    Squat technique

    Just to expand on what I said earlier, sometimes what feels right or wrong to a person with limited mobility or minor joint dysfunction (which most people have) isn't a good indicator of whether their form is good or bad. That's why it's so important to get it checked by someone else, either in...

    Squat technique

    Yeh I reckon depending on how you sit in/get up from a chair it could be very similar, or very different! And there are different variations on the movement and initial positioning. (I don't just mean Olympic vs Powerlifting style either, foot position, angle, knee movement are coached...

    After squatting for some time now and learning primarily from books, videos, Internet, I would strongly recommend heading to a strength training gym and getting proper coaching. Squatting (like deadlifting) is not 'hard' to learn, but it's easy to do wrong and easy to injure yourself with little...

    Where do you train in Perth

    Alrighty then! Guess my question was, at this stage do you think I would make *faster* progression on PTCs program. I'm not too phased, as you said I am still making progress. I just don't want to be at it in two years time and still have crap lifts. Cheers though.

    Beginners program

    Ok little background and then an honest question. I'm 6'5" and weigh around 95kg, pretty low bf. I started Bill Starr's 5x5 but hurt my wrist doing cleans (crap technique - my bad) after about two weeks, then read about and switched to Stronglifts 5x5, and have been progressing on it for...
