  3. Question on shoulder injury...

    Close to 4 weeks ago, I was doing standing military press when i felt a series of cracks in my shoulder and sharp pain.

  7. Pre-Training Meal Ideas?

    I'm hoping some of you who are much wiser than I can tell me some good pre-training meals to eat.

  8. First workout with USP labs Jack3d!

    I was a little worried about taking Jack3d after several reviews I had read about people not being able to sleep. First, I enjoy drinking soda, and I figured Jack3d would be a good way to stop this unhealthy habbit due to the amounts of caffine in each. I took it as directed about 30 minutes...

  14. Inzer Predators vs Metal Ace Pro Briefs

    I have never bought any form of suit/shirt/brief for powerlifting and these are going to be my first purchase of gear. I've heard these are the two best choices and I was looking for advice on which would be best. Some important info (I think): I use a sumo stance for deadlift, and a wide...

    My best conventional pull was in a high school competition in 2008, where I pulled 540lbs. I'm playing around with the stance and I'm going to give conventional a try once again, however, I figured since I have very wide hips sumo would be the best choice in the long run.
