Sorry to hear about the shoulder, at least it is loosening up.
Yeah better than it was last night. Might be some impingement. Gonna try to get in for some deep tissue work today or tomorrow.Sorry to hear about the shoulder, at least it is loosening up.
Yeah with it locking up suddenly sounds like might be a trigger point buggered up!Yeah better than it was last night. Might be some impingement. Gonna try to get in for some deep tissue work today or tomorrow.
Yeah we probably have the same one then. The one he uses has much larger pads and is much more powerful.Get at it.
FYI I bought a TENS off amazon for $40
Next week it's the same set up but 555 for a single. Interested to see how that will move.No less than 535 IMO. I'll hit my 3rd attempts from a reverse orange a couple weeks out and you had a good double there.
This guy, this guy right here.
Thanks boss! All the hard work is done. Now just gotta put it together on meet day.Some good lifts man. That 365 went up like nothing. Congrats on the 600 too that was strong!
This all day seven days a week and twice on Sunday.Dude listen to your coach! 550 would be yours. Especially after a good deload.

Thanks guys. I guess I'm just unsure of myself. Heaviest squat so far is 515 x2 so I'm not sure where that puts me. I'll look for 540-550 come meet day based on how the second attempt feels.This all day seven days a week and twice on Sunday.
You'll get different philosophies on this, but I approach training like I did sparring. Yes, you can redline it in the gym, but what do you really gain out of it? Training is practice and honing the craft to prepare yourself for the platform, which is where it really counts. 515x2 in the gym would translate to somewhere in the 560s for me.Thanks guys.

I agree with that. I have always been conservative with attempts and weight selection. I'm planning on 525 second attempt for a 10 lb pr and go from there for a 3rd. If it's easy then 550 if it's hard then 535 to 540.You'll get different philosophies on this, but I approach training like I did sparring.

Thanks man!Looking good for a fat guy! LOL Sounds like you have a good plan on the weights. Excited for you!
Looking for 350 / 385 / 405 at the meet.Looking ready. That opener is gonna look like a joke on Saturday.
Very similar to mine. I took a conservative jump to 374 second and when it moved better than 352, I took 402. Could possibly have pressed 407-413. We'll never know.Looking for 350 / 385 / 405 at the meet.
385 will be a 5 lb pr. Then going big for somewhere around 400. I'm going conservative and focusing on the total first so well see how the second moves.Very similar to mine.
