Hope the little guy starts feeling better, and good luck on your job interview. Quads are looking good man, great separation and sweep.💪 -
Been away for a bit from you guys (and gal!). But life has been a whirlwind since coming back from our trip between work and some fun in between! Very minimal to no workouts lately due to my...

You could use Spotos for Boring But Strong after your primary bench. Then to help pick up a tad more volume, which does seem to force the bench well, do one AMRAP (regular or closegrip) touch n... -
Eric Spoto (who was an ATWR raw benchpresser, arm wrestler and gym rat with generally enormous arms), famously trained all of his bench press coming down to within an inch or so of his chest. Now...

Hyde replied to the thread Hyde’s Strength Odyssey.Food is only going down for now. I seem to be maintaining ~220, so I will need more gear, less weekly cals and possibly cardio to get to 210. But that’s what making 198 is going to take. Gear...

akboom87 replied to the thread Weights up, scales down….When it gets cold enough I will keep them and a fur buyer comes around and just buys them whole. I used to skin all of them out and sell or tan them. I might pick that up down the road again... -
I missed this post yesterday, probably because I left at lunch to take my wife to the Doctor, but that was a great bench session…you pressed a lot of tonnage in all those sets.😎👍

What you're describing reminds me of men I call the fragile egoed narcissist. Feminine men who think they're masculine but they're always the victim always the poor me and everything is always...

It sounds to me like you just didn't feel super confident from the beginning, and probably got in your head a little bit. I do agree with Hyde, you should have taken a bigger jump, but that is...

whats funny is I spent the last few days doing math. 310 x .95, 310 x .93, etc figuring out my jumps. When it came down to making a decision between 305 and 310 I can't tell you why in the moment...

MrKleen73 replied to the thread We cuttin now ✂️.Now if I hit 180 and was not like pretty close to contest ready I would be shocked. I am thinking 183-187 to be very lean. I could be wrong but we will see. I think around 190 would be very good...

Happy birthday man! 44 is looking good already for you! Haha, love it! But probably true!

I definitely believe Spotos will help your sticking point. I would say from just a few inches above the chest all through the midway zone is the area they probably help the most. That stopping the...

A large percentage of people hurt every day. They then use that excuse to do nothing , they lose strength , muscle mass , core stability , decondition from a cardiac standpoint. They still hurt...

You think spottos are the cure for me over full bottom position pauses? I'll take any advice. should I take them as a 5x5 at like 240 vs my normal 5x10? We did 12hrs in Miami.... i'm going to...

Congrats on the 225. Impressive after the 1RM stuff. I’m 7 years younger than you but your thread and you hitting PRs and some discussion in @gphagan1’s thread the other day has me wondering… how...

I didn't really know them as Spotos but I can tell you for sure when I needed to work on the point I needed to flare my elbows to complete the press that pausing just before that point, and then...

aint that funny? and I'd probably be another 10lbs lower. When you see a ton of enhanced guys having to chase 180 to hit 10% or lower it really puts the big dogs like heath, cutler and coleman...

MrKleen73 replied to the thread Segansational's Motivation Log.Has he competed before, or is he talking out his ass? That is a HUGE jump, and the CNS might not be ready for it. He might hit his rep, but it could take more out of him than his 2nd attempt would...

MrKleen73 replied to the thread Weights up, scales down….Outside of killing them as a nuissance, can you do anything with them? New leg warmers or something? LMAO

Definitely enjoying every minute of it man! it’s very surreal to me I mean this year I’ll be 40 and he will be 73. He is in great shape and very active but at times it hits me with him and mom...

it was very similar except I had the third battle club dangling between my legs and probably a pair of sandals on my feet
