    I'm in the Emirates. How do I watch rugby on TV??

    I'm from the US, and since we don't get the channels elsewhere in the world which have rugby, I have no idea how to track it down. I'm in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates for a few weeks for work. Several times I've been walking past a TV with rugby on it, but don't know how to go about asking a...

    workout tips?

    There are more ways of working out than you could imagine. Most are effective. Personally, I think you're kind of mixing up your workouts a bit much. For example, why pull-ups on chest day? Pull-ups are primary for your lats, with several secondary muscles, but I don't think they belong with a...

    Oklahoma HS starts a Rugby program... defeats schools 20X thier size

    Around here, I would say definitely. I graduated High School in 2005 with around 7 teams, now there are around 11 or 12, and there's now a large tournament that brings in around 20 teams. The rugby association around here has taken off, and there are more players per team getting involved...

    Oklahoma HS starts a Rugby program... defeats schools 20X thier size

    Allow me to clarify to anyone who has no idea what's going on. I played high school rugby in Oklahoma, US and have maintained involvement. This video is at some sort of press day or something for high school gridiron teams. High school football coaches in Oklahoma typically despise rugby...

    What is the most serious injury you have suffered?

    The place is called Fleet's Feet (I have no clue as to why), and I never heard of it until recently when a mate of mine mentioned it after I complained of running pain. If there are any running or fitness clubs (that organize marathons, memorial runs, 5k's, or any other fitness oriented events)...

    What is the most serious injury you have suffered?

    P.S. For who was asking about shoes, I don't know about where you're from but here there are specialty running shops that only sell shoes and stuff for runners. They put you on a treadmill and watch how your ankle and feet work and recommend shoes accordingly. I don't know if it's a scam or not...

    What is the most serious injury you have suffered?

    Concussion, bruised most of the ribs on my left side (hardest hit I've ever received), right ankle is shot, left MCL, 11 stitches in face and glued shut once, broke 3rd metacarpal (i think that's what it's called) in my right hand, hyperextended right elbow, some sort of dislocation in my right...

    Training For Rugby

    Fair enough. I'll play. This is my off-season routine. During season it's usually a trimmed up version of this. A couple fewer sets or days at the gym, but more calories. On season coincided with school, so that took time, and a helluva lot more being banged up (I don't lift when hurt). 1.1...

    Putting On Weight?

    Go to a bodybuilding website and look up diets for bulking and follow it strictly. You will also need a quality routine. I recommend going to a website strictly for this type of thing. Though some people on here have good advice, there's so much more information readily available at a dedicated...

    protien shake

    Forgot to mention, Optimum Nuntrition Gold Standard Chocolate is by far the best flavor I've ever had. Also, may want to look into weight gainers to go with or instead of the protein shake. Has the carbs and calories to go with the protein necessary to put on mass.

    protien shake

    There are several topics on this, but few on here are particularly good. Go to a bodybuilding site and lookup diets for bulking. I know you're not trying to do bodybuilding, but it's the same kind of weight you're trying to put on. The guy who said it all goes to fat had no idea what he's...

    how many people here have played against someone else on the forum

    I've played O'Rothlain's team several times. He was probably coaching in all but one of the matches.
