Anybody got some good videos of deadlift techniques, especially from the side. Actually what might be handy is a video point of bad technique, I am just not happy with mine at the moment. What do you think is wrong with it? The problem is, there are quite a number of ways to deadlift with reasonabl...

You should probably have a read before you start to type. The ones getting ripped are the ones, full of righteous indignation.

MunsterMan!!!!!

Connacht have to think. Do they need a short term fix or develop one of their own/sign a surplus player from Munster that can give them a good number of seasons. As I said earlier signing a new coach is paramount. Would McCarthy have stayed if Elwood was there next year or had a new coach been anno...

Zappa's manifesto for a brighter yesterday, today...... - Players should only play for their home club and province. - Interpros should be the only provincial games bar the occasional touring side. - Tests should be restricted to the 6 Nations, Lions and the very, very occasional tour. - No World C...

Again, you all seem to think the lad was forced at gunpoint over to Leinster? I have yet to hear McCarthy say "I really want to stay at Connacht and this is all terribly unfair on us". The lad has a shot at imporoving himself, cementing a place on the Irish team and perhaps winning a HC or Rabo tit...

MunsterMan!!!!!

Call it what you want but it's a poach in every sense of the word. Do you not think having an Irish starter in the team would be just as big a draw as,'if you're good enough you too could play for Leinster after you've played for Connacht' You seem to forget that it is professional rugby and also t...

MunsterMan!!!!!

Here are my thoughts on the matter from the Connacht Clan forum: ======== There are a couple of points here: 1) Macca - Legend. He gave his all for Connacht and I know that he would not have made the move lightly. Don't have any problem with his move. 2) Timing - Right before this incredibly crucia...

MunsterMan!!!!!

Got to feel sorry for Connacht, I remember when I 1st read that Tommy Bowe was leaving Ulster for the chavs. :( Talking about Tommy Bowe, there has been a BBC advertisement doing the rounds (on the Beeb obviously) about the forthcoming Christmas interpros. Shows the squad surrounding Tommy Bowe, wh...

MunsterMan!!!!!

He's growing into his frame as a player I think. Must say a few years ago I rubbished him; didn't think he would EVER have enough about him around the field to warrant being picked solely for his lineout work - but he has come on. He's still no international cam... He is actually, has got a single ...

Mr. Very Popular wrote:How come your man Richie Gray seems to be able to dominate lineouts when he's shorter and heavier than toner?

Very odd.

But I bet he can't lift as good as him, So there.

Telescopic Toner for the lions. I have actually heard he can lift two people at once.

Connacht board flying kites, http://www.independent.ie/sport/rugby/heineken-cup/connacht-snub-for-osullivan-3323241.html Former Ireland coach Eddie O'Sullivan has not been offered an interview to replace Eric Elwood at Connacht, despite contact with the club about the head coach job. Instead, forme...

Cheers Bob, Native and Wom for the advice, very much appreciated. I would like to go with Adidas as they have the traditional of being the best and only, for quite some years, and I would imagine would probably still are the best. But I just know with any Adidas I buy they are quite tight on my foot...

Munster v Glasgow Highlights from Last Weekend https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=od4mNKpw-xE It won't happen this year but there's the makings of a very good side coming together for us. The two games Ive seen the TOD this season, away to Cardiff and that one and he has been rather good I don't mean ...

MunsterMan!!!!!

I'm presuming that you don't have skinfold measurements from the start of the progress checking? I do, he's lost about 5% in the last year (we'd already lost 5% the preview year so he's in good nick) but it's irrelevant. We agreed to base everything on his corporate health review with me thinking "...

MunsterMan!!!!!

I think this shows that the Irish independent has fully turned into a tabloid now. This wit kant just seem to be a younger version of George Hook, with his bias, picking on certain players and downright horrible wit kant. He also is just being outrageous for the sake of being outrageous, something H...

MunsterMan!!!!!

Keatley and Carr were deemed not good enough, keatleys first year in Connacht was paid by the irfu actually, Connacht essentially signed him the 2nd year he played for us. Carr was released by leinster, then signed by Connacht. I didn't know that about Keatley. So you got the guy for free for your ...

MunsterMan!!!!!

I wouldn't take too many positives out from yesterday, Argies should have stead in bed. Gilroy definitely, but I wouldn't be too generous in praise for others as the Argies just didn't turn up. However the one thing that this will give a a small bit of confidence which is lacking in the side, and it...

MunsterMan!!!!!

As kidney said himself yesterday one good win doesn't make up for a poor season. He has had a few of them, two match in the Autumn series were the opposition were tired or just didn't give a fudge doesn't really change that. I hope he proved me wrong on this in the 6n, but there is no way he can be ...

Munsterman - it may be an obvious point but I didn't see it that clearly mentioned in that vid - you do know you're supposed to grip with your thumb over the bar? (rather than gripping around the bar like with any other lift). If it's not that, then sounds like you need to try and work on shoulder ...

You can still front squat... And Womack, I know precisely what you mean. Last weekend I did some high rep squats for the first time in ages, 60kg x20, didn't feel bad but I was sore. Three weeks of consistent effort on it and that would be 100x20. True plus I have a prawler sled, but I just wanted ...

Ok so this evening I was going to change my squat instead of ATG, I was going to do just below parallel and going to change my grip to what Mark Rippetoe suggest in the video below. I am/was doing the position he talking about at around 8:35, and yes I was getting tendinitis but here is the thing I...

It's going to get legally adversarial anyway.

What are people's opinions, Dave I am especially looking at you as the expert around here, on ATG squats vs. below parallel squats, are you needlessly putting pressure on your knees with ATG or are they more beneficial?

Google 'starting strength: a clarification'. ;) It's actually YNDTP That is a fantastic website, now I know the reason my tendinitis, the grip video for Squat is very good.
