    Well I'm not sure which is more intimidating brah but I've done a 60kph roll on with both and I fkn annihilated them both, the ford was closer but really I smashed em both.

    My weapon of choice, TDi Passat wagon, its chipped n shit n gows hard.

    I had to back off but at around 180 for some traffic lights n shit.

    Gr8 b8 m8, would have had me except for the fact that it's well known that phagmobiles can't keep up with any LS master race powered cars

    I suggest you read the current Government Health Guidelines - I was surprised when someone awared me to the fact that they do tend to keep up with the science.

    dajae: I mean that it carries over in terms of picking up something heavy, and putting it overhead, maybe the clean and press is a better example.

    The guys from PTC Brisbane are planning on doing one deadlift session at a franchise gym on international Chest night (Monday).

    There will be 6 guys who are planning on doing their final strength test a week or so before the comp. They have all pulled over 300kg during their last comp.

    Will wait for vids.

    Should be a good laugh.

    April Fools?

    I like OHP, I think it carries over more into daily life than almost any other lift apart from deadlift, or farmer's walk. It does require more skill than you might think, as I found out the hard way initially. Can either do a slight start with the knees, or not, I do so on heavier reps (as per Rippetoe's method). I also find it a lot more explosive than shoulder press.

    Not a huge fan of Elliot Hulse anymore - he seemed to have some good insights, then seemed to spiral more and more into pseudo science, TL;DR rants about nothing, and filler videos.

    no, shoulder press is done with upper arms already paralell to the ground, totally different movements. It's a favourite with the other people who go to my gym - I'd estimate that 95% of the other people who train there do at least standing shoulder press, if not standing, seated and incline.

    5/3/1 would not be enough volume for most if done without any assistance at all - this calculator here http://blackironbeast.com/5/3/1/calculator

    I do the Simplest Strength template currently, but I might cross over to BBB after a few cycles.

    OHP > Bench IMO.

    Yeah I'd seen reference to DC training in the 5/3/1 book - there's a chapter on it. Rest/Pause training. Suited only for the disciplined who are eating a lot. You also don't rest / pause for squat or deadlift.

    You can work 5/3/1 with DC training.

    Having a structured program where I walk into the gym knowing how much down to which sets of plates that I'll use what I'll lift is the best IMO. I like having a squat assist on my deadlift day, a deadlift variant assist on squat day, and a bench assist on OHP day.

    I do have mates who can't stand doing the same thing for more than 3 weeks in a row though, so I guess its horses for courses. Naturally I'm now stronger than them.

    Figjam, you could do 5/3/1 with minimum assistance too.

    Starting Strength is

    Workout A
    3x5 Squat
    3x5 Bench Press
    1x5 Deadlift
    Workout B
    3x5 Squat
    3x5 Press
    5x3 Power cleans
    Workouts A and B alternate on 3 non-consecutive days per week.

    I've been liking 5/3/1 too - I'm currently using the Simplest Strength template due to it having a programmed main assistance lift mostly - I've finished the first cycle and jumped straight into the second - I figured the deload was more for those who have been doing it for a while.

    It is a slower rate of progression, as it's aimed at the intermediate to advanced lifter
