i have and wide, idk. just didnt like the feel of them i guess.

I like a little wider than shoulder width toes outward a little, I tried narrow with toes straight forward and was like 10x harder for me to keep my balance and i always felt a weird feeling in my hip. Some guys in my gym preach that close stance "light weight" will be the best but initially when i started squatting heavy with a little wider stance i saw results. Take gym advice with a grain of salt, some of these guys who give me "advice" are on cycles which they never say. It's starting to piss me off that they give advice but yet their on anavar/test etc. (People tell me who are friends with them)

**I wasn't referring to you in any way as well, just a little rant about some guys in my gym**

Yeah same here besides a natty t-booster, From now on i'm gonna training instinctual. It's the best way honestly if something doesn't feel right i'll usually back off.
 
mdpwrlifter said:
Yeah definitely. I might try t boost. Not sure.

I'll let you know if TestoPRO goes well, give you an idea of stuff out there. Nothin' beats heavy liftin' and heavy eatin' though! :D

Damn that does suck, there was this power out in my city years back it was for like a week and i ate spaghetti-O's while cooking them over a fire. :S

Worst thing is getting sick or injured.

Yeah definitely, I've been having slight cold symptoms and it's annoying but it doesn't seem to have an impact on my workouts.
 
GeekPoop said:
yeah idk what happened. like when im benching, 4-6inches off the chest the weight literally drops. it doesnt anymore but it did the next session.

i like doing reverse band squats you should give them a go soon!

That sucks man, good reason to use a power-rack! I love them keeps me at a peace of mind to know if i need to dump the weight i can without hurting/injuring myself :)

9/1/2011 Max Effort Upper Body

Max Effort Upper Body

Floor Press 135x3 185x1 185x2 205x1 225x1 235x1 235x1

Skull crushers w/ 80lb ez bar 3x7

DB Overhead Tri Extension 85lb db 3x5

***Notes***
Workout was shortened a bit due to having to put the kid sister on the bus. Still, felt great on the floor press, did 235 twice to check I was going down enough. Everything else went smoothly, really hit the shoulders and tri's enough. Overall, really great workout, with a morale boost on the floor press numbers.

Grats! Keep that attitude all the time and you'll always improve, just try to keep a positive state of mind and hype yourself up before hand believe me it does wonders.
