Andy Dick:
Is there anyway to revive this forum? It seems like many of the people who used to post on here a lot do not anymore. Are they still here just lurking or have they left? I remember I got attracted to the site because there was good weightlifting discussion on here and I would like to see it back. I know there are some great minds that have been on the forum and would like to see them back contributing.
Is there something we can do to spur discussions on weightlifting or programming?

Keep in mind weightlifting is a rapidly dying sport in America.

Also here, goes well mainly in China, Iran and Turkey
The fact is that weightlifters today have small harms and big tights and buttocks..... To remedy should be reintroduced an exercise for the upper body, such as the press sitting on a bench (not the benchpress).
America was dominating just until his higher point in 1956 with Kono and Paul Anderson, But Anderson' body was so ugly exactly in the years when Steve Reeves was making money with the cinema....... :)woohoo
Yet powerlifting still pulls there, in any sense, although it is not an Olympic sport, i think because represents more the idea of strenght, while wl does only for the lower part of the body.
