    Sean's Powerlifting Journey

    Looks like you're a pretty experienced dude. Everyone seems to be on the Cube lately; one of these days, I'm gonna have to order Lilly's book and find out what all the fuss is about. Anyway, stopped by because you posted in my log and wanted to see what you were all about. Didn't read your...

    Stronger Than the Day Before

    Thanks man. As I sit here and eat my PB&J, I realize how little I am looking forward to my next cut. Oh well. Got another month of maintenance... which for me almost means eating whatever I want. For those interested, when I do my cutting microcycles, I do NOT count macros. I cut out...

    Stronger Than the Day Before

    Alright, got some video today, and boy is my squat ugly. I get down low enough, but I fold like a ****in' wet napkin. Bar comes forward a bit too. Oh well, need more ab work. Warmed up, hit 135 - 315 with high bar, switched to low bar, hit 345, and then 365. 365 felt like a grind because it...

    Reds91's Training log

    You are very consistent. I used to have shoulder problems too. I found that doing some weighted broomstick presses (light - you only need about 45 pounds), band presses, and light pressing for high reps for a few weeks strengthened my stabilizers and rotator cuff muscles enough to ease the...

    Stronger Than the Day Before

    Today was bench/chinup day. Weight on the scale this morning was 214. Don't think I gained 2 pounds in a day, so I'm attributing it to high glycogen/water retention from a high carb/fat/sodium day yesterday. Chinups between bench sets are full extension, deliberate on the eccentric and...

    Stronger Than the Day Before

    My name is Don and I train with in a raw powerlifting style. I have my first competition coming up in April. I am currently running microcycles where I will cut weight for a while, maintain and do a strength cycle, and then cut weight some more. I would like to lift in the 198 lb. class. I...

    Hello! New to the forums.

    Thanks for the welcome guys. My back is fine, I just want to focus on squats with a smolov-esque program because I feel it is too far from my deadlift. I use roughly the same muscles for both, and I'll get a heavy weight in my hands every once in a while so I don't forget how it feels. I...

    Traditional AAS not an option; best strength stack?

    Thanks for the replies gentlemen! I'll have to give the cycle some thought.

    Hello! New to the forums.

    How's it going? Some of the other boards I post on are pretty dead, hoping that won't be the case here ;) My name's Don, I'm 6'1", 25 y.o., and 212 lbs. I got into powerlifting while I was in the sandbox, and I'm looking to compete in my first PL comp next April (hopefully at 198). Current...

    Traditional AAS not an option; best strength stack?

    Thanks for the replies gents. Yeah, Steve wouldn't be too keen on getting into what he does for a living. At any rate, I'm not worried about the drug testing so much as doing anything actually illegal, as anything blatantly against the law would mean I'd lose my job among other things. The...

    Traditional AAS not an option; best strength stack?

    Hello, Here's a scenario: Imagine you had a friend... we'll call him "Dim...", uh, "Steve". Steve has a job in which drug tests/polygraphs are routine. So, traditional AAS use is out. Now, grey market chems or PH use is not necessarily a problem. Since Steve needs to be careful, and PHs...
