ONS 100% WHEY protein 10 lbs can get at egonutritions for rm388, for me thats as much quality protein you can buy around that range. others over priced, egonutritions will be opening another branch at the curve soon so you're in luck

My previous gym had a smitch machine, no squat rack and i had to deal with that for 6 years. and get this i stagnated for 6 years... the smith machine doesnt help your squat, if anything its a waste of time in my opinion, the bar is only 5 kg if im not mistaken and the movement is unnatural, when you squat the bar it doesnt necessarily move in a linear movement 'cause you move your glutes first then the quads.. in those 6 years i was stuck at a 100kg squat and my quads get cram easily....now my current gym has a squat rack my squat went up to 160kg, big diference

The fitness first at the curve got squat rack what... its opposite the smith machine tongue.gif

It's definitely not for support --- you're already lie down on a bench, what else support do you need.
Pizzaboy ajar the powerlifter's nifty trick.

Lie on the bench, put your feet on the ground. Then pull your legs as far back towards your head as possible (only the toes are still in contact with the ground at this point) and arch your body. You should form a rainbow between your shoulders and your butt.

Now start doing the bench press. When you press the weights up, flex your thighs or try to dig your toes/feet into the ground. Scream if you want (this will probably flex the abs for more nervous response X^D). You'll notice you could push more weights.

Not as easy to describe it in words. Sometimes I forget about the digging toes into ground thing... but this trick allowed me to force the last few reps and complete the whole set.

Another thing u can try is gripping the bar harder, as if you're tearing it apart and try flexing ur lats, it helped me a bit though i wont encourage these methods if you're looking to pack on muscle, its this part of PL that ppl mean when they say "its not necessarily getting stronger"
