How'd it feel DMax ?
It felt okay
He wants another plate!

That about right? :D
 
Yea pretty much they watch bar speed and make judgments based on that

Bench went like this worked up to the 255 for a triple which is what I told Jayson I was going to do then the next time I was up I was like 235 for triples now? he was like **** no 285 so I did it and that's how it's been working

Just walk in, say I'm DMax, but the ladies call me big D.

That'll break the ice.

Or start your deadlift...then when it gets half way just clean that ****!

The place erupts!

Haha you'll do fine man

Edit: make sure you practice with meet commands before hand
 
So I noticed the last 2 upper days when I do side raises I get a slight pinch/pain at the very top only in my right which happens to be the shoulder I hurt back when I first start lifting couldn't do front raises or any pressing for a month.. Any thoughts on this? May just a bad angle cause that's the only time I get it

Avoid the side raises then, bud. Or shorten the range of motion. I don't do side raises up very high, because I have a tendency to shrug and use traps after a certain point.
 
I may as u suggest just shortin the range a bit other then the pinch I'm really enjoying doing them after not for about a year
 
Dam.. talking about volume haha. good work man, and if something hurts then don't do it, or do it slightly differently. like i cant do upright rows unless i take a wider grip and only do em till my upper arm is just bellow parallel to the ground, otherwise they mess with my shoulders pretty bad.

Notes
Was really looking forward to squat today was feeling good but back was still sore a bit which wasn't a factor in squats but was a big factor in deads

Deadlift just felt heavy off the floor for some reason lockout was great but floor to knees felt heavy no speed brian said my back rounded good on the 480 and it felt like it should have stuck with my original plan of 455 for a double

This week in between my sumo I'm going to do conventional pulls to work form and tightness maybe from a deficit

Thats it thanks for read. u guys are look good out there in your own logs. Dmax

Edit: did ab workout yesterday at home ab roller and McGill stuff with planks
 
Your like a son to me DMax, that is the same age as me, but like a friend. A man son friend.


:biglaugh:
 
So I was just looking at my 10/20 life book and it seems the deficits will be just the ticket I'll just pull whatever I'm pulling sumo at the time

Edit:also tomorrow I will be attending Detroit barbell summer bash to help the teammates out and see how things a run

Say hi to Napalm for us! You'll have a blast. Gotta love deficit pulls. They are awesome.
 
This is a good vid on deadlift talks about floating the bar

EliteFTS.com Friday Technique Video - How to set ...: Invalid Link Removed

I already spotted a mistake I made I let them talk me into getting right on the bar and I've always pulled about 1-2 inches away
 
Haven't watched that vid yet but I've noticed I need to be slightly away from the bar too close and nothing works quite right - like I'm restricted in movement but can't get anything very tight
 
So yesterday was a real eye opening experience for me I had a lot of misconceptions about meets and how the were and how the people would be I see now I was totally wrong

I see now it about people doing the best they can at whatever age and experience and everyone wants everybody to succeed

I had the opportunity to meet a lot of great people and great Lifters yesterday from Detroit barbell and the captainjacked crew hear some great storys and everyone for them treated as if I had known them for years

I just wanted to share my take on it even thou I just was on the side lines this time just incase anyone was as nervous about competing
 
Dude Napalm uploaded a YouTube of a real grinder deadlift for a record...I think you were in his presence.

Awesome experience

Notes
Was feeling great today bench felt strong rep pr and single pr feels good to be closing in on 315

Got to the 325 sets and on the second set something was off and my left side dropped wasn't tight or something I really have no clue got a small pop/cracked no pain thou so I called it at that, there is always next week to make up for it.

Norm also informed me that there were 2 different sizes of slingshots there and I was using the 2x I pretty sure last week I was using the xl so that could have had something to do with my mishap.

That's it thanks for reading. u guys are doing great out there. Dmax
