    Hyde Puts Hercules to Task

    I wear my sleeves for the entire workout. On test days I wear them until my top set, and at meets I wear them until it's time to step on the platform. Even on days they feel good. Even if they feel good for a month! Elbows are so finicky.

    What should I do to get ready for Highland games?

    Look for Matt Vincent's throwing lab ebook and you'll have technical advice on the events. He also has a training lab ebook which might help with programming for it or might be a General programming thing, I dunno.

    Hyde Puts Hercules to Task

    That's awesome that the product is healing you up so much! But please don't tempt fate by doing triceps without your cuffs! It's really not worth it. I skipped heavy extensions until I got my sleeves, might as well enjoy the blessing but keep paying down on your insurance, if you know what I mean.

    Bench test Work up 315X2 365X1 395x1 410X1 PR. Back cramp from hell so my spotter touched the bar. He definitely didn't rip it off of me lol it was a brutal fight to the finish. Lets just call it three whites in the gym all day, three reds on the platform all day. It's not a huge deal, 410 puts...

    I feel bad for animals now, too. I feel especially bad that no animal will ever have the honor of gracing the plate of DLB

    Sean's Powerlifting Journey

    I thought my form would go in the toilet with the higher reps, too. But I think being a speedy lifter, I seem to gain faster hitting reps. I think the doubles and the peaking reinforces form well enough.

    KLEEN - STRONG BODY STRONG MIND!

    Awesome stuff. That's my favorite set and rep scheme for building the deadlift, and working 5x3 at 475 was pretty much my exact routine for 600. If it helps you get in better position, you can wear the belt up on your ribs for the deadlift. I put mine just below my xyphoid process. Very high in...

    It depends, but usually 4 or 5 times a year. A couple years ago we built a house down there, so we went a little more often. Apparently there might be another house to build this winter down there. It's too early to tell, though.

    Right!? I thought about going straight to 6. But 585 embarrassed me. Didn't even break the floor. I'm not mad about it. It was a very welcome payoff to the misery that this month of working on sumo was for me.

    Hyde Puts Hercules to Task

    Finally in! I saw in the beginning you said your back was hindering your lower body lifts, but it looks to me like they're going as well as ever! I definitely agree with taking it slow with the back, but you're close to a big total PR whenever you decide to take the jump up from the base you've...
