    Mine are saline over. The doc did them this way so they would square when I flexed on stage. I can train very heavy with them and have rippling issues at all (overfilled implants help). If you plan...

    Just remember to take it easy on that hand and stay within your therapist/docs guidelines. Do you have access to your rugby trainers and strength and conditioning staff? If so ask them...

    If you read OP's post again you'll see it was 225, not 135. Most women don't want to deadlift 225 cold just so that they can use the bar. Next time just grab the person closest when they're in...

    Like others said above, it sounds like your forearms do need to catch up. In the meantime try using a neutral grip with the dumbbells and doing hammer curls instead. Changing your hand position takes...

    Try doing some dynamic stretching before you lift and then static stretching after. While it is common for hamstrings to tighten up a little as they get firmer, you shouldn't have to sacrifice...

    Which ligament? Is it a minor tear (i.e. sprain)? Have you had a doctor do a range of motion test? Is your knee unstable at all?

    It is likely that your anaerobic threshold is pretty low from training to compete in explosive power sports. You can train to up that threshold, but doing so may effect your ability to remain...

    I like big guys (225+), but have never dated a bodybuilder. Pro athletes, powerlifters and strongmen, yes. Bodybuilders? No. I don't want to be with a guy who looks in the mirror more than me. :)

    That makes more sense... they are stiff legged single leg (well, with the exception with the supported leg one on the stairs). If you're going to try that last one I'd suggest you use very, very...
