If you can do this with your head touching the bench, great, but keeping it half an inch in the air is acceptable too. I've had neck pain in the past from pushing my head into the bench, but no pain so far when keeping it in the air a bit. Seems like one of those "do what works best for you" situations. Hmm, the more you know (or less you forget...). | ||

Dips: BW 2-2-3-2-0 Deadlift: 200kg x 5;170x 3-3-3 Finally after 4 weeks a good Deadlift workout again. During the last 6 weeks I haven't come closer to the desired 250kg, but in the same time I have lost 9kg BW, so I guess I should be satisfied. And after like 6 years I can do bodyweight-Dips again (at 142kg BW). Fat gymnasts ftw  | ||

Then LiquidMeat showed me Leangains and I read some pages on Starting Strength and decided to give it a try. My first session took place yesterday, it went like this: I'm 178cm and 75kg Squat: 1x5 60kg, 2x5 70kg Bench press: 1x5 70kg, 2x5 72kg Assisted Chin-ups (Smith Machine): 10R, 8R, 7R, all of them to failure. I left the place exhausted and my arms, especially forearms, were bulked up and heavy. My legs hurt a bit too. I came close to failure in the final sets of Squat and Bench Press, so I think that's what I can handle for now, although I'll obviously slowly increase the weight. BTW, I'm not far from what I'm looking for. I don't intend to get super ripped (like some of the clients of the leangains guy). So my question is, what should I do with my training to maintain my gains after I hit my goal? Stop increasing weight to the exercises? Keep increasing weight, but slowly? Change exercises? | ||

If you're doing Starting Strength, you want to start low at about 60% of max intensity and make linear gains every workout until you no longer can. After that you need to start programming your workouts because your recovery period will be longer than the interval between workouts. This period is done by weekly increases, instead of from workout to workout. There are a bunch of program in the Starting Strength wiki, or you can get Practical Programming by Rippetoe. | ||

Lately, all my sessions in the gym have felt amazing and i'm pretty sure i'm eating well enough but i usually only get about 6-7hours sleep every night which sucks. It somehow feels like i'm wasting precious free time by going to bed earlier so i more or less force myself to stay up, even if i'm not doing anything! so stupid. Hopefully i can start getting some decent sleep again because other than that i think i'm doing pretty good with my diet and workout. | ||

Well, if you don't want to get a lot bigger, after you hit your goal you could eat less. You won't progress as fast on your load increase and shouldn't gain a lot of weight. | ||

Bench: 92,5kgx3 , 97,5kgx3, 102.5kgx3, 107.5kgx1 Apparently my uni gym got the shittiest bar the could cause it was bent with 150kg on the rack, and even more on my back according to my friend. Gives me a new goal for next year: Ruin them deadlifting so they have to purchase replacements from me  | ||

Gives me a new goal for next year: Ruin them deadlifting so they have to purchase replacements from me There's one good Oly bar at my Uni gym, and that's on the oly platform. The guys who actually clean and snatch try our best to make sure it never leaves - and if it does, it doesn't go further than the squat racks in front of the platform. Other than that, we have a half dozen old oly bars that are bent as hell (seriously, I've seen maybe two people capable of squatting or deadlifting enough weight to bend a bar, in three years here. How does this happen?) and a dozen of those thicker, shorter 55 lb bars that were purchased more recently - probably under the assumption they would last longer. They last just fine, but I CANNOT lift anything with them, they screw me up on every single lift. Most guys wait around for a bench - I wait around for the bar that you're benching with. True story =( Also, @decaf where is the rugby thread?? | ||
