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

    Its hard to explain the conditioning requirements of a meet, but I always drive home thinking I need to prepare my system better for the experience.

    KLEEN - STRONG BODY STRONG MIND!

    I'm with Hyde, it's probably not training related as much as it is some small neglected muscle that is holding you back. Once it develops, you'll be setting PRs.

    It's not even accessories, it's the main movement. We can get to his top weight and done in 20-30min. The crew I used to train with on Saturday, it would be up over an hour. The accessories are the same, not in a hurry, but it moves.

    Hyde Puts Hercules to Task

    Sure, you could alternate bands and straight weight or maybe alternate speed and volume cycles or whatever you feel. The judging was very strict on that 584. I can see where in the lift the judges make their calls, according to rulebook, but that's simply not enough to call on in my opinion...

    2016 NFL Thread

    I much prefer the college game to NFL. I enjoyed watching Dak play at MSU. Dominant, exciting, gifted. But you know when you see it, not an NFL QB. Other guys, (Paxton Lynch comes to mind from this past year), you see three plays and you know that he has gifts that give him the chance to do...

    Powerlifting Training Log and Stuff

    Just saw this one or I would have condensed my posts into one. IMO This depends on the exercise. Lets give triceps as an example. For JM presses, sets of 3, 5, 8, 10, 12 work. Maybe even more, but I haven't tried it. For cross body cable pushdowns, you're looking at 15, 20, 25, 30, 50 reps...

    Powerlifting Training Log and Stuff

    I like Jared's answer. Another is to push them balls out for PRe every week and when you can't PR, switch. Some people enjoy switching up, either often or just on occasion. Myself, I know what area I need to hit and the sets and reps and which exercises lend themselves best to that scheme and...

    Hyde Puts Hercules to Task

    Bench looked great dude! Solid PR and with some more building on the bottom end, you'll be in good shape. Are you a grinding type lifter in all of your lifts? I'm wondering if speed work and long pauses might be your ticket to 350. I don't think you're very far from that, you're riding a good...

    USPA qualifying

    Nice numbers! I feel you on the cycle of doing local meets and wanting to up the competition. You can absolutely qualify for individual lifts. The USPA is having 2017 bench press and deadlift championships and my favorite meet director is running them. They'll likely be held in Pittsburgh. As...

    Entry is finally in the mail. I missed training yesterday seeing a friend off before a month long cross country trip. I might get to train today, but I'm moving my brother into school. So we'll see.
