lol its not dead, were workin on our gainz bro

new pr 135 deadlift

pr's today!
95x4 dumbell flat
85x6 dumbell incline!

so close to the goal of 100 for flat!
unfortunately i cant solo it up though. Need help in the beginning to get it to working position.

finally starting to deadlift again after hurting my lower back in november. on a side note, rolling lacrosse balls on my lower back :sweetjesus:

you try using two lacrosse balls and rolling it down the vertebrae? feels even better than a massage

New pr 315 deadlift. Jesus it was heavy!

Did biceps for the first time in a few months. Geez that was boring

I just bought a 6 pack of lacrosse balls over the weekend too. Taped 2 pairs up, now I have a set for my gym bag and a set for home

is this bro science?

First time doing a leg workout in ages, since cycling has taken over... It just confirms why I stopped. I'm going to be sore for a week. Shiet. There goes this weeks ride.

go for light rides to recover and get blood flow to minimize the soreness

I went for a super slow ride yesterday for an hour, no hills. I'll do the same today. Stanley Park is actually quite nice when your not so focused on pushing so hard. Who knew :p

^^ Def. I sit on the spin cycle for 3-5min after a leg day just to cool down, it really helps with the stiff/soreness.

the part with the wooden incline ramp is brutal lol

whats bro science about it? lean anything in general looks better than fat.. look around

DIPPED UNDER 229!

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE ES

no he's talking about cortisol/insulin levels.

I find my brother is lean and cut, but he has fat face.

triple benched 315 yesterday -( form was more or less intact even as i hit the third rep, just went up a bit slower), after heavy squats (well for me that is, not for many of you here) that day lol. i decided i'll be testing my new max very soon in the next month or so. i expect to hit a very big pr before my birthday the coming month

just a reflection on my workout yesterday:

i have found heavy pullups with weight strapped around my waist to be very helpful in breaking my own bench plateaus
also unilateral seated rows have really allowed me to target the mid back, which is vital to a high bench. the muscles of the mid back play a huge role in keeping your body nice and tight while you bench

really starting to hate barbell rows because of the stress it places on my back, i feel like i'm focusing more on keeping myself bent in position (which really taxes out my lower back) rather than getting in quality movements for the upper back which is what the exercise is actually supposed to target. just my opinion though, i know some guys are in love with barbell rows

worst work out session ever..

losing motivation :okay:

any tip on how to get better grip on dumbbell? tried 65 flat bench today can't get my left hand grip it feel like it snapping back maybe it too heavy for me but my right hand is perfectly fine can hold it with good grip just left hand is shit( pretty much on everything i can't get proper grip on my left)

Start switch hitting when your doing the deed :p

Seriously though, do some farmers walks. Strangely benching doesn't really require huge grip strength?

3:53-4:25, you stimulate your calves from everyone walking, so I do heavier weights low reps, even though I'm a high rep kinda guy.
