So your saying I really should have taken the 3 hour drive each way to belle River and back?

Diana, next time someone asks you a question during a set just tell them it’s a seat and the big metal things are just additional antenna’s for better cell phone reception.

Yeah I know. It gets awkward in boring work meetings. The truth is I’m a total goody two shoes. Or am I???

June 10, sqwatz

bar x 10
5x95
5x135x2 sets
3x155x4
1x185x4
then my left shoulder had enough. having a very hard time making depth with a wide stance, so I played with it alot tonight. i need to order some knee sleeves to keep them from cramping up and just get me a bit LOWER.
J made me drink that stuff in the picture. If you’ve ever had a blood glucose test, just imagine how that shit tastes, almost the same thing and the last drops were brutal (:

GMs 5x105x5

Some pull-ups because that’s what everyone does at my gym and my haitian brothers give you respect if you do them
5,5,4,4 full extension, long eccentric/concentric love that

Horz Row/Lat Pulldown
5x8
with 65 and 75lbs

Meant to do some abs but not much (I mean i meant to do more than that LOL)
15 dragonflys
10 leg raises in the roman chair not holding the handles, elbows only (sounds better that way but it is harder too, ok I’m just justifying not doing abs)

185 with wraps, not super tight. It’s hard to get a good camera angle and I have to play with that some.

155

some at 135

more on my channel but you get the general theme: missing or very close to missing depth. Gonna work on that.

thanks, i appreciate anything positive about squatting right now LOL.
my raw bench is 120, but i can do 150 in a shirt. 135 raw would be sweet.

You are strong, great work! I’m sure many of those women are very impressed with you and feel lost when they see how strong you are.

Hey Diana!

What issues are you having with your knees? So far squats and deads aren’t hurting mine, but it’s the single leg stuff that KILLS…it sucks!

Squats look good though! :slight_smile:

Diana the shorts look great :slight_smile: If you have the cash, I got Rehband knee sleeves and love them when I remember them.

I know what you mean about depth on the wider stance to some degree. I find it easier to hit depth because it’s more of a straight up and down motion but I have to do more warming up and mobility because the stance change uses more glute and hip and this morning my ass is screaming. It takes a while to warm up my butt and hips so that it isn’t hurting when I get to depth.

Are you checking out my ass again Julie?
Yes, it is straight up and down but I tend to lose my tightness right below parallel and stall a bit getting out of the hole. I don’t want more mobility/flexibity, I have a lot already and it just make it harder to stay tight. The weight will push me to the good depth, I just have to keep practicing.
I want some sleeves bad, think I may treat myself. Toasty knees sounds good, but I’ll wrap over 185, they are too weak otherwise and have always been that way.

Just the ones with hot squatters butts. The other ones keep them covered. It’s kind of like purdah for ass.

34

The squats looked great-- nice job on those.

o_s mentioned the rehband knee sleeves. I’m going to go ahead and whore for Inzer-- I love my knee sleeves. You can wear them loose, or really crank them down with the velcro to get some rebound. Very good support.

I like the sound of that and I know an Inzer dealer in Canada, so no DUTY, sounds like a plan…

can’t speak for the other 30 odd million in the country, but the gym is hot, they are comfortable, I’m too broke to buy any more gym clothes and most importantly, I could care less who sees my ass squatting. In fact, if it helps to show what that rack is really used for, all the better LOL.

I take offense to this! In my latest vids I’m in a squat suit, but in my earlier videos are my shorts not short enough to be booty shorts? I get hassled by my club for wearing short, tight shorts… I thought they would pass your standards…

38

So off to work again, arrgggg.
Just a random thought, I officially love sleeping alone. After 9 years of sleeping with a person who snores, suddenly I can sleep well again. I don’t feel like sleeping in the afternoon at around 2 pm anymore. Plus I get all the pillows.
OK, enough killing time avoiding going to work.

diana B not to hijack and certainly I can understand about not giving a fig for who sees what.

Court you have a fine sqautters ass. Fine enough to rest an energy drink off of, Let me replay the vids. Purely so I can learn how to improve my own squat.
I said it because you are usually wearing more modest shorts, even though there are quite revealing. I will go and replay the vids, but really its so I can learn and perfect my own squat.

June 12 Deadlifting

Everything was going great until 245, then J bugged me and I missed (hat never happens on 245) and things went downhill from there. Still a good session, i wanted to do some light squats but my legs and butt were too tired and missing 2 pulls at 245 took some energy out of me.

bridges, some stretching
DL
5x135x2 sets
5x155x1
2x185x2
2x205x2
2x225x1
245 miss twice, J was hell bent on telling me about his weekend plans and joking around and distracting me, late Friday night we all get a little stir crazy, I was going to punch him but it wouldn’t have made a difference and he’d just laugh at me anyways.

185, J is explaining to a guy that no, it’s not too heavy for me and it’s fine for the back.

205, Jonathan cut filming too fast

205 trying to re set and get my ass down for each rep

225

So since I was feeling a bit wiped, I forgot about any other big lifts and did:
Lunges, 8x5 with 15lbs DBs
Chest Supported Row/Flat Bench for speed
5x80lbsx5 for the row-because I want a HYUUUGGGEEE upper back LOL
5x65x10 for the bench
Dragonflags 10x5

You can see a big fat dude in a red shirt there in the background, he was telling me how he can DL 700lbs and was a power lifter LOL, I asked which fed and he told me the YMCA.
Even though I was not feeling up to par, it was still a good night, my legs are a bit tight today and I’ll head out for some active recovery on my bike and get some sun at the same time. We have photographers coming this morning to take the pro shots for our realtor’s web site, and we have had some traffic coming through the house in the past few days. I’ll do some apartment hunting on my bike ride, I have a good feeling this place will sell fast.

Oh yeah, and since my camera finally works, I uploaded all my vids from the Nationals too. Check out Julie’s mad video skillz on my last DL attempt LOL
