Fucking love the banded squats!
Thanks Matty.
Last night’s shoulder session.
A. Reverse Machine Flyes - 5 x bunch
B. MP - Worked up to 5/5/4 x 145
C. Seated DB Press - 4 x 8 x 70’s
D. Seated Laterals - 5 x 10
E. Machine OHP - bunch x bunch --little rest
Put the shoulder dislocates back into the routine. Need to start saving my shoulders before they need saving.
Don’t know how you animals MP so much f’n weight. I struggle. I’ll need to get some vids and get some pointers.
Food blitz FTW!

I feel your pain.
I feel your pain on the MP too-
I can only go higher on pushpress or things from the clean
guessing there is allot of leg drive there.
on my end
I liked that squat video- nice work
lol at tito ortiz!!!

you must keep posting the food orgy.
This post looks to satisfy Frenchie’s latest requests: food porn and me squatting in shorts/t-shirt.
Good weekend.
Felt pretty crappy Friday so took it off. Hit my couch as soon as I got home from work. Only moved when I went to bed. Woke up Saturday feeling better. Gradually felt better as the day went/consumed food. Felt pretty close to cured after hitting the gym (Arms). Visited a new friend Saturday night. She made me pumpkin protein bars. Yumm!! And she lifts.
Today was Leg Day.
A. Calf Raise - 6 x 10 + 10partials
B. Squats - 1RM Test
**Warm Ups
5 x bar/95/135
3 x 185/225/275
**Working sets - VIDS
3 x 315
1 x 365/385/405 --I’m still questioning depth
C. Seated Leg Curl - 4 sets 15/12/10/8
D. VMO Extensions - 4 x 15
E. Leg Press w/ 3 sec negative
10 x 6pps/7pps/8pps/9pps
2 x 6 x 10pps
F. SL DB’s - 3 x 12 x 90’s
E. Regular Extensions - 6 x 12 w/ 30 sec rest
Nearly puked at the end of this one.
Wish someone was around to spot on 425 but that can wait till next month.
pumpkin protein bars AND she lifts!? Sounds pretty good in my opinion 
no spotter? the kid doing the upright raises clearly could have had you on the 425…
Thank the Lord for Frenchie and the less clothing request. sigh.
Depth was right on man. Super solid effort.
Depth was good 3 WHITES!
winner, winner, chicken dinner…
nice squats ddot, depth looked good to me.
lula, yup. Makes healthy delicious food and lifts are two big checkmarks in my books. I think I’d be more afraid from the skinny upright row dude catching 425 if I had to dump cause he would probably try and grab the bar. LOL. It’d make good lolz though.
Matty/Git, thanks. I guess I feel like I COULD go lower but if you’re saying it’s good; I’ll go along with you.
Okay I’m going to sound like a dick here but in some feds those would have been high.
I don’t think you are going to compete right, if not then they were outstanding.
However if you are thinking of competing then IPF and USAPL judges might call those high.
Great work either way.
mmm I like your friend!
Set up IS looking solid (saw you mention it somewhere)!!
Anyone who makes a credible squat at 405 does not need advice. I’ll say you were there. Maybe a millimeter off, but who gives a s##t? That was a really, really good squat.
And I think Frenchie was asking for some actual skin.
Wrap your knees and you are good for 435…I bet.
Really good squats! Do you really need a spotter if you have the safety bars? I mean just dump it on those and you’ll be fine.
Training is coming along really well and it’s inspirational to see you kill it like this.

Joe, you bastard! (Yeah, I probably agree with you)
Up, yeah, I like her too. That vid Gold-1 posted is the shiznit. 3 steps. Solid, stop, drop and squat.
Mr. Bodybuilder, thanks, but I’ll always ask for advice. It does feel good to squat 4 plates though, ain’t gonna lie.
Git, you know, I bring my wraps with me EVERY time and I’ve yet to use them. I’m gonna cycle through some wave loading for the next 3 or 4 weeks and then hit 1RM again. Maybe I’ll test out the wraps.
James, I probably don’t need a spotter with the bars. Must be a mental thing with me. Training is still pretty solid. Getting loads of feedback in the gym about size. Holding small amounts of fat on lower abs and handles, but nothing that couldn’t be stripped in a month.
I’m in a good space.
Strong stuff in here.
I think it’s guys like you that prompted the “let’s have a separate 50 and over forum” threads.
Hella good squat. Depth looked good IMO. Solid effort as always ddot.
