Too bad if they are pulling out of weightlifting. Romaleos 2 are the best weightlifting shoes out there, in my opinion...

Yes, but I never train bench with enough intensity or volume to cause significant tightness in my chest/shoulders. That will ruin your next snatch workout.

Usually just 5x5 with an easy/moderate...

Wow, he's going to the extreme lengths of trolling. Even posted MRI pictures on ********.

If he's trolling,...

I hear he's retiring already due to significant knee damage?

Really sad news, I always thought he seemed like a great guy. How old is he, like 20?

And wasn't he one of poster boys for daily...

Actually it's not silly. You get them used to training with a loaded bar. Psychologically, they are not challenged by seeing a bar full of plates. Then as they get older and stronger, you simply...

Just call Mr. Charniga at Dynamic Fitness, I'm sure he can tell you about what the shipping costs will be.

I also find the Soviet Era quite interesting. I've read Roman and Medvedyev's stuff....

I have seen some Crossfit/Paleo people who take like 10-15 capsules per day.

I don't know of any evidence to support that; seems crazy to me. Not to mention expensive. Most of the literature...

I agree with this, but it starts to become a bit more challenging when you're in your 30s.

Sometimes that capsule of Celebrex starts to look like a huge crack-rock to a junkie.

I've never heard of anyone being overly thrilled with any Troy/VTX products.

They are cheap Chinese junk, no?

Nope, I only started when I was 31. I did powerlifting before that, and so my flexibility was somewhat horrible.

... wish I had started at 21.

Hahaha, welcome to OL. I felt exactly the same. You're only 21, you will adapt soon.

ZKC is Zhang Kong, right?

I have also heard they are good, but about impossible to get. I think you have to import them yourself.

If you're trying to save money, Pendlay bearing bar or DHS.

If money is no concern, just get the Eleiko competition bar.

Has anyone been using this program? How did you do?

I gave it a shot. Honestly didn't care much for the 10RM weeks. I was quite sore, and lost strength. I also didn't care for doing a 5RM on the...

I think that program is fine, I'm sure your coach knows what they are doing.

The only thing "strange" about it is you never really do any heavy singles in snatch or clean & jerk. But maybe they...

The only thing he's putting up in the 200s these days is his LDL!

Boo-ya!
