    Have a look at my PPL Program. Then post a good comment.

    A change of program is needed at this in my lifting shenanigans to freshen things up in the gym. I like the PPL program because I want to reduce volume per session but increase frequency and intensity as I embark on a lean bulk over the next few months. I have done my best to achieve a 2:1 pull...

    The state of the powerlifting/strength forum

    To quote a competitive lifter from my facebook feed today: "that forum is the bottom of the barrel." If the powerlifting section is to ever draw competitive lifters then it needs legitimate and serious discussion about the sport. This is what it needs, not a bunch of non-competitive idiots...

    Height to waist ratio

    BCAA ratio significance
