For those of you who are subject historians... What is this? Thought old York, but can't see any markings. Felt closer to 28 than 29, certainly nowhere near 30+ mm.
Selling my Buddy Capps Texas Squat bar, been injured for the last 6 months with a lower back issue and am thinking that squatting heavy is probably not gonna happen for a long time so no use for it anymore.

Got the GPC newsletter. First few lines read:
So, from that, I get that Andy Hargreaves is, "subsequent to that", either a druggy, an anti druggy, a government employee covering his butt, a NSW source, an anti drug abuse and distribution advocate or non of the above.

Hi guys,
I'm looking to build a basic home gym, and was wondering if anyone knows where I can get a power rack (preferably with a pull up bar) that is about 1.8m-1.9m.
My garage ceiling has a height restriction of about 2m
Thanks.

No one here is saying don't think, but there's a time for thinking and a time for lifting. Before you approach the bar, go ahead and think all you like (if that makes you feel better), however once your hands make a connection with that bar, it's business time.
In fact, if you really want to...

We've all seen some crazy weights been lifted by some very strong Olympic weightlifters; I'm referring to squatting here.
You see a middleweight (75kg) weightlifter back squatting something like 290kg the way he just squatted 150 or 200kg.
Great so where is this post heading?

Since 2009, I’ve written many words on this forum;however one aspect of training I’ve always emphasised was and still is the psychology of training. I believe not enough thought is given to this essential element of our training, the thought of how we ought to approach our training.

Hi All,
Just switched from seated overhead press (slight incline), to standing again.
I realised my grip was way too wide (on the gnurling), and have bought my grip into should width as per the various form guidelines on "proper form". Generally I feel stronger like this too with less shoulder...

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...

Looking for wisdom from the usual suspects on ancillary exercises. I'm running 5/3/1 triumvarate, with quite a few ancillary exercises to choose from. What I'd like to hear is which exercises would complement, or work opposite each major lift muscle group.
