    NOOSA - Wanker capital of the World?

Then in the 90s people started going to the Sunshine Coast (100k North of Brisbane). Somewhere during the 2000s Noosa eclipsed...

    Lifting after VSG (Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy)

    Yep, lets get it out of the way first - I'm a fat bastard, I hate it, and I've been trying to change that for years with varying degrees of success, but in 18 days I'm under the knife for a VSG alongside my wife, who is having a similar procedure done the same day. Full disclosure, I'm working...

    Impotency

    So Grunta is having a few issues. Maybe it's related to his high blood pressure. Help a brother out. I'm guessing he needs to cut the booze. Better eating. Probably do a bit more training, maybe full body workouts, maybe more cardio.

    Where to lift in Sydney CBD?

    I'm in Sydney this week, staying at the Amora on Jamison Street, the gym is tiny and basically just full of treadmills. Are there any pay-as-you-go gyms within walking distance? Don't need anything fancy. Also any recommendations on where I can get some clean meals would be much appreciated. Matt
