretty reasonable. Just trying the first sample now. I'll update this thread when I try more. It's choc cherry. Smelled like fake cherry, in the little packet. Sort of smelled a bit...

    Deadlift frequency and volume

    Just wondering what you guys think is - or even better, have found to be - the best frequency and volume for deadlifts, and whether it's very different for novice lifters vs. intermediate vs. advanced. And if so, in what ways. For example, I'm probably still a novice lifter, pulling around...

    What wrist straps would you recommend?

    Preferably not too expensive (not sure how much I'll ever use them!) and/or with low cost shipping (so from Australia, or maybe from Amazon, say...) Just has to hold up to increasingly heavy shrugs, maybe some other pulls if/when I need them for that, and I might use them for front squats, if I...

    Coupla questions about "ingredients"

    FIrst of all, alcohol: The truth about alcohol, fat loss and muscle growth | Intermittent fasting diet for fat loss, muscle gain and health - what do you think about that? Right/wrong/other? And why. Next, sucralose. Is it safe... or will it fuck you up. Any genuine, comprehensive research been...

    SLDL technique

    I'd like to give stiff-leg deads a go. Where would I find solid info on form for that lift? Being trained is just not an option where I am: internet tutorials and shit like that is what I've got to go on. So they've gotta be good! :)

    When should you wear a belt?

    That's the question. I don't even own one, and I'm not lifting big yet, I must admit. But I don't want to risk anything I don't have to. Currently squatting ~125 and deadlifting ~165, and I honestly have no idea when a belt would be necessary... if ever! :) TIA. edit: Maybe this should go in...

    Brachialis pain (I think), when pressing

    It's the outside of the upper left arm - between the bis and tris, basically. It persists for some time, once I've done some pressing (happened the last three times now). Really messing with the presses (bench and overhead). Also, I'm a bit worried it could be something worse than just a minor...

    Cgbp

    I'm thinking of trying the good old close grip bench press (never nave, so far), to supplement the standard bench press. Just wondering what kind of angle your forearms should be at, when the bar is as low as it goes. Or, alternatively, what angle they might start at. I know there's a bunch of...

    Best high-protein, low-carb recipe sites?

    I know there's a lot of great recipes here - I'll be trying some soon - and I've already got CCM bookmarked :), but what about some other excellent places to look/bookmark? People's blogs in particular, I guess.

    WPI vs WPC (taste-wise)

    What's the difference? I only just tried WPC for the first time the other day (the first time I've tried any kind of "supplement", actually), and it's a pretty strong taste. Tastes like cow, lol. Or maybe powdered milk, a bit. Not the best, anyway. Is WPI much different? Stronger/weaker/other...
