hey scar - when you're doing hang cleans... you clean the weight, hang it, then do you let it back down on to the front of your shoulders/chest? or do you just go straight down to the floor with it?

Good luck with the job, would be cool to work out door. Also, you can steel different metals to make 'bling' teeth with...

thanks Sir Goob. I am not feeling them in my traps today as bad as I am feeling them in my quads...or that could be from the squats too.

job interview seemed to go well, they seem like a pretty laid back group of people which is awesome. as far as the gold, I was wrong, not at this particular mine. here it is zinc and lead...not so cool to make bling teeth, lol.

Very best of luck with your job interview - third time lucky eh??

thanks Sam. I am somewhat happy with them, although just 2 months ago I was squatting around 190-195 for 5 reps.

I am hoping it will be the lucky third time!!

btw, how tall are you and what do you weight? we're doing about the same weight on a lot of stuff, so i'm just curious.

thanks man. yeah my loss of concentration, even only for a split second, was almost enough to put me on my ass!

I am 5'6" and I'd say around 140lbs. my goal is like yours - to get bigger. in the long run, my goal is to only be around 150-155lbs, but around 10% bodyfat.

lol, yeah these people are crazy!

thanks OH. worst body to have sore...I'd say either my hams/glutes or my abs. a day after a hard ab/deadlift day it hurts to walk up stairs or laugh!

when I do hang cleans, I start off in a position like the final position of a deadlift, off the ground by my quads. I then clean it, and then let it back down to my quads. at least that is what I've always thought a hang clean was.

something like this...but no where near the same weight!

lol.

boog.

Scarface30 · 04-23-2008, 02:22 PM

so today was supposed to be a workout day, but it is really tough when one of the 2 main exam areas is your gym. the weight room is right beside 4 or 5 basketball and volleyball courts, so they set up, oh...750+ tables in there during exam time, and you obviously can't lift weights when exams are in progress, and today I also had an exam but the only available time to lift was from 5:30-6:30, and by the time I came home and got something to eat, it was too late. so I'll go tomorrow - no biggy I guess.

woah. i'm 5'5'', and 140 right now. my goal is to get up to 150 and cut down to 10ish %. we should continue comparing notes as we progress, bro

I should try hang-cleans some time. I've never tried them, nor have I ever seen anyone do them at our gym..

But now our "world gym" name is going away and it's some fucking "health & wellness" name...

Scarface30 · 04-23-2008, 08:32 PM

there is so much hostility in here...maybe this will calm things down

that's the best I could do for ya goob! lol

hang cleans are definitely something to try if you haven't done them before. word to the wise though, if you don't have flexible wrists, high reps hurt!
