When I was younger and involved in Olympic weightlifting, I had the coaches do all the thinking for me..., I just lifted what I was asked to lift. Coming to bodybuilding, I followed the same method, a method where you don't lift balls to the wall just because you feel like it or because you can...

It’s a lot of freaking weight. The stress test on this cheap Olympic bar reveals that the straight metal bar can lift an immeasurable amount of weight before it buckles and permanently bends itself out of shape. When it’s just lifting normal plates and the like, Beyond the Press counted nearly...

New research is challenging traditional workout wisdom, suggesting that lifting lighter weights many times is as efficient as lifting heavy weights for fewer repetitions. It is the latest in a series of studies that started in 2010, contradicting the decades-old message that the best way to...

By the time I get to my second lot of a deadlifts for the weak the pain is gone, usually lasts 3-4 days...

Hello,
I been seeing all the different kinds of lifting one can do.

I see people around over the years saying that you have to get sore to get bigger. Which I somewhat dis-agree with as I've gain a fair amount of muscle with rarely getting sore.
I've been lifting for quite a few years now progressively adding more and more volume (and weight when appropriate)...

I posted this here because I didn't know where to, so many sub forums.
back in the day at around the mid nineties there were a couple of forums specifically about lifting weights, with maybe three sub forums.

I seriously intend to be doing this as long as I'm alive. To me, lifting is a part of Healthy lifestyle, both physically and psychologically. Unless my joints give out I'll be Squatting, Deadlifting, Pressing, Chinning and Dipping. I may not do things like Barbell Rows as I feel they irritate...

Hey all,
Something I've never really used before are lifting straps or wrist supports. Is there a combination of both?
I've seen Jay Cutler using them on his snapchat, and they seem pretty decent.
More the point practical when it comes to safe guarding my wrists and dainty white palms.
