Date: November 1st, 2011 10:30 PM Author: beady-eyed rebellious giraffe public bath Going to run TM from now until Boxing Day (8 weeks) and see what kind of gains I can make.
If I had to guess, I'd say my current maxes are: Bench: 260 OHP: 170 Box Squat (above parallel): 325 Deadlift: 315x5 I'm 6' and weigh around 190.
Today I did the following: Box squat (above parallel): 275x5x5 Bench: 215x5x1 DB Press: 80x4 DB rows: 100x8x3 Dips: 30lbs.x10x3 |

Date: November 3rd, 2011 11:29 PM Author: beady-eyed rebellious giraffe public bath Shitty workout today, bros.
Front squat--185x3x3 actually struggled to get the third rep on all 3 sets. OHP--160x2x3 My reps @ 160 have fallen from 5 to 4 to 3 to now 2 over the past 3 weeks. Back extenions--5x10 w/35lbs. Pullups--7, 5, 5
Time to get serious about moving my numbers beyond where they've been before and life in general. Right now, I'm below 50% (percentage grade) in all 4 of my classes. I've also been eating like total shit of late--prob 180 grams of fat and 200g of sugar daily. Really need to turn that all around. Going to write down some rules re: diet/study time/etc. tonight and hold myself to them from now until Xmas.

|
Date: November 1st, 2011 10:37 PM Author: beady-eyed rebellious giraffe public bath I actually did 325x5 the last time I DL'ed but I havent been eating since then, so I assume its gone down a bit.
But yeah, my upper body lifts are ahead of my lower body lifts. |

Date: November 1st, 2011 10:39 PM Author: sinister university jewess did you just start recently. your deadlift shouldnt be less than that squat, and you sure as shit shouldnt be able to bench almost as much as you DL. bad back or something?

Date: November 1st, 2011 10:53 PM Author: Geriatric casino electric furnace work on that first. you need hip fexibility to doa squat or a dl properly.
otherwise you might as well do 5 sets of 5 leg extensions instead and free up the space in the squat rack. |
|
Date: November 1st, 2011 10:55 PM Author: beady-eyed rebellious giraffe public bath Shut up bro. Box squats are way more intense than leg extensions. My above parallel box squat is still lower than most of the guys' regular squat that I see at my gym. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1797490&forum_id=2#19283264) |
|
Date: November 1st, 2011 11:00 PM Author: Geriatric casino electric furnace you just said above that your problem is hip fexibility. if you cant bend at the hips properly, you cannot get into an athletic stance, you cannot squat, you cannot dead lift, you cannot do texas properly.
i imagine the reason you like box squats is because you cant maintain balance with your ass out back so you need to sit on the box. this is similar to a wall sit, or using the faggot smith machine with your feet way in front of you.
in other words, you are doing a leg press but not engaging your hips, ass or hamstrings.
just work on your flexibility.
what the other faggots in your gym can do doesn't mean much. |
