First time back in years. A lot more spam than I remember, lol. I'm a mod on a different forum and it can definitely be tough to manage at times. Glad to be back here though, online forums have...
These are indeed Canadian, there is a very faint "CANADA" stamped on the face. Found a couple more pairs of these 45s and a pair of 35s. One pair of 45s is a really low quality casting, but they came...
Nothing wrong with doing curls in the power rack if you're at home. You're the only one using the equipment. If you curl in the power rack at a commercial gym, you're a douche for preventing others...
Picked up a pair of York 45s yesterday, as well as a couple of pairs of random unbranded 50s. The 45s have York stamped on them twice. I searched the York Plates Google doc and couldn't find any info...
Nothing against the assault bike, but I don't see the point in using something that makes me not want to use it. It sounds like you dread using it, so why use it when you can do something else...
If you can't find a used set, that seems like a decent price, and buying direct from the manufacturer is always a plus in my books. IMO they're worth the retail price as long as you use them.
Nah, stomach flu would be equipment you find in Walmart like Weider, Marcy, etc. Stuff that's cheap but can be adequate to use, if not easily outgrown. Cancer is cheap, half-assed (and in some cases,...
Practice good form before practicing "ass to grass". Focus on maintaining your bracing, and if you're bracing as best you can, try improving your hamstring and ankle mobility.
Between the two, I'd go for the Fitness Reality one. But if you're considering a rack like that, you might as well go for the Iron Factory rack, which is made by Northern Lights and sold through...
Not a fan of that design. The pulleys don't move as smoothly on the square tubing in my (limited) experience. Maybe it would be fine if you greased the hell out of the guideposts..
Damn man, you've got me wanting to spend money on your attachments again, lol. PM me a price shipped to 58265, if you still have a couple lying around.
The last rep looked the best. The bar is just a little too far away from your shins. I'd try to bring it 1/2 to 3/4" closer. Also, make sure the bar moves straight up and straight down. On most of...
Looking at the first video you posted, when you're at peak contraction, your elbows are flared. If I mimic a pulldown with the grip you use, I feel a stretch in my upper pecs and I feel like I'd be...
