I doubt it. These people tend to believe their own hype. She probably thinks she really lost that much.

It is Kelly. Her other half owns/runs go gym and she was his 'experiment'.

I hope it back fires but I bet you'll get some people dying to sign up who don't really know any better.

She actually posts up pictures of what she eats everyday. Looks very bland and boring.*

Not a chance it's 220kg, no whip or movement to the bar, piss easy walk out etc.

Given the fluidity of her movement both up and down I doubt it, no doubt it's heavy, but not 220kg heavy

Hey folks, quick question. I'm getting bruised along the vertebrae on the back of my neck when I rest the barbell on it during squats. I'm a girl, so there's not a lot of muscle on that area. Was thinking of putting my towel across my shoulders and resting the bar on that, but wanted to check if this is a good idea. Bit paranoid about anything to do with my back, long story

The bar may be too high up. It should be resting on your traps and you shouldn't really feel it pressing on your vertebrae. Also, the closer your grip on the bar the more your traps will bunch up which will give you a more stable and comfortable bar placement. Hope that's of some use to you.

Yeah I get what you're saying. I have half-decent traps but I feel like my spine sticks out a bit at that point. I'll try your idea and see how it goes. Cheers.

Pinch your shoulder blades together to create a area for the bar to rest on.
