Good w/o's Cowpimp. Don't sweat the 255 bench. Where did you have trouble with it?!? Your squats are very impressive, though I think you did go to heavy with the speed squat. Looking awesome in here!

I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain...

My bench stopped short almost exactly when the triceps take over. I would say just barely below the mid point. I definitely went too heavy with the squats, but I'm returning to the basics of the protocol on DE training next week. DeadBolt Arg... Cutting... Well, keep it up. I know you have the dedication to do what you set out to. The callisthenics are great. They don't take long, but they're killer. I'm going to start incorporating calf jumps on a regular basis too. They make my calves nice and sore the following day, although that will probably diminish as I adapt more to the training. squanto Stop stealing my crack pipe so I can continue to. BirtChik Imagine getting down on all fours, as though you were going to crawl. Put one leg out straight behind you. Push yourself up so the knee of the bent leg no longer touches the ground, only the foot of the straightened leg, and your two hands. Kick the bent leg out while simultaneously bringing the straight leg in. Once for each leg is considered one repetition. I can do a lot of them, but not while I'm still out of breath. I hope that explained it properly. It's a wonderful way to finish yourself off when you're already out of breath. Thanks for stopping in. Bench Press DE: Warm-up 5 minutes elliptical Bench Press - Alternating Grip 135 x 3 135 x 3 135 x 3 135 x 3 135 x 3 135 x 3 135 x 3 135 x 3 Lockouts 245 x 2 245 x 2 245 x 2 WG Chinups 25 x 5 25 x 5 25 x 5 Upright Rows 125 x 4 125 x 4 125 x 4 DB Overhead Extensions 75 x 4 75 x 3 75 x 2 Cool-down Upper body & core stretching My workout felt solid today. It wasn't perfect, but I can't complain. I decided to go with a more standard DE lifting style. This was 55% of my 1RM. I'm going to start over next week at 50% and wave up to 60% over the course of 4 weeks in 2.5% increments, as is suggested (60-70% for 2 reps for squat/DL day). Lockouts were good. I tried to match the point where I got stuck on 255 as the bottom of the lift as best I could remember. I figured that would make the most sense. I gained a repetition on chinups, and I increased the weight 10 pounds on upright rows at the expense of 2 repetitions. I overestimated the weight for overhead DB extensions, but I have something work for next time. In terms of extensions movements, that is definitely one of my favorites. Meal1 4 egg whites, 1 egg, 1/2 cup flax cereal, 1/2 cup 2% milk, 1 cup apple juice, 20G brewer's yeast, multivitamin/mineral, vitamin C, vitamin E Meal2 - PWO 1 cup oats, 2 scoops whey Meal3 2 slices WW bread, 2 TBS PB, 2 scoops egg protein, cucumber Meal4 trioplex bar Meal5 can tuna, 2oz chicken breast, 2 TBS safflower mayo, 1 1/2 WW pitas, celery Meal6 tin sardines, 3oz chicken breast, 6oz sweet potato, 20G olive oil dressing & flax seed, lettuce, tomato Snack 1 cup 2% milk, 1 scoop whey Snack spoon PB Meal7 1 cup 2% cottage cheese, spoon PB |

Looks like a good w/o, but could you have gone heavier on lockouts?

Solid workout. Since I have never seen the dynamic lifts done, how fast do you push it up on the 3 reps? Is it controlled down and fast as you can up?

You bastard! Don't toy with us like that... rock4832 I probably could have gone heavier, but I am just taking the advice that SF gave me at one time. Basically, he said take the weight you failed on, drop it by 10 pounds or so, and do lockouts at that weight. I may incorporate lockouts as an ME lift at some point, and then I will go as heavy as possible. I try to avoid doing singles on anything but the ME lift to give my CNS a break. BigDyl I definitely make the eccentric motion controlled; I pause on the chest for 1-2 seconds to try and minimize the effect of the myotatic stretch reflex; I explode as fast as I possibly can on the concentric portion of the lift. |

Makes sense. He told me to incorporate the lockouts on DE bench day and break the reps and sets up as I saw fit. Just make sure they equal out to 20-25 reps total. What do you think about fitting Jerk and clean into ME day?

I will definitely consider doing cleans on ME day, but I'm not comfortable enough with form yet. I did include it in one DE workout as the speed lift. I think I'll keep it there until I really feel comfortable with it. In fact, I might do an olympic routine at some point. Olympic lifts are great. BirtChick No problem, but now you have to make a video of you doing them. Make sure the camera is angled so we can ensure proper glut activation... |

Squat/Deadlift ME:
Warm-up 5 minutes elliptical Sumo Deadlifts 235 x 3 255 x 3 275 x 3 295 x 3 315 x 1 335 x 1 365 x Miss 355 x 1 Good Mornings 205 x 5 205 x 5 205 x 5 Hyperextensions 90 x 10 90 x 10 90 x 10 Decline Situps 65 x 10 65 x 10 65 x 8 Leg Press 390 x 8 390 x 8 390 x 8 Cool-down Lower body & core stretching Although I missed my new PR attempt, I had a really awesome workout. Good mornings felt really solid. Usually there is a repetition or two with good mornings where I feel I don't use enough ROM or something of the sort, but every repetition felt really good. I succeeded on maintaining a cleaner 10 repetitions of hyperextensions. I got very close to hitting 10 reps on all the sets of decline situps. As well, the leg press got a nice 2 repetition increase. Basically, everything but my ME attempt looked good. My lower back still appears to be my weakness, but I think that will come up in time. 365 was freaking glued to the floor. Hyperextensions every squat/deadlift workout and good mornings as a frequent ME exercise should help remedy the situation. My triceps are still sore from Saturday. I think those extensions really did a number of them. Now, my lower back and quads are really sore. The lower back soreness tells me I'm headed in the right direction. The soreness is great. Call me a sadist, but I enjoy the soreness.
