    Damaged back/ass

    Unfortunately for me i had to go and break my ass. Fortunately for me it was on the bottom of a lift shaft and not the cock. Had the accident on the 19th of Feb, basically i stepped into the open well of an elevated loading dock, a lateral beam with a 4" raised lip along it broke my fall, and...

    Private Health Insurance

    I am with BUPA active and I've been coughing up $69 a month but now they want to jack it up to $73 a month, the flipping thieves. Is health insurance really worth it? The only thing I have claimed in the past 12 months is 2 x osteopath treatments. The only concern I have is that damn age...

    Heavy loading causes cartilage breakdown

    Joint Effort Jim Stoppani, PhD. Bodybuilding is all about mass: building more muscle mass means lifting more mass in the gym. No bones about it, you must train heavy to get huge. Just take a look at the poundage hoisted by some of the sport’s biggest pros, such as Ronnie Coleman, Markus Rühl...

    Micro loading dumbells

    Hi all, I've got a standard adjustable dumbell set where the smallest increase is 2.5kg per dumbell (1.25 plate a side). What I wanted to ask is do any of you do anything to allow for smaller increases in weight such as unevenly loading the dumbell or micro loading with smaller weights? Or...

    Carb Loading

    Has anyone or does anyone carb load for whatever reasons? I've read a bit about it and it seems like it'd be good. I'd like to use it for tough mudder next month to make sure I got enough juice in the tank for the day. Is there any downfalls from it? How long before the event do I need to start...

    Carb back loading ??

    Just wondering if anyone has read about this or read the book about carb back loading? Its written by a guy called Keifer (spelling?) For people that havent read the book I guess in some ways its similar to the anabolic diet. You do a keto phase where you keep carbs under 30g, after 10days on...

    Olympic Plate Loading Pins

    This is both a question and a suggestion! I know that Markos has introduced the UDL to a lot of us. But KBs can be pretty expensive. Anyway, on YouTube I saw some people using a loading pin and a cable attachment which I thought was a pretty good idea. Which leads me to my question - Can you...

    A question on Strength: Intensity & Volume loading

    Hey. Quick question for you all. I'm sure to get some good answers from this question. I was under the impression that for a strength based cycle, both the intensity and volume would increase as the weeks progress. Let's say for 4 weeks for the sake of an example. So the volume would start at...
