| a deload week is where you reduce one or more factors in your training to allow you body to recuperate. You can choose from frequency (i.e. how many days a week you lift), volume (how many total sets/reps you do) or load (how much weights on the bar). Personally i like to deload by dropping frequency and volume, so i'll just do 2 sessions in my deload week, and in them i'll just pick say 3 excersises and do one working set of each. You need to do this regularly for most benefit. | |||

| I dont think Smolov is necessarily a totally bad thing mate, even for a beginner...I just think you'd need to set a fairly conservative projected max and obey the 'rules' (i.e. do nothing but squat, really. Smolov is a lot of strain on the CNS even without 2 bench days). On a side note, you should be deloading one week in 4 or 5 anyway really mate. Impossible to make progress otherwise. | |||

You tried em yet ? Is there any other kind of 15 year old yank? according to the internet the main kinds seem to be: - loonatic black coat wearing gunmen who practise marksmanship at schools - crazily overanimated computer game players - smartarse 60kg 'bodybuilders' who post on forums a lot ! | |||

Originally posted by jimblanchflower... My feeling is that Clive does not need to improve in order to do a massive squat. What he needs is a really good day, when everything comes together. 100% agree Jim. The speed of his 440 at the british just confirms it. | |||

Originally posted by tbench... dont know what happend to that reply but it was i hope your shoulder gets better ben mate,and what are db nose breakers   thanks bud. Erm they're like a Lying Tricep Extension, or some call them Skullcrushers. A little like this: http://www.exrx.net/WeightExercises/Triceps/BBLyingTriExtSC.ht... but you lower the DB's to your nose. It works more the long head of the tricep that helps with lockout. | |||

Originally posted by aaron_lohan... Boar- did the suit make it difficult for you to get your shoulders back at the top of the deadlift? Otherwise i cant see why you would want to ditch it, id imagine yours gives a lot more pop off the floor. Btw is your suit for a sumo lifter or conventional because if you were lifting in a suit designed for a sumo stance then..... Ben- what are your numbers, you should put them on the virtual powerlifting leaderboard? best: 235/170/215 not in comp. | |||

Originally posted by sivvy1... in that last post i think i came across quite abrubptly and wrote what i said in a complicated way all i meant was that my sticking point is above paralell well depending exactly where, front squats could work very well then. Dont worry you came over ok to me im not always the most politest lad int world anyway...just the other day i said to a lass "DOnt be blunt, show us your C.." and let her fill in the gaps. What Ice meant (i think) is that, if all factors are in place, and you have no specific weak points, when you fail a sq, it should be in the hole as thats where the biomechanics of the body are weakest. | |||
