•Australian researchers reported in the Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research that when weight-trained subjects performed incline bench presses, the muscle activity of their upper pecs was only about 5% more than the muscle activity of their upper pecs during the flat bench press.
•Canadian scientists found that when trained lifters did the reverse-grip bench press, the muscle activity of their upper pecs was 30% greater than when they did the bench press with a standard overhand grip.

intredasting..never knew there was such a thing as reverse grip bench press..gonna try it out on my next chest day

looks stress to the wrist..not gonna know till i try..but i have a feeling its better to use that as a tricep rather than chest workout
i usually carb load before working out..

but heavy b4 and heavy after should be the way to go..look at how darklight eats after his workout..lol

Lol, fun.Pleasant. Why?

eh crap. the shoulder comment was for thecrab, lol. YOUR shoulders however, are fine.

edit:   

Those are some heavy-ass curls you're doing. 

I should really try to bring up my squat poundages, but I'm more of a front squat, Hack squat guy. I admire guys like you and dark that can squat that much.

get dark to take a look at your form if u train with him, otherwise, stick with hack squat. elevate your lower back and middle back, put a pad between your back and the back rest. Try and tell me how it feels

no such thing as sissy squat man. don't let that get to you. rmb that side/lateral raise video mate

I meant, a squat is a squat. Don't let "sissy" deter u

I still don't get it. How does wearing a belt takes anything away? Your core muscles will come into play with or without the belt. Having the belt, helps keep the core muscles during the movement when one is trying to concentrate on everything else. It should be natural to have your core tight( imagine sucking your belly button in) whenever you are to perform a compound movement. I'm not sure how you guys train but I suck in deep and keep it tight before I put that belt on. And it's only on when I go for my last set / really fatigued. Otherwise, without the belt, my core will still be tight

"4 me its worth all the risk/stupidity/craziness if I can get a few ppl 2 liv hlthier. Sometimes it takes somethin crzy like this"

Hats off to this guy. Fantastic attitude.

do not have enough time >.>

Putting on weights!!! busy with work though =X

suddenly getting back the motivation! i went gym this afternoon, going to hit Terry's gym again with my friend now!

what is this obsession with this belt?

btw, anyone knows where to get greek yogurt and cottage cheese? lifesavers for when having cravings

HUH. I occasionally get the itch to do them but I can't do them , then I console myself by saying I want to look like I can pull the world up, not really needing to be able to do so and go do my lat exercises. I suppose I'd attempt that at a lighter weight
