I'm a Loner Dottie...a Rebel.

Agree on the self massage…snicker. Seriously, I think you’ll find that it really helps. Does it hurt the entire time or does it feel better once it warms up?

Fantastic work and I’m really looking forward to following this. Have you ever read anything from Starr like “The Strongest Shall Survive”?

Delaod once every couple of years whether you need it or not.
Great lifting.
Love the tattoo.
“self massage therapy for the bicep tendinitis?” Play your pity cards right and get the wife to do it for you.

James - I havent Ill check it out tonight, Its throbbing now, when exercising its more of that shooting tendinitus pain, im talking about my bicep btw lol.

Harry - Thanks man, once every couple of years! thats more like it.


Finally I can get the 6-pack I always wanted…

^ HAHAH! Nice 12 pack, bro!

Awesome ink, Matty! Your artist did a good job. Portraits are tricky.

Sorry about that bicep trouble. I’d definitely need to see how you roll them out, lol! You’ll look like a bear rubbing against a tree.

And btw, that pic Canada put up there…DAMN!!! By far one of my faves. Looking thick!

nice work Homie.

and the ink is awesome

you can roll out biceps or triceps - with a lx ball
and yes to OD on fish oil

do you take any inflammation or joint supplements
I do - and they help need to re=up here

Sexah abs Matty, we should see if we can get a package deal if we order more than 1.

Gotta agree on the deload, when lifting heavy I have to take a break every month at most 6 weeks. Nothing good happens for me when I go longer.

Love the pup tat, looks really well done.

Why want a 6 pack when you can always have a keg??? :slight_smile:

Sorry Matty I’m so late congratulating you on the meet and your birthday. Better late then never, right?

Hey big man, happy belated birthday.

Sweet tat. Nice to always have your buddy with you.

Deloads are good. I say bail on the bb rows and find a more comfortable replacement.

Dude, I’m late on the meet and the birthday. Congrats on both brother.

Ha ha ha. That abhancer looks great.

It is a spoof right?

These days it’s getting harder and harder to tell.

Masch - Please keep that avi up for a while it is quite awesome. Unless Im rolling on my back its always an exercise in futility to foam roll other parts of my bahhhdy. Im such a spaz! Im very happy with the Tat, my other pooch is going on the other side and then I nice little flower on my lower back YAHTZEE!

dday - I ordered it within the first 20 minutes of seeing the commercial so I GET 2! Ill send you one, we are gonna look awesome this summer! Thanks about the new ink Im very happy with it.

Bulldog - Shit you wont get any disagreement from me there!

Ecogenx - Thanks man! No worries your too busy doing sets of 15 of my 1rep maxes!

Austin- Thanks brother I know you can appreciate the special bond you have with a special dog. Especially when their name is Reggie!

Flash - Thanks man both 2 great b-day gifts, I didnt get the numbers I wanted but its a long journey. I also got a signed basketball from my favorite Bball player of all time Steve Kerr.

Brett - Its for the “psuedo athlete.” lol

WEEK 2 OF 9 DAY 1 BILL STARR 5X5

SQUAT - 145/5 180/5 215/5 251/5 290/4,1
SS
DECLINE SITUPS - 10,10,10 +45/5

FLAT BENCH - 140/5 175/5 210/5 240/5 280/5
SS
DB ROW 80X3X15

CGBP - 225/10 185 W MONSTER MINI / 10

BB ROW (SUPINATED GRIP) - 135/5 150/5 175/5 210/5 235/5

TRI PD - STACK/20 +25/15,15 ROPE PD STACK/10 60/10

NG CHINS - 7,7, 25/5 45/3

Oddly enough the supinated grip rows hurt less then that of the pronated ilk, I would think I would be using more biceps with the supinated grip, Ill stick with these since they seem to cause less discomfort and will hit my lats more. Squatting is a total embarrassment couldnt get 290/5 only 4 Im alreadty stalling FACK!

nice work-

that 5x5 bill star stuff is cray

I know it works but I can never think of doing squat and bench on the same day
how did I miss the abinator

  • do you use it to shave the body hair?
    or to appyly sun screen
    I think you are on to something.

ps Maschy should keep that AVI

Matty question, finally got to see the video’s.

Are you still working with the PL group?

Have they said anything about the width of your feet placement for the squat?

Nah man, too much travelling and tolls, admittedly I kinda like training alone its kind of my “me” time lol.

Its funny you mention squat stance, too narrow right? A friend at the gym told me I should go wider and I have over the past few sessions I hope it will translate to a better squat.

Look at Dixie’s picture.

You have a BBers stance IMO, you dont use enough of that ghetto ass God gave you.

LOL your right, Im going to take some vids on Friday maybe you can check my stance. Overall pretty dissapointed in my numbers overall even though my gym PRs are higher just feel that I should be higher than they are, gotta get technique down pat but then again maybe Im thinking too much.
