The super slow mo high fps really captures the full majesty and power of a 100" waist catapulted through the air.

Deadlift sock question; are these ok, or is there some other magical one? Recently discovered the joy of whacking the everloving **** out of my shins aka snatching and now they don't like it when anything touches them.

they seem fine, you just don't want anything too long so that you need to turn it back.

How do you hit your shins while snatching?

Thinking about getting some adjustable dumbells for my new house.. anyone got any experience with these? The powerblocks in this vid seem to be most highly rated.. though they are hella expensive.

I can get a new 24kg, 28kg and 32kg, all in pairs, for 289£ from Amazon.. If I did want to get a 40kg thatd be an initial 200.. but that'd probably be sometime into the future, and anyway would still be like 200 cheaper than powerblocks..

I think yugo might have powerblocks.

Dumbbells seem like a bad investment. What gear do you already have?

Nothing, just go to the gym.. moving to a new place with more room and a good gym is less accessible, so thought I'd build one.. most of the workouts I do require DBs instead of a BB to counteract sports imbalances.

I have ironmaster (not powerblocks). Would/would/would. Really like them, very solid. The only drawback is that unless you buy additional handles you can't really do supersets, although I'm not sure I really care.

Yugo, would you say you get more out of not doing supersets with dumbbells or taking a few years and not doing anything at all with them?

That was a gimme for someone of DTs ability, but I'll allow it.

Just busted out the scale and maybe bummer--I'm up to 250 lbs. I don't *feel* fat and I have been broflating my arms lately plus GOMAD. It's just the principal of the thing; 250 I'm supposed to be ready to kick some ass at any time, whereas 240 or even 245 I can still get away with "I'm a lover, not a fighter." Actually, now that I think about it I'm still using the same notches on my lifting belt and none of my pants feel tighter, so probably fine.
