Just getting caught up. Really solid work in here. I was really surprised that you didn’t nail that 315 front squat.
james
nice vids. Sorry about the knee.
Glad the knee thing is fixable. A few more years of training and I suspect you’ll be able to tell anyone how to fix any issue they’ve got. Possible side business?
Awesome on the training buddy. I’ve been lifting with my brother lately and it’s been nice.
James - thanks I think its possible and soon
DJS thank you
peaches du- It’s fixable I think.
I did want to do it for a living or something like it
I am a chiropractic - Applied Kinesiology dropout- instead I took a massage license
but now I make TV for a living go figure.
training with a buddy - even once or twice is good
I have been super swamped- but busy is good so I will try to catch up , with everyone
In my humble opinion, you are an athletic lifter (speed, baby!). On the 315, it looked to me like you were not trusting the stretch reflex that got you the easy 295.
tke’s. I should prolly start doing those again. well, if I ever get a cable set up in the lab. i could use bands from my squat stands i guess…
took cake boss’es money on Tuesday
building out a small studio today-
monday also worked a shit ass long gig.
yay money - boo hiss dehydration and not enough fooooooods

Notes-
first day of adding specific knee shit in.
good results - just trying to add some VMO stimulation
and I need more hams work and more calves work
I found the HS calf machine super hard to use bum ankle made it hard.
Pulling- wanted 405 x 5 not happening
pulls deficit- wow - these felt awesome got great leg drive
these where more stiff legged, and touch and go.
reverse lunges hit the spot
other shit - was other shit.
need to eat more.
thanks for reading my little novel.
Good luck with the VMO work.
TKE???
I got some knee stuff to…
What sort of weight do you use on the TKE?
I have similar knee issues and when I tried them they made it hurt more, maybe I went too heavy.
I’m surprised you have VMO issues because (like me) you don’t seem to cut things short or squat high or anything, they say ATG stuff is supposed to stimulate the VMO good. Obviously not.
Hope it sorts out soon. What with your bum neck, shoulders, ankles and now knees, you are running out of joints buddy! LOL
training is looking good, sorry about the knee
Just went back and caught up on your thread. So much good stuff goin on. Loved the vids and pictures.
Djs -thank you.
Min I am no knee guru- but this is what I am going to try.
I haz vids for you.
Harry that means allot thank you
PeteS thank you too.
farmerB I did a variety of the things you will see in the vidz
mostly the box step ups- and TKE on some leg extension machine I could use like the multi hip.
as for running out of joints - it is a touchy topic
My wife is always frustrated at ‘my love’ for
my sports - particularly when they left me kind of banged up.
how could I have loved all that time doing it
sometimes I feel like the tiniest saddest super jock
who didn’t get bling’ for christmas and only got stitches and tape.
that being said the ice, KT tape , pvc pipe and hundreds of advils I feast on
the hours of mobility- somehow that 15 seconds under the bar is glorious.
and shit what else would I do.
terminal knee extension
here is an old vid of Buddy Morriss an NFL S&C walking Dave Tate and Wendler through it.
vid is High lariousssss
this part shows more variations
and the best is Dave Tate crying on the foam roller
and last in a multi hip machine
Tate and Wendler- are fucking funny but really the S&C coach is handing out gold

Notes.
took forever to get warm , grip , hip and glute tightness a good sign
I am tired.
cleans - felt slow kept going til it felt ok.
presses- 175 - I think its been a long long time since I OH anything over 135 that wasn’t a push pres.
z-presses - I like these in 5’s . in fact I am liking 5’s allot.
pullups ditto on 5’s could do +25 for 8 or 10 but 5’s work.
curls- ripped off my shirt and used it like a du-ragg.
loaded pushups wanted 5 sets or more elbow said not happening.
meadows swings for delts are the shit- for people with jacked up shoulders
to put it in perspective I can not do lateral raises with 15’s
ouch.
thats it will catch up with all you people tonight and this weekend
I think my post got eaten?
sorry if it shows up later.
Now that you posted those videos I am familiar with the terminology. I have to do that tortuous stuff in PT. Apprarently my end range of motion sucks and I shake just like Mr. Tate doing that same move.
Funny, how you can be so strong and weak at the same time.
Stay safe up there!
Nice work bro, those Z presses have been a staple for you now.
Good work kevin.
Who you got Anderson or Okami?
Forrest or Shogun?
And why?

awwww!
nice to see you taking action on the hurtin stuff.
Those were great TKE videos. Thanks for posting them! Stay safe tomorrow.
MinM
Are you on posting probation ,I know you like to be naughty…
PT is a pain it is kind of funny to be able to ill oar squat somewhat respectably
Yet something Ike a bw bench for five would leave me crippled.
Matty z presses are uncomfortable but not as mush as other for me thanks bro hope you are safe too man
Fischer
Thanks man!!
I like okapi but in thick Silva is just too much learly superior in striking, and speed
Okapi could pull the upset by making it a wrestle brawl but , I see silva picking him apart.
I will take forresrt over Shogun only on shoguns health, injuries etc Forrest needs to grind it out
And avoid the ko
Frenchie awwww sniffl it’s true but why be bitter when I can still tear shit up
Have to take care of the banged up stuffs sadly there are lots of banged up stuffs
Kimba
I haz the google abilities!
Thanks I found them and thou gut they where good too, Tate n the foam roller
As for being safe. ,I went to work today t the us open it’s a ghost town
400,000 peeps evacuated for the first time in 125 years all of the NYC extensive transit is shut down
We have more track than pretty much anywhere in the world
All shut down.
Bridges tunnels all down.
Went to work for Austrailian Fox sports they just got off a plan and had no clue
What may or may not happen
Work till 12 then jumped on the last trains out before shutdown
Wife insisted we go to the weekend place
So we are safe and dry.
Stay safe people
