 Does not need Advice, knows everything. Member 3505, 3510 posts SQ 295, BP 182.5, DL 290767.5 kgs @ 105kgs Eq | PaulSavage said: It was liquid chalk, didn't get any on anything. You'll be waiting a while for any 'epic deadlift' videos, but i will be doing some form of none epic deadlifts in a few weeks. Looking forward to seeing how much your deadlift has increased by not doing them. | ||

How much closer to your 150kg log goal do you reckon you are now after your period of henchness? | ||

 my buttocks hurt Member 337, 2119 posts SQ 300, BP 140, DL 305745.0 kgs @ 125kgs Eq | PaulSavage said: Awesome spelling, well done, is that a pb? If you don't care about rows you might as well not care about overhead, and since you don't care about overhead, you may well not care about cleans, and since you don't care about cleans, why care about front squats? If you don't care about front squats, why care about back squats? Or bench press? Or deadlifts? Or any form of lifting? Or posting in somebodys lifting log on a lifting forum? Clarity of written communication is something we should all strive for. And don't pretend you don't enjoy the attention! To elucidate on my point, the bent-over row really isn't a great way of measuring your strength development. There is plenty of opportunity for 'body English' and, no real clear criteria for judgement. The translation to a deadlift is also questionable at best. It all looks rather like you are simply trying to avoid deadlifts and squats. Why, I have no idea. But to then set the delusional targets will inevitably attract comment. | ||

Your not really getting the concept of injury prevention with this. I'm not thinking I'm suddenly going to add a load on my deadlift without doing them, i'm trying to add to it in the long run by preventing injury. Specifically to rowing, i often pull my back on the right side where the rhomboids are when i push deadlifts, hence the rows. Log - no idea. | ||

Yes i am avoiding doing squats and deadlifts, i'm not doing them at all. The last time i pushed back squats i managed 200kg x 10 with no wraps on an axle, i am hitting pb's in every pressing exercise almost every session, and in my last back workout i row'd 10kg more than i have before, for twice as many reps, with far less body English. It's pretty obvious i'm getting stronger. | ||

Member 2775, 6927 posts | Post Edited: 22.04.2014 @ 12:21 PM by PaulSavage bodyweight = only 123.1kg (seem to be losing fat)Was happier with yesterdays pressing, much better than prior session however was still slipping on bench half way through the sets, must be a technique thing also. Only a couple pressing workouts left on this phase so may just go reps with four 20's and four 20's plus a ten slingshot, not sure. Next phase will be doing dead presses since i'm weak from the bottom and also bring my shoulder strength back inline. Triceps are strong now but chest and shoulders are lagging. 182.5kg rows in the morning. | ||

Member 2775, 6927 posts | Was very happy with the rows earlier, hit my rhomboids very well, much better form than the 160kg x 6 i had done before this phase. Am eating cleaner now with more protein, having shakes between meals and probably 7500 calories instead of 10,000. Just felt like i was putting on needless fat. Would much rather get to a lean 125kg than a fat 132kg. People are commenting on my size increase now so must be gaining muscle/losing fat. Not sure if i will be recovered enough for pressing friday, triceps still really sore. | ||
