I've always used a mixed grip but apparently I shouldn't be... I've never had any issues with injuries but my left side feels slightly bigger than my right which is apparently caused by mixed grip. What grip are you guys using? | |||

I'm in no rush to lose it. I've started following the paleo hybrid diet and even though it seems unpopular amongst lifters it's doing wonders for my sugar levels as I'm type 1 diabetic. Part of me wonders if I'm under eating on this one though. | |||

See i'm fortunate to work in a sports centre where I can talk to many gym instructors about training but the downside to this is that you get many conflicting arguments :-( lol Some recommend sprints etc but some also recommend some low intensity running with both saying the other is crap for maintaining muscle lol. I'll maybe have a bash at some sprints. How would use do sprint training? length and sets etc. | |||

Hi folks, As the title suggests I'm looking to see what use guys do to burn fat? I've heard good things about using a prowler or farmers walk etc. I've had a browse through some of the other cardio threads but couldn't find much useful info. I'm currently at 104kg last time I weighed myself and im at least 25% Bodyfat lol. It's been a year or so since I was training and uni resulted in a lot of weight being put on lol. I'd like to get under 93kg without losing muscle. Cheers! | |||

I'm also a type 1 diabetic so as well as being careful what I eat for training I also like to avoid thing stupidly high in carbs so that I don't get blood sugar spikes :-) I'm actually taking a look at a paleo hybrid diet. Paleo in general is good for diabetics and ill just add carbs when training :-) Thanks anyway though guys! | |||

Hi folks. Seeing as I like to cook a lot of my meals from scratch but have no imagination to get creative I was wondering if use could suggest a good couple of recipe books I could look at? I have a small one just now and it gives all the nutritional information for the meal so anything similar would be fantastic! Cheers Craig | |||

Peter, those look quite good mate but unfortunately I don't wanna pay 25 quid for gym shorts lol. I went into sports world today and bought 2 pairs of slazenger cotton shorts at £6 each. They are a tad long (2 inches or so below the knee) but plenty of stretch for squatting. Hopefully won't be showing my arse to the lads on the cable machines now haha. |
