Great job on your meet, are those all high bar squats today? If so it looks like you’ll be matching your low bar numbers soon.[/quote]

HElloooooo,welcome, and thank you!

And yes I should mention, ALL My squats will be high bar from now on.

It’s weird though, I am only about 20lbs away from my low bar, but I could not even come close to repping what I could before.
I could do like 150 x’s 10 low bar. Now I am just pushing out 140 x’s 2.

I think it will feel more natural soon enough though 1 :slight_smile:

Really? Even if I take like an hour and there’s only one squat rack? I thought I was being a bitch, ha-ha.

Good workout toady. Did not feel lazy!

Umm life news:
OMGOMGOMGO!!
I had a dream that the red hot chili peppers were going to stay at MY (parents) house the night before their concert because they had no where else to stay :O! :smiley:
ANd they were here, but i went to the gym!!!1 AND my mom had to stay to home and play hostess!!!

AND ANTHONY KIEDIS asked where I was!! ANd my mom told him I was at the gym, so in his head he pictured me being hot HAHAHHA.
It was SOOOO REAL. sigh

I wonder if it’s like my sub concious telling me I was fucking stupid for turning down sex to get enough sleep for squatting.
YOU FOOL.

I would NOT have done that to anthony though <3<3<3<3<3
Ya.

I forget what else I was going to say, fuck that is annoying.

Oh well.

If you’re gonna call out the lurkers make sure you have tanks and a science vessel.

When’s the date???

Science vessels are expensive though, and with EMP being much less useful against the 100% biological race their cost effectiveness is crap. Making sure you have enough energy for a well placed scanner sweep or two in an emergency does wonders.

I love this log.

Very true, but remember it is important to keep an eye on the Zerg’s main base and with your mobility decreased by the lurker contain you will need the scans for it meaning you gotta have that science vessel for detection of burrowed lurkers!

Giving Spock the gift of nerdiness in a powerlifting log :slight_smile: what could be better?

The point isn’t EMP, though. The point is well placed Irradiate on lurkers and ultras. Good luck avoiding those scourges though!

SILENCE YOU FOOLS! You may or may not be creating an intimidating environment for my lurking friends!

Let us talk of ‘normal’, every day things so they feel at ease including themselves in the conversation.

The weather outside is chilly, and I am all done my christmas shopping.

I think when I get to 180 Squat I will allow myself to use my belt again, I dunno, maybe 185…? Have not decided.

I captialized the word Squat because it is the name of a king, HAHAHA. Oh man…

OH RE: my date!
I don’t know the date of the date, is that bad? He still texts me randomly to say hey, etc, so that is good.

Are we supposed to kiss on a date? I am not big into kissing really, is that bad?

I remember one time my aunt told my mom “You know, I don’t like kissing, but I really like fucking.” I feel the EXACT same way.
Kissing seems like a waste of time/also gross because of saliva. Icky.

I think kissing is nasty, but oral is not. That doesn’t make sense?
EWEWEWEWWWWWWWWWWWWWIE

Maybe at the beginning I could mention that or something?

Uhg. I SHOULD HAVE NEVER LEFT MY BUBBLE !!! :=>

BYE

Sometimes you kiss on a first date, sometimes not, it should be on the dude to figure that one out (or at least I always considered it that way when I went on first dates).

It’s weird he asked you on a date but hasn’t tried to set a day for it yet. Feel free to tease him about wanting to set up a time.

I don’t know how you do heavy squats without a belt. It’s a lot harder to properly engage your abs without something to push them into (despite all the trainers who will want to tell you that you don’t use your abs when you have a belt on… in reality it’s the other way around).

Next time he texts ask him when the date of the date is. If he says he’s not sure tell him you are free on “insert day here”
Remember…WWDTD?

Lurkers can’t contain wraiths. Besides, if you use the scans properly to anticipate lurker production and keep it in check, there won’t be enough of them to require science vessels.

Maybe I was never using it right, but I never found irradiate very useful against any larger units. And the insane cost effectiveness of scourge essentially nullifies any heavy air unit tactics. Is the splash damage of irradiate even large enough to hit anything besides an ultra, I can’t remember?

I’ve never used a belt on heavy squats. To be fair, I’m an o-lifter and do high bar oly style squats, and based on lifters I know I’m the weird one for not wearing a belt, but it is what it is.

[/quote]

You irradiate the ultras outside of battle because it almost kills them. Another 1-2 tank shots or a nice focus with a bioball should bring it down immediately. In actual battles you only irradiate lurkers and defilers, as irradiating an ultra in battle makes it kill your own units (the splash from irradiate hurts you too), unless you’re good enough at micro to move your marines away. And if he isn’t good enough to be patrolling with scourge, you can move in 4-5 science vessels, irradiate 4-5 ultras, and you just cost him over 1000 minerals or something.

You can also irradiate some scourge if the other player has them clumped up. Also, ya, scourge nullify other heavy air units, but the only time you get anything other than science vessels is when you go BCs in TvT.

If you’ve never tried it how do you know you won’t like it? Pushing your belly into a belt forcefully helps tremendously with form (particularly balance, proper weight distribution and keeping your chest up)

BRO’S!!!

GoooooooooOoOoOOod day!

So yesterday I got anxiety because I squatted fast. I mean down and up I did it speeeeeedy cause the clanking of weights is like music to my ears…
Then I read a thread and people were telling this guy to slow his descent and stuff, so I felt like I did it wrong.
If I can do it fast, why can’t doing it fast be good/fine?
Opinions…?

I started thinking about my kissing related icky-ness and I realize that if it were anthony kiedis I would probably be happy making out with him for like 6 hours and his saliva would be like sweet nectar from the gods.
Maybe I am not sexually attracted enough to this person???
This makes sense to me.
Or maybe I am just madly in love with Anthony Kiedis and my usual hang ups just magically disappear.

N E WAY
I suppose it’s all mute anyway.
Or is it moot.
It’s a moot point.
mote

BYE

SPOCK!!! Your lifts are fantastic!! Check out those fronties and the paused benching!

Kissing is probably more romantic then other things, so if you wanted more romance then you go make out for months and months and write love letter to each other and stuff. If you don’t wanna don’t do it!
