I usually go to Men’s Health until I realized it contradicts what most muscle magazines say about weight lifting. Maybe the Men’s Health Magazine is better than the Men’s Health Website, but I need a good website.

What would you recommend?

I saw a link to [this](http://www.exrx.net/Exercise.html) site on some thread… I comment on how good it is, but it’s the only one I’m aware of.

If you ask this question here you should get some very good results! These people are very serious about their weightlifting.

My 18 year old son has been lifting weights for 3 or 4 years and is pretty serious about it. He favors [Wanna Be Big](http://wannabebig.com/). Nick likes the message boards there because they are well moderated and frequented by people who (he says) seem to know what they are talking about. They have an easy process to post pictures, which he likes because he can check out other people’s development and get feedback on his own. He also posts to a few other forums ([bodybuilding.com](http://bodybuilding.com) is one) but Wanna Be Big is his favorite.
