leeboy said:ive never had a spotter. never been too bad ive dumped 200 kilo over my head from a squat and bounced 170 down my chest on the bench I've hoyed 240 over me head on the squat (had 2 spotters but they were clueless) but f**k bouncing 170 down your chest. Surely you'd break a rib? | |||

adamdutton said:I hope he does make it to the top level, I always liked him, As to the outburst if you look at the comments he actually says he didnt know she was there and apologises for it. Sounds about right. I didn't spot her until someone pointed her out. Not a big deal in my eye's anyway, I like to see a good ol'fashioned outburst now and again | |||

Fatpete said: So have many others but they don't swear in front of children, tape it and post it on Youtube. I'm sure she'll survive. She didn't even notice as far as I could tell | |||

| So what if he swore at the end? He's f**king coming back and he's quite f**king pleased about it, understandably if you ask me. He's had a rough couple of f**king years | |||

| What the hell i'm gonna give it a whirl and see how I get on. I'll start off light as Tom and Terry recommend and gradually build up the weights/intensity and if I feel overtraining coming on I'll take a deload week whenever necessary or every four weeks'ish regardless. I'll be eating a s**t load aswell as getting plenty of rest so I'm hoping it will work out. | |||

| Only thing you need to do is refrain from jacking off the week before a comp mate. It increases your testosterone | |||

Post Edited: 15.06.2014 @ 11:29 AM by big_mike Ive been training alot recently. Sometimes seven days a week but mostly six, mainly because I currently cant go out drinking, just have a few at home every now and again. All of my lifts have gone up and I actually look leaner while staying the same weight.I was having a look on the net for high frequency routines and came across the usual stuff like Sheiko etc. but then I found an example of Brian Siders training log from 2005 and was thinking of giving something like this a go. Example: Sunday, July 31 2005 Core exercises- 1/ bp (comp grip)- 315x5x2, 365x5, 405x5, 455x5, 495x5, 530x5x5 2/ 3 board bp- 565x6x4 3/ doubled mini bp (med grip)- 315x6, 365x6x3 4/ standing shoulder press (strict, no leg movement)- 225x6, 315x6x2 5/ Cambered bar bp (4 inch increase ROM) with green bands choked- 315x6, 355x6x4 Assistance exercises- 1/ barbell triceps ext-225x10x3 2/ chain suspended push ups- 4 sets of 10 3/ light band triceps ext- 4 sets of 25 4/ mini band side raises- 3 sets of 20 5/ 3 way shoulder raises- 25s with 20 reps to front, 20 to side, and 20 to rear (60 reps total) 6/ green band standing abs- 1 set of 100 Monday Aug 1, 2005 Core exercises-no belt or equipment 1/ box squats (wider than normal stance) with strong bands choked- 425x5x8 2/ box squats with strong bands (normal stance)- 425x10 3/ Good mornings- 355x6x6 with 60 sec in between sets 4/ conv dl standing on 2 inch blocks- 405x5x2, 495x3, 585x2, 675x1, 735x1 (PR), 770 missed at lockout 5/ sumo dl with doubled minis standing on 2 inch platform- 455x6x4 Assistance exercises 1/ seated close grip face pulls- 245x6x3 2/ seated wide grip face pulls- ... 3/ lat pulls- ... 4/ lat pulls with upside down lat bar- ... 5/ wide grip palms facing lat pulls- ... 6/ fat bar lat pulls- ... 7/ chain suspended bodyweight rows- 3 sets of 6 8/ ivanko gripper- 3 sets of 25 Tuesday Aug 2, 2005 Core exercises- 1/ close grip bp- 315x5x2, 365x5, 405x5, 455x5, 500x3x8 2/ 4 board cg- 500x8x3 3/ chain bp (med grip with 90 lbs of chain at the top- 315x6, 385x6x3 4/ close grip rep set- 405x10 5/ ascending boards (rested long enough for partner to change boards)- 335x5 (no board), 335x5 (1 board), 335x5 (2 boards), 335x5 (3 boards), 335x5 (4 boards). used a medium grip Assistance exercises- 1/ triceps ext with triceps strap- 140x12x4 2/ standing rope face pulls- 170x15x3 3/ light band (tied knot in the end of each band) triceps ext- 4 sets of 25 4/ mini band side raises- 3 sets of 24 (8 reps with thumbs up, 8 with thumbs out and 8 with thumbs down) 5/ leg raises- 3 sets of 20 It pretty much continues like this six or seven days a week. Ive edited out the warm up excercises as I wont be doing them and obviously I will have to adjust the weights used. What do you guys think? Anybody ever done anything like this? f**k u josh | |||
