Do you like picking things up? Do you like putting them back down again? And doing it all again?
This is the strength training thread. We have forumers doing all sorts of different strength related sports including:
Olympic weightlifting

Powerlifting

Strongman
![image]()
Body Building

even....
Crossfit

Maybe not (but we can tell how to do a proper continental press).
There's a ton of resources out there on strength training, some of the better ones are:
Starting strength: (best beginner workout)
http://startingstrength.wikia.com/wiki/Starting_Strength_Wiki
EliteFTS (a lot of good form and powerlifting specific information):
http://articles.elitefts.net/
If anyone has other resources, let me know and I'll add them in.
Edit 1:
And another site recommendation from @Jimmy Marku:
http://simplesciencefitness.com/
And a good guide to foam rolling from @Jyardana
http://www.robertsontrainingsystems.com/downloads/SMR-manual.pdf
And another site with some decent powerlifting program calculators
http://www.joeskopec.com/programs.html
And DeFranco's Agile 8 (a good flexibility/mobility routine).
