    What's the point in bulking

    Also, after a bulk you find you can eat more while cutting down, due to extra muscle mass gained. Something i enjoy.

    Lifting quotes

    One I read today from Harry Selkow which i enjoyed. 'We squat, bench, and deadlift, and we do pull-ups. If your program lacks any one of these components, you don’t have a program in my opinion.' Amen.

    PTC Perth Opening?

    The Mill is another decent option in perth. Anywhere with like minded and experienced lifter's is the go, whether they run the gym or not.

    What's the point in bulking

    After beginner gains iv'e struggled to increase any strength and size without fat gain. I always eat clean, just when gaining i add carbs brekky, post workout and drink some milk through the day. Then will cut, losing the carbs and milk. I wish i could gain and stay lean but i just can't crack it.

    the what u saw at the gym TODAY thread

    ^ Yeah don't get me wrong, if someone ask's between set's how long i have left, i alway's offer to work in, will even help them change weights. I jus hate the 'are you using that?' bullshit approach!

    Back to muay thai

    3 hr's a night 6 day's a week? whats an average session look like? When i was boxing session's would last 1.5 hours most. If i was was sparring would be done in under an hour. Thats enough time for few km run, few round of skipping, shadow boxing, bad work, pad work and some strength and...

    Triceps

    triceps work everytime you press. The go-to's for me have always been cgp's and dip's, if needed maybe some cable push down's. Skull crushers etc don't agree with elblow's too well imo Whats your bench press number's? what weight do you dip with?

    the what u saw at the gym TODAY thread

    Saw a new bloke to site pull six plates for 5 last night. It was also probably the most explosive iv'e seen, needless to say dude was a beast.

    the what u saw at the gym TODAY thread

    If that was me, i would of said 'i'm done when i'm done champ' and went on to perform the rest of my workout in the rack. Nothing worse then people that ask 'are you using that' when you are in the middle of a workset.

    Topic of the Week - How Important Is Warming Up?

    When i dead i start explosively with 1 plate and work up to 4 or 5 for work sets adding a plate each set. For bench, squat and press i just do a set on 1 plate, quick stretch in rest period and straight to working weight.

    Experience on Wendler 5/3/1

    I won't be looking to alter the program at all on the 4 main lift's. Iv'e never had a periodized program with weigths laid out for me, so that's part of the attraction of the 5/3/1. I'm aware that the program is good for gradual gain's which is what i'm chasing, as i said previously, i just...

With 2-3 conditioning day's...
