Ive been wanting to make a training log for a while now, think its a great way to keep track on how im doing aswell as getting feedback from you lot!
Im not really a powerlifter or anything but i do...

Yeah, leg press was another option, but at my gym the weight on it goes up to only 150kg which i can rep 25+, so its not much use to me. Thank you for the input though.

I have been trying to find a replacement for back squats because for some reason they kill my knees, which in the long run im guessing isnt good for me. So yesterday for the first time i tried front...

I think you can grow on a powerlifting just as much as on a bodybuilding one, just as long as your eating enough, thats what matters the most in terms of getting bigger.

I was wondering if anyone has tried this routine, is it good? Even if you have not does it look like a good routine to gain on the bench? Also where would i include speed work if any? Thanks for any...

They can be fiiled with various things, mine has sand and that does a good job of being firm but easy on the hands because it has a little give. You can also get them filled with water, never tried...

Up until now i have done both rows and pullups on the same days. However I was thinking of moving rows to lower body days, but i am not sure if this will lead to overtraining or not. The reason i...

I do an upper/lower split which you may like, its also a four day split:

Monday:Lower
Squats
SLDL
Leg Press
Standing Calf Raises

Tuesday:
Bench Press

My question is if i do stiff leg deadlfts is it also necessary to do regular deadlifts. Other than the quads (which i have covered when doing squats) what other muscle groups does regular deadlift...

I think your right i read somwhere that in long distance running the hamstrings and glutes are used more because of the more 'leaned back' stance you maintain whilst running but when sprinting you...

Are 20rep squats a good strength gainer. I have heard they are great for leg mass but not much about strength.
