Hahaha so true. I will probably be downloading the game today though, I just finished getting my newly built pc up and running last night.

Tried front squats for the first time. Did about 70% of my current back squat and man it was tough. Also got 320 two inches off the floor twice (inch further than with 315 a week ago Monday when I failed! xD). I tried to channel my inner decaf again but it didn't work. The back of my hips has been bothering me for a couple weeks but it comes and goes and its not always sore/painful after a specific exercise either. Anyways, I'm pretty sure it gets sharp right when I break the ground and I'm really focused on lifting but the pain signal overrides what I'm thinking and I stop? Meh. Need to eat more anyways, losing weight

I'm still sore from monday.

Taking 4 days off the gym isn't the smartest of ideas.

Your body will punish you for thinking that was good.

in the brightside, I love feeling like this, it's such a reminder of how good I did on monday .

Went to a different crossfit today. Much better experience! They actually have a pendlay bar and a platform and enough weights for me so defintely a good enough set up if not the quality i'm used to. Two of the guys worked there were really impressed when i snatched 245/cj 315 and are stoked for me to help them with their form, ended up spending like 90 minutes coaching 6 different people over my workout. It's right next to my job so i think i'll be lifting there every day now :D


Which crossfit? You moved to nc right?

High point. It's not a very big one.

Instead, continue focusing on those squats and eating, send me your computer and the game, and I'll play it for you.

It's my deload week for crying out loud

word.


Same, after + Show Spoiler +
getting raped by technics on ISL I gave up on playing bw.


I'm giving a second chance to poker though, but that is supposed to be profitable :p

Today:

Deadlift (from platform): 130kgx3x2, 142.5kgx2x4
BP: 100x3x2, 110x2x3, 95x3x2, 80x6, 70x8
Side dumbell raises: 5kg (LOL) x10x5
Deadlift: 155kgx3x2, 175kgx3x5
Good Mornings: 60kgx5x5

Cliffs:
-I managed to annoy 2 groups of people with my double deadlift sessions. The ammount of noise non-bumper plates make is ridic.
-I'm also ruining the bar, cause sides (thing that rotate) are starting to slip outwards, but won't tell anyone.
-I've done so much volume this last 2 weeks that all my older aches seem to be gone (knee, harmstring, shoulder)
-Started taking 10 000 UI vit D after workout or at night
-My hands are strong as fuck again, thx to multiple heavy triples.

Also, the lengends of my favorite team, A.C Milan are retiring/moving to other teams. Nesta, gattuso, seedorf, INZAGHI. Here is their last goal together :'(, so beautiful

Power snatch up to 225, Power clean and jerk up to 245, couple FS at 315

Can already tell the muscles around my left shoulder blade are gonna be sooooooore. luckily i have tomorrow off for the bar and a ball game with guys at work. Left shoulder is being a bitch lately

Guys i've been helping out with the lifts took me to a steakhouse today! I guess there are perks to helping people out :D

When should one start using a belt for deads/squats? I have no idea whether my lumbar spine curves or not, ill prolly film next deadlift session.

Slept 12 hours this night, fell asleep with my legs on the floor and my torso on the bed, arms extended holding onto a cellphone (was in the middle of a text). Woke up couple of hours later and had to take a piss, drank a caseinshake while i was up and went to bed again. Or actually I jumped back into bed to realize that where was a couple of weightplates under the duvet... god damnit homegyms

@decaf, man I wish I could workout with someone who knows good form. would totally buy them dinners and drinks

but imo he was lucky to get that last deadlift. didn't look locked out to me

Confirmed, Vit D works like steroids. Today must be the first day in a year I woke up without pain. Also my weight fluctuations since I started my new program are sick.

In answer, they've opened up a "deal" with the Ballet studio that they share a building with, and started offering various cardio/abs/kickboxing/zumba/yoga/other BS classes at night. End result is that the gym is flooded with 17 & 18 year old girls that hardly wear any clothing, and don't seem to realize how distracting they are. I was asked twice "what muscles does that work", once about form, and twice to spot a girl benching 20kg, when the girl herself can't weigh more than 45kg. Either they're trying to get my attention, or I need to find a new gym.

Not sure whether to be mad or not. Depends on how many of them turn out to be at least 18.


Just for the record, I suggest you should just treat them human beings and not fuss over their age and what not. Thinking of them as being underage does not make you come across as a good person, just a shallow, one-track mind kind of guy. If one does come on to you in a way then worry about it, before then just treat them with some respect, help them out if they ask for it (or even if they don't, just to be a good human being). Hell, maybe it could help them understand the importance of weights for female fitness. Odds are they're just having fun if they're a group. Just carry on working out as normal. It sounds like you're defensive and upset that a group that isn't your own would dare step foot in your gym and partly egotistical in assuming they're interested (which could geniunely be the case, I wasn't there.) I've constantly asked other people who look like they know they're doing to spot me or check my form. It's just part of the gym community. You help each other out.

You just need to relax and continue as normal. If you're worried about other members thinking you're coming on to underage girls then you should be old enough to know how to deal with stupid people.

I don't normally post stuff like this, but something about the way your post is written rubbed me the wrong way.

It clearly that rubbed you the wrong way. I usually get annoyed by chauvinistic comments, but that comment didn't bother me at all. The premise is simple: Hot girls that constantly seek your attention/ask for help are distracting. I think that's a universal. Phyre suggests that it's distracting enough for him to consider changing gyms which suggests that it's pretty damn distracting, since nobody likes changing gyms for no reason. The only way he won't change gyms is if the social benefits of girls flirting with him at gym outweighs the disadvantage of being distracted at gym. This would only be the case if the girls are of age, otherwise they're simply distractions.

I dunno, like I said it didn't come across chauvinistic to me. You could replace the "hot girls distraction" with a "loud weightlifters distraction" and "social benefits" with "training benefits" and the gist of post would be pretty much the same.
