I did inverse for a while but quickly switched to barbell row 3x5.

As for how long? I would keep doing it until you stop making gains. Then you can switch to 3x5 and 1x5 if you want, or another program completely. I am doing what berz suggested a while back which is alternating between barbell and dumbell excercises each week. (eg one week dumbell press and the next time bench press)
ok thanks

is it bad to workout a muscle again if its sore, my triceps are a bit sore from 2 days ago but i wanna hit them again
in stronglifts u do legs 3 times a week so they are always sore, but they still grew like weeds

thanks

another question about the 5x5 and warming up

when you get to heavier weights (say 300lbs etc on squats or even much lower) you obviously don't just show up to the gym and start right at 300lbs correct?

you warm up but do those warm up reps count towards the 5x5?

I coughed up a mouthful of thick & chunky green goo this morning, but I think I am ready to get back on track again.

Going to do

it also doesnt say how long that original transformation took... just from 2009 to July 2010... so could be anywhere from 6 months to 18 months

As my gym membership is expiring soon, I decided to give YMCA a shot (friend used up a guest pass for me).

This was the Langara one, and boy it's a tight fit. When doing squats atg (Not in the power rack), it doesn't leave much room for someone to pass you or workout on the tricep pulldowns.

The cardio area reminded me of a farm, with TV embedded screens on all the treadmills, arranged in a 6x6 pattern. People droned into their tv's.

Kind of disappointed with the gym, Sports Central definitely is a better option at the moment.

P.S. I like the eye candy there, but it was more of a distraction

Good though

funny story today.

went to golds gym richmond around 630pm. bought a 1 month pass a few weeks ago from teambuy for $15. i'm about 2 weeks into my membership and i was told when i tried to go in today that the owner, victor newman (the chinese guy in the ctv interview about fake kinesiologist working as trainers), has decided to ban all teambuy members and memberships starting today.

obviously i was like wtf and told them that my membership was paid for already through teambuy. they told me i needed to get my refund from teambuy and that it was out of their hands. the workers themselves seemed kind of lost in this issue too and i don't blame them since this is essentially bullshit. i believe up to maybe 500-ish people signed up for the deal so im pretty sure there are going to be a lot of distraught customers they got to deal with and a lot of lost business over this deal.

so basically, fuck golds richmond, ubc and langley. fuck the sketchbag victor newman. they have single handedly fucked themselves in the ass with offering this deal than pulling it not even a few weeks in with no notification at all.

for anyone else that wants to read more about the sketchiness that is victor newman and golds gym, go here .

tl;dr version:
-been going to golds gym richmond 2 weeks in with 1 month pass from teambuy
-douchebag owner pulls deal without telling anyone except his staff and bans all teambuy members and memberships starting today
-going to be lots of angry pissed off customers
-FUCK GOLDS GYM RICHMOND, UBC, LANGLEY


so the question is, should i contact teambuy now to try to get a refund or fuck it and call up my cc company and do a chargeback?

Were you at SFU? can't imagine your condition if you were alone. Pretty sure those guys couldn't get that bar off you no matter how hard they tried.

Had a decent workout today, even though I am sick. Squat rack was taken of course, so I did deadlifts instead. Wasn't trying to build on my 330 though, so I kept it down for 2 work sets. I just about passed out after the last one

Press went well too, 121 lbs for 7 reps was the working set. Then I did those laying triceps extensions for the first time in quite a long time.. man I love those. Did 90 lbs x 7 for my top working set

Could barely walk or move after that

lol no surprise at golds being sketchy.

Teambuy and all those deal sites are pretty good about giving refunds so go through them. If they don't respond in a day or two, then call up CC.
