Sean's Powerlifting Journey

Best thing I have done is to have you guys tear down my form. It's one thing to think your form is good and another to actually see how it looks.
 
I think filming and critical analysis of your lifts is quite important, especially if you compete in various types of competition (olympic, pl, etc). I would add the caveat that you should be careful who you take advice from though. While most of the people whose logs I follow and who are in those logs give solid advice, there are plenty of internet form nazis that will tear down even the tiniest of faults. Or some just don't want to hurt others feelings and say you good to go all the time.

I always appreciate people's feedback when I post vids though, gotten lots of solid feedback from some people on AM before. :)
 
This meal is justified by using a whole wheat bun. Get your ass to work SlinSane

I agree as well. The nice thing about the PL "group" here is I think we're all pretty honest. There isn't much sycophantic cawk stroking when things are posted; it's 99% good, honest feedback.

JMHO.

Agreed. I try to stay in the little PLing nook of the site, it's a bunch of good, intelligent guys who are about results and hard work. I want to hit my head against a wall when I read the anabolics sections. You guys hit the nail on the head.
 
That and we're all a bunch of good lookin dudes with bellies

Side note: Shoulder feels 10x better. Taking ibuprofen every 8 hours, and spraying Joint Force on my shoulders after I shower and wrapping with Saran Wrap (Patrick Arnold did good with this one)
 
I don't have a belly. :sad:

Lol who needs leverage? Fatty :D
 
Meh mines slowly disappearing. I fit in my pants again. Which is good because I have a dress uniform inspection tomorrow and 3 months ago I couldn't button them

Alphamine is gonna make me look like Bolt
 
Lol I may have a belly soon. I am gonna try to get up to 210(198 today) and see how it fits me when I get there. Then depending how that goes I'll either recomp or get back to 198ish for a December meet.
 
The way I see it, you're not at optimal powerlifting weight until your belly is way out past your pecs, your ass can hold a TV dinner, you have two chins while squatting, and you've gone up at least one shirt size and two pants sizes from where you started.

Is that what you tell yourself when you need a little confidence boost?

ddg's can be a rough ride dude. i've got pics of one w 40 ft waves breaking over her bow. on the way back from beirut, we took a right and went up into the north sea. caught a hurricane when we were dicking around up there. some really wild pics.

we were deployed 7 months and lost 9 guys - 2 pilots...
 
Cube Method-Accessory Day

Prewo- 1 scoop Alphamine, 6 PeakBeta+, 5g creatine mono

Warmup- TSpine/Delt/Pec mash, push-ups, bar weight x 15x2

OHP/Pull-up
95x15x5/BWx10,8,8,6

DB Bench(against onyx mini)/Pendlay Row
65x15x5/225x8x4, 135x15

Band Pushdowns/BB Curls
Light x 15x3/65x15x3

Cambered Bar Ab Rollouts

Good day. Lightweight, good work capacity (it's been lacking lately) and I just felt refreshed. Big ol pump. Rows were done without wrist straps, competition bench grip, squeeze the crap out of it. Read some article I can't find now on EFS on squeezing the bar with your hands for a big bench, using your lats for a big back. So, I did that.
 
Oh! And ZERO shoulder pain (not rubbing it in your face on purpose Swanson)

Since the messed up shoulder Tuesday, I've been doing an assload of band work (pullaparts, Y's, 3D's, over/backs) every night and then wrapping my shoulders in Joint Force soaked Saran Wrap.
