you can get google to do conversions for you.  Just type '220lb in kg' into the google search field.

works for all other coversions too, temp, distance etc.

WolfRamAlpha is better for this stuff imo.

Irish, where dya get the bench? How much?
Looks more stable(ish) than the one I was thinking of getting.

Argos - link

Around 60 quid. I'd highly recommend it. It's nice and wide and very stable.

I have some questions on nutrition. I really don't know how to make 'small' changes that will effect my body/workout in a positive way... I always eat what my mum makes me

Anyway, for example, what would you eat at 10PM when you're hungry just before you're going to bed?

I personally don't eat ANYTHING after I have my dinner (6PM-7PM). I live at home too with my parents and I gotta eat what I'm given. My parents cook healthy food but sometimes it's quiet low on carbs/protein so go for seconds

Same here. Luckily my mum has quite a good thought on what's healthy, but just healthy food isn't always the best for gaining muscle I guess.
And what do you mean with seconds?

I eat at 6PM too, and not eating anything after that would be crazy for me!

Going up for seconds = finishing what you get given, then going to get another plate.

Oh I see.

I usually don't stop eating 'till I'm full (for example at 6pm), but around 8pm I'll already be craving for something to eat..

Fill your stomach with water instead

I love this fucking song

Good tip, I rarely drink 1.5l a day..

And yes, good song, I listened to it a lot when I was younger, great lyrics too

At least 3l of water/day to improve skin/muscle growth tbh.

Blitzed the chin ups on Friday night, 5 sets of 7 reps, last set nearly ruined me. A couple of lads must have thought it looked easy, they had a go after, barely did one cos they went about it all the wrong way. I don't know why people like that won't come and ask about an exercise like that, obv they wanted to start doing them but maybe they felt too proud to come and ask, if i didn't ask fellow gym users i wouldn't be doing half the exercises i'm doing and i'll be doing it all wrong still.

I did some bench after but it was too quiet to find an able 'spotter' and i nearly dropped the bar back on to me Had to dig real deep. Felt so good.

I'm one of them gym lurkers who watches but doesn't ask. Then I attempt and fail. It's just how I roll bruh

The best Whey Protein you can get is ON: Gold Standard. Without question. The taste and make up of that shit is just fantastic.

All-in-one for me. Went for ON: After Max to being with, was very good but it got discontinued. So I bought

PHD Synergy Iso-7


I use that with Optimum Nutrition: 100% Gold Standard Whey

Really good shit. I can put on 6-8 kilograms of muscle weight in 1 month with that stuff. It's ridiculous. I should be taking 2 a day, but I've reduced it to one because I simply have not had the time to get 2 down me (with an hour break before workout and the post workout one).

Kommando, how is the taste of the VPX shit? I've always wanted to have a go at it, but it's price just does no justify me buying it.

Am I the only one who doesn't take any supplements at all lol?

ON is good, but clutch has all the same stuff, two more grams of protein per serving and is cheaper.  Shotgun tastes ok in watermelon... But its like the only pre and post workout mix that has protein in it as well. 20g of whey isolate per serving, so thats 40g with my pre and post workout drink.

Also, the energy rush is amazing with NO shotgun.  I almost cant train without it now.  Plus the pump the NO gives is amazing!!!

Wha? Iso-7 has protein and it's both a pre and post workout shake.

So does After Max. So does Cyclone...

There are lots that contain protein and creating and everything you need for pre and post workouts.

"Tastes ok"? Does that mean it's pretty foul, but drinkable? Because ON tastes great, and so does Iso-7. It's a bit rich (Iso-7), but you get used to it.

Im not familiar with after max or cyclone or iso-7.  the NO stack is mainly a creatine and nitrous oxide suppliment with protein added in for a little extra kick.  Im talking about that family of supps when I mean pre and post workout, mainly used to expand the blood vessesls, delivery creatine, and provide an energy rush.   Its actually more than drinkable in watermelon, it tastes like jolly rancher candy.  The other two flavors (grape bubblegum and exotic fruit) are drinkable.

alot of people dont.  But im pretty serious about my lifting. While supps arent the answer, they certainly help.

Pre-workout supplement:

Those supplements are way overpriced considering the lack of results they actually provide. TBH people start using them and working out and after seeing positive results they put it down to the workout/supplements when it's probably most the workout, and a very small bit of the supplements proving the positive results.

If that makes sense

Placebo effect

sorry but what you say is false.  If you and I were on the same diet and same workout plan, and I was on supps, I would see greater gains than you more rapidly.  They may be expensive but they do work.  These suppliments allow me to take in more protein and other beneificial compounds that you cant get simply by eating right (not to say that its not VERY important to working out) quickly and effeciently.
