That’s a weird thing I’ve noticed in your log, re: relatively weaker legs. Is there some reason why that is? All your upper body lifts are pretty damn strong.
Well,if you see, I do 3 types of deadlift (trap bar- once a week, dumbbell / bar RDL-once a week and some times sumo DL- may be on 10-15 days) and 2 type of squats- back squat - once and goblet squat- once. I do dumbbell squats and lunges but they aren’t heavy exercises. Hip trusts also once a week - last one on 05.09. Last week I was on a vacation and have no proper equipment to do my usual workouts.
I train full body 5 times a week and I can;t do back squats every day, sorry
The isolalation exercises are there but just to fill the time between sets.
I don’t know, just anatomy I train my legs as hard as possible.
Are you enjoying this? I’ve started watching it but am finding it’s not pulling me in. I’ll give it a bit more time.
Awesome pull ups. Neutral grip is much nicer.
Not bad, I gave it 9 in IMDB May be it’s too sentimental, but the actor’s game is on high level, the atmosphere, the story line are dark and desperate and I like it.
Oh, honey, I can do weighted pull ups- at least +10kg, I’m just lazy and don’t want to get tired
I’ll try and take a video next week may be.
It was kind of an inside joke cause I can’t do many pull-ups myself. Max is 6 reps BW neutral grip. Been getting advice from @guineapig and other members about it
That being said, I’m ashamed. Lol!

1-2 glasses of whiskey and some nuts in the office and so on. Not very busy day.
Happy birthday!!
Don’t give up yet brother. Strength at one movement is influenced by so many factors e.g. training history like how I got my start with lifting with bodyweight/bar movements, genetics like muscles insertions and height/bodyweight distribution like if you are tall and or lower body heavy there’s a bunch of mass that just weighs you down.
You don’t have to strap on an extra 50kg like myself (just yet). You just progress relative to yourself and there will be gains a plenty.
Hey Miss Cobra Just glanced through your log.
Let’s fix that squat.
The video you posted wasn’t that bad. You just need to practice it a bit more.
Have you tried different stances? like a bit wider. It looks like your knees travel nicely over you toes.
What I’ve just recently found very helpful with my squat is to do tempo squats with a 5050 tempo.
Strip all the weights and start out bar only.
5 seconds going down,directly into 5 seconds going up.
Focus: bar travelling directly up and down over midfoot. This is the most important thing.
Feet: weight should be mid foot as well, so 3 points heel and front footsoles? in and outside sole must all 3 stay in contact with the ground no lifting of the heel no standing on the inside or outside of the foot.
Lower back must be neutral and not overarched.
Bracing will come naturally, do not overthink this. (and not underthink it as well, deep breath engage the whole core, no need to over engage, yet).
If you do low bar squat break at the hip first, if it’s high bar break at knee and hip at the same time.
You can do it at every workout for a start. 3 sets of 5 with the bar only. On your back squat day do it on the warm up sets.
Now on every rep try to feel were your feet is, were the bar is travelling, is the weight shifting, if it is prevent it in the next rep.
Try this, next time we will look at mobility.
Oh btw I’m in for it. This is a great community for people who lift weights and work out.
Holy hell. That’s really impressive.

Very good workout. My glutes will burn tomorrow.
I started to take creatine monohydrate10 day ago. Last time I take it was 2014 may be. I just forget to take it! That’s the reason I don;t take even vitamins and minerals and omega 3 most time of the year, I simply forget. Now I swallow the dose with my coffee in the morning and it’s done. Unfortunatly the vitamins and others can’t be taken on empty stomach and I forget about them 3 of 7 days at least.
Today I wish just some cardio, but … I think going to the gym without picking up some weights is fucking worthless. So I do a micro workout only for arms and delts.

Why the hell Stephen Amell looks alike Ragnar Loghbrock more and more in seson 7 of Arrow?! : He was so handsome in the previos seasons …
Hey, I just saw your log! I can’t believe I just found it! You look amazing!
Have you tried a pillbox? There are really cute ones with labels for each day of the week ![]()
Hi! I’m right here.
I’m so happy I become a part of this nice community. I had a training log in a Bulgarian site for years but there was so much hate there so I couldn’t handle it any more and I quit. For better.
About the supplementation - I read some science articles and etc. last year that its not so harmless to take additionally antioxidants and vitamins and it’s not necessary if you eat a variety of foods.
I do have a pill box but I forget to open it.
So I take it “from time to time”, omega 3 and Mg mainly. But there’re weeks that I eat fish every day, so I don’t take omega 3 and forget the others.
