For 5 days a week, I would go with your normal diet spread out over 5 or 6 meals/day. On days 7 and 8, I would load up on complex carbs.

I wish i was speed benching 205 i still cant get over how much you mill press Pete. Why do you do them? I mean i know that Dave tate always says to not do much direct delt work maybe laterals.

PeteTheGreek · 08-21-2007, 10:13 PM

If you look at my form in my bench shirt, you'll see that I bring the bar very low over my belly with my elbows tucked in to the sides. Without strong delts, my wrists would end up rolling forward and I would dump the bar on my belly. I had several incidents where I was dumping the bar on my belly. Ever since I started doing front overhead pressing, I haven't dumped the bar.

Hey Pete what would i have to be squating benching and deadlifitng to be decent at 170?

PeteTheGreek · 08-26-2007, 06:01 PM

To give you an idea, here are the classification standards for the 165 weight class:

Men's Classifications:

Class 165

Elite 1580
Master 1450
Classs_I 1310
Class_II 1132
Class_III 995
Class_IV 868

You would need 575-430-575 to total Elite. I'm about 50 lbs away from Elite in my weight class

Brutus_G · 08-26-2007, 06:33 PM

I think i could get class 4 lol . My god is the elite without gear?

Obviously impressive, but that is considered to parallel in powerlifting? I thought the top of the thighs had to be parallel to the floor.
