    Explosive Training and Fat Loss?

    Achieving increases in power requires increasing strength, and increasing speed. Power is a combination of both. Think of strength as how much weight you can lift. Think of speed as how fast you can move it. Power is being able to generate a large amount of force in a constricted time...

    Mega Thread 2012 List Management: Part II

    According to GCFC the condition hasn't limited his AFL performance after-all, so it must have been very, very mild. Apparently just needs a decent per-season under his belt. Worked up over nothing! o_O http://www.afl.com.au/news/newsarticle/tabid/208/newsid/149655/default.aspx

    Mega Thread 2012 List Management: Part II

    I have to agree anything with the heart makes you very speculative, but if you understand the technical aspects of the condition, its really not an issue, given that he has a pacemaker. There isn't a great deal of information out there, however, I found a research article which tested pacemaker...

    Mega Thread 2012 List Management: Part II

    If we were legitimately interested in Toy, heart block isn't the end all for his career. It is simply a malfunction of the heart (for those who were wondering about the specificities of the condition) the heart beat is regulated and stimulated by electrical activity in a number of 'nodes', in...

    Retired #9: Brendon Goddard - Retires a winner - Thanks for everything BJ

    I don't really understand all the complaints about Goddard. Well, I can - its jealousy. He could have been in his 'form slump' for a multitude of reasons when he was at St.Kilda - injury, personal issues with the club, the coach, or perhaps playing in a number of losing, and a drawn grand final...

    How did you start following the Bombers?

    Family exposure early, I remember I was given a great James Hird poster for my wall when I was very young. Favourite colour was red...the club logo of a stealth bomber appealed to me aswell.

    Revising my schedule.

    I think I just read 4.5k run and abs before weights. And no rest days. On second look its probably doable...I dont know, ive just never heard of that much activity before weights before. You would become depleted extremely quickly. But yeah...compounded by the diet, i agree. If you were...

    Mega Thread 2012 List Management - Drafts, Trading & Free Agency (Official/Reported ONLY)

    I watched some footage from last year. Very good kick, plays a roaming, rebound defenders role. The commentators were obsessed with his kicking, and were continuously saying how similar it was to his fathers kicking. So id have to say that his kicking skills must be his trump card.

    Gym & Misc Boot Camp

    ******* PT's are an epidemic right now, they are everywhere. As long as they keep handing out three month pieces of paper that make you a fitness professional, the shit is going to rise to the surface. The whole system essentially relies upon the fact that people dont know what they are doing...

    Revising my schedule.

    This. That program you are on is insanity. Looks like a surefire way to overtrain, the lethargy and lack of energy you feel is no doubt due to overtraining.

    Lunges V Squats

    Completely different exercises. You cant really say lunges are 'king' over squats. It would be more like lunges are supplementary to squats. Squats are compound and place a much greater level of stress over a larger amount of musculature, much more essential for developing strength. Whilst I...

    The necessity of other supplements?

    If youre eating enough protein and your caloric intake is adequate, 9/10 it probably means that your training methods have stagnated. (Note, this is often the case for me, but everyone is different).Try implementing multiple training blocks into rotations i.e. a three week rotation, or even a...

    Running/Fitness The Beep test

    Last time I attempted it I got a cheeky 10 square. Coming off the end of a bulk at 106kg I thought it was an okay effort. But in all honesty the changing directions killed me, and it gets me every time.
