Feels great to see you all doing well.

Had my first workout today and it felt kinda good to be back, although my shoulders and hips were still pretty messed up from last weekend snowboarding/drinking.

Started doing more weights recently and I feel like I am hitting everything but I just wanted to check that I’m not missing some major muscle group. I do everything at home with dumbbells and here's a basic schedule for the week

Monday- Chest+Tricep consists of tricep dips, tricep extensions, chest press, chest fly, chest dips, chest pullovers.

Wed- Back+Biceps consists of concentration curls, hammer curls, dead lift, bent over dumbbell row, dumbbell row, forearm lifts

Fri- Shoulders+Legs consists of dumbbell shoulder press, shrugs, side/front lateral raise, standing oblique extension, squats, dumbbell lunges/step ups.

Cardio 3 times a week on top of this. Does this cover everything adequately?


idk how far you'll get using dumbells to squat, dead

you seem to miss out pullups/chinups. i cant comment on anything else as i dont know. you should follow a real program if at all possible (read ops)

Back to working out today.

Weight: 177 lbs (gained two pounds was really hoping to stay even or lose some)
Close-Grip Bench: 3x135, 3x155, 3x185
Front Squat: 3x135, 3x155, 3x165
Bodyweight Pull-Ups (to failure): x9, x5, x3 Can't seem to make much progress on these. Becoming really frustrating
Bodyweight Dips (to failure): x17, x11, x7 My arms were completely dead after the first set
Weighted Glute Ham Raises: 8x10lbs 8x10 8x10
Dumbbell Shrugs: 12x80, 10x100, 8x100
Straight Leg Deadlift: 12x70, 12x70
One Arm Dumbbell Rows: 12x40, 10x40, 8x40
Did some bodyweight abdominal stuff and then flipped more tires! Yay! I really do enjoy flipping tires and I do it alot. Haha Felt like a pretty good workout. I have 5x5 week next week so I better get prepared. I am dreading 5x5 Cleans though O.O Hopefully I can keep on trimming up as I'm starting to see the results!

I have had a question on my mind as of late. Why do people do snatches? They seem like an easy way to hurt yourself. I remember watching this a while back in the Olympics:


Luckily he walked away okay, but it seems much more dangerous than any other lifts.

How do you hurt yourself doing a snatch?

Steiner only dropped it on himself because it was the olympics and he tried much to hard to hold onto a missed lift.

Steiner didn't even get hurt from that lift lol. If it was possible to get hurt snatching(outside of elbow dislocation which is rare) I would have done it. I've dropped a couple on myself and taken a few to the ground but no pain or injuries. Weightlifting has something like 4 injuries per thousand hours and it's mostly a strained muscle or something

Hmmm I have never tried a snatch before so I have no personal experience. I guess it is from a fear of having that happen to me. Even though it seems like injuries don't occur from that, I just can't get my mind over the fact that having that happen to you hurts like crazy. Darned fear. I guess I will just stick to my other main lifts.

I wouldn't be surprised if powerlifting is worse for injuries just because you're going to be using about twice the weight.

The one that amazes me is how much strongman guys get injured and just come back from it. Savickas, who's the world's current strongest man, tore both patellar tendons off and within a year won world's strongest man 2002.


Doing snatches will make you more comfortable. It's like an overhead press, you know you could always just drop it forwards or step back and let it fall.

If you're going to miss a lift you just let go and your body gets out of the way. It's literally one of the safest sports

Today's Workout:

Squat
5x5 52kg

Bench
3x5 and 2x4 of 61kg (Decided to suck it up and just add the extra weight.. Turns out I was the one stopping myself from going up)

Pull Up
3x5 BW + 2.3kg

I am so happy I completed this today. It was my first ever weighted pull up, and although the weight was minimal, it still felt good

Haven't posted much, as I'm doing a hypertrophy split atm. Still strength gains, but mostly just looking a lot sexier. Got a wow the other day when I took my t-shirt up. To be really honest I'd rather squat an extra 10kg more though, why dat shit so hard.

Well, people like Savickas most likely take a lot of illegal supplements to help the injuries heal up.

They certainly help but they don't turn you into Wolverine.

Strongmen are generally just made from different stuff than other people and especially the elite.

A good Saturday workout would often be event training which involved Yoke Carrying, Farmer's Walks, Atlas Stones and Circus Dumbbell Presses. Then they would finish it off with what could be considered a normal workout, only with heavier weights than most of us would max.

Circus Dumbbell Presses you say? Poundstone is a freaking beast...

Brain Shaw came to the local strongman gym, and they asked him if he could pick up the heavy circus dumbbell which is like 120kg or something stupid. They meant just like pick it up off the floor and he just picked it up and started walking around asking where he should press it.

It's just an inhuman strength. PEDs will be the icing on the cake, without them they'd still be inhumanly strong (and enormous).
