When I do rows I put the weight down completely between each rep so the rowing doesn't depend so much on my lower back endurance. I found that after I'd done squats or deads already my lower back just didn't have it left to do regular standing rows.

Just another oppinion.

Very true, Fosters is not a great beer.Do you get it over there in the USA? what other Austalian beers do you get?

HIThopper's Sig:There are no shortcuts. The fact that a shortcut is important to you means that you are a pussy. Let me be clear here: if you'd rather take steroids than do your squats heavy and drink enough milk, then you are a Fucking Pussy. I have no time or patience for Fucking Pussies.

i'm not sure what other australian ones we get...if you name some i could check them out....see if we get them

i've had fosters and it was eh...the only cool part was it was a 22 oz. can. i'm not huge into lagers though...to me..most of them taste the same...some are a little more "bitey" than others....but...they don't do much for me...


i think i read that in a quote from a greg norman interview...about the fosters

In Melbourne VB (Victoria Bitter) is the popular beer. Nobody drinks Fosters in Austraila.

Must be all that beer

TALO's Sig:"But when do you actually grow? Well, we don't grow in the gym. In the gym, we destroy. We tear down the body. We only grow when we are recovering. That's right, I said recovery. I see it all the time--people beating themselves up in the gym and not seeing results. They don't understand that hitting the weights hard is only a small part of growing or even cutting down. I could train the same all year round and get big or get ripped just by eating different and taking different supplements"
