Funny I did something very similar on floor press to save myself if need be. Instead of those step up blocks by the cage, I used some blue upholstered pads the gym has floating around; the kind that used as a back support on a lot of machines. Do you do any meets? Ever think of joining a PL gym? |

Here's something: My raw numbers would have won 1st place in my weight class at the -09 Arnold Raw Comp. |

Those deads, the thing is, you stand there like a perfect "X" and then crank out deadlifts I've only ever seen fatass powerlifters (and I'm not hating on the fatass powerlifters, some of them are my bestest buddies) hammer out. Lifts like a powerlifter, looks like a bodybuilder... DAMN! |

HB is what happens when you train like a powerlifter, and eat like a bodybuilder. Powerbuilding. It's a superior way to train. |
There is no doubt about that.

... Being a PL training in a commercial gym has it's moments... Even squatting just 400-450, people often just stare/watch... Sometimes it's kind of annoying.

Huge weights. Intense workouts. Carry on. 
We request a vid....

In other news... I finally got that Inzer! Juggernaut and nkira bought it for me for my birthday, the sweeties. It gets its maiden voyage tonight... wish me luck! |
