    Trump - Republican Nominee (President)

    Comey was sacked for being too tall. Trump is a big guy - he towers over Obama, who is pretty tall by any normal standards. Trump can't have anyone who towers over him around.

    Politiical Correctness

    Funny thing is, that in the last few years (10 or 15), I've noticed that (some) women have been using the word.

    Damaged back/ass

    I reckon you should probably have a bit more healing time before you hit the weights - but if you have to, maybe just stick with bench presses, where you're lying down, and not putting any stress on anything below your chest.

    Trump - Republican Nominee (President)

    Just in case anyone wonders what a thread on Trump is doing on a body-building forum, here's the connection: Arnie on Trump (after he'd said that he wanted to smash his face) ... "I think I have to be above all that," Schwarzenegger said. "Don't get into a stinking contest with a skunk."...

    Wanker's Hand

    A Happy Ending Well, I can close this case. My physio seconded my self-diagnosis of Dupuytren's, but my GP thought it was a "ganglion" (those mysterious lumps [usually on the wrist] that you're supposed to get rid of by thumping them with a heavy Bible). I was sent for an ultrasound. Turns...

    Older guy starting home gym, advice wanted

    Hi Pappy-O, & welcome! I've had heaps of fun accumulating my weight collection, from Gumtree and other second-hand places. This is a good time of year for hunting, as there are all those un-wanted Christmas presents, and New Years resolutions growing spider-webs in the shed. I have to...

    Depression linked to inflammation

    I was interested too when I first saw the article, and then I realised that it was (effectively, anyway) an advertisement for a new book. There are so many books on health or psychology (or both, as in this case), advocating all sorts of whacko things, that I tend to be automatically sceptical...

    A horrible ripping sound

    Yes, I thought it would be something like this. I figured that if it was muscle, then there would have been blood (a big bruise). How long should it need to heal up? I don't want to fuck it by testing it too soon, but - as the pain has pretty much gone - there doesn't seem to be a way of...

    A horrible ripping sound

    The day before yesterday, I went to do some pull-ups - the kind where you grab the bar from behind, palms facing you - and as I started, there was this horrible ripping noise* from inside of the elbow of my right arm. It definitely sounded (and felt - although the pain wasn't much) as though...

    Getting a sore lower back post leg day

    It might be worth thinking about what you are doing AFTER you have done your deadlifts. A couple of years ago, I gave myself a pretty bad lower back for a few weeks, like this: I did my deadlifts in the morning, and then immediately drove the car for five hours straight (funny thing - I was...
