    Cheating. Is it Ever Ok?

    Wise words Darkoz. Bella, you need to tell your friend to back off, she is a married woman and is obviously in a marriage that is having trouble (whether her husband knows/is responsible for or not). Your friend is taking advantage of this situation for his own personal needs, this is wrong and...

    guys- your reaction to this pic

    Totally agree, but hope my wife and I are from the old school (I know I am) but time tells all I guess. Hate to even think of such things (breaking up) to be honest as I am happy to stay with my woman forever and a day.

    Squat 5 times a week

    Most I ever did was 3 times on the beginner routine. But can't see why not, plenty do, I suppose it depends on how you can recover/adapt to it. I like twice a week mostly, one heavy one lighter.

    DB Squats

    Yes you may be right Oni, I'm no expert, I just remember doing that sort of stuff from high school (bloody long time ago). I can remember my teacher telling us to think of a bolt being undone with a spanner, the force moment is provided by the nut and the moment arm is from the nut to the end of...

    DB Squats

    Hmm, that is not a dumbbell squat, that is a goblet squat I thought. DB squat is when you hold the DBs beside body aren't they? On that principle you would be correct with the moment arm as the force moment would pivot from a stand alone centre not a moving one.

    DB Squats

    Hmmm, I'm not 100% sure on this but I think Darkos is right. The moment force must be able to pivot (rotate) from a central place ie barbell on back, where as the dumbbell would not be in a stand alone center, thus creating a principle moment, or a moment of movement from a non-central lever...

    Do you get offended by the insults of children?

    I don't get offended by the innocence of children's comments, but I do get offended when a parent allows their child to be offensive and abusive to me. An example of this about 2 months or so ago I went to Woolworths and some slag allowed her child to call me a dick head for looking in his...

    Intensity vs. Sustainability

    Completely agree Fadi, it's for that reason that I started my mother and her friend on the 3 day per week beginner program. They were at the gym for months and had no progress doing body part split 5 days a week coupled with punch fit. I asked if they wanted to train at home in my gym for free...

    Correct Olympic Weight Plates for Deadlifting?

    I have Gym Direct plates, they are 1cm smaller diameter (or something close to that) than proper Olympic size 45cm plates. But it makes no difference as its not noticeable, I think Ironedge sells proper 45cm plates if you want but (I wanted them originally) postage is the killer with those...

    Delts

    Heavy barbell upright rows, take a wide grip and keep the bar close to your body. This is an exceptional compound movement when done correctly for side delts, if done wrong you will fuck your shoulders and wrists. The secret is to get your grip width right. Good luck, start a log I'm out G

    Who's having 2 meals a day?

    Exactly what I do, I hate small frequent meals. I guess it's because my family and I always associated food with a gathering of sorts. So we always had big breaky, lunch and dinner together with an assortment of different foods on the table. Now I do the same but with only breaky and dinner, so...

    The Sign of Strength?

    I think deadlift because its something that everyone emulates at least some point in there life. ie picking something up and putting it down like a box or rock or something. Where as squat, even though everyone does it, who actually puts a heavy object over their shouders and than squats up and...
