    One of the best places to post a form check is bodybuilding.com forums. They have "rep" points that fellow posters give to other posters on the validity of their advice. It by no means makes them an expert, but it adds a little more credence to what they're saying.

    No, I am going to disagree with you. BB tends to do a lot of things that would contradict the Starting Strength program or any other pure strength programs and would actually derail her efforts. if you following Starting Strength it would better to go to the source and post StartingStrength.com in the forums. They have sections specifically just for it.

    Also, unless you are BB that really is the last place you want to do a form check. Training for strength BB and too different things.

    Actually, they do have a good section for powerlifters and strength athletes. Though, I do agree, the SS.com website is great for form checks.

    I'm more of a EFTS guy but SS is good.

    Yes but that is like saying to a guy, there are straight chicks at a gay club. It's true but talk about misdirected effort. :)
