For the dampening if the rowing machine, between 3-5 is the general consensus that best stimulates water. Going above that is considered unnecessary. I'm assuming you're using a concept 2 if course. | ||

Monday - Worked up to 100kg snatch 130kg clean and jerk Wednesday - Worked up to 80kg in sn and cj Thursday - Up to 105kg sn Some squats mixed in there too. Also managed to do a normal looking 3x5 pull ups, i think my pinched nerves are starting to get back to normal so i'm not super lopsided. About 4 weeks out from competition. | ||

I haven't spent enough time to figure out exactly what it means, it seems to be less intuitive than just a resistance setting. Also planning to get bigger soon, thanks :D Hit my lowest weight in a while last week. I set it at 6 or 7 because someone told me to do that. Who knows if that's a good setting. I guess I could try 3-5. | ||

US heavyweights like to have their dampers all the way up to 135~, but lower back injuries are also much more common. I personally have the damper on 120~. The relationship between the damper & the drag factor depends per machine and changes over time, the only way you will know before your row that you are on the right drag factor is to go through this process. Takes like 20 secs though. | ||

Bench Press - 145x8x4 Incline Bench - 110x8x4 Chin-ups - BWx8x4 *Lateral Raise - 25x10x3 *Front Raise - 15x10x3 Dumbbell Curls w/ Fat Gripz - 25x12x3 Barbell Shrugs - 230x12x3 Face-pulls - light band x20x3 *supersetted the two shoulder exercises Everything felt pretty good today. I think I'm just going to stick with the higher volume on everything and take some time to work on my lower back pain. If it's mostly cleared up in a few weeks I might go back to some lower rep work, but I think I can still build enough strength with sets of 8 so it's not too big of a deal. | ||

Sorry for the anticlimactic story. I probably could've pushed it if I really wanted to, but given that I had to walk for graduation I just didn't feel like risking anything. | ||

It's starting to shrink, but it was pretty massive when I first got it. I couldn't really walk on my foot for one day because my foot was pretty sensitive and I didn't want the blood blister to burst, and I figured that since most lifting requires me to be on my feet it would probably be best just to wait a little bit. Sorry for the anticlimactic story. I probably could've pushed it if I really wanted to, but given that I had to walk for graduation I just didn't feel like risking anything. Ha nice. I walked three days after ACL reconstruction, you probably would have made it  | ||

A 2k is quite long, and a higher drag factor really doesn't necessarily lead to lower times. Protip: if you are doing 100m sprints or something silly, then you should aim for a higher drag factor (150 or so). I don't know why on earth you 2k so often though, they are zero fun haha. | ||
