Yeah, I think they'll be very helpful with front squatting around my back injury

Yeah they look awesome.

I found they helped me a lot, I used to put 1.25kg plates under my heels and it was less than ideal. I think you'll like them, I'm in love with mine.

Good luck defac and dimsum

I just work out to be healthy. does having more strength = better anything else aside from physical?


The strength from lifting weights is not very practical, actually it's next to useless in real world situations, the only thing it will really do for you is allow you to do things like pull yourself up somewhere or moving furniture, as well as people being more scared of you etc.

If you want to be healthy generally it's much better to do sports such as swimming and biking. Stretch a lot, eat healthy. That's what you do if you want a healthy heart and generally live longer.



It makes me feel a lot better. It's small stuff, like I jump up stairs 3 at a time, I used to skip 1 and now I skip 2. Lots of people don't skip any and still find big flights of stairs give them a hard time. I think it also helps with confidence, you just feel really capable.


Being strong allows you to pickup girls literally and squat them. Bitches love being squatted.

Front squat or back squat? Or is it overhead?


This is probably the one situation where a zercher squat might be appropriate.

I've back squatted girls, but its kinda a good morning cause u have to lean foward so they dont fall behind. Never tought of zercher squat them for some reason lol. Will try on friday


My ex used to love being squatted. Her mom also liked it a lot. lol.

funny..kinda.

I squatted my girlfriend a few times while on holiday. It's obviously not a very big squat (she weighs 50kg), but because the weight is a bit higher up on your shoulders, the bigger lever makes it feel considerably heavier (I made the mistake of saying "Wow, this is heavy!" on the first set, she wasn't happy). To stop the squat from becoming a good morning, I just get my gf to hold on to a pull-up bar while I'm squatting, that way there's never a risk of falling backwards so I can do a normal squat. Also, using the pull-up bar, my gf can squat me (80kg) since I can provide some assistance. All in all, I found it to be a pretty good way to get some exercise done while on holiday.

I got back from a week long holiday in the mountains yesterday so I had my first gym session in a while. Deadlifted 160kg x5 (PR) and 140kg x4 (PR), 125k x5, and 110kg x6 (RPT), so I'm damn happy. A few months back when I was still squatting around 100kg, I saw funkie squat 140kg and I thought that was insane. Since then, a three-plate squat has been my goal. Really happy to have finished it now. My technique was OK, but before I go up with the weight any more I need to work on my back again. So for the next few weeks I'm planning to go back to 125kg 3x5 and work my way up to 140kg 3x5.

That's good to hear. I tried front squatting with some plates under my heels and I could keep my back completely straight while going atg. Hopefully that means I can front squat again without injuring my back again.

Dimsum is lifting now.
Hit a nice 90 snatch. Very smooth
Going up to 94 and missed it behind. Misses 95 forward.

Now decaf starts. Opened with 125 but pressed it out and didn't wait for down so he missed it.
Still moves to 130 and it was a nice and strong lift.
Misses 132.

Jon North bombed on snatch. (150x, 153x, 155x) Gets 155 with a joke forth attempt lol (snatches were over).

Dimsum starts with 110 on c/j and destroys it.
Goes to 115, gets pushed down into a squat jerk and couldn't hold.
Misses the clean on second 115. 200kg total.

Looks like decaf opened with 146 and made it.
Smashed 150.
And gets 155. 285kg total. Somebody called decaf a spartan in chat.
WeMade FOX would be a deadly SC2 team.

Hmm they don't seem to be announcing names, that's unfortunate. I can recognize dimsum but not sure if I'll know which one decaf is.. best of luck to them both :D

e: @above, i thought decaf said he's gonna open with 125? Can you change the #s the day of? Even then, I don't think decaf's gonna open with 110..

Theyre both done snatch. Decaf came out and the chat was just like "wow." "Strong". "Dont know who this is but wow". One guy thought he did crossfit.

I think 130 is a pr though? Last vid i remember was of 127.

Cant wait for clean and jerk.

Go guys, was training until now, but at least I can watch the CJ. Is this the tryouts for the Muscledriver stipends? I want them to want you guys, lol.
