I still have yet to try rack pulls, I always forget about them when I get to the gym
:okay:

im on the 5th week of stronglifts, and wow i love it

squats 130 -> 160
bench 140 -> 155
rows 135 -> 155
overhead press 105 -> 115
deadlift 225 -> 245
pullups 160 -> 175

didnt gain a pound though, feelsbadman

Sometimes I superset a trap exercise after rack pulls... either normal shrugs or lateral raises for traps. feelsgoodman

Wow your overhead press is strong but I feel like your squats should be higher though.
I've been on the program for 6 months LOL.:okay:

Yea I was thinking that too his overhead is really strong. That's about what I'm repping currently for standing overhead.

Berz out.

I'm quitting working out forever

strangely im around the same for standing OH presses. 115-125 but only for 4-5 reps. feels like an eternity before i hit 135.

Ah I'm in the 8 rep range at 115 for 4 sets.... I do much more seated.

Berz out.

time to start stronglift program

4 plate squats here I come :fullofwin:

Keep it up!

Takes a long time to move up on OHP. Most I can do is 140 x 5/3/2 = 10 reps

I was going to do deadlift first, but instead I will try it last tommorrow.

close grip underhand pull downs, barbell rows, seated cable row, deadlift

Oh Yeah! Reached my goal and early too!
Goal: Starting Sept.13, To drop down from 166 to 145 by end of the year.

Im normally 150lbs but this summer I over did it with the BBQ and slacked at the gym. Result, gained 16lbs of fat. Once summer was over and the grill put alway, I decided it was time to hit the gym hard again. 3 months later, I've been hovering around 140 -143lbs for the past week. Lost almost 26lbs in 3 month, all gym-no diet. Haha I like eating too much to follow any sort of real diet.

Now to keep the fat off and gain more muscle weight.

^ time to bulk up

im kinda cheating tho with the overhead press, i do push press rather than military, think im gonna lower the weight and do proper military

and yea overhead press is crazy hard to add weight, im pretty much only doing 5-5-3-2-2 reps

UGH!! i thought i got better since last wednesday so i decided to go for a light day at the gym on tuesday. warmed up with rowing machine, which was fine. then proceeded to do some light squats. put on a plate and got a throbbing headache after 2 sets. had to leave pretty much after 10 minutes in the gym. i've had ~8 painful headaches since last wednesday so decided to go to the ER. stayed there for 18 hours, had a CT scan and a CT angiogram. Turns out i have a millimetre wide bleed in my head but it has nothing to do with the headaches. The neurosurgeon thinks i have reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome but the stroke/neurologists thinks i have exertion headaches

the cause, trigger and symptoms seem to exactly resemble the latter though. sigh...pretty much i haven't been able to go to the gym properly for 2 weeks now. probably going to take it REALLY easy for another week though and try again. feel so weak and fat. wish i could go and destress from finals but i can't.

Skinnypup, i thought you were asian. WTFUX?

I don't know if it was going light last time or working grip more but I finally got got to 255 x 3 deadlift

darryn lyons? :pokerface:

feel like crap i have not worked out in 3 weeks after injuring my back on deadlifts. i tweaked it again trying to grab my kid when he was about to fall off the bed and now i have a fuckin cold.
Anyone got any motivational stuff i want to go back monday?
Also learned some one from the gym passed away beacuse of heart failure. The guy was only 22 and he use to do cardio all the time and was really fit. How does something like this happen?

Sometimes employees take it upon themselves to sell steroids. Also, like you were looking for Therma-Lean, a lot of stores carry banned supplements behind the counter. I doubt you'd see handcuffs for that though, so most likely it was steroids.
Cable squats yo :troll:

Had to google him.. hope you're referring to the red hair and not the physique :heckno:

bro for some reason i thought you were some huge asain dude not a white guy with a red mohawk

Well now it's out there for everyone then!

oh didn't see workout thread v2.0. was wondering what happened to the old one.

final exams coming up.. gonna be hard to study and stay motivated in the gym at the same time. :okay:

absolutely fucking crushed the gym again tonite.

Have figured out how to get the posts from the old thread back! They will just be inserted into this thread. I'll do it overnight Vancouver time since I'll have to take the site down
