BPS: What are you made of?

FireTitan said:
So happy to have you in here! Now just get your counterpart to join! Id say 90 lbs on the deaders, and yes, bodyweight for the pullups. But as I said, they dont have to be straight through,just complete 10. This is for time. And you have until Midnight of Monday!!

Thanks! Not sure I'll be able to pull off all 10 of those but I'll give it my best on Friday.
 
No I know I don't but I don't think I could get 10 bw period! Haha

I haven't been able to do many at bw for a while.
 
We just wanna see you guys pushing yourself ! Throw up the vid whatever you can do and try it again in a couple weeks and see how much you've improved !!

exactly what stew said- whole point is just pushing yourself- you get 5 that is 5 more than you just did. just getting the nerve to post it, well get over it. anyone who is going to judge someones performance (unless its absolutley laughable- had to put that there) aint happen here. BPS loves its customers and the guys firettian and Alpha1agreda are doing a great job putting this together and getting all of us motivated.
 
FireTitan and Alpha1agreda; I mentor at-risk teens and might submit vids of some of these guys if they wanted to try the comp... they're not AM members but would it be cool if I submitted on their behalf? Like would they be eligible to win sh1t?
 
Thanks guys! You are all awesome!

imho- this is me, mentoring is one of the greatest things you can do, helping others who need it, is awesome. if they allow it and you get some of them on here and a re post of them again beating the original number- you have a bps product of your choice on me.
BPS if you guys are cool with this, i am all in

Unfortunately 18 and a member is the rules of the board. And in all honesty, im not sure what to say about even posting. If theyre minors, I don't think I can technically post pictures/videos of minors without the written permission of their legal guardian. Let me do some checking in that and make sure. Dont want BPS, you or Alpha and I getting into any trouble. On the other hand, I respect that work you do and am so glad people like you can and will do it, and I like you getting them involved with a positive environment!! Kudos!
 
I'm going to have to try again Sunday or Monday. I tried today and was dead around rep 36 on the deadlifts. I'll have to split them up differently next time.

Im going to do some checking.I am in complete agreement with you. Please do not think that I am trying to be the bad guy, but being that they are minors I do have to check on the legality. I think the job that he is doing is incredible and I thank you for your offer. Believe me, if there's a way I can make this happen I will

I'm their legal guardian.. I'm the program director of a youth ranch and the guys that will be doing it are my clients/residents.

Lol I don't want them posting or knowing that run gear so I'd essentially be submitting the vids on their behalf and will let them know if they won. (I don't think any of them will win).

These guys use to do drugs and chase chicks and all sorts of crazy sh1t.. I've been getting them into lifting and buy them protein, preworkouts, etc cause I've got a theory that it can replace the addiction. Anyway, the comp would motivate them which is why I asked. Let me know what y'all think.

I like the idea but under 18 is a no-go. None of BPS products are for under 18 use. If it's known that these kids are under age and BPS sends them products, BPS could face severe legal problems. I'm sure I can speak for all of us on AM that we don't want that to happen. Now, depending on how soon BPS comes out with their new PRE, that would possibly be something that would be available.

In all honesty, if they've just only started lifting, protein, fish oil and creatine are the only supplements I would recommend at this point.

mmorso this is EXACTLY what I was fixing to say as far their age and BPS products. I admire what you're doing, and wish there was more I can do, but this is out of my hands. Im still waiting on an answer from my boss as far as them even having their video posted, and as soon as I know, Ill pass it along to you Sir!

I was thinking androcrine would be alright.. but completely understand.
 
Sorry I missed this fellas, mmorso , thanks for what you do I think it's awesome . Wish there was more we could do but to reiterate unfortunately the age will hold us back plus being a member on here is one of the requirements . You know we would help out if we were able to

Yeah its an awesome idea but the products are 18+. mmorso maybe do your own type of contest? Win a tub of a pwo or something?

Even though everyone on here has the best intentions you better cross your T's and dot your I's. That is the world we live in.

I did a full back work out:
5 sets of deads
5 sets of bent over rows
3 sets of lat Pull down
4 sets of seated cable rows
*was super angry and lost count, just wanted to move the weights until my partner tapped out
DB rows super setted with Pull ups
Shrugs super setted with rack pulls

I'll honest deadlifts are a weak point for me. Weighted Pull ups are easy, Pull ups in general have been easy for me. I remember being able to hit almost 50 Pull ups straight, shoot that was 30lbs ago as well.

I'm in a similar boat as you; I rarely ever deadlift, but love doing weighted pull ups. How much weight do you usually add for pull ups?

I've used 2 chains before not sure on the weight of that? But also used 50lbs before. I can probably do more but My bicep starts to hate me. What about you?

2 chains feels a bit lighter than 50lbs on a belt IMO, but maybe that's because the belt weighs a pound or two, or maybe it's the weight distribution, or the chains are just somewhere between 20-25lbs, haha. I normally do between 25-45lbs wide-grip, and I always use a thumbless/hook grip on pull ups (and most pulling motions), since I want to really focus on pulling with my lats, not my biceps. I think I did 4 chin ups with 90lbs the other day just for fun. I'm pretty light though.

I plateaued on my deads for like 6 months then started doing deficit deads 2x a week. My deadlift went up 90lbs in about 5 wks.. I was on cycle though.

Lately I'm rocking Reeves deadlifts after I do my normal deads, then go into bentover rows... my backs been growing with that routine. I love back day...
