Very enlightening. My gym has one of those. I've only seen a guy using it one time, and he definitely wasn't doing it like that. Later, I went over to try to figure out how it 'should' be done,...

If you believe what he says, then this is what Coleman looked like in late 1989, as a lifetime natty -- up to that point.



edit: nevermind, I don't have 50 posts, and thus can't show an image....

I totally couldn't go heavy enough on BB shrugs yesterday because my grip kept failing. I do start to use straps at a certain point when I go heavy. And when it comes to forearm exercises, I'd like...

I've found a good use for the EZ bar when working the back (rows). I was looking for a bar that actually had knurling where I wanted it... this is really the only one I could find. However I'm...

This is why they invented the EZ-curl bar, OP. There's actually quite a number of people out there that physically cannot supinate their arms enough to comfortably do straight-bar bicep curls. Some...

Go to a sports chiropractor and verify that one of your shoulders/scapula isn't in need of adjustment.

The attached pics (which I can't embed for obvious reasons) are what I'm talking about. You can barely see much of any detail in Arnold's delts, for example. I would describe his physique as, "just...

Greetings, Skip La Cour! I intend to learn as much as I can from you. I'll be starting to compete in a few months, after years of training. When it comes to contest prep, I've found what appears...

^I'll let you have your say, and others can chime in. One more thing I'll add, is that I think most BBers (especially natural, but even otherwise) look best at approx. 8 weeks out. Good definition,...

It's a stretch (no pun intended) to think maybe this kind of treatment could be an alternative method to getting in the ballpark of FST. But just imagine... at the end of a good back routine, you go...

I like to give people the benefit of the doubt. But if you want to explain to him how to do an examination and 'feel' for any potential gyno... go ahead... that's not my department.

But... not everyone can build the kind of mass I'm talking about. If I were average, I would completely agree with you. I would then have no choice but to diet down to 3.999% BF, on the verge of...

My gym has one of these things. They basically have an area for people who want to train like a barbarian (think cross-fit, but... for real men, not that stupid silly stuff that seems to be getting...

Palms up, both hands at the same time using a barbell, with wrists supported (on a bench for example).

-I advise against that combination. Too restrictive, and can lead to issues. All other...

That's because it's this area of the chest that body tends to store more fatty tissue than anywhere else on the chest. As your bodyfat levels decrease, it's these last bastions of fat storage areas,...

Headline articles on sites like Yahoo, et al. often have nutrition/diet content. Oftentimes the kind of stuff I read in there just blows my mind. And for the average person on the internet, things...

Funny. I was just about to post that (sorry, can't embed either), but you beat me to it. Earlier, I was trying to say that^ is how it should be done. I figured people would know what I meant by...

I presume you're talking about a person of your height, or shorter - yes? Because if you think it can't be done, I would like to introduce myself. A man wealth, and taste... j/k




Your key...

I appreciate your insights. Particularly regarding the (relatively) new philosophy of detail trumping overall development.
I look at bodybuilding from 2 different angles:

1) What do I want my...

Not to get into names, but if you were to get a group of several Mr. O winners, and a couple of other guys that were damn close to winning it, I know for a fact there would be some that would argue...
