  1. Whats happening to the Giants? I was expecting a tight game in Atlanta, im shocked.

    Backup QB Cousins is playing very well for the Skins, not many gadget plays either...

    Redskins are running the ball on the Browns defence 2nd half with the Browns having to watch Cousins bootlegs to the other side. Skins D also looking good and slowly getting better, although Weedon isnt having a great game.

  2. Where have you been? We were here during the game. Nice of you to show up.

    Lets be honest the only thing standing in the way of the Giants is the Giants.

    Sorry, didn't realise I HAD to be here for the game, I'll remember for the next time...

    Let's be honest, whenever the Giants lose it's always someones fault, not much credit for the opposition and the Giants are always the ones shooting themselves in the foot. Let's face it, both Skins/Giants games were a toss up and nothing to do with 'the Giants beating the Giants'.

  3. Here's a good vid from Rippetoe about the lower back. I found it really interesting. Shows a couple of good techniques to making sure the lower back is always straight.

    "Drop your dick between your knees!" :D

    Really good vid. The exercise that the guy does prone and raising his knees is pretty much what Id been shown by a pilates instructor recently, my lower backs felt stronger since.

  4. The deadlift looks fairly tough on the lower back too. I suppose I'm not going to be able to eliminate all risk from the lower back. I think I've enough to go with for this evening :) (all nervous like). These are big boy exercises now :)

    On your deadlifts, just make absolutely 100% sure your lower back stays straight at all times. if you do that you won't hurt it. It'll hurt in terms of muscle soreness, but not in terms of doing anything wrong to it.

    If you start rounding that lower back then you're in a world of trouble. Absolutely key.

    I started doing deadlifts last year but my lower back wasn't strong enough for and I'd lose form quickly. I was told to work on keeping as much of an arch in my lower back and thoracic spine as possible...thoracic is the top of the spine from the shoulders down. My back was pretty weak after an op so was given some exercises to flex and strengthen it...the 'waiters bow' worked quite well for strength and I did this thing where you have your knees slightly bent and push your hips back and forth, this helped with flexibility along with Mckensie extensions and other things. I benefitted a lot from what i did last year.

    The guy that advised me worked at the local gym and was always pointing out how bad everyones technique was...arching backs especially, putting a lot of stress on the lower back. A lot of them were putting a massive amount of effort in but with poor technique, not getting the full benefit of the exercise and messing their backs up at the same time.

    Didn't mean to go but it all came flooding back :)

  5. **** :)

    Claret, you can't buy a small bird anymore but you can rent a midget. Do that.

    Not much else happened Rev :) You just missed 19 goals including penalties.

    Designer. Good news. You're not wrong! I won't bore you with the science.

    Thankyou!

    :)
