    Strength Weight Training: Anything and Everything II

    Thanks mate. All time PR is 127.5kg in 2017. Had some time off with a few knee reconstructions and sport focus. Managed to get it back to 125kg with about 6 months of hard work.

    Strength Weight Training: Anything and Everything II

    Bench 1RM is 125kg and I went at 50kg today (65% of bodyweight, just easier with my plate mix). That's good to know! Might need to go even lower.

    Strength Weight Training: Anything and Everything II

    Starting to throw in a rate of force production day once per week now. My strength problem is well and truly taken care of, now it's just about effectively utilising it Power cleans, fast deadlifts, squat jumps, fast bench press at ~60% body weight.

    Player Watch #27: Miller Bergman - BFNAAK - Extends to end of 2025 - returns to the team against the Eagles

    Mate we can't afford to keep blokes on the list for another two years if they're not showing much. So far all he has shown is a couple of decent kicks and an inability to physically compete. He has been on an AFL list for 3 years. That's a long time to transform your body. I rate some of his...

    Training 2025 Pre-Season - Standards are currently being driven

    It doesn't worry me too much. Transition to the forward half, leading patterns, and finding marking targets is so far and away our biggest problem out of 2024 that I'm glad to hear the coaches are dedicating a lot of time and effort into making that gel.

    Training 2025 Pre-Season - Standards are currently being driven

    Same. I know my 'Wardlaw could at some points find himself in the twos for a run' copped a bit of stick and laughter, but the message I was trying to get across was that Colby has an absolutely indomitable will to impose himself as a first choice midfielder. And from all reports I'd heard was...

    I have a major sweet tooth so I just factor that into my calories and macros for the day. Lots of people also go overkill on protein which makes the rest of what you eat really rigid and inflexible. There's no easy way about it - those first four or so weeks of dieting while your stomach gets...

    It definitely went through parts of St Andrews as I helped repair some houses there, just missed a lot of the more populated areas and then ripped through Strathewen, where I had some mates who luckily survived. Terrifying and horrific hey. Thank you for all your work you do.

    Nearly ran through us in Greensborough. We were evacuated. Winds turned at the last minute and then it swept up through St Andrews.

    I don't know much about the Caucasus so got no idea there. But from personal experience, some (not all, some in rural areas are seriously struggling) pensioners have gone from scratching together an existence and their only interaction with other parts of Europe being lucky enough to hear about...

    In the areas I have a lot of insight into, even a lot of the older generation who have a bit of nostalgia for those times, have been won over. It's genuinely heartwarming.

    It was two way. So yes it was partly their fault. History panned out the way it did, they no longer exist, and lots of people in that part of Europe now enjoy better relations with other Europeans.

    Not sure I agree there. Many people living in the former Soviet Bloc countries seriously appreciate and love being able to visit, see, interact with and generally form friendly relations and common goals with other parts of Europe. Things haven't been flawless (and the 90s were horrible) and...

    Yeah that's it! There is a school of thought which suggests a lot of variety isn't the best anyway, and there's something to be said for the 'real gains' that come from doing the same exercises all the time.
