Risk your Avatar and Braggin' Rights with Your Best Lifts

Both actually.. especially with a wider stance squat... think about it.. you pop your hips forward at the top end.

We've definitely got enough players. Though I'm still trying to think of the best way to go about doing this, here's what I got:

Possibility #1
- You can only compete in ONE EXERCISE.
- We'll split up into different threads for each specific exercise and compete with each other from there.

Possibility #2
-We'll compete in several exercises (seems like this is gonna be Dips, Presses, and deadlifts). The winner would be based on overall improvement.

Of course, having the mechanical advantage (being a short ****er) helps too. :squat: :squat: :squat:

Will there be a geared divison? :D
 
Interesting idea Sinner. This should be fun to watch. Yes, that's right... watch, as in I will spectate :D Ain't no one gonna make me have some ghey ass clown avy. :icon_lol:
 
Cougar even has Metal Deadlifting socks.. Now that's gear.

Coug I think only you and Kabuki have PL gear on these logs.

i think gear means you can play with yourself (with assorted wrenches)in a closed dark room(while listining to the a-team soundtrack)wearing overalls,and face paint.......just a guess tho

For dips, I've done
BW + 190 for 5 reps
BW + 205 for 2 reps

BW was about 210 when I did that. Haven't tried any heavier lately. I was just kidding about the Drone's worth, but maybe one day.

Dude GAY... I was about to say IN... when I read your first one... now that I've seen this.....

My dips pr = my old body weight + 145 (total of 370 at the time for 6)

145 for 6 is a solid lift. Good work. :thumbsup:

I've heard Ronnie C. does them with 9 plates = 405.

7 weeks sounds good. What do you want to do, max, x3, x5? I would suggest that we determine our 3rm within the next few days, and then see who makes the most improvement by Sept 1?

Well, I tried 315 for 3 today and failed miserably. If it's okay, though, I'd like to use 315 as my 3RM since that is the best I've ever done (I've failed at 320 so it truly is my 3RM). I like to keep moving forward.

My goal is 3 100lb plates... that would just look sick... at first I thought 3 45s would look kewl.. and, ya sure it did... but even a 100 and a 45 looks wimpy to me now.. I want some BIG weight on there.. lol

Basically powerlifting equipment used mostly to increase the amount of weight lifted and at the same time provide a bit of protection to the joints that one wouldn't receive lifting raw. Here's the equipment I use:

Metal Ace Squatter: Invalid Link Removed
Metal Viking Briefs: Invalid Link Removed
Inzer Double Denim Bench Shirt: Invalid Link Removed

Cool. I'll probably do my 3 rep incline max on wednesday, so I'll let you know then. What are the basics of the routine you'll be using?

I'm using a version 5x5 by Starr and Pendlay where you stick with 5x5 for 4 weeks then 3x3 for 5 weeks. I've altered it a little and am doing some strongman training on Sundays, but I basically do incline on Friday normally. Everythings a little out of whack right now since I have a contest this Sunday.

Strongman contest? Where at? What events are involved? When you do the 5x5, do you stick with the same weight, leaving reps in the tank in the early sets, or do you lower the weight slightly each set? Do you always do inclines or do you switch to something else occasionally? Where were you born? How are your parents doing? Kidding about the last two, but that was a lot of questions I just asked:lol:

It's in some small town in central Illinois (supposedly close to Matt Hughes' town). The events are keg load, tire flip and sled pull meddley, log press, and 18 inch deadlift (most likely my worst event, :nutkick:, for you deadlift monsters). It should be a small contest, but fun and a good starter. MW is 230, and I'm a little undersized at 215 but as tenacious and hungry as '03 Wandy :twisted:.

I stick with the same weight and do flat bench Monday and incline Friday. The first 2 weeks are fairly easy, then week 3 is tough but doable and week 4 is a *****. On week 4, I do the best I can but sometime need help finishing the last 2 sets. Week 8 and 9 are pretty high sets of 3X3 where you come close or beat your previous 1RM for sets of 3 (these don't always get done, though).

Cool. Thanks. O.K., I did 335 for 3 on incline. Actually got 4, but the 4th was a contortion act, and not healthy for my front delts. So it's on. Good luck on Sunday man.

i can't get video, poops, but i might take ya up on this one.........
 
sounds gooooood. redwolfwv i think is gonna join in on that one too he said he may be down over in chads thread, i say we get a 3 way battle goin and the winner gets to choose both others avis.... nice?
 
so im goin to the gym in a couple hours and see what my max is, im afraid it'll be low... but im doin 100lb db's for sets of 10 so i better be able to do at least 260, 250.... we'll see.
 
uhhhhhh.......chad it's on beyotch!!!..i have a few ideas,,bwahahahahahahahahahahahaha:bb3:
 
At 360ng/dl testosterone, no thyroid and other health issues the best I could do at a natural 5'7" 155lbs:

205lbs bench
170lbs clean and press 6-7 reps
~300lbs deadlift
660lbs incline leg-press for 7reps (all the way down)

Sadly, took me over 2yrs to get there, we'll see how I do on TRT and thyroid meds.. So far training is nearly impossible with just the T4.
 
All right fellas heres my official starting for 1RM progression contest(done across 3 weeks with 2 week following rematch), now i didnt get video but had to get the front desk guy to even help me out for a spot so obviously it would be even tougher to get someone to actually record it...... any who its obvious below i aint lying cause i could easily say i am startin @ 265 like RedwolfWV but heres what i got tonight...

build up to 1RM flat bench
135 x10 (warm up)
225 x2
245 x1
275 x1
295 x1

so my official starting 1RM is 295 guys
i currently weigh 190 exactly so if we want we can do it by percentage of body weight lifted and finishing percentage increase by the end (in case you guys or i lose weight it would be benificial percentage wise)

OR

we can go for all out total poundage added regardless of starting 1RM weight or body weight% comparedto lifting.....

sorry, is that too confusing, ya guys in?
