  1. Tis a compound movement; it uses the biceps under tension. You do enough deadlifts and you won't need curls let alone be able to do them properly. So the curls beforehand become A. a waste of time, and B. a potential hinderence to deadlifts.
  2. That isn't really Asia
  3. You got the flu on Monday and were in the gym working out today? Curls before deadlifts? Please go back to the basics my friend
  4. Ishan I'll see you at Good Life
  5. Laos of course
  6. lol
  7. Patrick knows the Virgin wii character safety video very well I imagine I hope he's also familiar with the Dome all day big breakfast, which is a must pre-flight
  8. Jetstar internationally is pretty good. You don't expect much but they still have to fly you in relative comfort to avoid health problems associated with long hail and cramped positions. Would fly again. It's tiger domestic you need to watch out for...
  9. Subtle change of employment
  10. lol you get the free luxury flights, I get the free luxury accommodation! Maid wanted to carry my 25kg case up the stairs...
  11. I don't need banks anymore, for I have CAAAAAAAAAASH TRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIN
  12. Commonwealth bank.
  13. Everyone, this is Scotty.
  14. That or stick to a weight both legs can comfortably drive with and slowly increase weight until they are synchronized. If used to do it on 40kg but now that she has surpassed that (making left leg stronger), it doesn't. It wasn't doing it on 50 recently but I'd say muscle tiredness is likely responsible for this particular incident.
  15. Left leg/glute is weaker than the right; right knee is coming in to save the day and you're shifting the weight over the right leg when the weight gets too heavy for the left to push it's share. It's a mobility issue that needs to be trained out of the CNS, not unlike a dominant arm during bench press but more exacerbated. Your adductors aren't weak, you just don't know how to use them (or moreso, not use them) to keep the right leg from coming in to save the day when "shit hits the fan" and the left leg/glute can't drive anymore.
  16. You can bid for virgin business class these days, if they have spare seat...minimum bid $350...almost worth it on a Perth flight. I had a bid in, but retracted after automotive repair bills came my way.
  17. They neglect to mention this treatment on the platinum cred section of the website lolI should be a silver by the end of the year, by off my own status credits and hard earned money If you keep going you can get plat for life I think? Like 7000+ status creds Dunno when next trip but I wanna go back soon. Will have to tee something up with Jay for dat free accommodation so I don't have to bunk at a brothel in little India

  22. If you wanted a get together you'd have come to the last 42 of them
  23. More than it would cost to send you back to Syria
  24. You don't need the extra strength if the muscle is already capable of stabilising what it needs to. Put it this way: I've never heard a powerlifter say they need to work on their calves so they can go further with their dead/squat/bench. It's not a limiting factor in the scheme of things. They are not muscles that need to be big for anything other than a desired appearance, which as we both agree is difficult to achieve. I would focus on a ton of other things (like basics) before devoting time towards calves like a bodybuilder I think calling quads the most powerful muscles in the lower body is twisting the analogy to suit...if we are comparing legs to arms like I did when I said calves are like forearms, it should be said that the most powerful muscles in the legs (not lower body) are quads, whilst the most powerful muscles in the arms (not upper body) are triceps. Incidentally, both produce a push motion vs the biceps and hamstring which are their pull counterparts.
