    2 year gym hiatus any tips?

    Baring in mind hes trained for years previous, training for physique its good to train arms, shoulders directly as well. I didn't train biceps or at least have a arm day at all until Christmas when i started hitting them twice a week on top of my usual workouts and put on half an inch from...

    Similar to you i looked down at my knees / lower whilst doing squats and got lower back pain. To the point where my SLDL's afterwards were painful, so i didn't do them. Which i kind of 'solved' by wearing a belt, but not really. Looking straight forward has helped me massively recently as...

    Opening up my own Gym

    pretty much all my friends lift :). I think it depends on your social group and job.don't think its that rare still! seems to be quite common, noticing a lot of 'shredded' guys too, more so than a few years back i think (no homo involved!) just in walks of life, so i think it is in fashion for...

    *** The 2013 Gym Rats Thread ***

    probably worth ringing them up, they usually let you have a free session to look around and get a feel of it. I've been to one of them a couple of times and it was quite good. different LA fitness gyms (so i presume other chains might be similar) have completely different equipment from what...

    The Unspeakable Crime: Rape

    its a recent change, having to pay your own legal fees (IF YOU WIN THE CASE), in the last 12 months. I completely disagree with it, if you want to compare it to NHS treatment then go ahead. Just put yourself in the innocent persons shoes, doing everything he can to clear his name, he clears it...

    The Unspeakable Crime: Rape

    are you really comparing domestic abuse to rape in terms of seriousness? Murder you need a darn sight more evidence and thats the only one in my opinion that has comparisions to it in what it would do to someone wrongly convicted. all crimes should pay you legal fees back. if the CPS...

    The Unspeakable Crime: Rape

    If you pay out of your pocket for a lawyer in these cases, and you win the case. You don't get any legal fees reinbursed. You can't defend yourself in court for it. Is this fair at all? There's no other crime where you can be convicted on a witness statement alone. No other evidence is...
