    OHP from rack vs clean from floor

    If your doing decent cleans, so that the topic even matters than have fun catching it a few inches off your chest, when I catch a clean it lands on my delts/uppsr chest, and can feel the bar flexing/ bouncing, no way I am holding that just in my hands with the wrist bent right back... But yes...

    Rack or floor, my push press is the same. you just have to mess about with grip a tad more if you clean it.

    When should you wear a belt?

    Scott will a belt help support my back? I don't care if it helps me lift more. BUT if it will help to prevent repeated injuries. I would be keen to give it a go.

    Would you donate your body to science?

    The use of cadavers fir education purposes is an awsone teaching tool. Every year the anatomy schools have a memorial for all the families of the donated bodies. I am pretty sure uq has the ability to perform the plastinization process (ie Gunther) but on a smaller scale. The uq anatomy...

    Powerlifting/Weightlifting Gyms/Clubs in Brisbane

    when people think of a power lifting gym, they think cages, racks, platforms, chalk. While I admit Hw has has these items it doesn't have the typical dedicated setup. The equiprment that is there is pretty much just for the 4 capo boys. Jeff made a call on what he needs to have to run a...

    Time Between Heavy Workouts

    I would drag that out even longer, most programs run at around 12 weeks Work higher rep sets at the becoming and gradually work that down over the 12 weeks culminating in pb attempts. If your just focused on strength look at established programs, such as 531, ppp, sheiko etc. it looks...

    Powerlifting/Weightlifting Gyms/Clubs in Brisbane

    Your kinda confused... You need to walk through the health club known as health works to het to the cage that contains the gym.. I should add that when I make the 650km trip to Brisbane I go to PTC. Great atmousphere, great people, great equiptment. And Jay at Ptc you never train alone...
