Hey Bre,

How are your glutes feeling? You have been killing the activation work, you should see some effects soon. Any more cramping? What about your stability?

Keep kicking ass - this is a good log.[/quote]

Um, yeah, I’m keeping the glutes sore, mindhumping T-NA’s Beast on the regular, and so the stability/strength of right glute seems to be improving. No cramping. Geez I totally forgot that I was having cramping issues! I havent had the guts to deadlift yet, but I reaaaaaally want to. I miss it sooo much. Stil just working on squat form strengthening my weaknesses. I should be working on my flexibility too. GRRRR. Thanks for asking, I hope you are well! [/quote]

Sky/mind hump vs. kettlebell swing hip action… find out who wins in 42 days and a wakeup!![/quote]

You should go see a doctor about that vomit issue. Could be serious.

Hehe.

508

I just thought about this…if you are not feeling any pain, and your foot’s all healed up…why aren’t you getting under the bar? And with the deads, just start out light. Don’t let fear keep you from progressing.

THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO CONTRIBUTED TO MY RIGHT ASS DEVELOPMENT. Especially I’m_New_Feed_Me

This workout is the progress of many months of body weight glut circuits. I’m pretty much 100%. Just need to get comf with form and keep at it, and I will soon be able to see what my max squat is. YAY. THANKS.

I started out this workout V. ANGRY. Ended V. good mood.

abridged glut circuits V. fast (x 2):
quad stretch x 10 x leg
skyhump x 20 x 1
one legged sky hump x 10 x 2
fire hydrant x 20 x 1
1/2 geom. x 1
jump squats x 10 x 1

in kilos
split squat x bar x 10 x leg x 1
split squat x 22,5 x 10 x leg x 1
split squat x 32,5 x 6 x leg x 1
reg squat x 32,5 x 6 x 6
reg squat x 42,5 x 6 x 3
reg squat x 52,5 x 3 x 6 - why do I lose feeling in my right arm hear?
req squat x 62,5 x 2 x 4 - 137lbs isnt my max, but it required grunting.
reg squat x 52,5 x 4 x 3
reg squat x 32,5 x 8 x 2 – these felt so good. But I was interrupted by the husband of a friend of mine who wanted to chat about life, so since I was in a good mood at that point, I just decided to call it and talk to the fucker. I got cold so I went to stretch instead of continue down in PROPER pyramid form - you know who you are!!

Back extensions (targets lower back hams, glutes)
BW x 10 x 1
5kg with extended arms over my head x 10 x 1
10kg on my chest x 10 x 1
20kg on my chest x 10 x 1
BW x 20 x 1

Seated Row
20 x 10 x 1
30 x 10 x 1
40 x 10 x 1
50 x 10 x 1
50 x 8 x 1
40 x 10 x 1

300 sit ups
1 bridges
one minute headstand
stretch

Theres a “kickboxing” class on Fridays at 20:00. Im kind of retarded when it comes to group classes (not good at mirroring mirror images), but I might have to give it a try…

Anyone have problems getting dizzy while squatting? If I take too deep of breath, I get a bit stuck at the bottom, and faint, but if I dont breath enough, then I lack power. Any tips on breath control?

Also I weighed myself on a scale that a guy said was making people 4-5kg bigger, but I dont know. I could be 70kg (154). That would mean I gained 13 pounds of mass over the past 8 months. That would be kind of awesome, but I have no idea of the accuracy of the weighing instrument.

This is awesome, woman! Way to get after it. And I’m ignoring the pyramid bit. Hater. :wink:

I think you’ll enjoy the kickboxing class. It’s not a formal training session, but fun, nonetheless.

As for the breathing, I inhale going down, and exhale going up. Are you holding your breath? Your right arm gets hinky probably because of the bar placement or your hand placement. Play around with it and make sure you loosen up a bit.

The scale…one way to figure it out is setting it to zero. If it stays in the “up” position, then slide the weight over til it is centered. That is the difference in weight.

514

Jesus fucking Christ, that’s a lot of volume, woman.

515

So happy to hear that you have found gluteal balance.

I second the idea that you will like kickboxing, not to mention that it is much safer than kicking poles :wink:

Hello Chest

Bench
bar x 20 x 3
22,5 x 8 x 3
32,5 x 5 x 3
37,5 x 3 x 3
32,5 x 5 x 2
27,5 x 10 x 2 - wide grip felt nice
22,5 x 10 x 2
bar x 20 x 2

Jentz scooted me down the bench a bit. I was too far up. But I guess that’s because I have a hard time getting the bar down unless I start high. But then if I move down after locking the bar out, it fucks up my position. I guess this is just a two person job. Anyone else have good techniques for locking the bar out? It’s no problem for me under 30kg, but over 30kg, I struggle.

Shrugs
bar x 20 x 1
22,5 x 20 x 1
32,5 x 20 x 1
42,5 x 13 x 1
52,5 x 11 x 2
42,5 x 15 x 1
37,5 x 20 x 1
32,5 x 20 x 2
bar x 30 x 1

tricep pull downs
5kg x 20 x 1
7,5 x 12 x 1
10 x 10 x 1
12,5 x 10 x 1 … and my body was like…fuck you, stop.

350 situps.
some yoga and a headstand.
My ass hurts.

Hi. Decided to check out your log because, hey, why not? Awesome stuff! Glad your right ass cheek is up to snuff with your left one. I didn’t know they could get unbalanced.

I don’t get dizzy squatting but my hands get tingly the heavier I go (only been up to 135 sadly). I should probably figure out why. IH thinks the bar rests on a pinched nerve which makes my left fingers go numb when I sleep or keep my left arm bent for a long period of time (like reading a book).

stop by anytime :slight_smile: … Ive decied I need to make my traps bigger (with things like shrugs) so the bar has something more to rest on. Dont be sad about your squat weight. It’s taken me almost 6 months of right ass re-hab to get back to 137. Be DO be mad at See Bear for squatting over 300 and making the rest of us look like pussies :slight_smile:

Bre - Humm…No help on your bench lock out problem. Right now I have to have my husband tell me that I’ve got it in the right place for the first rep, to prevent me from being too close to my neck. I do find a spot on the ceiling and stare at that while I’m benching and then the bar will go there every time. I got this trick from reading Starting Strength.

BTW it’s 4 am here and I’m reading your log because I’ve been sleeping most of the time for three days, hopped up on painkillers, and now have my sleep cycle all out of whack.

Grneyes and Bre - you are making me feel better about my slow squat progress. I think squating is going to be my nemesis.

No. Not your nemesis. Squats give women nice asses. It is a friend to women. Love the squat. We men love it when you do.
