    aaah? lump on top of shin??

    I actually don't have any knee pain, but on my right leg where the patella tendon attaches I think there's something wrong. Here is a pic of the hard lump that is there. And I mean hard, it feels like bone, zero 'squish' when you touch it. It hurts chronic if it's bumped (i.e. if the bar hits it...

    Muscle size pumped vs cold

    What determines how much your muscles increase in size when pumped vs cold. What are the factors involved, and is it similar for every person or does it vary greatly? I feel with myself that there is a big difference in physical size when pumped vs cold. After training my upperbody and looking...

    Home wrecking...

    So, is it your fault/are you seen to be in the wrong if you "steal" a chick away from her current relationship because she chooses to leave her current partner because she likes you better and you have more to offer?

    Bro Science

    The Bro Science Thread - AusBB's Strength Wasteland Discussion Thread Post up your bro science, or bro science that you've heard. Up until last week I didn't even know this word existed, so I looked it up on the internet urban dictionary, and I found the definition quite amusing :D

    "Form"

    FOR F#$KS SAKE. Why are there people doing less than 100kg squats, bench presses and deadlifts spending more time analysing their "form" then actually lifting? IT'S NOT ROCKET SCIENCE squat - put the weight on your back and sit down bench - press the weight deadlift - pick the weight up I...

    How big/small is the gap between your 20rep weight and 1RM weight?

    Just wondering how much difference you have between your 20 rep squat and 1 rep max squat weight? For me it is about 40kg. Looking through other people's training journals, my gap makes my 1rm look weak, but on the other hand, what does that say about people with a larger gap? Could this...

    Creatine

    "We all know that creatine increases power and strength and there are probably two reasons why this occurs: It definitely re-generates the muscle’s immediate source of energy – ATP it increases muscle size" ^ Are the above 2 points what you'd call "facts"? Are they tried and proven? If so, why...

    Posing/Flexing in the mirror

    Posing/Flexing in the mirror, how much do you do it? Is it good/bad? Personally, I love it. It keeps me motivated. At home everytime I walk into the bathroom it's *BANG*, fuck, sometimes I walk into the bathroom just to flex lol. At the gym, after I've done arms chest and back etc, I have no...

    Crazy Idea. plus, some bonus rambling! aaahhh

    Is there a way to workout how long your body takes to digest food (i.e. get it out your stomach)? Might be a crazy idea but wouldn't this be a good way for me to workout meal portion size for desired daily meal frequency? (without feeling like a stuffed animal all day or starving like an...
