He looks like he could be on the cover of mens health, which is fine if that is what you work out for. Pumped up chest and a big six pack. I bet his squat sucks. :D

Wrong, get the helmet that fits best as it will offer the most protection. Whether that is £30 or £500. Have a look at second hand gear on ebay, all my kit (apart from helmet and gloves) is second hand. Also remember that back protectors can kill you, motorcycle safety gear isn't an exact...

Looks ghey compared to a GP bike drifting.

I'm still not decided on Stoner. As a rookie he was very quick, but kept chucking himself at the scenery. Since he got the electronics he has kept it upright, the bike looks like it is in pain trying to keep traction! It doesn't help that he is a grumpy sod, vale is an awesome rider and has a...

Obviously a noob, a proper biker would have done a stand up wheelie between them.

That sounds like lane splitting, You'll have traffic either side of you and you're sat in the middle. The traffic will be staggered so you move left to right hitting each of the gaps. Pretty dangerous but its a very quick way of moving through flowing traffic, be warned though you have a good...

Its nearly bike season, the weather is improving and riders who have had their bikes locked up all winter are starting to go out again and get a little over excited! It will calm down soon, the ones who don't will end up eating hospital food.

Its hard to break habits that you have stuck to for a long time, but don't go for a quick fix like skipping lunch as it won't work. Have a look at what you are eating and try to improve on it, add in fruit and veg and make sure you're getting all the types of food groups. Don't get too hung up...

Do some exercise. It is not normal for a human to do no exercise. It doesn't sound like too much food is the issue. Swimming is good :)

They're ok, they work quite well for forearms though I don't use them. I thought we were discussing the EZ bar? I'm not going to comment on other exercises as we can draw no parallels that I can think of. It's not about range of motion. But yes I would choose the deadlift over all of them...

Decreases supination of the forearm due to the shape or angle of the bar, anything less than full supination is not complete bicep contraction. A straight bar gives you full supination and full bicep contraction, so why bother with a different exercise that is less effective? Waste of time in my...

Just glue it back together?

Sounds like a load of arsing about to me. Personaly I wouldn't bother with any isolation exercises and just concentrate on doing chinups with strict form, which will work your biceps as a by-product of doing more important ones. If you feel the need to do more I would just add in some...

I suffered a badly broken tibia and fibula in June last year, took me about 6 months to get to the point where I was ready to start doing weights on my legs i.e squats. When you go into hospital for check-ups the consultants don't seem to bother saying much unless you ask questions, but they...

I never really ride with my dipped beam, well until I got my Triumph where it doesn't have a switch :/ Its harder to judge the distance of a vehicle when it has its lights on. When the sun is low in the sky and behind the rider you'll dissapear in a haze of sunshine, which is most days in...

I just score the wall with a angle grinder then chisel out the waste. Dusty though :p

As soon as you straddle a bike you need to wear a helmet, so sitting on the bike and filling it up whilst holding your lid is breaking the law. Which is why I don't do it :o

Your opinion isn't based on experience of the matter in hand just like the majority of people in this thread. Of course you have the right to express it, but it carries no weight or substance :) We have another thread today where a guy has to piddle about trying to fill up a jerry can. Lets...

The armed robbery idea is rather flawed. I doubt an armed robber will fill up his bike first and I also doubt he would wait in line patiently to pay then suprise them with a sawn off! If I was going to rob a petrol station I think I would just run straight in and ignore them when they asked me...

If you want a detailed explanation on how to perform a correct squat then get a copy of 'starting strength' by Mark Ripptoe, they are so easy to do wrong. It also has all the information on the other most important barbell exercises. I think a few videos of him coaching are on youtube.
