What happened to Ultima?

Hope everyone is doing well. Over the last few years, there has been a growing number of people who have become increasingly involved in the strength training field of calisthenics. Many times, there is a combination of various disciplines incorporated into some of the workouts depending on the...

I'm glad you posted this. I've been considering investing in a good pair because right now I'm lifting in some Chuck Taylors.

I guess that could be debated with someone like Rippetoe lol :D

Right, I understand that. My question still stands mainly bc "upright" has not been widely agreed upon as the most efficient angle to perform the back squat. It may feel or one may believe the back is be maintained in an upright position when performing the squat, but it does in fact lean...

What does staying upright have to do with a Back Squat?..or are talking about a Front Squat?

Squat 3x60x4 *Not sure if I'm hitting the right depth. Didn't do the Face The Wall Squats prior to warming up. I feel like those help emphasize proper technique. Have to make sure I do those before squatting. Press 3x10x5 *Bar falling on wrists? Chest-Supported Row 2x45x6,8 3x55x8

Interestingly enough, I'm surprised there isn't more talk about chiropractic work, deep tissue massage, and the likes within the weight lifting community!

Found this article a while back and found it to be quite practical; hopefully you all can make some good use of it as well! (Note: I only included the basic stretches. Refer to the article if you want to "step it up a notch".) https://www.t-nation.com/training/increase-athleticism-in-6-minutes

What does that mean: "clean"? Have you ever eaten "dirty" food?

Controversy regarding the supposed toxicity and safety of artificial ingredients such as Aspartame and MSG in our products has been a long-standing and only continued to further separate opposing parties. It doesn't seem either party can agree on much other, but I wanted to get a feel for where...

Any link in particular that would debunk the proposed efficacy of LiverCare/Liv.52? I'm all for empirical research as well, however, most of what I've read thus far are people's opinions :)

To make it easier on myself with, I will be recording the weight performed counting ONLY the plates. I imagine the bar itself waves anywhere from 35 to 45 pounds like most commercial gym barbells do. Squat 30x3x5 Bench 40x3x5,5,4 Deadlift 90x1x3 FW 40x2x20s GHR 25x2x8 Today was a...
