tiger75: Soundlab: I did see a nutritionist a short while ago before starting pump and RPM (not because I was starting these, but because it was part of a medical I was having). They did analysis on my diet (based on a food diary that I'd been requested to keep leading up to the ''meeting'') and advised a few things I should change (there were ...

I was told a single set of 10Kg plates were being shipped to my club to determine if they were properly drilled for our weight bars before ordering larger quantities of same.  Has anyone else in the USA gone through this experience?  In the past year I've heard almost every excuse in the book short of my dog ate the order to explain why ...

My club has a female instructor who's 6' built like a tank.  All of her squats have 8 or more bottom half repeats without fail so what otherwise would be easy tracks become more difficult than the past 10 releases.

I find tracks with long tricep dips the hardest, especially when a 20 lb dumbell is added to the lap.  By comparison tricep pushups don't bother me.

Terratron: BillyG:Hands down it's got to be the song from Pulp Fiction with ultra fast singles.  Not a long song but faster than anything else I've heard for biceps.  Anyone know the release and song title? 57 - Pump It (by The Black Eyed Peas) Turns your biceps on fire in just 3 minutes and 30 seconds.  Yep, release ...

When I first started teaching high impact aerobics in the mid 80's everything was highly corriographed and dancey so members expected classes to be the same between instructors.  Two years later free style was introduced and members started expecting something unique with almost every other class.  While most of the BP instructors at my ...

How long in cm or inches are the bars that are problematic?  Still waiting to see 10 Kg plates at my gym and till then have been using 3 5 Kg plus a 2.5 Kg plate on each end for chest press. As a 6' guy I find the current bar lengths adequate but it would be nice to have an extra 2-4 inches added on each side.  A couple ...
