brownbear said:Good stuff mike you looked good on those squats, but in some pain on the deads? Aha you are brown bear, makes perfect sense! Yeah It's a painful process that will improve I think in time Rest is not the answer with this problem and de glassing my back is the target Having said that I wouldn't wish a bad back on anybody | |||

fctilidie said:[url=]www.strengthshop.co.uk/powerlifting/bands.html[/url] Most people on here can vouch for how good the service and products are from there. How do they compare to the other bands mentioned on here like lifting large etc etc and can they be used for overhead as well as what it says on the website? Also (buzz may know the answer) the girl on the strength shop website... How much can she squat? | |||

| Tuesday 27th December 2011 10 minute jog followed by a 10 minute walk Huffing and puffing to blow the house down (and get rid of my chest infection) Wednesday 28th december 2011 Back squats 60x5 100x5 140x5 180x5 14.5" deadlift (bar on one black and two green mats) 60x5 100x3 140x3 180x1 200x1 220x1 Stuff legged deadlift 60x10 100x5 140x3 180x3 Calve raises 80(3x30) Crunches 30(left knee raised) 30(right knee raised) 30(both knees raised) With my chest infection I was too tired to do my lower limb stretches and the gym was closing On the pulls I used mixed grip, alternating each set Not impressive at all but I have to take what I can | |||
