It's best to make a video of both your games and results from physical tests.

Honestly, if you're a good rugby player, you've got a chance at being a good football player, especially kick-off and return since you're used to running down the field and trying to knock the nearest opponent out. Also, at 16, you're still young enough to train to play. What I know the...

I've lifted weights without steroids and can say I wouldn't touch them. I took my time getting stronger and felt good because I knew my efforts and my God given body is what got stronger instead of a certain pill or a liquid. Along with the physical strength I achieved, I got a boost in my...

I know, but I was just saying that there isn't to much benefit to condition yourself for free weight before hand with body weight exercises since you can start off light to build your technique and endurance. Now understand I'm not ragging on bodyweight exercises since they give your body...

The best way to train for something is to do it. Starting Strength is a good program, but I've had personal experience with this one when I got back to lifting weights: http://stronglifts.com/stronglifts-5x5-beginner-strength-training-program/ At your size, it will work pretty fast.

I applaud your training regiment, but they both still look alike to me. And it's not because I'm just being contrary, but the smaller powerlifters from 130 to 170 can be stronger than the big guys proportionately because of the lower body weight relative to how much they can lift.

Why pay money for a membership and gas to get there when you already have most of what you need? I'd get a squat or power rack, some more weights, maybe some rubber mats and just work out at home. If you get a basic grasp on the techniques for certain lifts, do it in moderation, and know what...

To be honest, a gymnist's physique looks basically like a small powerlifter's.

Wow, sounds like hit you hard. So your ex divorced you, took away the kid, and is getting ready to start selling pills. It's not all your fault; how you deal with it though will be. First, concentrate on getting a job. Second, work out so for the next few months you'll be tired enough to...

Been two years? I think either she's waiting for you to move this relationship further or she's getting ready to jump ship.

My view on racism is that it is basically just perpetual theft and all theft amounts to is taking something against someone else's will. See the easiest way to get something from someone else is to make them believe that a certain scenario is the only way things can exist, and a racist will use...

I just got into a management position and I'm still learning the ropes. Two things I have stuck with are letting the other person see you working and to not add anything negative. One thing I hated working at one job was a lazy manager. I understand there are duties to be done, but being in...

It's the snout.

This year I've had it were my phone was off or broken and I've made it by going back to what I had to do before I had one: finding a land line, remembering numbers off the top of my head, and having patience. It's convenient to have one, but I could honestly get by with a house phone. The only...

This discussion of Valentine's Day reminds me of this time a radio station had guys calling in about how they would convince their wife to give it up in the morning. I found two things wrong with it. First, if you're using your mouth to ask your wife to have sex with you instead of using it to...
