I've found if you aren't badass enough to make the transition from a tennis ball to a baseball/lacrosse ball, if you go to some cheap-ass dollar store that sells tennis balls (basically the shittiest shop imaginable that sells tennis balls), cheap tennis balls tend to be a lot harder. I've got a...

How many undercard bouts teed up before the main event? Trying to get in some last minute study before I break to head down to the bar to watch the main event...

Saw a guy today squatting using the smith machine. Now normally when you squat, the bar is over the mid-foot, because if it wasn't you'd just fall over. Except this guy, by virtue of the fact he was on a smith machine actually had the bar about half a foot further back than he should so he was...

Fuck. I also hate people who want to use the squat rack, at peak time, as part of their convoluted circuit training. At the gym I go to, it's pretty common for people just to bail and leave all the weights on a bar - so if you see an unattended squat rack, even if the barbell is still loaded up...

Make sure you have your upper back super tight, leaving a 'shelf' that the bar can rest on across your rear delts and lower traps, your arms more than anything are there to hold the weight onto the shelf, but the majority of the pressure should be onto your back.

Man. I mangled my back (just have one of my erector spinae playing up after practicing OHS form), and my PT flatmate basically suggested that she'd stretch my back out, and proceeded to stretch me similarly to the first video KILL KILL posted, only with her assisting the twist. She was like...

God. That's a GHR? My gym DOES have one. Sweet, time to start GHRing.

Lately on here there was a discussion about low bar vs. high bar squats. Right now I squat low bar, powerlifter style. I feel like I've only just nailed the form now, but some of the talk about high bar squats made me think that maybe I should be incorporating them. Right now I'm doing SS, so...

Anklets don't do shit all except keep your ankle joints warm. The amount of support they provide compared to the amount of force generated in a Thai kick is irrelevant. But definitely by all means wear them to keep your ankle joints warm.

That happened to me when I started squatting low bar, I think my back just got used to it. I just manned up and squatted anyway when it was bruised and sore.

I used to get sore wrists on low bar too, I found it was super important to firstly make sure you don't have your thumbs round the bar, secondly make sure your wrists are straight, and not supporting the weight of the bar - instead they should be holding the weight against your back.

I don't know if it's just the angle but it looks like the bar was racked more towards the right side, a good few inches of bar past the cage on the right, but the plates up against the cage on the left. Then he set up in the middle, so more weight was on the right. Thus when he started to fail...

I have some of the most intensely clicky ankles ever. For as long as I can remember they've been like this. My physio heard them doing what they do when he had me doing calf-raises. He asked if they always did this, and said if they always do it and there is no associated pain, it shouldn't be a...

Godamn, was that crack the sound of Paul Williams' jaw breaking?

Would be pretty common to call it a 'step-up knee' but there's probably other names for it as well.

Yeah, dehydrate more, possibly hinder recovery.

Uh yeah, but a pro boxer with YEARS of grappling training/experience would then cease to be a pro boxer and would be an MMA artist.....

I think it's important to train with a combination of heavy and light gloves... the people who say 'I train with 16's because when I put 10's on in competition my hands are lightning fast', if it worked like that sprinters would only train in weighted boots and with parachutes - when in reality...
