i was thinking about injuries this very morning,
Now that my weights are starting to get heavy, what precautions should i be taking to try and avoid injury
My bench routines incorporate 5 x 5 my buddy who has mentored me through my journey to date suggests i shud be in a higher rep range.
What are your thoughts?
You see from reading my thread that I prefer higher rep ranges. This has as much to do with safety as with the fact that I respond better to higher reps.
Some have already mentioned adding cissus and that's a great idea. Other advice I would give is to make sure you're taking at least 10 grams of fish oil every day. I prefer higher doses. This really helps with lubing up the joints.
Now muscle tissue wise, I advice you to warm-up more than thoroughly, and to stretch.....alot. I stretch between every set!! You can't be too careful and the frequent stretching keeps me loose and not feeling "muscle-bound".
Make sure to do lots of warm up sets working your way up to your heavy weights.
I hope this helps you out. :thumbsup:

More pictures please.
lmfao x2
Excellent chest routine, pre exhausts seemed to work very well thx TG
No 400lb bench strength was unchanged from Mondays lift (which was PR city) get it next time
Goodnight
How long have you been lifting bud?
Also on another note you should try and not use the pre exhaust technique when going for pr's, it will limit your one rep strength to a degree. imo
Looks like the pre exhaust technique is working well for you, which is what it's all about: doing what works for you. Good call on staying safe and avoiding injuries, going for milestone PR's don't mean **** if it puts you out of commission for a while, you'll get that big 400 when you're ready. Just keep training hard and smart.
Lol and one thing I'm liking about this thread is it sure never spares any expense on the eye candy pics!
Yea. As much as I badly want that 400lb lift k could tell from doing a set of 5 x 335 that it would be fool hardy to attempt, so I just got down to biz and did the new WP that TG helped me put together.
Plenty more hotties from where they came fromthis cycle as got me randier than a jack rabit

I think I was supposed to come here to check on the 400lb bench status but I sort of lost track to what I was doing..
LOL, haven't been on AM for a day or two and figured I would check in on the fun here. Apparently the level of fun went up a bit since my last visit.
You've done well grasshopper.
great log and awesome results so far, how much longer you got "on"?
I used helios a few times a couple years back and had great results with it. As nyoung mentioned, if you react harshly to yohimbe prolly be a little cautious with it. But if not, enjoy![]()
