Awesome w/o's Brother JD, your rippin it up my Friend!!! Best wishes to you!!!

Niiiiiiice. Are you trying to hit 225 x 10 on the Incline?
Not bad for an old man huh? I saw your 295 x 2 incline 2 minutes ago and the 765 rack pull. Holy smokes!Nice incline strength dude! Your workouts are still looking good, even though I haven't been around lately.
Totally happy with 225 x 8 for now. Honestly I am just trying to maintain strength while I cut. So far, so good. I actually gained weight last week, but am back on track this week.

Very happy with this. Knee is holding up fine so far. Funny, a guy was squatting next to me, and worked up to 365 x 5. He was struttin' around the gym, with ILS (imaginary lat syndome) and looking like he had a stick shoved up his ass. Amazing part is he was doing 1/4 reps and thinking he was a stud. Not impressed asshole

I on the other hand, may not be ATG but I am well below parallel. On this board EVERYONE squats to at least parallel. In my gym, 1/4 squats seem to be the rule, not the exception

Haven't done Olympic bar curls lately because in warmups, my left elbow felt uncomfortable. Today it felt good, so I opted for the bar instead of DB's.

AWESOME w/o Brother JD!!! I hear ya, we have a TON of people who "THINK" they are the baddest and biggest to ever walk into a gym, and if they really did a true squat they would prolly crap themselves and drop the weight and run!!!

I think it's that way in most gyms. People don't go past 1/4 way down because if there's too much weight on the bar, they won't be able to get up.
My other favorite are the 'grunters and screamers'. I grunt on occasion and understand a scream on a max attempt. But some guys do that as a matter of course. Hilarious to witness.
Exactly. I did see a guy just today setting up with 365 and I thought, here we go again. Much to my surprise he did 6 quality reps. I almost went up and congratulated him

How were your chest and shoulders feeling after this one? I'd be sore as MOFO....
Ah, you know how those multi-pulley machines are. 120 is the number on the stack, but all of these machines are different.Felt strong today. Good sign.
Thanks DD
Strangely...no. I'm one of those people who rarely have DOMS. Only if I haven't done something in awhile, or after a layoff.

385 came up slow. I am just not a natural deadlifter. What made me feel better though, two brothers half my age were DL'ing beside me. Both of these guys do 365 for REPS on the bench. They were struggling with 275 for 5 reps DL.

Excellent w/o's BRother JD, I'm with you my Friend in regards to not a natural, I am pathetic though in the Deadlift department!!!
I remember starting back on deads I couldnt hardly do 225 for 5 reps. But it seemed like my deads just jumped right up to 335 for 10 reps in no time.....you will be just fine JD, just keep pluggin along!
I would love to have your power brotha!
I appreciate the encouragement mayun!
