How did you get injured?[/quote]
Degenerative Achillies Tendonopathy, an overuse injury. Usually runners get it from running/stoping, football players get it from hitting other dudes at high speeds (absorption), and strongmen will get it from pulling events. I was none of these when I got it, so I have no idea.

Well the rate of tissue degeneration has genetic influence, so it could be congenital or possibly from when you were so heavy. Maybe a compounding of the two factors.[/quote]
Or the fact that I like to randomly sprint with no prior preparation, at top speed lol.
[/quote]
that too. impulsive behavior definitely lends itself to injury lol … I should know.[/quote]
lol. Well, hopefully I’ll be back training legs heavy again soon. I actually go back to deadlifting next Thursday, 145 with the axle bar so I can at least get SOMETHING out of it. Do a few sets of 20 reps, not to failure.

What’s your PR for squats?[/quote]
No idea, haven’t back squatted in months. I bet I could front squat 385 though.

Dips are weird. If your experience will be anything like mine, you’ll leave dips for a while and come back to them setting ridiculous PRs while being considerably heavier.
Sorry, haven’t updated this in a while.

Deadlifting:
Just did a million sets of Axle Deadlifts with 215 until my grip gave out.
12/16/11
Benching:
Got 305x5, and thought it was a max; then I attempted 340, and smashed it. Than 355. Than 365. I went to 380, and almost got it, but almost isn’t good enough. If I didn’t take so long, I could have had 385. Definitely gonna hit 405 in less than a week! Gonna have video when I do the 405.
Sorry I haven’t updated in a while. Since Sunday’s a Roman holiday (Saturnalia) masked as a phony religious holiday, I decided to deadlift today. Put 295 on the axle to do some stiff-legs. Did 56 for time, not that hard.
Miss 380 = 405 in less then a week. FML ? lol. Nice work
