Just to give the other side, there are good uses for the "female" or 15kg (33lb) bars. In Olympic weightlifting, all females in competition use the 15kg bars, not because they're lighter, but...

1750 sounds solid, thanks. I know carbs = energy = good workouts, but it was recommended to me by a couple super-strong lifters at my gym, so I figured I'd give it a shot (especially because...

After basically a 2.5 year unplanned perma-bulk, I've recently decided to start cutting weight. I started keto (I know it's not popular here but bear with me) a week ago. Starting stats are...

Well, thank ya very much--I made them myself!



Much appreciated. Priority-wise I think keeping a lid on body fat was somewhere after academics, strength gains, and the part-time jobs balanced...

Welp, looks like I've got my work cut out for me. Thanks all!



Gracias. Not gonna lie, I wouldn't mind a bit more of an hourglass shape, but that's what lats and glutes are for, right? :D

I was hoping I could get a bodyfat estimate from some of the ladies who know what they're doing in that area. I've put on quite a bit of weight in the past year, mostly due to stress eating.

My...

Thanks! Good to hear that a couple ladies have gotten there. I know knee wraps will come eventually--I'm just about the only person at my gym that doesn't use them. I'm guessing I'll be all about...

It was A2G, or as close as I can get. High bar/belted, if it matters. I started with an Oly coach in January, though, so he gets credit (he works me pretty hard).

Good to know. I'll aim for...

Squats, that is.

I recently hit 200, which I am still fuh-reaking out about. I didn't hit a 1-plate squat til January, so I'm hoping I still have some sort of gains left in me.

I know it's a...

The Binturong, or "bear cat", produces a smell indistinguishable from the scent of buttered popcorn. And the smell of their urine is reminiscent of the scent of Marijuana.

They're cute little...

Thank you :) Hoping to get a couple strung together now...I've got my work cut out for me!



I worked on them for around a year while making very little progress (I was also putting on weight at...

Nice job, props! It comes with quite a high :)

Thanks all! I started out with very little upper body strength, so I'm pleased with my progress :)

Strict, from dead hang. Regular grip. First pull up ever. YEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH.

Sorry, I'm ridiculously excited, just thought I'd share. I've been working on them for a while now, completely...

First post, haven't read the full thread(s) so apologies for any redundancies.

Is anyone in SFM (Sprouts)?

IPOd two months ago, I've been watching it for the past month. It was bouncing around...

Everyone in my hall was getting sick so I decided to take a zinc before heading to class this morning (no breakfast), and halfway through I knew something was wrong. Had a feeling it might be the...

If you're really interested, try visiting a Church/Synagogue/Mosque in your area. People are usually very friendly, even if you aren't already converted. Books and Google are also your friend, as...

Do BCAAs make enough of a difference to warrant purchasing?
