Good looking workouts in here. Glad somebody has been consistent while I've been slacking.
 
Like jag said heavy rows, are you doing them from a dead stop position each rep or just keeping constant tension on and are you using straps?

Doing it from a dead stop, I believe, is called Pendlay Rows. I do them with continuous motion, bending 45 degrees at the waist, knees slightly bent.

I could usually hold 225 lbs without straps but that day I did use them. :shrug:

Don't you fucking hate that? Next time you see him, go next to him and load up the next squat rack with 3 plates on each side, make sure he is looking, act like your warming up and then just leave. :roflmao:

Strong! :bow:
 
Not done shrugs for a long time, rely on deadlifts to hit my traps

I found that some low rep extra heavy shrugs, made my lockout on deads better.

X once again journal is looking awesome. Can see that now that your eating your strength is going up. :winkfinger:
 
Thanks guys!

For me, I found that full range of motion works best when doing shrugs. I can do a lot more weight but not getting the full range of motion does nothing for me. :shrug:
