World's Gym behind Western Sydney's Club Marconi and the after-work rush is building to a crescendo of whirring machines: leg extensions, lat pull downs, calves, abdominals, biceps.
Opposite the long mirror, giant murals of the gym-gods look down: Arnold Schwarzenegger, Mohammed Ali and ...

hi everyone,
I recently was lucky enough to be able to get a DEXA scan and am involved in a body re-composition competition, that goes for 3 months starting end of August.
I have some goals in my head about what I would like to achieve. I was hoping I could get some advice from the forum...

The RDA for protein intake is 0.8 grams per kilo of lean body mass. Sellers of protein powder seem to promote to double that intake with little to no real evidence to support this number.
I really don't believe any gym goer, really needs to greatly exceed 0.8 grams of protein.
The RDA would...

There's a lot of maths — and a bit of astronomy — behind the sideways swing of a ponytail.
If you go for a run, your head bobs up and down a little bit as you move forward. But if you've got a ponytail, something weird happens. As you run forward, and your head bobs up and down, the ponytail...

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...

It all begins before you approach your training session, and it begins in your brain. Will you be seeking pain, or will you stop your set at the first sign of discomfort?
Your brain tolerance for pain is going to be the deciding factor governing whether you push on or stop. Most of us believe...

The sport of bodybuilding has definitely changed, for the worse. It's no longer the sport that I joined back in 1984. If the immature behaviour displayed by well known bodybuilders, was to take place amongst some professional footballers, the whole organisation would go into a disciplinary mode...

I say frequency would win all the time over density. But first let me explain what I mean by frequency and how is it different from density.
Frequency is the number of times you train a particular muscle or muscle group in a week. Density is the amount of work, or volume of work you can squeeze...

A full deck of cards would be ideal. Since the whole workout lasts until every single card has been flipped, you can go with fewer cards to shorten the workout, or use two decks for a crazy challenge. There are three steps you’ll need to repeat throughout the workout:
