Cool, i'll have a look around for a starter pack if I can sweet talk some bands into my gym!

Then I'm mistaken! Never seen anyone without any kind of pop out of the bottom like that, and just land like a bag of mud. Sounds scary, glad I don't have that issue. haha

Thanks F-mac! I only have a standard squat rack at the moment (no pins) so I can't do those right now but for the dimels what rep range would you recommend doing?


Sorry mate, I tried posting a bit more than that but it got a bit screwy! agree with what the guys said tho
