    Steroids killing young men.

    Looks like I made up the 80% figure or got it from someone random at some point, I can't find a citation for it. General idea of "most medical research is trash" can be cited all over the place, most recent place I've read it is from BMJ. How to read a paper: Getting your bearings (deciding...

    Steroids killing young men.

    No. On the other hand, if you look up that recent study that was reported as showing that Vitamin E caused prostate cancer, that was a shitty study which was harder to tell was a shitty study.

    Steroids killing young men.

    Fuck, lost my message. Anyway, Neddysmith and lex, you two are both retarded. If you don't even understand the difference between amoxicillin, benzylpenicillin and phenoxymethylpenicillin, how dare you comment on the professional ability of those who do? Especially when it's based on lack of...

    Yep, or on consecutive days. You can also split it up as squat/bench in the morning and second squat or second bench in the night, or split it up by having the bench offset one day forwards, so you do the squats and deads on m/w/f and the bench on t/t/s. None of them is inherently superior as...

    Massive false equivalence there. Pretty typical of you to be so wrong.

    Knee Sleeves

    Not really. Methyl salicylate+aspirin could possibly push you into acute salicylism/acidosis. I'd mostly be worried about the gastric ulceration/increased risk of cardiac events from the orals.

    ringo_191; Watch what happens. When she starts with her hips low, they shoot up because her lower back isn't strong enough to hold her posture off the floor.

    Knee Sleeves

    Half and half. The NSAIDs have a greater effect on the area that you take them, so when you take it orally a lot of the effect goes into the stomach. Technically it could still happen with IV NSAIDs, but those are pretty rarely used and never in the long term. I've got no idea about the...

    Knee Sleeves

    Methyl salicylate/diclofenac/other topical NSAIDs will, and wont give you the gastric ulceration issues that oral ibuprofen long-term will. And the point of menthol creams is to overload the nerve carrying the pain signals with burning instead, so you don't feel the pain. It does have a...

    Deadlift issues

    Wow, you managed to insult each other while agreeing with each other. Basically everything everyone's said is right, except A. Aiming for an arched spine. Aim for a neutral or slightly more curved than neutral spine and B. "deadlift should be explosive, like an Olympic lift". Do each rep as...

    Those actually aren't me. My reddit account is cochra, has about 5 posts on it. Also, I'm only a medical student, not qualified yet.

    Geared lifting

    I gave direct examples of a guy who still competes raw at an age at which Clint said people don't. If you want I'll go through a bunch of score sheets and pick out the names of everyone over 50 competing raw. He's just wrong. You don't hear about the 50 year olds because you don't turn up to...

    Geared lifting

    Raw M2+ lifters aren't uncommon, I mentioned Wim because he's M4. Equipped M2+ lifters aren't uncommon either, but the ones I know don't complain any less about their aching joints.

    Geared lifting

    That entire video is basically him trying to justify using equipment as a training crutch. I call bullshit on it all anyway, regular equipped training beats me up way more than raw training. Oh, and "you don't see 60 year old raw lifters around". Wim van Weenen is over 70 and competing raw...

    Spartacus, if you read through the last few pages of this thread, you'll notice something interesting. Everyone involved in powerlifting is telling you to fuck off, while those not involved are sitting around saying "sad state of affairs when you can't comment". There is a reason for this...

    If you need to ask here, then even clen is too much. If you or "your friend" must use, at least do some research and learn what the fuck you are doing.

    You know, I think he'd get more out of putting the straps up on that multiply poly suit than he gets out of "bouncing" off soft, compressible foam.

    Aah well, I liked my version. I still don't think he'd have had much to say about it.
