no its not your small hands lol
just build up your grip
what i used to do was double overhand as many as i could before switching to mixed
at one point, i even completely dropped doing a mixed grip for awhile and worked up to 300lb x 4 on overhand @ 135
and use chalk or something, it helps ALOT

yeah that's what I heard too..

chances are im probably going to stick with what I'm doing right now because i'm making slow progressive gains in strength

+1 to chalk

a gym that doesn't allow chalk (or deadlifting) is not a gym, i'd call it a cardio fitness center

unless its something that protects your joints (knee sleeves, belt, wrist wraps) I wouldn't suggest using any assistive aids at all

Things like straps, gloves, squat pads, and whatever weird innovative useless pieces of crap they have around nowadays

^ This. I only use liquid chalk. Doesn't leave any sort of mess, other then a little residue on the bar, which the next guy will thank you for anyhow :p It's not invisible, as it dries to your hands it goes white, but it's very convenient.

What did you guys eat when you had your wisdom teeth extracted?

I'm looking specifically for calorie-dense foods, preferably with no lactose.

Going to blend a steak for shits and giggles

Coconut milk would be up there on the list ^

rs group buy, anyone?
28g of protein for 2 slices of bread and 14g of protein for a spoonful of peanut butter....
double the price of normal bread though :(

I prefer Nuts-n-More brand spreads, tastes amazing

Can buy from Nutraways, ships out of North Van. I usually order 5 or 6 jars at a time, shipping is free over $70

^ how do people justify spending that much on peanut butter?

how do people justify making it rain at the club for nothing
at least this peanut butter is calories and spending money on food
i have no problem dropping money on food what so ever

wooo pb. dumbbell press chest 90's 1x7.

if they can finish it, why not?

peanut butter has some of the healthiest fats out there, I spread it on anything and everything

Has high concentration of mono fats, vitamins and minerals and depending on the brand, some protein in there as well

It's high in calories

Best yet, compared to supplements, it's cheap!

Peanut butter is delicious. I would go with natural peanut butter because it doesn't have added salt and hydrogenated oils.

I gotta try your peanut butter balls some day. They look delicious

Thanks man. My balls are delicious you should make it sometime. I saw that SC are selling balls too but their balls are bigger than mine.

:D

This sure is taking a turn for the wrong direction haha. The elbow sleeves trap so much sweat in them. I'm actually leaking sweat onto the floor from the sleeves.

Anyways my bodybuilding stack came into. Sweet protein goodness.

Winners have not been decided yet, wilks will be calculated and I'll post an updated version. sorry false alarm guys.

Did u scale it down using wilks?

dam i should've did 2 reps in the lightweight class, would've won :pokerface:

Thanks for the heads up. I'll do it up and post an updated version for the weekend.

Shit I'm not trying to wiggle my way to a better spot or anything LOL. I was wondering if thats what you did because I'm ranked higher than bvu when he has more reps.

Iirc, illmatic posted a video in lightweight division!

anyone care to try the workout i made? its primarily for strength, and is similar in structure to the various 5x5 programs, but with lower reps per sets and higher overall intensity. its perfect for intermediate/advanced lifters and for those who enjoy lower rep sets. im still tweaking the percentages. give me your feedback

try it and let me know what you think
