Wow, just watched this. Incredible strength. Not sure Spoto or Sarychev could bench that legs up, no arch. | |||

While this is not particularly relevant to me at this stage in my training, I still find it very interesting to read about! One thing I don't quite understand is the deficit or sumo deadlifts for the start strength cycle. Clearly deadlifts are different from bench/squat in that there is no eccentric in the original movement but the optimal place for practicing start strength for the deadlift surely depends on the lifter? For me, for example, 2" deficit is easier than 2" block -- I have no problem turning my quads on to start the movement but my posterior chain can struggle to "fire on demand", if that makes sense. Am I confused, or...? | |||

"Leg Day" Romanian Deads x 3 sets Leg extensions x 3 sets loalz. I was originally only going to be here for a week or so, so I didn't bring any proper shorts. Hence, today's travesty. I will go and buy some shorts. | |||

kirkynick said:Even with an empty bar, 100 reps sounds quite difficult and painful Its not a 20kg bar, though. Very rusty and old too. Still, a nice burn by the end and a little shoulder/tricep DOMS today | |||

unit94 said: I nearly always do multiple top sets mate, the last few weeks have been much lower volume due to being around comps so it's not the way I normally train at all. Makes sense, obviously I haven't been paying enough attention! |
