Wow, thats almost one whole 80 post page of ****.
Guys, you know the drill:
Guys, you know the drill:
I've got visions of Ben stiller in 'Dodgeball' lol
Come on icecold, put the pizza down and give us some results
what went wrong with the prep? Dont hear many people not dropping weight from it!
Ah well, wasn't meant to be 
Problem is I'm working down south from the 1st... Need to find a gym down there or this will all be pointless!
Cheers though
There are gyms in the south you know..... Where will you be working?
Also, 4lb in a week is quite some going, be careful you aren't bloating with water weight or putting too much fat on
Haha i know Morba, I'm fussy though i much prefer local/dungeon gyms than the corporate ones. Working in Eastbourne
I don't drink that much water I'll be honest, nothing out of the ordinary. Fat? Haha, my body hasn't seen a pound if fat since i was born.
I'd love to post a picture but it's embarrassing, i'll do a comparison shot in a few weeks hopefully
Youd be surprised on the fat fella, it takes rather special genetics to put on 4lb of lean mass in 2 weeks
Do you think that there are only corporate gyms down south?! How odd
Brighton Uni has some facilities in Eastbourne that look good from the website.
Gyms finally all gone now, not a single trace of gym paraphernalia in sight. The only thing down there is dust and the smell of sweat lol, I'll get some Sandee 16oz gloves and thai kick pads this week and take full advantage of all the space down there.
Just make sure you work as hard at whatever you do down there now and you'll still enjoy the space
!!! I hope you mean a big bench and a huge BBQ to cook on!
Sometimes I think PLW is very motivational, other times I think it makes me suicidal lol
They post some amazing vids, in fact everyone should have it bookmarked tbh.
I've got PLW as a friend on facebook (no idea why they have it as a person rather than a page!) and get the links each morning that they have posted up, suggest others do the same. Makes the rush hour commute almost bearable lol
I hope a lot of the spotters in those clips got smacked hard afterwards!
Ooh yeah, trap doms is great, savour it as it proves how much of your back deads work
Are you saying that you rep single arm concentration curls with 24kg DBs?
But you are against people using belts etc lol
I was speaking to this indian girl at body expo. It was strange, she was fairly small, pretty and curvy weighing in at circa 65kg and she's training for the Olympics soon. This girl was making mince of 100KG presses. I've got a video somewhere on my phone. Astounding.
She said the same thing, it's all in the technique. Met a guy who was 70KG, was showing me various techniques with cleans and presses - He could snatch 140KG. Freaks.
A lot of it comes down to technique i think. Strength obviously helps, but technique and mind to muscle control plays a huge part
they restrict progression of grip. I'd say its the same.
