The blog by the average guy.....that's what this is and that's who I am. I'm not an expert in supplementation, nutrition nor training. This blog is from the perspective of an avid Muscle&Fitness reader (me) who just wants to put the articles in the magazine to the test and see if it helps bring me closer to my own fitness goals. You can consider me the in-house "lab rat" that will try any new workout or regimine and then give you my honest, unbiased and humble opinion. I'm always up for new suggestions on routines to try so please feel free to add your comments or questions. - James "Lab Rat' Grage
Testing the M&F Strength Bands
We just posted the newest "Lab Rat" video today, which was filmed at the 2009 Mr. Olympia Expo. I just wanted to quickly thank BSN and MHP, as well as their athletes, for participating. In this segment you'll see the Muscle&Fitness Strength Bands (available at www.strengthbands.com) put to the test. Check it out. -James Grage

hey dude awsome job with the bands those things look hella tuff..are you gonna be testing out supplements and nutrition programs form the magazine too?
Hey Robbin. Thank you for the feedback brother. The bands are good stuff. I just started month #2 workouts and doing some new stuff.
We've have talked about integrating some supplement testing into the videos. What I might do is take some of the advice from the magazine articles and the M&F RAW videos (Dr. Jim Stoppani) and try them out. As we come up with new ideas for the videos I'll post them here.

hi im from the uk and was wondering whether the strength bands are available in the uk? cheers
Hi Dave. I spoke with our Online Manager and he said that the strength bands are available at www.strengthbands.com and they will ship internationally. I'm not sure if there is a distributor/retailer located directly in the UK yet. -All the best, James Grage
Cheers mate, keep up the good work!
