    Gyms in prison

    I definitely don't think they should be allowed weight equipment or the time to use it. If they want to burn off steam they could be doing meaningful work helping the rest of society in some way rather than being given a chance to eat, sleep and train off my dime.

    Time to create a proper strength gym in adelaide.

    I think it sounds great. If it was near me i'd be very tempted to be a part of it. If you wouldn't feel welcome there then i'd say the gym would not be for you - everyone has different priorities about what they want from a gym I guess. In terms of deciding whether someone can join, why does it...

    My Squat form

    I use several cues when coaching the squat. In order as you approach the bar they go: "Squeeze the bar" - grip the bar tightly and pull it into your traps. "Chest up" - Pull your shoulders back and stick your chest out like superman. "Big Air" - Take a deep breath into your stomach. "Butt out /...

    The Truth About Bodybuilding Genetics

    I'm inclined to think the article was pretty even handed. Contreras went out of his way to say that genetic potential should never hold anyone back from doing or enjoying something - simply that people should be realistic and aware of the potential for completely different results when all other...

    Worlds Strongest Man in MMA

    Have you seen his fight against Brock Lesnar? Tapped out in the first minute of the first round. Soft as shit. Still, don't tell him I said that. He just didn't have the fitness or the skill to be going there yet.

    Question on gravity and muscular development

    We don't. Except we do know that muscles atrophy and pretty much refuse to grow under zero gravity. So we really don't have any choice.

    zyzz hahahahahah fuck,,

    Heaps of people haven't met ex-prime minister John Howard too, and they might call him a douchebag. We're judged by the way we carry ourselves and by the way we act when others can see and hear us.

    zyzz hahahahahah fuck,,

    Ha, what the fuck is an e-standard? Is that different to the opinions i hold in real life? Do they change when I write them down? You're defending the man as much as I don't like him, except the difference is you're keen to make it about me. You like him and his physique? Sweet. But the fact...

    so many squats?

    Hahaha, that's tight. I'm gonna use it.

    zyzz hahahahahah fuck,,

    That's like saying because i'm short and broad i'm kinda like a small Franco Columbo. Frank Zane was still enormous, and this dude is absolutely nothing special. He's got unlimited time, money, and drugs to achieve what he's done, and he's still just a pretty average muscled guy who got shredded...

    New to the country, bulking food sources needed

    Where are you from? Cheap is a relative term. Roo is cheap, high in iron, protein and low in fat. The mince is easy to cook, the steaks are a bitch. Chicken breast is about $15 a kilo, can find it cheaper in bulk or on sale. Rump steak anywhere from 12 - $20 a kilo. (a kilo is 2.2pounds) Beef...

    Deadlift - leg day or back day?

    I do them seperate but there's a whole other camp that put them together. Depends how much workload on a given day you can handle.

    Over training/Under training

    People who still argue that BB splits don't work are floggin a dead horse. They work. If you aren't a fan - don't do it. But you're in a BB forum (populated mostly by people who are more interested in powerlifting and strength) trying to sell strength routines to people who want hypertrophy...

    Over training/Under training

    Don't stop increasing the weights. Don't stop increasing your food intake to match the extra work and weight you want to hold. Lots of people do drop sets but they're more a sometimes kind of thing than an every set kind of thing. You're nowhere near your potential - stick with the basics...

    Over training/Under training

    Looks like you're doing fine mate. You don't always have to be ruined after every session. In fact it's better if you're not. If you're happy with the gains you're making then keep doing what you're doing.
