    So, who can fill me in on the past 10 years?

    Plow, mate! You know what's bizarre, I've just started riding again (seems I stopped around the same time as you) and stumbled across some old posts from the "Get the girls with our special weight-loss dieting techniques".

    Beautiful pics hakka. Have been getting used to my new Sony A7II, the biggest adjustment being using manual focus with the Canon 50mm F1.4 (FDn) 1:1 Crop at F1.8, got to be happy with that for a $100 lens ]

    Just on this, static stretching pre-exercise actually has a small yet negative impact on strength. Probably not worth dropping pre-squat stretches over but an interesting read none the less. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1150232/

    3 Day Full Body Routine - Advice Wanted

    Ajay, I agree. I used conditioning as a bit of a throw away term there but I would like to do some speed/agility conditioning style stuff on one day. Just not entirely sure how to structure it.... MWI, I'm playing a lot of soccer and have been having trouble with my knees (although turns out it...

    I've been reading along but with not much to contribute. Some big weights being moved in here, good job guys. Have had 12 months of injury after injury. Office life is killing me. Currently battling nerve damage in my knee and can't remember the last time I moved anything off the floor over...

    The HiFi thread

    Slowly delving into the very dangerously expensive hifi world. Just bought a Rotel RA-12 and loving it. Simple, clean and great power paired with an old pair of DCM floor standing speakers. On another note, has anyone built their own speakers off this website? In particular this model. I'm...

    Where to buy + Warranty? Any advice on best place to buy lenses? Think I'll bite the bullet and grab the new Sigma 35mm F1.4 Also, if buying off a grey import site is it worth buying the generic extended warranty (think its normally a 3yr warranty for lenses under $X)?
