I just completed my 3rd Tough Mudder and had a ball doing it and have decided (hopefully) that I can stay Tough Mudder fit majority of the time. In the past I have trained up for TM only to get back into strength training and well I struggle to get back into running and fitness again.

Is this normal? I feel it probably is, I just had good flexibility from oly lifting, but now that I just train for strength they are shit..

Hello all,
I'm looking at setting up a home gym and trying to decide what the best Power cage to get.
Really looking at it for your basics - Squats, Bench work, Chin ups. Room shouldn't be a issue as I'm looking at undercover out doors.
Trying to tossing up between the Barbarian Commercial...

The hallmark of CrossFit is its “workout of the days” or WODs. WODs are a series of exercises that are scored for time or the number of reps completed over a given interval. There are too many WODs to count, but there are some that you see and hear about over and over. If ever wondered which are...

So I got these shoes recently and thought I'd share my opinion.
Unboxing - initial thoughts were that they look tiny. Admittedly I am only a size 9US (so these are an 8UK) but they looked smaller than all my other shoes and I thought they wouldn't fit but they're spot on.

this question has long interested me given my weak legs. My thoughts have also been pricked by the recent thread concerning 'the appearance of strength'.
And don't get me wrong; I think the squat is one of the great exercises.
But from a non-lifting perspective, especially for individuals who...

A change of program is needed at this in my lifting shenanigans to freshen things up in the gym. I like the PPL program because I want to reduce volume per session but increase frequency and intensity as I embark on a lean bulk over the next few months. I have done my best to achieve a 2:1 pull...

I've been doing squats for about 6 months now. I always steered clear of them as I thought my form was all wrong, until my PT encouraged me to do them and said my form was perfect which gave me lots of encouragement to give them a go,
I started with 5kg each side plus the bar. 6 months later I...

I need some help with my deadlift. It's been stuck at the same point since the beginning of the year. Basically the same pattern is emerging month after month:
- 140kg 5.R.M
- 150kg 3.R.M
- 160kg I can get up on a good day
- 170 kg no chance. I only get the slack out of the bar FML.
