I always bruise my collarbone for some reason ^^ my knees dont like them too much either (this is probably due to bad form though. maybe I should upload a video one of these days) | ||

Press : Intermediate Squat : Intermediate>Advanced Deadlift : Intermediate>Advanced Bench : Novice>Intermediate you can tell I don't like benching 8) I prefer these strength standards btw exrx.net is probably one of the best weightlifting sites around http://www.exrx.net/Testing/WeightLifting/StrengthStandards.html edit; i think the standards are the same actually but the layout is much better and intuitive | ||

Most of my values seems to be like in between each of these, so yeah, I'm happy. I'd love to be more consistent too .So yes, I rule no? :D edit: btw, no bitching about the front squat, it's awesome, and I'm already lifting 92kg on Front Squat. Has helped and done wonders for my Back Squat too .edit2: I'm going lifting today! yay! super excited! :D | ||

Bench Press: Intermediate Deadlift: Advanced (hopefully I reach Elite by the end of the year ^^) Press: Intermediate (got a whole lot better push press though...) Squat: Intermediate -> Advanced (will pass into advanced in septemer) more thoughts: very probable that I do a full meet in november and aiming on 200-115-240. Time will tell if that will happen :D | ||

Lets see this shit right hurr BW this morning: 176/178 (bad eyesight, bite me fools) Squats 205 lbs x 5-5-5 FUCK YEAH! Leg Press 210 lbs x 10-10-10 OH YEAH! Laying Leg Curls 100 x 15-15-15 OH SHIT YEAH! Seated Alt Curls 45 x Fail DAMN!! Seated EZ Bar Curls 45 x 5-5-5 Static DB Holds 85 x ~30 sec-25 sec-30 sec Seated EZ Bar Curls 35 x 10-10 --- Lol. Ball of energy with 6 hours of sleep. Woke up at 7 am and said screw it and went to lift. Felt like I could have gotten 210 on squat and more on pretty much everything, but I kept it progressing nicely instead. Think my wrist is really holding me back when I do the seated curls, so I'll just switch over to EZ bar curls. On a somewhat serious note, I think something may actually be wrong with my wrist. And after 8 months, I feel like I finally have my squat form down really well :D Bout time! Enjoyed those static holds and I might throw them in for awhile maybe. I can already feel that grip getting better (and found out my dominate hand has the weaker grip). Oh and I held this workout off until today instead of tuesday because I honestly got piss poor food on monday (Read: none food in the house) so I just did it today. Hopefully it doesn't hinder Friday's workout too much. | ||

Pretty humbling, my front squat overtook my back squat. If my back doesnt start hurting again i will start alternating back and front squat. Probably have to take out deadlifting though. No need to, just start off easy. I do, Front squats (they went from "light front squatting" to "heavy front squatting"). I'm recovering well every workout day, sleeping semi-good now, and trying to eat well and get milk when I can. My Front Squat helped tremendously my back squat, my quadriceps are a whole lot more explosive and stronger now, and that has helped almost all my lifts. Deadlifts are just insanely good, I love the feeling you get in your legs, when you're done doing a heavy heavy set of DL's. If I get to do DL's today, I'll go for 140. If I can't do 140kgx5 then I'll try x1, then 142kgx1 and go until I can't no more!: GO 1RM! :D | ||

I'm already crashing haha. hehe yeah not getting enough sleep doesnt affect the first workout most of the time (I have had some amazing workouts while low on sleeps). it will however start to drain you in the next couple of days if you dont start sleeping more! gl funkie. just the other day I saw a guy doing a 200kgx1 deadlift in my gym at bodyweight 77kg. so that should be your goal! | ||

possible injury/health question: last monday after I finishes a set of squats I suddenly felt a sharp and pulsing pain in the back of my head, but on the inside (headache). felt like an arterie was too narrow for all the blood that was pumping through it. was quite painful but subsided after a few minutes. today it appeared again after I was benching... what could it be? aneurysm? am I gonna die? getting quite worried because I never had that before and its already happened twice now | ||

First time I got it was during my last rep of a set of dips, and it kept coming back everytime I did a heavy set. I eventually got rid of it by using slightly lighter weights for a few weeks while working on my breathing, which seems to be the normal cause of this. | ||
