Bodybuilding/weight Lifting

[Revolver]

Krisboats is stronger than he looks, this man can lift rocks that take two or three people to lift otherwise.

f**k the stack.

Edit: I was going to elaborate on that point, but Kev has pretty much covered it all.

Which is a point, anyone know of any UK online shops which stock Ephi, only found it on Astro for decently priced (but only 8mg)

bump, hit a new pb with the deadlift yesterday, of 187.5 kg.

had a go at 193.25 too, got it off the floor,past the knees, but couldnt fully extend the legs(i know its the easiest bit of the lift, but i was knacked)

boom weighing 228lbs, and deadlifting 415. next mission is to get the bench past 200, but i got a feeling thats going to take me a couple of months(only thing is, im right into it at the moment)

I Benched 125kg yesterday 1 rep. Which is, what 270lbs? so i was pretty chuffed with that. I have done seated leg press but all we had was 170kg so thats as far as that went but id say going from that i could push 200kg. Iv never tried deadlifting anything serious, iv no idea what i could do.

Agreed about freeweights, the range of exercises you can do with them is almost endless.

With my job i get to use the gym for free which is awesome, so i was always working out at home, then started using this on at work,but the downside is its all machines,and the bench only goes up to 210 lbs. Which is cool i mean thats like 90kg,But it dosent feel right. If youve ever gone from a freeweight bench to a machine you`ll know what i mean. You can feel the flex and resistance, its weird. So its all machines apart from dumbells. The heavyiest ones are a pair of 25kg. So iv taken to just using the freeweight bench and using those on decline, flat,incline etc.

I also have a proper bench at my house, along with a pull down, peck deck/back extension machine and freeweights. But as my colleague goes to the gym aswell its easier to use our gym at work and go together,than workout on my own at mine. The problem iv had doing this is a feel iv just stayed at the same level for ages and havent progressed because iv just got used to doing 10 sets of 10 reps with 25kg in each hand. Which is now a doddle.Where as at home it would be 80kg sets. Not as many obviously, at first i thought by doing more sets with less weight i could try avheive the same, but i cant.

So i went back to using my bench at home and its so much better. I do mix it up abit still using dumbells in each hand but because im at mine im not limited to only 25kg. Now iv cleared my garge properly and sorted it all out its awesome, so my colleague can come over mine and we work out there.

As all the guys before have said, get a good diet and your sorted, its crazy the amount of people that buy shakes and other supplements and eat shit and wonder why nothing happens. My colleague was the same, now hes started eating properly and hes getting the results he wanted. Diet is such a big thing which alot of people overlook.

Also as previously mention by the chap above

"your sticking more chemicals in your body, with seemingly little knowledge of what there doing to you or whats in them"

Well id say he was spot on. Theres no need for them.
