gphagan1 replied to the thread Slicin' and Dicin'.Exactly, that’s a great example you’re setting…been battling the knee issue all this year, and then turn in a great leg day like that, and putting over 321 lbs on the bar already, is an even... -
we're excited about that! I've been grooming him... we talk a lot about it and I show him parcels of land. I told him to consider the paycheck house. buy a couple acres and live in a trailer like...

wild to think he's got 405lbs on his back and a beard and yesterday he was pushing this around

gphagan1 replied to the thread Slicin' and Dicin'.Yeah man they grow so fast….. just wait until you have Grandkids. It feels like they grow even faster the older we get….but man it’s fun. What a blessing, you get to train with him while he’s just...

gphagan1 replied to the thread Slicin' and Dicin'.That’s awesome, he’s got good form and going deep. With more and more practice he’ll be hitting upper 400s and beyond.💪😎

not a single 55 was used in the filming of this video.

Since I can't post the video. He has 445 I think, but he doesn't not have the skills to handle 405 on his back. His legs are much stronger than 405, but he can't man handle it out of the rack...

I'm more likely to get in trouble for something that happened in a dream or not at all. I'm fortunate that my wife tells me she has the memory of a squirrel. Our curse is that I'M THE ONE with... -

I think i told you guys before but my first oly meet I hit the cleanest snatch I've ever had on my opening lift. I was like damn that was light! then I realized I opened up with a low training...

we don't have them at this gym but yes historically that was rough haha. what we do have is the ez bars and what we used to call "trainer bars" which do not have weights stamped on the sleeves so...

gphagan1 replied to the thread GP’s Old Man With A Plan Log.So I bet the 55 lbs bars really throw you for a loop.😂
-
all the ones at our local gyms are proportionately larger than the 45s to match a 45+10 on the bar so they take up the same space and THEY DONT GYM MATH everyone knows that 2x 55s isn't a...

Bro 55s are awesome; they save space AND time. Plus they’re the perfect weight for front delt raises, curl pump up, and you end up getting stronger because they make the weights look smaller.

gphagan1 replied to the thread GP’s Old Man With A Plan Log.I know absolutely, and she was giving it her all. I am glad I said something and didn’t just load both of them and she gets folded up because it’s over twice what she normally does. 😬

That is true newbie status, not noticing the numbers or the massive feeling difference

tread lightly padawn, this is a master jedi level skill that requires incredible execution for it to work in your favor. took me about 25 years to learn how to tell a girl she's fat and have her... -
I don't know man, the volume on the 405 rack pulls and the triple at 285 seem pretty solid!

gphagan1 replied to the thread GP’s Old Man With A Plan Log.We have a Star Trac leg press too, and I actually like it a lot. Funny story I forgot to share a couple weeks ago. So we have a couple 100 lbs plates on one of the racks on the leg press, and I...

plus knowing her I think she will completely destroy the house in the first month as she declutters our entire life, re-organizes everything, then start to get bored and end up working with some...

saw a reel the other day that said something like the secret is biting off more than you can chew then learning how to chew it and that resonated for me. I'm not sure if we have a "solid plan" but...

Congrats man, clearly you and her have worked hard to earn this moment!
