    Recommendations for a new Weightlifting Belt.

    I got my used SBD-belt yesterday, it's a little banged up from the original owner using it for strongman training, but some scratches don't matter much to me. The build quality and leather are amazing, I'll probably have this thing forever. Absolute unit.

    When working out, should we be angry or calm?

    I think some of my angriest sets were the last few sessions of my 20rep squats a few years ago. I really needed to dig deep for those last five or so reps.

    When working out, should we be angry or calm?

    It depends. There's no point in burning yourself out because you're hyping yourself up by being overly angry or intense during a very normal training session, embracing your inner darkness for a PR-attempt on the deadlift does potentially make sense though. As long as you can keep arousal at a...

    Anybody else watch the Arnold Strong(wo)man Classic? That one strongwoman who bashed her face into the frame yesterday and now looks like was in a bareknuckle boxing-match this morning...ooph.

    Tracking calories and lifting.

    Try MacroFactor. Tracking your food and weight will give you an idea of what you burn through every day, wearables probably won't help.

    The RETVRN to TRVE STRENGTH

    Training was great. Lineouts and attack, scrum basics with our new scrum coach, roughly 40min full contact play. Shit hurts, but that's the way it is.

    Joe Bourbon’s Basement Pub – A Sanctuary for All Lifters

    Good for you. Consider opening up the foods you include in your diet though, usually makes it much easier to stick to eating well. Unless you're cutting that is, then eating the same things over and over again is a smart choice.

    A serious question to you all about me writing a weight training book.

    Three red lights, soft elbows in the jerk.

    The RETVRN to TRVE STRENGTH

    Very, very true. I've managed to lose a few kg and am currently maintaining, maybe I'll be able to sneak in some gains even. I've realized my triceps are a weak point I need to work on and the scrum sessions so far have showed me that more back work is also a good idea.

    Body recomp - without counting calories

    If you're just getting back into training or even starting training there's a good chance you'll have an easy time adding some muscle and maybe even losing a little fat in the same timespan. If you can keep your caloric intake quite steady, focusing on "clean" foods might make that easier, you...

    The RETVRN to TRVE STRENGTH

    Strength-testing was way mismanaged by our coaching staff, not enough plates, no squat rack. Not great. Got a 90kg bench and a 164kg squat, could have gone heavier but could not. Got a 15.3 in the YoYo-test and my team almost won the basketball tournament afterwards. My oatmeal cookies were a hit.
