Frantz has a catalog with prices. to request one call 1-800-537-5532. i don't have one of his but i've been told his briefs are almost as good as some of the others squat suits.

does the bar have heavy knurling? or is it worn and fairly smooth? I'd say try the duct tape on squat day. But if there's not an open wound, it's probably a pressure bruise. So much pressure that it actually pushes the blood thru the pores next to the top layer of your skin. But i agree with...

Hey Jay, Goggins did'nt lift. He was coaching another lifter. But would have loved to have seen him squat. I got to see Brent Mikesell squat 1046 at the Arnold back in Feb. He's another awesome squatter.Met and talked to Ed Coan, This guy is super nice. Got my picture made with him. Also saw...

I'll try to send you a pic. by lunch wed. just let me know what you think.

Jay, i really have'nt been doing anything extra for deads.I really was trying to get back in shape. I pulled 675 in march of 2000 at an AAPF meet. So i had been close to that kind of weight before. But when i'm pushing my deadlift i do a lot of heavy shrugs, and lockouts. I alternate shrugs one...

Exactly! The tighter the wrap the more spring out of the hole.You get a better understanding by trying this little experiment. Wrap one leg like you normally would. Then wrap the other as tight as you can stand it. Try to bend the first leg wrapped normally then the other that is wrapped very...

As far as squatting and deadlifting on the same day. I like to do that 10weeks before a meet. it really pays off at a meet with that kind of conditioning. The first four weeks are brutal but you adapt and for me it pays off the day of the meet. I don't do it for more than 10 weeks because i tend...

I started like everybody else with one set of knee wraps and rolling them between sets or attempts at meets. It became tiring and distracting. I bought 4 sets when I could afford it and then i saw a knee wrap roller in Powerlifting USA. I thoughtI can build one of those. so after a couple of...

the march issue is supposed to be in the mail, just real, real late. May is the first issue of monster muscle mag. the new name. I've called and they won't answer the phone at monster muscle mag till the17th which is wed. The may issue is supposed to be twice as big page wise as the powermag's...

anyone going to the apf state meet in GA. this sat.

Being my first cycle,does it matter what length cycle i do? 8,10 or 12 weeks. I've read 10 to 12 weeks is better for your first cycle.does cycle length have anything to do with how much strength you retain?

priest Apparently this was something from marketing by muscle tech. I was at the arnold classic in feb. and he looked freakin awesome. he was at the muscle tech booth, got my pic with him. his wife kathy is also awesome. both were really friendly gave autographs and took pics. some of these ads...
