soo my school chickened out and is not allowing trainers to train students with free weights anymore... soo fuck that, going to do SS. Currently trying to write up a program since i havent done one yet, if anyone has any suggestions!

mon/wed/saturday and alternating between A and B

Warmup:
15 Minutes cardio

A:
Squats
45lbs X 5 X 2 (increasing 20 lbs until workload)
work X 5 X 3 (last 115lbs)

Press
45lbs X 5 X 2 (increasing 10 lbs until workload)
work X 5 X 3 (last 85lbs)

Deadlift
45lbs X 5 X 3 (i dont know what to do here since ive only done these once)

B:
Squats
Benchpress (last 85)

AB:
and then a bunch of dumbells, chinups, ab stuff

Anybody knows how many calories you burn in the average SS Squat session (so around 4warm up sets + 3 working sets)

My gym partner decided he wanted to run instead of squat cause he wants to lose weight and he doesnt believe me when I say squats will be more usefull than running...


lol. Just show him by your results when you become more ripped and he's still a fatass.


weight lifting burns few calories actually so if he just wants to lose weight running or swimming is probably the best options since both those activities burn alot of calories

Yeah if you can do all those exercises you're better off just following SS.

Definately stick with only SS, less is more. Your abs will look 100x better anyways.

Just came back from the gym and it went pretty good, i got maaaaad tired during triceps but other than that it went pretty good. Also, New PR on deadlift today! 100kg/220lbs

I know overhand grip is supposed to be good for your forearms but i have kind of always done my deadlifts with a mixed grip. Should i switch to overhand grip or stick to mixed grip?
We make signature, then defense it.

Been reading leangains; does it have to be 3 meals? Or could it just be 2 (8/16hrs apart depending how you look at it)?

The way I understand it, exercise type is irrelevant to weight loss relative to diet's influence. So, a focus on eating at a caloric deficit (but still high-quality foods!) will get him to his weight loss goals most efficiently.
The question of exercise type can then be addressed by what sort of body composition he's looking for.

Congrats on the PR! I'd say switch to double overhand if you can do it. If you find it hard, you can try rack deadlifts and hold it to improve your grip.

The way I understand leangains, you can do it in one meal (BCAA's before workout, and 3k calorie post workout meal) or you can eat CONSTANTLY within the eight hours. That part doesn't matter, it's just that your fasted time needs to be fasted, and you don't work out without something in your system.

Also make sure to get the macronutrient portions down.

So my job revolves around pushing a mower, running a weed wacker, raking leaves, etc. Six hours of mowing/raking today I think killed my bench =[.

Deadlifted a PR of 295lbs 1x5 though =]

Oh boy. Killed the squats at late night. 215 x 3 was relatively easy (my highest working set), 120 x 5 x 10 was a little bit more of a bitch. But I didn't want to die as much as when I first did em. And I didn't lose two pounds through bowel movements after.

Got one hell of a bitchin anatomy practical next week. Axial skeleton + lower limbs. Gross anatomy on muscular system. The entire knee joint (knowing all the connections and what not), along with being able to identify the different tissues used in the body (stuff like columnar, simple, starified). This is going to be one hell of a practical lol

You med student?

Cell types definitely sucks balls, but is straight forward after you see them enough.

The rest is all just straight memorization but really easy if you have good spatial awareness (knee that is).

okay okay so i finally manned up and tried some barbell stuff.

ended up doing 3x5 squats with like 95lb total(25 on ea side).
then did bench presses. slowly increased the bench press until it was hard for me to do 5 reps. got to 35 on ea side. realized that there was no way i could bench more than squat so went back and did 45lbs ea on squats. it felt hard to get in 5 reps, but after resting for awhile I didnt feel very tired.
is there an easy way to find a starting point for weightlifting or do you just futz around for awhile?

Pick a point, and start increasing the weights every single time you perform a particular lift, it's what's in Starting Strength.

Yup. My degree is in sports and biomechanics. Or if I decide to torture myself with organic chem, I could have an exercise science degree. Only difference between the two at my school. Going for my doctorate in physical therapy.

And yeah. I figured that was the case for all of this. Cell types are just hard because they'll have multiple cell types in each slide with the pointer at the correct answer. For example we have to do the dermis structure. It's somewhat hard to tell the difference between the hypodermis and dermis at 400x. :\

Hopefully a week is long enough to get tons of it down. I'll be spending a lot of time in open lab probably. Any lovely tips you would like to offer Eshlow will be followed.

Oh and I have the types of movements/articulations. So maybe now if I have an injury I can give you a correct description

Not quite sure how things work in the US...but how do those relate to being a med student? My understanding of a Med student is MD or DO or one of the international degrees like MBBS etc.

Unless you're doing MD/PhD and your PhD is in physical therapy? Just trying to learn, is all.

You major in pretty much anything undergrad as long as you take the pre med classes and the apply to grad school to get your MD

I had basically the same exam last week, minus the muscles but it was the whole skeleton, and obnoxious detail about the skull. Epithelial tissue I can handle, but connective tissue messes with my head each time that I see it. There are just too damn many categories of it =/.

In the US, you typically do an undergrad degree for four years which can be anything, so long as you take a core set of science courses. Personally, I'm doing biology and Exercise Science with a minor in philosophy for giggles. After that you have a bachelors, and attend medical school (graduate school) to receive an MD.
