    gynecomastia????

    I've got the problem too. I've never done AAS either. I had gyno during puberty, which never completely went away, and seems to have grown in my middle adulthood (30's). Can't stand it.

    Grip Training

    I went to a 5x a week grip workout, and have got some quick results since my first post. I can mash the #2 back and forth a few times, rubbing the knurling, but only with my right hand. I can touch with my left, but can't maintain the grip and move my hand. I have been warming up with the #1...

    Shoulder/Chest targeting

    For me, it's not the bench press movement itself, but the lift-off , that hurts my shoulders. If I have somone do a lift-off on the count of 3 I get more reps, and no shoulder pain. Also, If I arch PL style, legs wide, glutes tight, traps against the bench, I get no shoulder pain. if i flatten...

    Johnston Rep Method

    Sounds like snake oil to me. If it's worth anything the technique will leak out and eventually be free free information.

    Grip Training

    I bought some captains of crush hand grippers from ironmind.com last year at Christmas. I bought the trainer, #1, and #2. I am now able to close a #2, and just received the #3 in the mail. Is anyone on the board doing any grip training with these?

    Super Squats

    Doing 'what you can do for 10 reps' for 20 is what is recommended. I'm gonna squat till blood comes out my eyes and I foam at the mouth.

    Super Squats

    One thing that is emphasized in the book, is the importance of breathing during the squats. Taking deep breaths at the top of the move and only exhaling on the way up. There's a recommendation to even suck an extra gulp down, to the point where your lungs hurt, before you plunge. Exchale on the...

    Super Squats

    I just bought the book "Super Squats": http://www6.mailordercentral.com/ironmind/prodinfo.asp?number=1200 Anyone try out the principles in this book? It seem really over the top. The claims sounds like something out of a comic book ad next to the x-ray glasses.

    Reactions To Muscle

    This is a really interesting thread. I think about the sociological aspect of having muscles a lot. Here's why... Prior to starting to lift, I wasn't small, but I was obviously untrained, and I had a beatlesque mop top and glasses (still have the glasses), a really unthreatening look. People...

    Heroes & role models

    My uncle and my dad. My uncle played football and baseball for Yale in the late '70's. When I was really young I remember everyone talking how he could bench press over 400lbs, that was a really big deal back then. Here he is: http://yalebulldogs.collegesports.com/sports....?pic=22 My dad...

    ur best middle back exercise?

    I get a a good response from cable rows in my middle back, but my upper body is around 50 - 70 degrees, rather than 90 degrees. I squeeze the middle back and hold at the top of the move. This hits that spot right between my lower shoulder blades hard. If I do 'em with my torso at 90 degrees it...

    Critical Bench

    The site's got a real snake-oil feel, no doubt about it, but the testamonials got me interested in the bench program.  In particular the guy who went from the 400lbs club to the 500lbs club, DJ Jones, last on the 500 club page: http://www.criticalbench.com/500benchclub.htm
