That was a nice looking squat Joe. The 245 bench pressed out reall fast, too.
Nothing astounding, just that ability to generate power manifests in (among other things) speedy runners and a very quick drop off in speed of execution of lifts. If it is a weight you can overcome, it is a weight you can overcome quickly. So do you have a fine line between weights that go up quickly and weights that won’t go up at all? That 245 bench looked pretty quick, and the rep formula says your max is somewhere around 260.
Some nice person sent me this video when I first got my knee wraps.
btw. Do you want my knee wraps? I won’t see you until your meet but I can mail them to you. It’s not like I am going to use them now…
that 245 bench was nothing for you…it went nice!! And a nice squat there Joe…things continue to move up in these parts!!

Nice work Joe-
the strength and bar speed are there, just sit back a tiny bit.[/quote]
Thanks Kevin, I’ll give it a try. I have always had a mind/body disconect with the sitting back part.

Yes, that is absolutely true. Right now I could push 270-275 up and it would go up pretty fast. But 280 might not come more than an inch or so up off my chest.

Same problem…at a much lower weight 
Oh boy. Right again.
giterdone, are you also a good sprinter, or have a good vertical?

Hmmm…I think good would be stretching the truth but I’m definitely better at shorter distances than long.

Horrible quad DOMS?
No such thing, quad DOMS are the best DOMS you can have!!
Now, of course, I am wondering what caused the quad DOMS. The mind boggles with possibilities…
P.S. Nice dips. I can really appreciate the effort involved in that.
you didn’t eat your preworkout pie man!!
seriously we all have those. But nobody comes close to your dips. so even on a weak day you rock it.
Great work on the dips.
That’s a cool belt as well. Where’d you pick that one up? Can you get one online?

Yeah, I was just looking for 1-2 more reps because next week is +135 and I need at least 3 reps on it.
Also I am off work today waiting for the ADT guys so come get the alarm sensor so we can replace our door. Sp that means bum bum bum Frosty the Snowman recording and posting. I’m going to go into town and DL after they are done as well.
