    Herder's 2014 Log: All About the XPC Semi's

    Technique wise, it's extremely easy. You do them RKC style I presume?

    Tossing Weight With Torobestia: Powerlifting Log

    Hmm, I guess when I look at it on my computer it doesn't seem that terrible. Still think there's something going on there besides my shoulder, though maybe it's all related back to the shoulder http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=apc1p9mSgSc These didn't feel that bad all said and done, though. I...

    Sweetlou's training log

    Nice work. Block deadlifts can be rough, though they are a bit easier than rack pulls. My 2" block deadlift is actually well below my floor deadlift, haha.

    14/03/26 UPPER Simple 6, extra t-spine rolls, neck and trap stretches. I figured out that when I do the posterior capsule stretch on the Simple 6, it's important to keep my opposite leg straight as it really makes the stretch challenging (in a good way) SWISS sOHP 45-10,8 95-5 115-4x3 <-- 60...

    Tossing Weight With Torobestia: Powerlifting Log

    Ah damn, I forgot about the bicep thing, man. I did it today, even though honestly swiss bar OHP hasn't bothered me at all in a while. I'll try to remember it next bench day and see how it affects things. Busy agenda = :) :) :). Nah, well, there was a lot of the usual, but it also happened to...

    swings are also a nice activation drill to do before deadlifts and goodmornings as well. It's a great, easy movement

    Sean's Powerlifting Journey

    You should have led with this statement. You probably got Sean all hot and bothered for nothing.

    Tossing Weight With Torobestia: Powerlifting Log

    Welcome, friend. Sadly, the last few pages of this log have been rather tragic, but I hope my wheels catch some traction and things take off soon enough.

    If a quote's about keeping it real, you better bet it's from Jim Wendler!

    Tossing Weight With Torobestia: Powerlifting Log

    Thanks. Yeah, in that time off from benching, when I got back I didn't realize this but I was trying too hard to break the bar by torquing at the elbows. It works so much better to focus on the hands/wrists and let the rest fall into place.

    Dumbbell chest press with wrong angle

    Do your shoulders hurt if you use a smaller angle? Changing the angle is going to change the load from your triceps (and maybe your lats) to your chest. I doubt the load on your shoulder is decreased by much if at all. As long as you don't go so deep that your shoulders roll forward at the...

    Ace's training log

    Man, you may not have the chest hair to show for it, but that leg workout looks like it took a lot of chest hair to complete. Nicely done I don't actually see any questions here or in your last post regarding the SSB, just statements, so I can only guess as to what your question actually is...

    the napalm detroit barbell experience...

    BTW who of the old guard of steroid-dosing bodybuilders died young? Nobody has. Even Frank Zane is still kicking after all the chemicals he put in his body. That Egyptian guy? Well, blame that on any combination of bad gear, insulin and HGH abuse, and highly questionable peptide use. That can...

    Country Gets HUGE with 5-3-1, Erase and DAA.

    I would get some X-rays to verify you don't have any spinal conditions contributing to your issue. If any abnormalities are present I would obviously follow that up and not do anything until those are handled. If that is not the case, then proceed. I think you have patellar tendonitis, which...
