you should be close to be able to bust out some pull-ups!![/quote]
pfffft! I have done ONE this entire year and I was around 140LBS and it was maybe the hardest thing I have ever done in my entire life. (drama!)
I’m 147 right now and don’t think I could do another one. Lat pulldowns are A ZILLION times easier than pullups. I have decided pullups are inconsistent with my ass goals and am hapilly never going to do them.

Some people practice heavy walkouts to habituate their cns to heavier weights. After walking 200lbs, squating 150 fells easier. I’ve never done it, I’m more of a fan of pyramide workouts. If 150 feels heavy, squat 160 for a single and and drop back to 150 for a couple of reps after a good rest.[/quote]
Sank you lady… I keep this one in my back pocket!
Great suggestoin.

I have a suggestion on depth check. I don’t trust gym guys to accurately call depth unless they are on my team or my guy etc. Many of them are just so awestruck to see a woman squat they don’t know what to look at first and they also, often don’t know what real depth looks like.
I put a band in the rack and when my butt touched it, I know I hit depth. It isn’t like box squatting because you’re not stopping and the band allows a bit of give. It’s just a touch cue. This is a video of me over 2 1/2 years ago with horrible lean but you can see the band and what I’m talking about.

Hmm, maybe some walk outs would help me, come to think of it. My squat is pretty pathetic in the PW scheme of things but I’m working on it.[/quote]
You’re doing your best.
So yeah try the walkouts and I will try the walkouts and we can compare notes!

They can totally monitor your ass but it’s more for fun than function The weirdest one for me was several years ago I was squatting in full gear and this guy sat and watched the entire time; some intense slavic kind of guy. I got the feeling he was beating off in the men’s room afterwards over visions of knee wraps and squat suits. Hey, whatever blows your skirts up right?

Nice session girl. I know what you mean on the prone leg curls. Pain in the ass for sure.
I have noticed that different leg press machines offer more/less resistance. Im not sure, but I think its because the angle of the sled might be different between them. An increase/decrease in the angle will tangentially alter the force needed to push the same plate weight. Nomsayin?

Aw sanks… NOT MY SICKEST WORK EVAH… but not too shabby. I know what you mean about the angle… I’m inconsistent as fuck with that too I usually just leave the backrest as I find it. Still though I REALLY THINK one of those presses at Parkmoor has a 55LB sled and one has. 65. This is based on my completely scientific assessment (please read assessment as opinion)

I DOES! One by myy tanning place with crap dec plates and the way awesomer one with the huge old school weight room (grimy!) Thats hella less convenient. The old school one also has TWO leg presses and these are the ones I’m talking about I swears they are diff weights (also diff manufactuerers so legit opinion rite?)
Both are 24 Hour Fitness.
still considering zdding Gold’s.

Yeah, when hitting a snag in progression, ramping your way up to some heavy singles can really get you over that hump… to coin a phrase. The muskels may be there, but the neuro-muscular connection has to catch up.
I almost never find leg presses to be the same. Super legit call.
And…um…not sure what the HELL scj is talking about. You shank WHO you want, WHEN YOU WANT! (Um, side note, that would probably be a really good caption for your mean-muggin gym photos!

Yeah, I feel like that too. My current gym had 5 leg press machines, ALL different manufacturers, ALL feel different!
Ah fuck dood. That guy that interrupted your deads done fucked UP!
You are ready shank a mofucker
Brutes fired up and is probably about to overhead lunge him anywhere from 17-24 times.
I’m so mad I’ll prolly stop posting cellphone noodz of myself.
…you don’t fuck with the ladies of TNation and their workouts. Let this be a lesson.
(side note:scj will foolishly defend the guys right to not be shanked. We will let it slide)
