YESYESYES!! I am loving them right now cause I am getting them awesome n00b gains that I haven’t been able to get from anything else in a longggg, long time!!

K HEY PEEPS

Yesterday sucked cause I was a lazy blob of poo. It was my kid’s first day of grade 1 and he was crying a lot and stuff, ya.

UM TODAY was good though!

squats
115 x 5
135 x 5
145 x 3
155 x 3
165 x 1
170 x 1
170 x 1
170 x 1

All my 170’s were knee cavey so I kept doing singles until they weren’t ugly, but that never happened…
BUT, the good news is, all my sets leading up to the 170 were way less knee cavey than normal. That tells me that even doing knee cavey reps will build strength. HA! Take that OCD!!

oh um some more squatting
155 x 3
135 x 5
135 x 5

Front squatting
85 x 3
95 x 3
95 x 3

decline sit ups 5 x 10
facepulls 2 x 20
christian bale abs x 25

TONS O’ STUFF TODAY!
GOOD
I have to stay forever these days for a few reasons
A) I live far away from the gym and my daddy has to drive me so I have to do it on his schedule
B) MY kid is in school so day time means I have no life so I need to pass time
C) Um Cause I have lots of weaknesses to fix!!

Life news :

I have a 3-year-plan, please care.
NOW: Go to driving school/recert my first aid shit
2 MONTHS: Apply to work with the county at the gym front desk
2 MONTHS-NEXT SEPT: WOrk and be anal about money/practice driving so I can take test
End of next AUG: PAss driving text
Next sept: Go to grant macewan and take police studies for 2 years while my license is on the probation stupid thingie that alberta has.
next sept-2 years from then: Be in school/try not to annoy my parents/be a good mommy/good powerlifter
Graduate from school at the exact time my licence becomes offical and then apply with EPS.

SEE I AM NOT IRRATIONAL AND STUFF. I am planning ahead!

Sounds good, oui?
Maybe throw in meet powerlifting man who is good at making me laugh and fall in love/go on a vacation to universal studio’s together and go on the jurassic park ride… YAAAAAAAAA

K BEYBYEBEYEBEB

Well that sounds amazing! You should move to the states though; drivers licensing regulations sound too intense up there. Plus you wouldn’t have to live in an igloo anymore.

  1. Remember when I said you might be the one person who is weaker in quads than hammies? Good on you for front squatting.

  2. It seems like you do a crapload of near-failure squatting, maybe you are under-recovering (I will never say overtraining) and that’s why progress is slowing down?

Don’t make some immediate drastic change, just think about how your body feels and if it has merit. Might be wrong but who knows.

There you are :smiley:

I’d lost your log!! GO GET THOSE FRONTIES!!! They help your deads too, it’ll happen!! I promise you!

NIGHTMARE driving shit…that sounds like the strict baloney the UK makes you do. I flunked mine 3 times…inthe US however HA :{

tik tik tik…

BOOOOOOOOM!!

See, I don’t really know how close to my max it actually is because I could be lifting WAyYYyyyY more if my stupid knees would stop being STUPIDD. It feels light on my back, and it’s not slow goin’ up, I dunno? Maybe more volume at ligher weight on some days???

All the womenz are tiny cardio bunnies and weigh like 100 lbs.

Also, the chicks gossip a lot and all seem to know each other. I felt very out of place in the ladies washroom today.
All their outfits matches and their clothes were so tight and my arms were the size of their legs. AHHH it’s like JR HIGH where I was all weird N shit and my awesome barbie collection could no longer woo people to come over and play with me :S

Keep it up; I know you can get 135 soon :slight_smile:

“washroom” - you silly canadians.

I agree with STB about doing the bad girl machine, seems like you have weak abductors/adductors/whichever one is on the outside… and more squatting of course.

Have you ever played with your stance width at all?

Also have you ever posted a vid of you squatting from the front, or some angle where we can see your feet/knees/etc.? Might just be your stance (i.e. feet pointed out too far)

He’ll never take the mask off.

Nobody cared who he was until he put on the mask.

You mean you care to watch something other than my butt winkage?! Ohh, how thoughtful. I’ll see what I can do.

NOTES: THe forms for my meet are finally out. I am scared cause like, if I plan to do it then every time I have a single “off” rep (meaning a rep that wouldn’t pass in a meet) then I have panic attacks, ha-ha.
But at the same time it would be uber lame not to go into it…
I don’t wanna be berating myself for weeks on end though, that is mentally hard to deal with.
I am such a handful sometimes, gah.
