Oh oh. Sounds as if it may be a concussion. You'll be o.k. though. Don't fret on being on a bad H.S. football team. These are the best years of your life, so enjoy it the best you can, and play as hard as you can. It sounds as if you have that covered though. Good luck with the rest of the season.

Posted by: RasPlasch

Nice job man.

I'm thinking abour trying box squats. But how far do you go down on them?

Don't leg extensions hurt your knees?

And what I just tried for calf work. Was putting weight on a smith machine then setting a board or something of that nature on the ground then doing calf raises. I did them 3-4 days ago and my calves are still sore haha.



Posted by: Rubes11

i got to parallel or just below.

and it hurts them a little bit thats why the weight is kinda light.

for some odd reason my calves dont ever get sore. but the box squats killed me i had to wrestle today and took 3rd lost to a kid that i should have never lost to in semis so i had to wrestle to get into the 3rd place match and stuff.



Posted by: RasPlasch

Well alright. Box squats don't seem too hard. I will try them out.

Yeah I quit doing extensions because they hurt my knees. Just wondering if they hurt yours too.

Wow, well you got 3rd even after all that squatting. You should be proud of yourself!

How old are you?



Posted by: Rubes11

im proud to a point but im also pissed because i shouldnt have lost to that kid he wasnt as good as me. and i am 19

ahhh wrestling. I miss those days.

Focus HARD on your pull movements (rows, pulldowns and deadlifts), core strength, and grip strength and youll manhandle.

and nice pounds on the squats man! thats some hefty stuff.

wrestled for the first time in almost a month did pretty good im wrestling 189lbs tomorrow night and 171lbs on saturday current body weight 175lbs on the dot.


Damn son!

In my opinon, when you get to the 400lbs squat is when you are an accomplished lifter. And shit, you are already almost there. You have incredible leg strength. I hope you know that.

Wrestling in 189 weight class? Never seen you wrestle that heavy before. Think you can handle it?

i have a pretty strong core and i throw kids around alot when i wrstle them just for fun. its crazy right now because ive only had 1 day back in the last 6 weeks because i hurt my elbow and i didnt wrestle. 1-1 in the weight class above mine isnt to bad for tonight i supose. what weight did you wrestle?



Posted by: soxmuscle

Well done on your lifts, bud.

I wish I could play football again; I can't go to my younger brothers games because I want to get back on the field so badly Haha.

Well good on you man, some of the 189 kids can be freakin beasts. That and 72s or 71s or whatever they are I think are where the freakiest dudes are IMO.

I did 89s and wrestled up to 215s for a while. I miss it real bad, haha

football has been my life since i was in 4th grade if i didn't play i'd be lost. looks like im going to have to play in the military though because im joining the marines and i take my physical for them next week sometime i believe. i can't watch other games because i get so worked up from it.

im pretty big for even a 71 pounder i cut down to 60 for a couple of meets and the kids i wrestled looked like they were going to piss their pants when i walked out onto the mat. ill cut back down to 160 for distircts and stuff like that right now im fine with staying at 171 and being strong as hell.

you have a pad or something on your chest thats 2-4in high and bring the bar down to that point then press it back up. it'll help your body get used to higher weights and make your regular bench press numbers go up

you actually WANT to be sore? Isn't the goal to train as hard and efficient as you can WITHOUT getting sore, so you can do it again sooner?

BTW, my legs and my back and my ass are killing me from that workout yesterday, and no, I don't like it, it's just a product of doing singles work in the squat "briefs" for a while I guess, but then doing those 3 rep sets raw beat the crap out of me

EDIT: Cute girl btw

Posted by: katt

Great numbers there Rubes!!!

As far as the girl.... you know alot of them (girls) use that excuse way too often .... it's like a non-commitment thing.. leaving your hanging..... mind games, that kind of shit.

I always hated that - even with guys that wanted to date around... just freaking tell me, I won't mind.. it's not like you'll damage my ego or something...
