Stargardt's Disease is taking my eye-site. Things haven't been going so well in my life, but I guess that's the case for most of us, isn't it? To stave off depression an suicidal thoughts, I've...
If you are obese and look at yourself in the mirror with depression each morning, this is for you. Make the effort each day to do what you can. Time will pass the same whether you do it or not. Do...
Fascinating! I never knew such a thing existed. So if I got a set of PlateMate magnets, I could mix and miatch two sets of plates (2.5 with 10, 5 with 10, 10 with 10, etc.)? Since they are magnets,...
I need your help. I love doing the Svend press (clamping two OLY cast iron plates between hands against chest and pushing out whilst keeping pressure and holding plates together). Its...
Holy smokes, dude! Your bench press is out of this world! Inspirational indeed! Do you have any tips on the pause at the chest? I bench touch-and-go but I want to get the pause down like you do so...
I like it! Do you do front squats for assistance work or do you do OLy lifts? I'm going to attempt OLY lifts next year in my training and am curious to know others' experience with it.
Just got NSCA-CPT certified! I love to do bodybuilding, powerlifting and am now dabbling in OLY lifts. Pinching my pennies to get some bumper plates and a proper OLy bar. Used to be an obese 350+ lb...
Hey everyone. I've ordered the NSCA's Essentials of Personal Training text book and have read it cover to cover. I'm currently going over every chapter's questions at the end. I'm scheduled to take...
That is a good question. It definitely won't have the same negative effects of overusing knee wraps, but I'm sure it will be a slight crutch. I always train in them and have for over a year now. I...
From here I'm going to keep modifying the undulating periodization after each cycle. My goal for next year is 275 lbs at 10% BMI, 515 lb bench, 705 lb deadlift, 605 squat ATG, and 425 front-squat...
I'm not sure yet. I'm more of a powerlifter at heart. That's how I got myself to 350+ lbs in the first place, haha. In the SHW division, after 308 lbs the sky is the limit. I stopped at 12% for now...
Went from 350+ lbs to 247 lbs in six months, then the latter four months I hammered my body with an undulating powerlifting / bodybuilding periodization program, training six days a week--exluding...
SBD sleeves are great. In this video you can see me comfortably squatting 525 ATG / front squatting 385 ATG with these bad boys. Though I've lost over 100 lbs from the time I first ordered and wore...
