Re: tractor tires
Thanks, and yes it is. A pickup truck comes in handy up here and the Ranger is small enough that my girlfriend can drive it.

Re: tractor tires
I went today and picked up the one in the picture for $15. They had acres of suitable tires to be had. It was worth it to get my pick of the tires. I was able to find exactly what I was looking for,...

Re: tractor tires
I moved to Denver and was wondering the same thing. Since I would assume others local to Denver would also like something more specific than, "ask at tire stores," I thought I'd post what I found. As...

Re: EU affiliates against CROSSGYM
If CrossGym wins, it means anyone can open a CrossGym gym. Crossfit will still be protected, just not CrossXXX. Crossfit didn't invent any of the exercises, so they can't argue from that stance....

Re: Level1 for Newbe?

Re: Strength & Conditioning books

Re: How maany times a week to train?
While there is, obviously, an element of factitiousness in Louie's quote, I think he did mean it that way. It obviously sticks in your brain, which achieves part of the intended goal. The other...

I did it this summer and gained 30lbs of muscle. It's a very effective program, but it requires more testicular fortitude than the average person can handle. I suggest getting the book Super Squats...
