i got those when i took 1,3 dm....

Try standing on 35lb plates. It'll give you a 1in boost so the bar is just under your knee

I'm so pumped to workout right now, but I can't.
I have to wait until after 5pm tomorrow. FUCK

I did take a sample of 1 mr the first day I got the headache, but i don't see 1,3 dm on the ingredient list.

how long did it take for the headaches to go away?

its probably labelled as geranium

Inches off the waist while maintaining the same weight means more muscle less fat.

As for losing weight, you can't outexercise a shitty diet (unless you're micheal phelps)

How is your leg placement when you do this? I find it awkward to start my rackpulls from where my body would be if it were an actual deadlift. Any other way puts awkward stresses on my body so I need to back down the weight quite a bit. :okay:

awesome workout today!
3x5 squats 215lbs (shaky on second set but solid on 3rd)
military press tried working set at 75lbs but arched back too much so decided to go down to 70lbs. did 3x5 then went over to do a couple sets of dumbbell shoulder presses cuz i wasn't satisfied with my shoulder workout.
tried rack pulls for the first time today. i filmed a video of it and i don't think i fully locked out.

1x5 135lbs
1x5 205lbs
1x5 225lbs
1x6 245lbs
1x5 275lbs

then did a bunch power cleans.
5x3 80lbs
1x5 95lbs

then did some bench dips gripping dumbbells so my palms were facing each other and elbows could point backwards and foot rested on a box instead of the floor
3 sets to failure

so I managed to finish my 4 day routine early this week. Plan on using tomorrow or Sunday to try new exercises. The only thing I'm set on doing are deadlifts. Open to suggestions! (in b4 hip abduction machine) :alonehappy:

guilotine press using half your bench press weight or 40%

Managed to dl 295x2 tonight. I still can't manage a full 5x5 set of 150lbs for bench though but I am getting there :badpokerface:

those would be my surrey boys :fullofwin:

can i have some advice on my rack pulls. this was my first time doing them. i don't remember why i tip toed on my first rep lol

... the point of rackpulls is for locking out... ur not locking out d00d do that shit properly b4 injury brah

yea this was the first time watching myself do a deadlift and it doesn't look like i'm fully locked out even though i feel like i am

how should i lock out? because my knees are already locked, legs straight. hips are already open.
i see some people squeeze their shoulder blades together at the top of a deadlift. should i be doing that

It feels good when someone compliments your squat.

Good workout, minus the fact that I had very little carbs today.

do not bounce the weight, u might hit it uneven and go the wrong way.
its all about locking it out, squuuze your shoulders

Set up in a power rack with the bar on the pins. The pins should be set to the desired point; just below the knees, just above, or in the mid thigh position. Position yourself against the bar in proper deadlifting position. Your feet should be under your hips, your grip shoulder width, back arched, and hips back to engage the hamstrings. Since the weight is typically heavy, you may use a mixed grip, a hook grip, or use straps to aid in holding the weight.
With your head looking forward, extend through the hips and knees, pulling the weight up and back until lockout. Be sure to pull your shoulders back as you complete the movement.
Return the weight to the pins and repeat.

new PR for bench 180 5x5 no spotter ! feeeeeeellllssssgooooooooood :fuckyea:

i got a question for squats, how far apart should the legs be and should they point forward or out in like an angle ?

depends if you're doing parallel or atg, go atg

atg is a bit farther than shoulder width and parallel is more spread than that

feet point around 10-45 degrees your preference, or even not pointing at all if that's more comfortable

i do a lil more then parallel, but not really atg yet as im not very flexible

STRETCH 5-15 minutes a day and you'll be amazed at results :)

smashed gym, ate monster dinner
feelsgoodman

feel like im back even better than before my holliday and subsequent being a failure at the gym
