I can see it Now LACTIC ACID...1 Gal. US..............189.98 + 75 dollars shipping and thats just for the run of the mill Acid produced from the Glands of Southern Californian Mexican Immigrant Laborers. There will soon be an entirely new brand of lactic acid, produced by some of Americas most...

You and I traded comments over your back problems before. I can advise you that many exercises that you do seated will be better for your back if you do them standing. It has worked very well for me with similar injuries. I encourage you to lift lift and lift. Its really the only thing that helps

I was just kidding around about "having your problem" I have an an acquaintance who is very very underweight. I don't think he has an unhealthy view of himself, but I know he would love some extra pounds. He was just diagnosed with Diabetes and i think its because of being underweight.

COP25...Great advice. I am not much of a water drinker either. I am going to re-motivate myself to drink water. What you say has the chime of truth to it

I am the same way...I bench just North of 300 raw, But with my block and tackle I can hit 2450lbs for reps

I have 3 Herniated Discs in the "L" area. and Degenerative joint Disease throughout. The only thing that has made me strong whole and not disabled are squats and diet. I squat an honest 500lbs. It takes away all discomfort. I tweaked myself dead lifting on Friday. I am the poster child of bad...

I was going to say that about Push ups Chins and DIPS...they have a quality of exercise that is different then Bench Press, Lat pull downs and decline press. The seem to me at least, to not be body building movements....Just thinking out loud

I am not to sure that 5% is all that healthy. Being underweight has its own set of problems, although there are few 200 lb 70 year olds and there are NO 200lb 80 year olds. Something to think about Don't stop Cardio, just don't do tons of it. Always work your most important muscle, your...

I disagree with that supposition. ( I HAVE NO EXPIERENCE). If your max UN shirted is 300, and your max shirted is 400...then its still a max...the same muscles are maxed, just at a higher level of poundage. I am assuming that shirted or un shirted the same muscles are used so it stands to reason...

I hate to always keep coming back to wrestlers, but the same could be said of all pugilists. The size of the muscle is deceptive. My son is a High School wrestler, He is a nationally ranked Greco Roman wrestler, and his musculature is typical of his peers. Compact , tight and always seemingly...

Yeah, I can see where it would really help support the shoulder joints. I have an outrageous tight pair of BIKE compression shorts of some unknown material. And yes, they do support my hip joints. A Bench pressing shirt sounds 'right" to me However, even with my slight shoulder...

Also...by that Logic...is there a Singlet or a Uni tard for squatting? Just wondering. Betcha that would feel snug on the nads

Understood...good answer, but besides practicing for competition, is there any training benefit for non competitors? I know those suckers are tight and I can understand exactly how they work

Before I show my ignorance, besides getting your bench press numbers up artificially, what good is a bench press shirt?

I was thinking that halfway through skimming the thread. You have to admit the DIET was funny
