Am I confused with what Anderson squats are? Are they when you start at the complete bottom do basically squat from pins movement?

I have always read that those are harder yet you did 765, 180+ more than your 1rm, i must try these… The youtube vids of them look cool[/quote]

It’s closer to a half squat but definitely longer then just a “lockout” Above para anyway

And do them beltless too. Don’t be a pussy like Sam.

Or you could do a “lockout” or an “unrack” and CALL them anderson squats to build your street cred

LOL leaving the south tomorrow morning for the summer. I’ll see what I can do.

Vomit was probably hypoglycemia from the sugar in the drink. MODOK talks about how some people weren’t meant to handle fast-acting carbs preworkout.

I hate regular monster, always have the rehab tea and lemonade or the rehab protein monster.

There was no physical vomit. Just a shit ton of gas.

Yeah and it was on an empty stomach, so the only gradient was my stomach

Should be a session on Monday

Deadlift today

god you are such a tease

I haven’t even left yet lol

Deadlift
225x2
315x2
405x1
455x1 +straps
505x2
545x1
585x0 got it to a little below the knee

NOTES:

  1. Used straps today because I wanted to try something different. This is my first time pulling from the floor with straps. Affecting grip definitely altered my strength curve somewhat and I could fill in both my setup and each rep.
  2. I wasn’t strong enough today. Wasn’t feeling very explosive. I played around with my stance before 585. I should’ve stuck with business as usual.
  3. It felt like the weight was too far forward. It didn’t feel like I could do anymore to accommodate with my setup. I’ll get a video at some point for an objective assessment. Pulling rarely seems to feel right and feeling strong on them is an even greater rarity. I also feel like I’ve either not recovered enough or that I detrained.
  4. These were all beltless. I think I would’ve managed a lot more weight if I brought my belt though. More belted pulls for sure.

SLDLs
dead stop reps; double overhand
315x6
365x6 PR

NOTES:

  1. I’m going to emphasize progression on these as the movement lights up the same areas as my conventional pull plus it’s decent grip work when performed DOH.

Finally did some calf work
Calf Raises via Smith
1ppsx8
2ppsx8
3ppsx8
4ppsx8 default PR

NOTES:

  1. More calf work to come.
  2. Should help maintain joint health and maybe even assist my squat and deadlift.

Good Mornings from pins
135x8
225x2
315x2 default PR

NOTES:

  1. They feel like they could be pretty helpful.
  2. Had more in me but decided not to push it just yet.

Finally did some ab work
Standing Abs
used rope handle
worked up to 92.5% of the stack
2x10/10/10 (front/right/left)

NOTES:

  1. Cramped something fierce.

Hanging Leg Raises

SUMMATION:
Today was far from great, but it has set into motion some changes that I hope have an positive effect on my training. Summer training’s going to be a little rough but should render good progress. My deadlift definitely needs the most improvement out of the big 3. I’m thinking about implementing the weekly pull rotation approach of deadlifting every other week. I probably need more recovery time. Eating is looking to good, so that won’t be an issue. I’m thinking about straight Westside. Merely a thought though. Still figuring out strongman training. I definitely need more GPP and endurance work on that front.

Also I should mention that for at least three days a week I’ll be doing neck and arm work at home. If I can find my ab wheel, abs too.
