I'm also torn on buying these. I need better shoes but the reviews are either great or awful. I do want a half inch heal and I haven't seen any...

Even though people think you're a troll, the advice has been solid. Add a gallon of whole milk a day, should start seeing the scale move.

Gallon of milk a day can make older guys "chubby", but clearly that's not an issue for you. I'd get on it right away with some whole milk. If you go...

Personally I'd just do 320 next workout. Too big of a jump might be hard to recover from.

Practically speaking, I can't imagine thinking about relaxing any muscles during the squat. Especially the hip when I think "active hip" while I'm...

I wonder if for the heavy day if you can just increase the intensity and cut the reps per set until you have a set up suitable for pin press.

Do you own a copy of Starting Strength? Not a bad way to see what SS has to say about it.

That's not true. You can purchase stuff with bitcoin now. And it's not a huge jump to see people paying in bitcoin. I'm open to any solution to hedge...

Is your heart not beating through your chest after a set of squats?

Like this? Ironically, the incident below helped me find the best spot to hold the bar, because my thumbs and wrists are too sore to hold it...

Yea, resetting my squats kick started my deadlift. The problem with fat is it hides in all foods, but there's no mistaking what a pile of potatoes...

Lifters were jealous of runners having "burn out" as an imaginary excuse out of training so they invented their own.

I agree with you that you're rounding. If you watch the video that just dropped on putting down the bar, you can see how tight Bre's back is. I have...
