10 Miles Back Again

Fixed that for you, don’t even think about bailing, you’ve got it!

No pressure then, eh?

Not at all you’ll unrack it, think wow that was heavier than I expected, squat it for 5 and then think, that felt heavy, but I can still do it easily!

Don’t let the weight intimidate you. You’ve been doing a lot of crazy high rep squat stuff by the look of it, but you’ll easily be good for 120 for 5. I reckon once you get to the top of the 5th, you should remember this comment and then push on, you’ll have 120 for 10 in you.

Anyone know what happens when 120kg of cast iron hits solid concrete? Asking for a friend.

Haha, don’t sweat it you’ll nail it!

The concrete chips. I dropped a plate on my floor.

You’ve done 100x20 or something similar. Absolutely zero chance you fail 120x5.

Exactly. He’ll complete the reps, even if they might not be as pristine as he’d like

So this is what peer pressure feels like. I thought you were meant to encourage me to do something destructive and stupid, not push me towards my stated goals?

Hey you could do both at the same time and smash a load of tren and dbol!

I mean I think you’d be good for 4 or 5 reps at 140kg if you want something a bit stupider to do.

Just want to chime in to add that you can surely squat 860lbs x 3 at least.

Fun fact: I haven’t.

I’m full of fun stories like that.

Work for today:
2 x 11 v-ups
1 x 10 v-ups
Some “travelator” sprints at the beach.
Some work on practising bracing inbetween. Mostly just trying to memorise steps at this point rather than perfect anything.

Yesterday I also did 1 x 11 and 2 x 10 v-ups.

Yer like J said the most likely outcome is a small chip. Unless it is very thin concrete laid by pikeys in which case it will crack like a quails egg :joy:

Do them while doing a hip thrust. That’s my warmup for squats, three sets of 10. Then I do them in a 90/90 position and hold the brace for 10 seconds, 10 times.

Huh?

Lie on your back, feet flat on a wall so that both hips and knees are at 90 degrees
