What exactly are you trying to say with this? It’s coming across as an insult to the current BOI, at least to me.[/quote]
It’s like we are at thanksgiving dinner and the TNation BOI is the kids table. OURS is the adult table. See what I’m saying?
I’m totally kidding, I don’t think he meant to place any emphasis on ACTUAL.[/quote]
Next Thanksgiving, be on your toes. Someone’s getting beaned with a bowl of mashed potatoes and I’m aiming for the biggest mofo at the table. lol[/quote]
False. YOU dont waste the Tots. You wanna throw something? Get them damn greenbeans off my table

TOTS or GTFO
Although I do find it quite strange that the majority of the original BOI members (which I was) cannot post in the current BOI section… hmmmmmmmmmm.[/quote]
I think it’d be tough to find every single person who posted in the original BOI over the years and put them in the new group. If anyone from the past BOI actually asks Hungry4more to include them, I’m surely he’d gladly do it. We’re not actively trying to keep seriously lifters out, just the faceless douchebag types that are posting in this thread.

I can dig it, I’m just jawing anyway.
Things change, I’m okay with that. It’s remarkable to think, though. Hearing about old timers and how they would actually encourage and support each other. Then you see threads like this that quite literally make me shake my head.
I can’t imagine ever being someone who ROOTS for others to fail.

More on topic though. Have any of you guys tried the rope movements for they did in the back video or that tri set on the cable station for chest? Both awesome and will be staples in my routine now.

Planning on it. Heading to the gym in a bit now to give their chest routine a try today. Back will have its turn tomorrow.

Yes, did chest/tri yesterday and added them after presses. Keepers.

Although the other BOI does have more developed people overall, MANY of us started on the BOI here, which, I believe it’s safe to say, is a large part of how we ended up where we are, and where we’re going with regard to strength training. I’m happy to be a part of both groups, and think that anyone who lives this lifestyle should be willing to take some time to pass on knowledge to the less experienced, as others did for them. Assuming those asking questions have good work ethic, intensity, etc.

I added them in for active rest today, I like them a lot. Heres a shocker… You don’t need to use that much weight on them! We may all be weak little sissies here in a few weeks. I think I used 50 pounds on the pulley station I had them on, same thing for Kayak Rows.
Obviously I can’t say they are helping in any way yet (Only done them once…) but they give a NICE peak contraction, and because of the way I have them planned in I don’t think they will take away any performance from my main overload day I do for back. More work = more muscle hopefully.

I also used those Kayak rows today as a finisher. Started with 70lbs found myself using 50 real quick. Its a keeper for now but I felt it a bit on my rotator.

What are these kayak rows? Is that the name given to one of the back movements with the rope?

The one with the EZ-attachment, where it looks like they’re paddling. First vid with Professor X I think.
