Upper/Lower is indeed awful - it should be upper/upper/upper/upper/lower ofc ofc.


chest/arms/shoulders/back/calves duh


You forgot biceps you fuckin poser do you even lift?

Yeah it's supposed to be biceps/biceps/triceps/chest/chest

Biceps/Biceps/Biceps/Biceps/Arms is more balanced I think. If you cheat hard enough on the curls, that counts as a compound exercise, so you don't need to do the rest of your body aka abs then.

Did cleans up to 195 lbs and it felt great. Also did 5x5 Deadlifts @ 225 just to get back to it (haven't done them in like 3-4 months). Felt alright. Mostly the middle of my back getting the stress, not really the side where it got injured.

Played some basketball today and then deadlifted 525lbs (PR)! It came off the floor fairly easily, might try for another PR next week.


Very nice! Thats right where my max is and doubt any room to go up lol. What are your other lifts at?

Last I maxed my bench was at 330 and squat was at 400. I've had to pump the breaks on squats, my knees have been killing me. I ordered Flex hoping that it might help me out with my knees/elbows.

Just squat ATG and foam roll your IT bands. Should take care of the knee pain!

Today
Cj 50 70 100 120 130 132 134 136 138 140 142 144 146x

Then did some conditioning! Felt great to get some spirits in.

I wish I could squat ATG, I can barely get below parallel. Foam roll is a good idea, I need to pick one up. I've been looking for one locally, but they've been trying to sell them for $40 a pop. >.>

Any advice on improving my mobility so I can go ATG? I've been doing body weight one legged squats, body weight squats, and low-weight pause squats to warm up.

+ broomstick squats
+ ankle mobility (kneel/squat down and put all your weight on one ankle to stretch it. hold this for 2-3 minutes per leg, you will feel it begin to stretch properly after 2 minute mark. you will need something like a bench to hold onto infront of you. raising the ankle you're stretching, by putting that foot on a raised surface (wooden block, towels) will help apply more force in the stretch. this stretch will also help hip mobility greatly as you bend further over your ankle)

do these in rotation for 30 mins whilst watching something, every day for 1 week, squatting will become 100x better.
you should never ever squat if its causing pain in your knees, thats like the worst possible thing. work around it so that you're not causing pain, while you work on your ankle mobility for the week...

Tried to go back to real deadlifting.... instantly fucked my back again. First rep of first warm up set.

looks like I'm back to waiting for the pain/stiffness to go away (probably a week), then front squats and GHR's indefinitely =(. I'm never going to be strong like decaf/tractor/bull/etc.

This guy, lifts then conditions with more drinking. Unreal.

I'll hang out with you in the no deadlifting club.

Back in the gym for the first time in two months after just back rehab and bodyweight stuff. It's summer break so I figured it would be pretty empty. All I wanted was to see where my bench was and do some hammy work since my left is half the size of the right. Turns out the benches are all open and everyone is doing legs O.o Exact opposite of what I anticipated lol.
