BPA free bottle.
I dropped a 38kg db on it. It was squashed flat and burst open but a single pinch brought it back to shape.

Where to get?

nvm, I guess I'll just order it. Sucks that they only sell bottles that only hold a liter.. 2 liters would be much better.

You could get two bottles :D

I just use the typical gatorade squeeze the outlet. Cheap and effective.
how reasonable is it to eat off wood instead of your tummy?

I lol'd

@celltech: Thought about getting two, but I rather save the money and not be lazy and just go refill it even though people will sometimes just remove some of the plates I'm still using, it's like they don't care about the towel marking my territory. Sometimes I wish I wasn't so god damn thirsty and drank 5 liters a day ;_;

home gym arrived, its completely epic. spent hours putting it together!! only two issues, first the weights are frickin tiny so i will need to measure up some stand to make them a normal height in pc/dead, second the clips dont even begin to fit the bar (are u menna soak them in hot water first or what) so ive gotta order & wait for some new ones to arrive :@@@ (the weights are super slippery too).
might have some photos tomorrow morning if i wake up early and its not raining

FS 110x5x3 (that reads 3 sets of 5s)

Did more work with C&Js up to 80 kg, 80 felt so heavy before, but was super easy today, I think having confidence helps a ton in doing cleans

If it reads 3 sets of 5 just type 3x5 :p

I wanted to back squat 110kg 3x5 today but I didn't make it, failed at the 5th rep ;_; that's what you get for drinking..
Forgive me padre for I have sinned!

I'll make it monday then, just kinda sucks because that's my press and deadlift day and those exercises are way more taxing than bench and rows.

I'll be really careful from now on who I ask to spot me on the squat, I'd rather fail a squat than have any of those guys 'help' me. The first guy didn't notice that I wasn't able to move the weight anymore so I had to lower to the safety catches of our shitty squat rack and drop the weight. I mean that's not too bad, the catches are a bit too low though and you can't adjust them, impossible to get the weight down there with a straight back. Should I rather drop the weight backwards off of my back or should I kinda try to lean forward and round my back a bit? I already go ATG but it's still to high for those catches..

On another note, in 2 or 3 months when I'll squat about 130kg I will switch to a different, more advanced routine and I want to incorporate front squats and snatches/cleans. There are excellent videos on how to learn the snatch and the clean on youtube, but I'd like to know what kind of first steps I should take to be able to overhead squat properly, because I lose the weight forward. Now my current routine doesn't include front squats so I don't do these already, but I guess they would help with learning to overhead squat, right? How would you go about learning how to overhead squat? Being able to full snatch is the goal.

Do not lean forward. Tore something in my back doing that and I haven't been able to squat in the past three months. Still in physical therapy for it :/ Hopefully I can start squats from bodyweight in June

s: I see
I guess I'll just kind of throw it off my back then somehow, don't really want the bar to roll down my back though..

Also today I had someone 'spot' me who pulled me backwards so I fell over.. at least I didn't get hurt. You can explain all you want, you can tell those guys 10 times how you spot properly, they will still ruin your bench sets as if it was a team exercise and not spot you properly on the squat. I told this guy to make sure not to pull me backwards or push me forwards.. I always try to pick the guy with the biggest legs, but they all don't squat lol. I'll just have to quit my membership there eventually. If at least the only squat rack wasn't a piece of crap so I wouldn't have to ask anyone to spot me in the first place.. /:

Hope you recover quickly!

i dump off my back if using bumper plates (preferred). if not i just ride it down into the safety rack. never had much of an issue with it (did it with 221 yesterday).

as for learning overhead squat...just do it lol. first time i did i fell over using just the bar lols.

Well, the safety rack in my gym must have been built by midgets. I guess I'll just try it a couple of times with the empty bar or a plate on each side or whatever.

Overhead squats aren't easy lol especially when you kinda lack the shoulder mobility :p But I'll work on it, thanks! Already got a decent amount of info so I know now what to do. Next time you guys hear from me I'll bring some new PRs to the table :D
Happy lifting~

AM: bit of everything, 60kg sq/bp, 40kg ohp, 100kg deads, 60kg pc, mobility is shot to peices
PM: sq 80kg 3x5, ohp 50kg 1x5, pc 60kg, dc (dumbell curls) 15kg, lr (lateral raises), had a go at rows (need to look up rows and snatch)

tomorrow i have to find a tree to do pullups from, there is no such tree here but there might be one up the road, will have to buy some pullup rings or just a rope or whatever.

edit: jackpot

Workout two days ago:

3 sets 5 squats @ 335
3 sets 5 bench press @ 225
2 sets 5 deadlift @ 405, failed second set after three reps

Holy shit, first time deadlifting in nearly two weeks, and the resulting DOMS is so intense! My body de-adapts so quickly: makes me feel like I can't afford to take recovery breaks :-/

Used to bench 140kg (310lbs), then sc2 came out and i lost like 20kg (45lbs) musclemass because i didnt lift for over 2 years.

I m working out since newyear and my bench is currently at 115kg (255lbs), but i still have to gain 10kg musclemass to get on my old level. My bodyfat is a bit lower, my legs are sticks compared to what they were, my upper body is showing good results so far

Upper body stuff is super stuck. I've resorted to the old reliable plan of eating more. We will see how it progresses. I've also not slept the best due to midterms.

Also increased flexibility makes squat form a fair bit easier.

What is this 'recovery break' you speak of?

mmhh getting some pain recently in the hip (flexor?) area when/after squatting. guess i really need to work on mobility there now...

another thing i recently started to get problems with is lowering the bar after the deadlift. i cant really drop it (workout at home, dont want to fuck up the floor.. also noise issue cause i often workout really late at night) and when putting it back down i apparently do it in a bad way. i can bring the weight up rather easily but the reverse is a different problem. any tricks?



oh also how do you deal with situations where your workout is on a day where you already had quite some physical activity? be it from work, doing stuff outside whatever. for example last friday my knees,hips and lower back were already strained from the day and it was squat+deadlift time. i had to cutoff during the last set of squats and leave the last 2 dls cause of that.
