Most any gym with a decent set of plates will have a power cage of some variety.  The bars on the side are adjustable safeties. Put them at the height of your chest when your back is arched and if the bar drops it'll protect you from being smashed. What a lovely snype https://i.imgur.com/AKgL8V3_lq.mp4

It can take days before the tear gets big enough to lead to death, and it's treatable if caught fast enough. My little sister had a torn aorta and the doctors figured it was just heartburn. She made it almost a week before the tear just burst open and she died almost instantly.

Power Cages exist and have movable horizontal bars that are designed to keep a barbell from falling and crushing your neck and/or chest. You can also use a power cage for squats as well since the bars are adjustable. I have one in my home gym and each bar is individually rated 500lbs before they start to deflect. E: well, poo poo. Should probably go to the next page before I post like an idiot.

I am not ashamed to say I did that once with a bottle of fish sauce while making onion soup. I ate it anyway cause I was blazed, and I liked it too. Maybe that lady just likes her food really zippy on the flavor

Yeah, figured you meant delts. And pushups are great. Reeeally not the right thread for it, but you wanna see some Great pushups? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KIEAbfk4cQU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JlR8-GxrVZI E: one more. I love these guys. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CunXg0CJ8-8 E2: do check out the rest of their videos if you're interested in getting in shape for cheaps. They have great instructional videos that'll show you how to fix or strengthen various parts of your body, starting from very basic stuff that anyone can do and with progressions that get harder and harder all the way up to Olympic level stuff. That Alex guy is a great teacher and I always get motivated from watching them. Karate Bastard has a new favorite as of 13:42 on Apr 7, 2018 |

Speaking of working out... Is it safe to do a full body workout every other day? I only have limited days I can get to the gym, and latley instead of doing upperbody or lowerbody I just do full body strenth workouts. I am trying to gain as much as I can without getting fat. If I go every other day I will be at the gym 4-5 times a week, is that over training?

Team Silent should get together and issue a statement expressing their disappointment that, after all this time, only one person realised that circumcision was the theme running through all four games.
