The 45lb plates at my gym are seem large (radially). So I started to use a little platform when i deadlift so that I could get lower. But... when i use the platform, during the bottom of the motion it is hard to keep my back straight. I am getting close to chest parallel to the floor (maybe 15...

when you walk into the nutrition section of a wal-mart or other places there are so many different herbs out there ( ie. blueberry extract, msm, st johns wart etc ). Are any of these worth while? I take a multivitamin and Salmon oil but there is so much other stuff. Ideally I want something...

ok this is wierd but i started to lift about 3 months ago and now i always feel like my back is caved in ( like scholiosis ). Is it possible that my butt is overpowering my back and abs? If i flex my butt the problem is solved but its annoying to have to flex everywhere i go. has anyone else...
