Yeah, like they would have been anywhere near a super bowl without him you're right.

If you want abs that show, use resistance. The big compund moves like squats and bent over row among others hit them and you could get a decent six pack if you diet right that way with enough time invested. You'll get a better one hitting them hard but not long at least once a week. Every day...

Yeah, I weighed them. Even on the packing slip it has the handle weighing 8.4 pounds. I weighed my 100 Ib. hex dumbells and they indeed weighed 100 Ibs. I ordered from ironcompany.com. Don't think I'll be ordering from there again.

I will check them out. There are a couple of them around here. Thanks.

I ordered what I thought would be 110 Ib. dumbells for my home but the plates themselves add up to 110 Ibs. and when you add the handle on to it they turn out to be 118 Ib. dumbells. Yet they say 110 on the end. Not really what I wanted. Are all the pro style dumbells like that? Kind of dumb to...

I don't cycle it. I've probably been taking creatine pretty much daily for 7 years plus now. I'm fine. Nowadays I take a few grams Bulk CEE before and after lifting with some taurine. A few grams with breakfast days I don't lift. Unless they come out with 500 or so consecutive definitive studies...

Man, I love the smith machine but only for a few exercises. CGBP, front squats, calf raises, and putting the bar all the way up and doing pullups off it. I don't regret buying it at all 7 or 8 years ago. I have plenty of other stuff though and free weights should make up the majority of your...

Perfect in every way.

As far as convenience, these are tough to beat. They're not the cheapest but so so convenient. Just rip open and and squeeze into mouth. Yes that sounds bad. Coromega Coromega

Arnold worked out twice a day 2 hours each workout, six days a week according to him in his 800 page book. I suppose I'd do the same if Joe Weider paid me to and I had gear given to me. Actually I would skip the gear but anyways. Looking at his recomendations in the book, I've come to the...

I like dumbells better for incline and flat. I don't think they can be beat for chest hypertrophy. More weight on a bar doesn't mean your chest is doing more work. The best grip to work the chest on a bar is wider than most people do, and usually is not the grip you can press the most weight...

I can do 15 pullups at bodyweight and only 5 with a 45 strapped on. Adding more weight is completely out of the question for me probably forever. I'm suprised you can get 3 pullups with 100 Ibs hangin off ya.

Hmm maybe this one will work for you? http://www.factorydirect2you.com/ta.html?ref=googleadws&kw=gas+powered+blender

I think a lot of it is individual. If it seems to interfere with getting back to sleep then it's not a great idea. If you have no problem, then I'd say it can only help. I myself don't set an alarm or anything but if I do happen to wake up in the middle of the night I'll have a scoop of whey...

I dunno according to some people, 20 rep squats are the greatest mass builder of all. I like doing one set of them on leg day. It's a great way to finish quad work cause you should be pretty much dead after a set of them, rest pausing and such...
