No, that’s not my total right now. That’s what it needs to be to qualify for the Raw Unity Powerlifting Championships in January of 2009 in Florida. For the last little while, I’ve been doing a Sheiko program under the supervision of Eric Talmant. For those of you who aren’t familiar with him yet…

GPP 1.5 mile walk 30 minutes Bodyflex Still feeling quite stiff, especially in the hams and back, however, back at it tomorrow since Saturday is the only day this weekend I’m able to head to the gym.

Its just practice practice practice. I like using a belt when I go heavy (90% or more) on bench b/c of my bad lower back. Just gives more stability, lets me arch higher and harder. Remember, accelerate! Speed is the key. you’re looking a little slow.

Make no mistake about it, it was hard! Especially with that stance and I wanted to stop after the first set but didn’t. They were tough though. Still working on depth and I think this is where the box squats will help. My body wants to squat to what would be considered an okay depth for maybe a …

Susan - I like Dianab’s idea of setting up pins to judge your depth. Depth was a little high and no rep was the same. Rep 3 was real high and I think rep 4 was okay. Hard to tell from the angle. You are doing great and it looks like you could handle more weight. Your bench looked better …

[quote]dianab wrote: You’ll get used to the wider stance, I’m glad you found it helped some. If you can, get someone to call your depth for you, then you’ll know if you are hitting it.
