  1. German Volume Training

    Yeah, that's how I felt after the 9th set. I wanted to walk away so badly but stuck it out. Not sure I'll be adding weight any time soon.
  2. German Volume Training

    Did you add weight as you progressed or just slow down the tempo?
  3. German Volume Training

    Thanks. I did overhand (not alternate) dead lifts with 135(total including bar) yesterday morning with no more than 60 seconds rest for 10x10 and it wiped me out the rest of the day. This evening I did 10x10 dips and 5x10 underhand pullups and I'm shot. I'll be interested to see your progress...
  4. German Volume Training

    Anyone try dips for 10x10?
  5. My Routine - Your thoughts on it? CHEERS

    Dead lifts+food=bigger and fitter.
  6. Crossfitters??

    OP, to answer your question 1.5 x bodyweight seems excessive. Heck, even 1x bodyweight combined with the other high intensity exercises (running in between) can pose a big risk, especially if you don't have a bit of dead lift experience under your belt. I don't do cross fit type classes or...

  8. Any bike riders? Bike recommendations? Not stationary!

    I mountain bike raced and criterium raced (a form of pack racing on road bikes) for years. Added inches to my calves and thighs because the duration was short but intensity was high, especially mountain bike. My only advice would be to get your bike fitted by a qualified bike shop and if you're...
  9. German Volume Training

    Are the squats supposed to leave you exhausted several hours later? I will admit this was my first "session" of 10x10 and it was pretty tough. Not as intense as doing say, 4-6 reps at 90% but just seemed to wipe me out the rest of the day..
  10. When do you do legs?

    Dead lifts once every 5 days and Squats every 7.
  11. German Volume Training

    Just did trap bar deads 10x10 with 185 and my back/legs are shot!
  12. Cut or continue "bulk"?

    Thanks. I think I'll keep eating the same and just add 10-15 minutes of cardio at the end of each lifting session. And cut out the beer!
  13. Cut or continue "bulk"?

    Funny thing is I can see my top 2 abs and some of my obliques. Just wondering if there is any benefit to cutting and then going back to another "bulk"
  14. Cut or continue "bulk"?

    So maybe I should start adding a bit of cardio..

  16. GVT - P/RR/S Programs - What do you think?

    How is gvt for say chest or biceps? Both are lagging for me.
  17. Deadlift PR

    My best work is in the AM, too. I started doing more squats and more SLDL which helped increase my deads.

  19. Article: NAACP Joins Fight Against NY Soda Ban

    This country is turning into a nanny-state. I rarely, if ever, drink soda but a ban is just more government intrusion.
