Hi guys, Can anyone Suggest a good pair of cotton shorts for training? I ordered some cheap ones on ebay but they came from China and there XL was more like our medium lol. Preferably inexpensive ones of reasonable quality. Cheers! | |||
» reintroducing myself... (Go to post) | 26-12-2014 @ 15:12 | ||
Hi gents, I briefly used this forum a few years ago but dropped off it when I stopped training when I went to uni. I thought I would reintroduce myself as I'm getting back into the gym and fancy doing a bit of powerlifting this year now that I'm no longer playing rugby. So Hi! Will look forward to gaining loads of information from you guys! Thanks Craig | |||

Ok, So I have been in touch with lee, He gave me some info and also told me there are some rugby guys like myself there I played No.8 and Flanker Anyway, I'm hoping there is someone who trains there that might be able to show me around and hopefully show me what I'm doing with the different bits of kit so I can keep embarrassment to a minimum ... I don't just want to turn up and randomly start lifting stuffs when I don't know what I'm doing Also, I'm guessing that because I'm doing all my strength training in my every day gym, that the strongman gym is just used for technique? Do I still need to design myself a workout routine for there as well? or is it a case of just do what you feel like doing? ... Hate feeling like a noobie :O lol Cheers Craig | |||

On a Wednesday I do Bench and Shoulder Press On a Friday I do Deadlift and Barbell Row On a Sunday I do Squats and Powercleans What use think? I'm struggling with my diet a bit, I'm trying to keep my calorie count low by sticking to 2000 per day just to get my body fat down then I will up it How do I figure out how many calories I should be eating in a day? i'm sure there is a way to work it out depending on how active you are etc etc | |||

I have also came to the conclusion that no one actually does any form of arm work on its own if you catch my drift? Everyone in the Rugby scene and on here seems to hate the idea of curls etc, How then do i train arms? :O ... I'm quite confused, i have trained for a while just not for anything specific ... when training for Strongman should i just stick to doing variations of: Bench Shoulder Press Deadlift Squats Powercleans What would i do for back? Any examples would be great? Theres just too much to know |
