Never Walk Alone

Nice work!
nice front squats- and I did see you do sneak in more weight on pendlays too.

I like how the trainer who walks by pretends not to peep your ass

WWHN is probably the funniest show I work on Turtle time indeed
I tell a secret- they want to go to three or more nights a week

stalk away.

Look at that fine azz woman up there ^^^, dayum girl, lookin’ GOOD ! :slight_smile: Pushin’ weight !

You are looking super sleek in that video! Where the hell did that cake baby go? Awesome mile time and pyramids for pullups are a great way to bump up the volume. I like them too.

Right now I’m getting pullup advice from a guy I met on line. It’s a little weird. He’s a friend of another on line friend–does that make it less weird or more weird? Ah fuck. Whatever. So, I’m not calling the shots with my pullups right now. I’m just doing what I’m told…

Super job an the AM & PM sessions. Pretty hard core, mama!

Nikki’s right. You are killing those Pendalys.

Weighted GHRs too… you’re a friggin’ animal Masch!

That mile time is incredible. Nice work!

yah i love his quick ass, ass glance lol!

and that you got interrupted by delicious chisme while doing pullups! the irresistablity of good gossip.

2lb pr is still a 2lb pr. Looking strong

masch, that guy on CA is Greg Everett. he is da shit.

so i’m just making up stuffs… so you should totally feel free to ignore this…

for my setup i try and set the bar over my midfoot and then squat all the way down (maintaining my lumbar arch as best i can - my ability varies depending on how warmed up i am). then basically squat myself up / rise up until my shoulders are vertically over the bar and the slack is out of my arms. i think that would mean that your hips would be a bit lower than they are in the vids. your lumbar arch would already be set tight from the squat.

it is a very uncomfortable position. especially for the legs / hamstrings. i do get why Oly Lifters tend to do this little duck into it then pull it quickly rather than just chilling out in the bottom position. very tempting to let the hips rise to take the stress off the legs.

i think this is in line with Pendlay’s ideas on the first pull position and different coaches have different ideas on that. Barbie seems to start with her hips higher (her torso not as vertical), for instance.

looking good, though. i’m still having trouble clearing my knees :-/

ooh… sorry the soccer thing started out not so fun. good on you for turning it into a good training session, though! i bet you are one scary competitor (in a good way).

cake baby is gone off to college! geez!

you look fab :)I don’t have form advice… but I’d like to tell that jacko who walked behind you mid pull to get the fuck out!

errr, spreading butt cheeks?? lol

you contemplate life a lot like Nadia does getting ready to pull…

Maybe that’s it?

You do crazy workouts, Mash! Progress is progress, anytime ou can move more it’s great.

Have a great deload week!

And you look fantastic in the video!

Looking fantastic Masch! And the two-a-days, most impressive!

Pendalays FTW!

you don’t need abz to be hawt, Maschy…you just ooooooooze hotness.

x 4 (or whatever it is by now) on the LULZ at the trainer pretending not to check out that perfectly sculpted booty :slight_smile: I wouldnt have even glanced… i would have walked and stared and probably tripped over a bench or something… so what?

How did you like splitting up your training into AM and PM sessions? I’ve done it a few times with cardio in one and weights in the other but never double lifties like that. Might have to check it

I’m thinking it wasn’t a quick ass glance. I’m thinking it was the second part of a long ass glance as he walked forward.

Damn it, now I’m thinking about a mile run challenge.


Hey errbody! Just a quick pop by to say hi and thank y’alls for reading my wayward log. You guys are so wonderful and supportive - makes me feel super special :slight_smile:

I’ll be back over the weekend with training updates - Tuesday I had soccer practice and yesterday I had to travel out of state - so nothing much to recount since Monday.

Anyways, this AM I tried on some of my summer clothes. UGH. The leg opening of my shorts can’t be pulled past my inner thighs! I mean, I can get get them on, but they are literally up my coochie crack and if i try to pull them down, they squeeze my inner thighs…How old is too old for poom poom shorts?

Also, Ive never rally looked at my calves before but thanks to Charlie I thought I’d have a look. YIKES! This is why I don’t train them…


Cocoa luvin’ - Thanks! I did go up on the Pendlays! Just a rittle…but form was breaking down and I didn’t want to cheat the lift :confused:

Frenchie - lol! you’re too cute - merci ma chere! And forget class, I like crass!

KMC - nah, that guy sees me all the time. He’s tired of looking at my ass!

Max!! Thank you!! :slight_smile: I’m no DebraD with my weights, but I’m chasing her fine ass - so look out biznatch!

LOL! Nadia, that’s hilarious about your FOeF (friend of an e-friend)! Now i don’t feel as pathetic when I talk about you guys IRL as “my friend” or “someone I know”. HAHAHA! And yes, I do talk about you people in RL…I’m talking all types of shit behind your e-backs!

Thanks Veg! I know you do the AM/PM sessions sometimes too - and you’re pretty hardcore :slight_smile: Honestly, the weighted GHRs aren’t THAT hard for me. Don’t get me wrong, they suck balls, but I don’t look like an epileptic dolphin (Ink!) when I do them…maybe I’m doing them wrong?

Hey 2busy! Thanks :slight_smile:

Andy - thanks! The stalking commences in 3…2…And thanks again for the setup tips in the Oly thread! You’re the best!

Lex, yeah, you’re setup is really good IMO, so I’ll definitely remember what you do and try to incorporate some of your setup in mine. I love watching your and Debs vids before I go Oly btw. Helps me keep my head straight. So thanks again!

Deja!! Hiya love. I’m glad you understand! lol.

Kalle - thanks for poppin’ in! I guess you’re right…but I want MOAR!

Hey Brutiful! Honestly, the cake baby is still kinda there. I just happen to be one of those people that looks better dressed, you know? Like me streamlined. Its getting smaller though! I’m trying to keep my eats in check - so far I’ve been eating good, clean, healthy foods, but I’m still eating a bit on the surplus side…baby steps.

MiM! Its true!! The “contemplating life” - its bad! I need to stop that b/c its such a waste of energy. I need someone to stand behind me with a riding crop or something and give me a swift switch to the ass to get me going. lol! That’ll teach me.

Thank you Matty! And honestly, the 2 sessions is really just because I work sooo slow, plus with the warm-up and stuff. I just didn’t have time to get the entire session done at once!

Sexy viking - thanks :slight_smile: Um…that “oozing”…yeah that’s just Nutella.

HAH! Greg, if you stared at my ass, that would be the utmost complement ever! The splitting of the training was totally fine. I have definitely double dipped in the past, but like you, its usually cardio or some other light stuff (yoga, pilates, light lifting with a friend, etc.), and honestly, in this case the afternoon session was pretty much just pullups and stuff, so nothing too serious. But yeah, I’m a big advocate of training how often you want and as intensely as you can - you gotta capitalize on those days when you feel strong! So if you want to hit it 2x a day sometimes, then go for it!

Joe - YAY!! maybe in the least you can run a mile and just see how fast you can do it! In fact, I challenge anyone to a mile run! Stake your bet - and if anyone can beat my next mile, I will graciously concede…who’s in?!

first of all… Pics or it didnt happen :slight_smile:

secondly, I also like to get my morning pilates in, otherwise I’m such a grouch lol

They don’t look so big from further away…

Ok, peeps - Be back soon!

Greg, you cray cray!

And by pilates you clearly mean standing in front of your mirror in your underwear doing Bruce Lee moves…please say yes, please say yes
