    COC Gripper PR

    actually #3 has been closed by well over 100 people (that have certified) and I know of others who have done it but have not certified. Still a decent feat of strength though. Number 4 has been closed by 3 who have certified and I believe a few others who have not certified, but probably will...

    Being all natural is getting tougher and tougher.

    What is you goal? Why would you use? So you can win some local bodybuilding show? So you can stroke your ego by having bigger arms? Not worth it in my opinion, especially given that possession of most of these drugs is a serious crime assuming you are in the US. What would your wife or job...

    Question about Strongman Training

    you combine gym training with event training; ideally using the real events. It can be an expensive hobby, but there are cheap ways to acquire the implements. Also, get some grippers like the COC grippers--the importance of grip in strongman cannot be overstated. The tires are the cheapest...

    squat question

    when you squat I would stop when your form falls apart. If you want to do heavy good mornings, I would just do them as a separate exercise.

    Which one should I drop, regular squats or front squats?

    I'd say work on your form on front squats. Front squats should not tax your back as you should stay fairly erect.

    Proper deadlift pulling technique and preventing injuries

    I have to disagree with the idea that an individual's personal accomplishments are irrelevant in terms of evaluating the merit of their arguments. I agree that stats and personal accomplishments are not the only relevant factor, but they are relevant to me. If a person has bad stats because...

    Chucks vs Wrestling shoes

    That's why I actually prefer the wrestling shoes. They essentially have no sole--just a thin piece of rubber between your foot and the ground. With my arch support inserted, they have the best of both worlds in my opinion.

    Chucks vs Wrestling shoes

    It is now obvious that you don't know what you are talking about; but just to humor me, please list some of the "vast majority" of the worlds greatest squatters. How do their numbers stack up against Chuck V., Jesse Kellum, Paul Childress, Mike Miller, Brent Mikesell, Ed Coan and on and on?? I...

    Chucks vs Wrestling shoes

    CoolcojJ: You make it sound like there are many manufacturers of PL shoes. To my knowledge there are only 3--Safe, Crain and Inzer. The Safe and Crain shoes do have a slight heel. Inzer probably sells more than the other two combined. However, most big powerlifters do not use any of these...

    Chucks vs Wrestling shoes

    Anabolicmd: As a side note, I've met guys like you at many meets who have it all figured out with respect to equipment, form, whatever. One guy even told us that a Crain Genesis poly suit helped him just as much as a canvas suit, even though he had never tried a canvas. I then watch them max...

    Chucks vs Wrestling shoes

    Anabolicmd: I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you are actually trying to have a discussion with those that powerlift rather than simply try to get a rise out of us. I did not mean my statement as an insult, but rather a statement of fact--that wide stance squat is not that...

    Chucks vs Wrestling shoes

    Anabolicmd: I can tell from your posts that you do not know how to do a powerlifting style squat and that you have not tried it. It is not comparable to an OL squat. When done properly, the shins remain completely vertical in the PL squat--something that would be essentially impossible with...

    Speed Work

    the 50% number assumes you are using chains or bands. 50% is too light in my opinion if you are not using chains or bands--both on bench and squat. You want speed, but you still want it to be doing something. Speed training is not magic. I see people all of the time doing speed work with...
