Damn, the way that broke from the floor I was sure you had it, great stuff in here…[/quote]
Yea anyone who watches me pull a max attempt in the gym always thinks “Oh yeah he’s got that easy look how fast it’s moving off the floor; oh wait what happened? Did he hit an invisible brick wall or something?”
Thanks for the support though haha

Damn man! You definitely didn’t miss that lift due to lack of effort haha.[/quote]
Nope, just good ol’ fashioned lack of strength lol.
Teach me to get shit off the floor like that if I can break 3’in I can get it. And normally if I can get one I can get a second Becuase my set up is shit
Paused Bench:
45 10x
95 10x
135 5x
185 5x
225 5x
275 1x
295 1x
315 1x again, simply making sure I have my form ingrained
295 2x
295 2x
295 2x
Incline Bench:
strip sets starting with six 10lb plates on each side (165) and removing 20lbs each time
10-10-10-2-3-8-10 LOL I thought I was in good shape at first, but when the triceps fail, they fail hard
5-5-10-10-10-10-25
Seated DB Overhead Press:
70’s 10x
70’s 10x
70’s 10x
Band Hamstring Curls:
4 sets of 10 lol, these are dumb, I must not have been doing them right
Ring Dips:
3 sets of 10
1 set of 20
another set of 10
Lol, okay ring dips aren’t as hard as I thought. There is a huge difference between doing them at the end of a workout where I’ve done like 20 different exercises to failure already and doing them fresh.
So I woke up this morning with a lower back injury. The same one in the lower left side of my back that I’ve dealt with for the last 8 years. I knew it would never truly heal, although as my mobility improves its outbursts become vastly less frequent and less serious. It happened yesterday on the damn leg press. I did a few unilateral reps and went a bit too low with my left. I could kinda feel it at the time, but I thought it’d be nothing. Sometimes it takes a little while for my body to register the injury or something lol. I know how to deal with it by now. Some hamstring and hip flexor stretching, and I’ll be fine in a few days.
Anyway what do you think I’d do given that I have a lower back injury? If you said max out on beltless deficit deadlifts, you’re right!
Lower back is feeling much better already. Should be back to 100% by the end of the week if I stay on top of my mobility. I had a PT guy explain it to me once. Everyone knows about pelvic tilt, but what some people don’t know is that in addition to your whole pelvis being tilted forward or back, each side of your pelvis can actually tilt independently of the other resulting in a unilateral imbalance. This is what happens to me, and the only real solution is to make sure everything in the surrounding area is well mobilized and balanced so that both sides of the pelvis will be properly aligned.
How goes the pressing heavy shit over the head, and squatting/deadlifting shit? Still gonna try to race me to the 1.5bwX6 on the over head press? I pressed 155X8 so I am still giving you a challenge. I also finished coan/phillipi a little while back and pulled 425, and just this night squatted 370.

How is the back feeling man?[/quote]
Nearly 100% already. It’s encouraging to know I can get it back into place in like no time now. It used to put me out for like months, but my mobility has gotten so much better.

Amazingly beautiful deadlift technique. Great to see you took my previous advice. Onwards![/quote]
Hey I’m gonna do it tomorrow man lol. I just wanted to see if I could get 550 no holds barred.
Beltless Deficit Deadlifts: (3 or 4 inch deficit?)
135 5x
225 5x
315 5x
405 Did a sort of strip set here with 405. 8 total reps starting on a 5 mat deficit, next rep on a 4 mat deficit, then 3, then 2, then 1, then from the floor, then off 2" blocks, then off 4" blocks.
Beltless Deadlifts:
405 3x video; I’m trying to work on form. This is probably still too heavy to use for that purpose, but I feel weird using less than 4 plates.
405 3x
405 3x
Beltless 4" Block Pulls:
405 5x
405 1x
405 1x
405 1x Tried to use the best form I possibly could just for single reps
Here’s me trying to work on my deadlift form…[/quote]
Forget my earlier advice. I think it best if you starting using ridiculous amounts of AAS tomorrow, never come off for the next 10 years, get to a bw of around Big Z, just keep muscling those deadlifts from the floor with atrocious form, and become the next American Strongman sensation.

Fits your mentality better - fuaak form![/quote]
Lol, well I’ll keep working at it dude. What are you deadlifting these days btw? You’re like 50lbs heavier than me, but have you pulled 600 yet?
