Wow well done mate, big strength increases

You guys will probably say no to this haha, but I was thinking of just ramming as many of the exercises i can do with the limited equipment I have into one day?

I was going to do curls, abs,...

Haha is anyone genetically designed to have a stronger upper body? Humans are reliant on their legs for locomotion, it's normal to have a stronger lower body.

Tried the basic apartment gym, damn...

Yeah it's a gym in the apartment lol. I reckon I could get a squat rack but not right now. What do you reckon?

Man I'm in a very limited gym, there's basically a bench and Dumbbells. What do you guys recommend?

I can do deadlifts with the bench bar but no squats and tons of other stuff. What do you guys...

Cheers lads and yeah I reckon there'll be 1.25kg plates in there

Also so reverse flies should be done standing then? Didn't know that, most videos use an incline bench. No problem though, the more...

Also quick question regarding weight, I'm adding 10-15% of my 50% weight capability each week right? and not between workouts/days in one week?

Dumb question but how are you guys adding 5pounds (2.5kg) to upper body exercises like the bench press?

There are 2.5kg plates in the gym but adding one to one side would unbalance the bar...

Hmm, must be a form issue I've got then, was my first time doing them

Is it normal to feel it in the wrists when doing front squats? Or am I not lifting my arms and chest up enough?

Haha, I avoid any attention being on me when I'm in the gym, hate getting looked at or anything to be honest

Oh wow haha, so I wasn't doing something idiotic. I must admit though my back doesn't seem to be able to lie flat on the hack squat machine, whilst doing calf raises. Am I doing something wrong?
...

Ok so was back in the gym, squats were tiring me out but completed the sets fine in the end. Then did a 50kg set just to see how strong I would be with a higher weight and did it fine. I know that's...

That's genuinely good to hear.

Yeah Squid that makes sense also, seems like a common sense move.

Guys, I've slacked hard from gym due to other commitments. Quick question though, when I go back should i start again from where I was? I was lifting pretty light and for some exercises (Squat) I...

Haha the thing is I've never had it, it's a relatives so sadly I don't know what it's meant to smell like normally.

I mean it's doesn't smell great lol but I don't know if that's just how it...

My whey protein is finished but there's a tub half full of mass gainer. It's expiring/best belts date is for this month (Aug 2015).

Is it worth having?

Thanks very much mate, I get you.

Regarding calf raises, are calf presses an ok substitute?

Also only now finding out what butt winking (funny name haha) is when squating, had never heard of it...

Guys a couple silly questions. Are calf presses an ok sub for calf raises?

Also, regarding this sentence in the FAQ 'On every workout increase the weight by 10-15% instead of the 5-10lbs listed in...

Cheers for the response, and yep I also increased my weights during warm ups, went from the bar upwards and will next time start higher.
