    Cheers, I will give it a shot, I've noticed that my upper chest is lacking compared to my lower chest. I'm starting to develop a bit of moobs...

    Bench pressing

    For the people who do incline (I'm thinking about adding them as well), how many degrees do you set the bench to?

    Diet / Training Dilema

    The question is how long do you have to digest after eating? If it's 2 hours or around that, there shouldn't be any issues. Other option is to get up early and lift in the morning.

    Power Cleans

    Oni, that's true, but that's a small part of the movement, since in power clean you only need to do something like a quarter squat for the weight to land on your shoulders. that part of movement is a lot more important when doing full on clean. I would say where most people go wrong is actually...

    Power Cleans

    It works all muscles in the body, but it's not shoulder workout. Unless you don't do any of the "Power" part where the bar flyes up and it's racked on the shoulders. It's as much of a shoulder workout as hang/high pulls are... or even power shrug. If you actually using shoulder to lift the...

    Power Cleans

    I'm not sure why people do this for shoulders. It doesn't use shoulders at all, if you do use your shoulders, you are not doing it right. Correctly done it hits traps really hard and lats too.

    Tennis Elbow

    That's an excellent video, now all I've to do is apply it to my broken and torn wrists and elbows.

    You have to move from this country. Which country do you move to?

    Ok, Okinawa is a bunch of islands south of Japan, east of Taiwan. The cheapest way might be to actually get there from hk/taiwan/shanghai. I flew to Okinawa from Osaka and it took around 1 hour. I went with Skymark airline, it was the cheapest. Think of it as Jetstar of ANA. SKYMARK One good...

    You have to move from this country. Which country do you move to?

    It's hard to answer, I've never been to Bali, one of those days I will. One thing for sure, Bali is a lot cheaper and easier to get to from Australia.

    string teenyboppers less likely to die..

    Just like you, I would say suicide rates are directly related to self esteem etc... and stronger teens would have a lot more of it.

    You have to move from this country. Which country do you move to?

    I've just been there few months ago, my jaw dropped and that's after living in QLD for 10 years. It's one of the best kept secrets by americans... From Inviting clear blue waters of tropical Japan | Flickr - Photo Sharing!

    You have to move from this country. Which country do you move to?

    Japan easily as well, it's got everything. Best snow in the world and I love snowboarding. Season is 6 month long and it's dirt cheap too. Not to mention the food is fantastic, already got my trip booked and I'm ready to go. Best transport in the world. From work to snow in 2-4 hours. Love...

    How much sleep?

    If I sleep less than 6 hours my brain shuts down and I can't think properly (my job is all about thinking). For me every hour of extra sleep makes a huge difference, especially after heavy day of lifting. I can just get by on 6, but at minimum I aim for minimum of 7 hours. I'm lucky to get 8...

    Israeli\Palestine Conflict

    There are actually black jews, and it's a bit of an issue in israel, since they are not recognised. I'm sure you can get a lot more info with google search

    How much sleep?

    Different people need different amounts of sleep. Some need more and others need less. I need 9 hours everyday. If I don't have enough, the next day or on weekends I will need to sleep a whole lot more. I can barely survive on 9 hours. My gf who's a nurse and often works night shifts or...

    Sydney MEAT LOVERS!!!

    I'm on a similar mission, but my priority is getting rid off as much BPA as possible. I've finally found some canned tomatoes which don't contain BPA lining and I'm a big user of them. I like the grass fed beef they have, I'm a big consumer of gravy beef for curries/stews/stroganoff/etc... at...

    Peak UV times

    The best thing for hot weather and sun is linen. Pity there's so little of it available in oz. I always buy online or when I'm overseas, long sleeves and pants feel cooler than being in T and shorts... I still try to get enough exposure through out the day to get a bit of Vit D. But 10-15min is...

    the photography thread

    It's the shape of the aperture. You have 6 blades and it show's in this photo. The process it came up is the same as you would normally get lens flare. Bad lens coatings, reflections, damaged lens element, dust. In this case it was water on the front element.

    ski goggles with HUD

    I don't know, I love snowboarding and go overseas every year for the past 4 years. I already have a holiday booked for January (booked it back in May). I used to own a video cam too, I've sold it. It just takes out a lot of the fun from boarding. It's me, my mates, snow and whoever isn't there...
