One of the challenges people face when they start training seriously is how to fit five-six training days into their already-busy weeks.
It can seem daunting to dedicate so many days to working out, and you may be left wondering how athletes and gym-enthusiasts seem to effortlessly cram in...

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...

Hi Guys,

I am following his programs now and making really good gains. My arms are now bigger than they have ever been! I am hoping that they hit 15 inches soon. I know it's not much but I always struggled with my arms.

I busted my back on my deadlift session last week, its not bad, but I wont be deadlifting for 2-3 weeks.
I won't be squatting for a week or so either.

Would be interesting to know how many of the members here actually lift weights??
By some of the responses to posts on here, it becomes apparent that some people do not have a clue about weight training.
Do they still train? Or do we have people here that just come to the forum to kill some...
