A Southern Revolution - The Log of DF and TBA

I’ve always preferred to do barbell rows a bit stricter.

Although I’ve never really tried out pendlay rows with the dead stop and all.

Edit:
Well, there was a video. But the mods deleted it.

Look up Yates trains back with kai green. It can be found on a site I cannot mention.

PeteS - doin some abzzzz tomorrow
DoubleDuce - I will check that out

DE Squats and Pulls

Everything felt heavy today, dunno why, but overall got good work in. If you watch plates on the right on the 405 video, on the second set they slide real bad. Threw off my balance and made that set crap.

I need to score a tire like that somehow. I bet that’s real “fun” to play with lol

I like all of the sound effects in your squat vid. Confused about the sliding plates, holes too big for the bar or what?

Always good stuff in here.

Is that a scoreboard above and to the right of the power rack?

That big ass tire does look pretty fun.

ashylarryku - fun is a interesting way of describing it haha

veggiestrong - the only clips we have at the gym are those weak squeeze ones that get loose with time, when I stood up and stepped back, the loose clip didnt hold the plates in place. Yes, that is a scoreboard, the weights are on half a basketball court haha

They should count your reps on that scoreboard

Solid work my friend. Nice squatting. Do you have access to lumber and carpentry tools to build a box? Squatting to a narrow bench just looks uncomfortable to me. I have done wooden boxes, Elite FTS boxes, plyo boxes. Don’t think I have gone to a bench since the 80s, lol

ME Squattin

Long day, was delayed getting to the gym due to tornados and storms. Took my bands to do reverse band geared squat, did not take into account the fact that my rack here is about a foot and a half shorter than the one in little rock, so the bands didnt help much at all. Had trouble getting loose, each set felt miserably tight, finally got frustrated and went for an all time PR, and got it, albeit grinding it out slowly.

You’re a beast. Quite literally, I like how you pump yourself up.

Happy Birthday!

Congrats on the squat PR.

An observation: your wheels could use an alignment. I noticed how you shifted towards your right leg as you came up. Almost everyone that I come in contact with has some kind of pelvic imbalance. Easily fixed at least.

DF’s starting the new dance craze, y’all. It’s called the PR stomp! Speaking of dancing, you’re making me nervous tap dancing with all that weight on your back to get set up. One step, two step, set, martha focker.

Sick PR kid! Somehow you’re always 20-30lbs or so ahead of me.

Happy Bday and LWI!
