    Show us your Home Gym

    This is mine but I’m not using it at the moment. Its one half open which is really nice at most times, but when the weather is hot the mozzies come and its so distracting. Also went from hating the gym to enjoying the atmosphere.

    Caffeine

    I drink about 3 litres of coke zero per day. Couple of weeks ago I tried quitting, got through 24hrs and then got some serious headaches. As soon as I had a coke zero it was like medicine and the headache went away. Next time I thought I would try panadol to get through the withdrawal period...

    A day in the life of Kai Greene

    Love this short doco. But I do have to admit I look at him differently after learning of his past. He was so different, there are even vids of him stuffing around in the gym, talking non-stop. Makes you wonder if the monk like attitude he has now is genuine or not.

    Lower Back

    Appointment for a doctor? As I said above, I'm going through the exact same thing, every detail is the same, so I'm keen to know how you go. I'm planning on seeing a doctor this week with a view to getting an MRI. But does the MRI go back to the doctor or would I then need to enlist a back...

    Lower Back

    Did the same thing a few weeks ago and it's still sore, same spot as yours. Mine was definitely dead lifting with too much weight. I actually spoke to a lady at work who used to work as an osteopath. She recommended getting a massage. Thinks I might of strained the ligaments in my back. If that...

    Balding remedies

    Completely agree. But I shaved it not long ago and it just doesn't suit me. Wish it did. I still have a decent head of hair atm so I'm just going to see how it goes.

    BB beginer program- Bench press

    Is doing both an issue though? Have been considering this myself, adding incline bench in to my workout after flat bench.

    High intensity training over str, for muscle gains.

    Thanks for your reply, much appreciated. This is in line with my current principles too, so it is reassuring.

    High intensity training over str, for muscle gains.

    I think you just answered my question in regards to myself. Stick to a compound beginner program until lifts reach an intermediate level. But say an intermediate lifter who can hit the numbers suggested by Markos, has been training at least 2 years consistently and who's primary concern is to...

    High intensity training over str, for muscle gains.

    Hey El Freako, what are your thoughts on a good BB type program? Would be interested in what a few more experienced lifters recommend for hypertrophy, powerlifters or not, right down to the exercises themselves.

    Breaking Bad

    The Wire is the best show ever created, but Breaking Bad is right up there I agree. I'm up to season 3. Totally agree about the first season being a bit slow, I know a few people that didn't stick it out past s1.

    Are squats necessary for a bodybuilding competitor?

    There isn't a lot of respect for bodybuilders and the way they train on this forum. Anytime anyone asks a genuine question about bodybuilding it gets shot down and mocked by those with a PL bias. And I'm not talking troll threads about mixing chicken and beef that probably deserve to be mocked...

    NYC bans soft drinks over 500ml

    usafoods. Believe they are based in Melbourne. There is a Dr Pepper zero version around somewhere and also a 10 calorie Dr Pepper. They only had the diet version today though.

    NYC bans soft drinks over 500ml

    Its a dangerous liquid, especially when woolies only has the full sugar versions stocked and it whispers your name as you pass.

    NYC bans soft drinks over 500ml

    I reckon God probably gulps down Dr Pepper. Pepsi max and Coke zero also amazing. Just ordered a 12 pack of diet Dr Pepper online, also gunning for a brain tumour with the amount of zero calorie drinks I consume...
