I'm not sure I know of anyone with such an artistic bent. Surely words alone would suffice for such an epic? I'm now looking back through your rep numbers to see if they correlate to letters of the alphabet to spell out rude words and phrases by the way. | ||

Words alone would indeed surffice but graphic depiction would make it more accessable to a much wider and less literate audience! | ||

Member 1803, 320 posts SQ 175, BP 130, DL 200505.0 kgs @ 75kgs Eq | For today lower ME I had decided to see where I am at with my squat as I haven't really pushed to 1rep max since I did my PB last year with Fat Pete which was the 1st time I had tried a suit so off we went today......and jolly pleased I was by the end too! I just crept up slowly because I really had no idea where I am at and took good rest between the singles. Lower ME Bar x lots 40kg x 10 60kg x 10 100kg x 5 110kg x 3 120kg x 1 130kg x 1 140kg x 1 - match PB Filmed as were the subsequent sets! 120kg x 1 110kg x 1 100kg x 3 Deficit Deads (using 15/10kg plates) 70kg x 8 x 3 Lying Ham Curls 40lb x 8 x 3 GHR With Swiss Ball - works surprisingly well! 3 x 8-10 Abs & Stretching I have to say I am really chuffed with the squats. They felt quite different, strong and confident, no backyness, everything kind of 'set'! There was a wee struggle with the 140 half way up but I cam out of the hole pretty sweet I think (will post vid when I have time to upload then download lol). This has gone well to getting a bit of confidence back on the squat as it still holds a fear factor for me but this can be worked on as that is in the mind and we have ways to deal with that! And how do I get a pic on the Journals page by my link? | ||

Member 1803, 320 posts SQ 175, BP 130, DL 200505.0 kgs @ 75kgs Eq | Took a few days off last week because we were doing short hours...and I could! Lower ME Deadlift 60kg x 10 80kg x 8 100kg x 5 120kg x 3 130kg x 1 140kg x 1 150kg x 1 155kg x fail - got it up off the floor and stuck at me knees. 140kg x 1 120kg x 1 Stiff legged Deads 100kg x 10,10,8 Lying Ham Curls 40lb x 8 x 3 Single Leg Hypers 2 x 8 each leg Abs - 3sets - cables & incline med ball 15 min stretching TPB chewed my hands up today for some reason. I think I have found my weak link in my deadlift @ about 5-6" off the floor. This is where I failed on the 155kg and it was a sticky part of the 150kg, getting up off the floor wasn't a problem and once past the sticky the locking out felt pretty strong too. Should I now practice lifting off 6" blocks to work on this OR do I need to go lower and improve the explosiveness of the drive off the floor? Advice would be much welcomed...anyone????? I still feel I am kinda winging it but making progress which then makes me think with a bit of expert guidence I could wing it a bit less and improve even more! Al well Rome wasn't built in a day and all that! | ||

Yes but I am still very much finding my feet with this type of training. Initially I wasn't rotating as I just wanted to feel my way in but I feel more comfortable and confident as time progresses and so rotating has been introduced. | ||

Marc I had planned to use it today but it was soooooooooo cold in the gym that I could not face any naked flesh, I had 2 tshirts, a lumberjack shirt and a hoody to start off with but I have tried it on in the warmth of home and I think we may have a winner....not super snug but needs a good bit of a jiggle to get me in. I will take a pair of baggy trackies to put over on friday because it aint going to get any warmer and I need to get used to it lol....I am soft what can I say ;0) As for the routine it was planned to start rotating and doing 1RM as soon as I felt comfortable doing so and now I have found a weak link then I can work on it....as soon as I know how lol | ||
