Beelze training log

Just do a search for PNF stretching (proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation). It shows more promise.

But it hurts more.
I'm certified in this.. :study:

you do WSB?

Yep. Invalid Link Removed

I'm going to start keeping a log soon, in the AX section since I'm testing a product for them. But I will be training westside.
 
awesome. if you have any good articles on it, start a thread on it in the pl'ing section. i'm sure lcsulla will sticky it. we need more training variation here. ;)

it's true, i just take cold showers to 'shock' the body into growth. then i tell each bodypart riddles to trick them into more growth. gotta trick your body to grow :rolleyes: tell it knock-knock jokes and such.......

:rofl: Ok, that one made me laugh out loud. Finally the secrets for getting big have been revealed to me!

damn nice job there, only seen a couple guys leg press over a thousand for that many reps.

and you ever try glut ham raises?
 
nope. never heard of em. my 3 ham movements are SLDL, lying leg curls, and seated hammer leg curls. glutes get worked on every pressing movement, hacks, parallel squats, and leg press. on hacks and leg press, my feet are placed on the tip top portion of the platform to place more emphasis on glutes/hammies.
 
wow, they are probably the best glute and ham excersize out there. they are a staple in any plers training, plus they're fun. :)

here's a link to 3 variaties, the first is the hardest. if they dont like the link to another site on here just delete it off after you get the link.

oh and the traditional ghr is the middle one, but you stop when your body is parallel to the floor, and the bar behind the back is optional.
 
Beelzebub said:
thanks for the vid though. at least i know what that thing is for next time i see it, lol.

haha yea no problem, and that's none other than exmgq filming that, and the guy in the red shirt is going to the wpo finals at the arnold for the 220's, supposively him and travis mash are neck and neck on their lifts and good friends to boot.
 
you should, he trains me and is one of the nicest guys i know, i'll be hanging out with him at the arnold in the wpo warmup section, i'm going to see all the wpo monsters in full force. i cant wait

i don't believe our gym has that little doo-hickey. our old gym did though.

Glen and I do GHRs on a seated calve machine with a bunch of plates loaded on so we don't break our faces going forward. The seated calve machine needs to have a wider base to get your knees on it-which not all do.

Although it's not as difficult as using the realGHR machine (I'd say about 75-80% as tough), most people who have been training for some time will still have difficulty doing one rep with the full range of motion the first time on even the seated calve machine.

I'm not kidding though when I say no single exercise has helped my deadlift or squat more. It makes SL deads seem like a walk in the park. Once I get the money and the space I'm purchasing a GHR for my home/apt.
 
yeah what ivydude said .. give them a whirl if you can beelze they rock .. and by rock i mean they are painful as ****

Yeah, I use straps too but I am definitely no PL'er..And Beezlebub, I hate you for those two quotes..Rehab?If this is what you do for rehab, I seriously need to reinjure myself..:blink:
 
i'd like to use straps but i'm hearing from all the big boys that they end up being a hindrance, so **** em. so far, it's going well. lol, the rehab is coming along nicely. once you see a little smiley beside the chest #'s, you'll know things are back to normal ;) ETA: 2 weeks or less.
 
pfffft!
Chest, Shoulders, Bis, Back?

what is this sugarpoopie, some type of DC training? pissshaawww

I still need to fully read and digest the info you sent me Beelze. I'm still doing my 5 day split. :oops:

I really need to get back to my stretching too god damn it.

Nice PR on the deads bro. :D
 
Yeah, I could definitely see straps being an obstacle for a PL'er down the road once you start increasing and increasing your deads..I do them 100% for myofibrillar h-trophy, so I need the straps to keep my form and put some slabs of meat on my skinny ass back..Keep up the good work Beezlebub
 
Hey Beelzebub, I am motiv8er's little brother. I was looking at your DLing numbers. I was wondering. At 19, and 245 lbs, if I deadlift 360 lbs for three reps, what do normal kids my age lift? and does it help that I am 6'6"?

EDIT: I meant at like PL'ers meets and what not :)

6'6" would be more of a hindrance than a help IMO. either way, at 19 y/o, 360 x 3 ain't nuttin to be ashamed of. i'd put you maxing around 405 or so. my training partner just turned 21 and after 2 months of deadlifting my way, he's getting 2 sets of 405 x 8.

Haha..One look at my avatar and you can see why..:blink:

just because you're small now doesnt mean you cant get bigger, just eat more and train smart. anyone can grow, just have to do it right.
 
Ubiquitous said:
I'm sorry bro.. I think of you and the word "BI" always conjures up. :D

Don't let the big softy fool you. He's a "meat" eater through and through. There isn't a "straight" bone in his body.

Beelz where do I sign up :cool: ?


Hey just curious what was he deadlifting before?
 
I believe it!

I will tell you this bro, after reading that thread on Deadlifting in which you and a few others were advocating letting the reps fall where they may vs. following a strict deadlift repscheme my max has gone up almost 80lbs in ~ 3 weeks. I like that all of these training logs have been popping up lately, good to see such an emphasis on training / progression. Keep up the good work!
 
675 x 5 on rack deads? **** man that's nuts! well done buddy very well done indeed .. i've got a tad bit of catching up to do
 
bigcasino, thanks brutha. glad you took some advice from that thread. it's a lot of simple **** that guys just don't think of. overthinking the situation, lol. imagine that, powerlifters.......overthinking.

bro, i have never seen such an improvement in overall back development since i added rack deads to the routine. it's helping my lockout bigtime on full range deads as well.
