the napalm detroit barbell experience...

My daughters volleyball coach is hot. And before you ask, yes, it is a female.

That is all...
 
The perv dad is not the image I want to portray.

That's code for I'm surrounded by parents...
 
Its not you're image that matters, its all about how far you're willing to go for your fans...

Turn your action sounds off on your camera app, and pretend to text.

You're not doing it because you're a perv, you're doing it to serve the greater cause. The cadre demands it!
 
You Richards are gonna get me tossed in the clink. There's 75 15 yr old girls here.

(Yup, my 13 yr old is playing w the 15 yr olds!)
 
She's the one in the grey sweatsuit. 23ish , 5'9" w a ponytail.

Don't know if you can see her good enough

Jesus Christ, I'm going to end up in prison one of these days...
 
Having given this some more thought, this could be picapalooza:

Just wait till the coach is by my kid, then snap away.

"I'm just taking pics of my kid..."

<----evil genius...
 
Oh lawdy!!!! This thread took a turn

You definitely took a pic of "22"s butt. Come on man she's only 15...


Lol no I see some potential for coach.

Get a better quality camera so it looks legit.

Meh, collateral damage.

It's not the camera, it's the idiot trying to not look like a perv...

Ah, now I see where you're going w this. I just happen to have one too!

We might have to have a separate thread, there's 3 hours a week of practice.

I found out she played college vball at central Michigan...
 
Them Chippewas are some badasses. E.G. Dan LeFevour. You should see their wrestling team!

Well, they probably did, but when we (guys) were/are 15, we were thinking of stuff like mitt oil, train sets and the one kid in school with the goatte, hairy chest and a car, that was hunting us at lunch time for cig money...!

390 x 0, i knew coming in today clay was gonna say touch 390. got it to about 1/4 inch, aborted, threw it towards my feet AGAIN and they took it

thoughts
a pretty forgettable day. tracey was keeping an eye on me today and she said i was completely out of the groove. and i don't think it was even close, everything felt wrong the last two attempts. i had a feeling clay was gonna have me touch today, and i thought i was ready. there's a shyt ton of difference between a 1 board and touching. i thought it hurt before...shyyytttt, i thought i was gonna die. the shoulders felt great going in today, now the left one feels like ass.

<---not real happy right now...
 
Well, looks like there is just gonna be growing pains with the shirt...get em next time and rest that shoulder

i don't know robbie, this might sound dumb or p.ussyish, but i'm starting to think i might not be strong enough for a shirt yet.

maybe i should push 3 plates (about 40 lbs from here) before i put the shirt on again...
 
Are you using double ply?


Edit: I'm like 99% sure you are. My point is is there any use in doing single ply first? A guy at my last comp I became cool with bombed on 285 and just two weeks ago hit 330 or 350 single ply in a comp. I don't know much about gear so I could be way off here.

lol, the jack is triple ply. i know, i cut the sleeves!

this might be painful, but i'm gonna talk to big clay about this sunday. the goal is to qual in something at nats so i can go to worlds again. right now, i couldn't find my ass in the shirt. clay might feel otherwise, but i gotta bring it up.

another confounding actor is i'm going to the philippines for 3 weeks the end of april = no shirt work. i'll be able to find a bench on the other side on the other side of the island, but that's about it. then, 1 more week and off to nats...

Holy **** triple! Haha dam.

And good call talking to the expert.
 
Don't get upset now, it's not easy to learn a shirt. You're working with 125lbs more than you've ever pressed before. You're going to get the hang of it. It might not be good for your next comp, but stick with it. It can take as much as a year before you truly master it. Keep beefing up your lats to pull that bar in to touch and keep working on your technique. Your work WILL pay off. Just ask the guys around you how long it took.

The four shirts I have pressed in went like this:

Blast: 20lbs carryover the first time, no carryover afterwards. Cheap.
Rage: Too small. Never touched. 425 to a 1 board, 450 floated at 2 when I tried to touch.
Katana: Touched 405 as a warmup, couldn't move it off my chest. 425 I threw into the racks on my second attempt. 425 I couldn't even hold at lockout on my third.
Viking: 20lbs carryover. Can't move 455 off my chest.

I've worked at least a month on three of the four, never got anything more than 20lbs carryover from them. All of the shirts are good for 80-100.
 
yeah, 125 is about right. i'm pretty sure i could get 270 raw.

i have to keep the big goal in mind: defend my WPC M2 198 thing

there's a couple different ways i could get there...
 
squat/deadlift

squat - bar 55 lbs

warmup
stretch/mash/roll

bar x 10
105x10
145x6
195x5

work
235x3
285x3
305x2
335x1

deadlift - 3 inch box
225x5
275x5
315x3
365x3
405x2
455x1 - happy w this

thoughts
decent day, i think i squatted a little better. mark says i have a slight initial shoot up of the ass, then my back has to catch up, but i get it. gotta work on that. i talked to big clay about me being in the shirt and he basically said i'm strong enough, i just need reps. he pointed to a couple guys and said they can't bench 315 raw, but can go >450 in a shirt. i told him it's killing my bicep tendon and he said maybe every other week. he then goes on to say i need to get in it every week so i don't know what the fck. we talked bout me going to the philippines, one week back, then to nationals and he said that was prolly a bad idea, so now i'm thinking about the senior nationals in grand rapids the following week. this much i know: every time i go to the philippines i lose 10 lbs for various reasons, mostly being in the jungle for 3 weeks. i would prolly be weak as fck when i get back, so that extra week might do me good. top 3 at the senior nationals also qualifies for worlds - which is the goal.

i have a few weeks to think about it...
 
this is the guy that beat jj at the arnold. he mentions him a few times...

don't get me wrong, it's pretty fcking cool, and that's why i made the move, but most of the time i'm loading plates or just trying to stay the fck out of the way...
 
It seems like when I was going through my apprenticeship you alway get the crap work and are there to learn but eventuality a new apprentice comes along and boom u move up and right in the mix of things there are the rare occasions where u wish u hadn't lol
 
I see youre back to moving large loads here, old man. Well done. And agree with Rob's sentiments re growing pains of the gear. Wondering if more warm ups may be helpful too.Anyhow, keep up the good work, bud. You'll catch those goals, only to pursue larger ones.

Txs jinxie, I've been pretty warmed up before the shirt goes on, usually to around 90-95% of raw 1rm. Yes, I need more reps, that much is out there but the thing just freakin hurts. All pressure is in my left bicep tendon. My RC's in both arms are held together by bone anchors already. Will they adapt to the increased weight structurally is the question...
 
Ok boys, it looks like I'm doing the UPA state meet on Saturday. Don't know what though, bench only or full power.

Right now I'm looking at:

355ish
270ish
420ish

I squatted 335 w no issues yesterday, my last warmup before I put the shirt on Friday was 250, and it flew up, and I pulled 415 last week w/o any issues.

My only concern is this would be the first test of the Achilles, and I'll prolly be ~20 less that what I squatted last May.

Thoughts?

I just told JJ to put me down for full power.

:eek:

I was looking at records and I'm bummed. If I was in the 50-54 class I'd prolly have the record. But, UPA is at whatever age you are the day of the meet.

Reach for an attainable squat number, and aim for the fences with the bench and deadlift.
