12 raw eggs, staying in the diet.[/quote]
raw eggs have like a 56% protien absorbtion rate. it goes up to 90+% when cooked. just letting u know.[/quote]
i appreciate this and you, but i am now a loyal follower of the great H$M aka hungry4more[/quote]
How do you and hungry go about taking in the eggs? Do you drink them all at once or is it spaced out?
i crack 12 eggs into a blender, add 10grams of leucine a little milk and some chocolate protein powder. blend and drink. not as hardcore as Hungry, I believe he just cracks the eggs and drinks them. He will correct me if i am wrong
oh and i drink them all at once and hungry says to do it for your post workout meal.
HAHA the loyalty to my method is getting almost disturbing once people try it for a little, and see the strength improvements.
FWIW, the white is more bioavailable when cooked, but the yolk is more bioavailable when it’s raw, and since the yolk has more nutrients/calories in it, I’ll stick with consuming them raw.
My method is to drink normal post-workout shake after training (about 50-55 grams protein, 50-55 grams carbs), then 1-1.5 hours later drink 12 raw eggs. I don’t add anything, but if y’all wanna add protein powder, leucine, whatever, it sure won’t hurt you. Keep the good shit up man, and let the PRs flow!
Any of you guys eat hard boiled eggs? I was thinking of boiling a dozen at night than taking them to school and snacking on them throughout the day. A tastier alternative to raw eggs methinks.
After having my grip issues sorted in the beginner forum, I pulled 150kg for one, and then the following week shot up to 160kg for two (about 350lbs). I know it’s not much compared to most in here, but considering I was stuck at 140kg for a month, that felt fucking good.
Was so light headed afterwards. Skinnier biceps curl guys were staring.
Had a great leg day yesterday, squatted 120kg for 5 which is my PB. Gonna aim for 130 for three next time. I like being a beginner; my PB goes up every week!
Also, my personal goal for the gym I’m at; press the whole leg press stack with each leg; it’s only 180kg, and I’m on 130kg at the moment.
Still need to work on form, looks more like a SLDL almost. I’m kind of tall, do any other tall guys have trouble with squatting and deadlifting.

Nice job on the pr. a lot of guys around here will tell you to start pulling sumo. pulling sumo allows you to put your back in a better position ie not rounded as much. I prefer pulling this way, and quite a few guys say their sumo DL is a lot stronger com[ared to their conventional.
if you’re stuck on pulling conventional work on lowering your hips more, the higher your hips are at the begining of the pull the more you’re going to SLDL.

Thanks xB!
This is a problem I’ve been trying to work on, kind of sucks being tall lol. I feel like my ass is down but when I check out the videos it does look like a SLDL like you said. My numbers are still going up though. As long as my form isn’t bad to where I can injure myself (like I see a lot of the guys in my gym doing) I’m pleased. I have a lot of work to do though, only been DLing for a few months so hopefully I can really nail it soon.

I broke one of the 110lbers at my gym. One of the ends was feeling wobbly (sp?) for a while. I was using them for incline DB press. I kinda King Coleman’d them off me and the head snapped. I racked the DB back and set it in a way to give the illusion the DB was still in one piece. Iron Grip my cock bitches.

The original position of your hips were not terrible in my opinion. The main problem was that when you began your pull your hips jumped up quickly while your shoulders did not rise. But all the advice here has been spot on. Just try and drive your heels through the floor. I almost like to rock forward right before I pull just to generate a little momentum when I rock backward (which gets my shoulders behind the bar). This allows me to focus on pulling backward as well as up. Whenever I am only thinking about pulling up I straight leg it just like you do.
Also, don’t jump on sumo bandwagon I know peer pressure is a bitch, but resist. I actually just moved my stance in and the weights have been moving easier for me.

Hey they’re your eggs. Do what you want.
From a calorie consumption point of view its a pretty awesome strategy, because its a whole lot easier to drink a dozen raw than eat a dozen scrambled.
This is a problem I’ve been trying to work…talks about some sort of sexual dysfunction

Sorry to all you cool kids who lift sumo :)[/quote]
I’m with AJ. I’ve done it, it felt retarded, and I went back to conventional. I know H$M is a cute and sexy little man of muscle and a freak of nature we all have come to hate and love but that setup doesn’t work for me. Sure, it should work better for a tall trainer and sure H$M’s true source of power is creatine and pulls numbers that make us all look like girls but THAT setup sucks my ass and tickles my balls. Like AJ, I changed my foot placement a bit and shit started moving. Until fucking Dirty_Gerdy told me to throw 6 plates (585 for those in special ed courses) on and I finally failed to lock in. The Sesame Street take home message kids is…figure out what fucking works for you. No matter what some cute, raw egg drinking, Portuguese midget (<3) says or does.
ashylarryku, the point we are all trying to make is that you should find what techniques and lifts best suit you. Just keep on practicing and working hard, you will get to where you want to be…as long as you drink eggs.
