[QUOTE=DetKimble;596133373]im sure youve answered this in the thread already butt.. what kind of shoes u lift in?[/QUOTE]
doesnt matter to me what shoe i wear, when i go heavy on lifts that involve me being on my feet, i take my shoes off
i love high top converse shoes for squating, i feel they let me lift more, other than that i lift barefoot.

whey
285.3 this morning
waist is a little bigger than it was at 287.3, pisses me off
i want to get a 42" waist before i slow down on the diet, then il hopefully get down to 40" slowly while getting stronger.
my waist is 43.5 rounding up, right now, so hopefully il get 42" some time around 280
EDIT: my waist grew 1/2 inch after doing all the volume on Romanians, thats the only way i can explain it lol
[QUOTE=babyslayer;595145553]just want to say i really appreciate all of you for commenting in here, its very encouraging, and as odd as it sounds having all of you see my work makes me want to work harder.
i dont keep a training log to keep track of my progress so much as i keep it because i know i will work harder and more consistently if i put my effort out there for others to see, because i know il only want to show work that im proud of.
so again, thanks to everyone who has posted in here, you are all partially responsible for any progress i make, because all of your posts really do have a very positive effect on what im trying to do here.
just thankful, not trying to start a internet group hug lol[/QUOTE]
it's crazy how much the internet can help motivate on different levels. If it wasn't for the internet i'd probably only be squatting 225 for reps but when you have the internet and you can see kids lift crazy sh*t, it helps put things in perspective and lets you know you're not even close to what you could possibly be lifting

i have had the internet for a year and only just found out that the hamstrings are more important than the quads in deadlifting even though i deadlift close to 700lbs lol.

your a freak
[QUOTE=babyslayer;596511303]yep, without the internet i would be a newb.[/QUOTE]
Without the internet I'd probably still be 175 lbs, happy to bench 225 for 1-3 reps, doing OHP with 95 and either never squatting or doing 1/4s with 225.
And I'd be buying supplements at GNC!
[QUOTE=babyslayer;596514903]your a freak[/QUOTE]
lol, for a year and a half my deadlift and squat routine was to do 1 heavy deadlift work set and 1 heavy squat work set twice a week, sometimes did a bit of ab work. started researching romanian deadlifts and stuff and i kept hearing about the posterior chain(actually thought that was somesort of muscle that ran up the spine). cant believe how stupid i am lol

i actually made a ton of progress doing the same thing, just doing 1 work set of squats and deads and trying to do more than last workout, training a few times a week.
must be something to it

lol at least you would be training legs, i doubt i would have trained anything other than bench and biceps
BS - I'm serious man, don't skim over what I'm saying, I take the health of my fellow lifters f*ckin seriously even if I joke about other things.
Btw, how you can have coffee that is not hot is beyond me LOL!

1/4 squats dont train legs. They simply train you to be a little pussy b!tch

thanks man, il take a few days off all the caffeine and see how i feel in the gym. im training legs tomorrow so i should be able to see if theres much of a difference.
[QUOTE=Farley1324;596557993]1/4 squats dont train legs. They simply train you to be a little pussy b!tch[/QUOTE]
lol
i do see those things going hand in hand a lot
ok so im going to florida at the end of the month, gonna see my brother in person for the first time in a while, so i want to make the biggest change in my body that i can in that time frame.
so i have decided to take the last full week im here, to do some controlled over training.
i plan to train my entire upper body with volume 4 days straight, followed by 3 days off while carbing up
while doing this i plan to raise my protein 100 grams on training days to support the extra work load, i plan to emphasize upper chest, shoulder, traps, and arms as much as possible.
il be getting (sub 2k cals) 350 grams of protein a day while over training, and 500+ carbs a day for 3 days coming from instant oatmeal, skim milk, honey, and bananas while eating significantly higher cals than normal, which i hope will lead to my show off muscles being bloated the **** up
heres the training program i plan to follow
barbell shrug 5x?
haney shrug 5x?
pulldown 5x?
rear delt fly 5x?
dumbell incline 5x?
dumbell shoulder press 5x?
upright row 5x?
side lateral 5x?
skull crusher 10x?
barbell curl 10x?
hammer curl 5x?
yes im aware that there are 75 sets there lol
im confident that the extra work load/protein will help me get down to 280, and then make me look significantly bigger
really looking forward to doing this.
good night, sweet prince.
I don't know anyone who's not on gear that could handle that workload for more than a couple of days, let alone whilst dieting. Good luck lol.

lol
itl be motivating to get my shoulders and traps and chest and arms all pumped up during the same workout, and know that in a couple days il be nomin on a ****load of delicious carbs and be able to take time off and feel big again
i wouldnt want to keep up that volume, but when trying to make a drastic change in a week, you gotta do drastic ****
itl be fun to train the same muscles a few days in a row too, feel the fatigue build up and know that my bodys just gonna go bat **** crazy when i give it the nutrition it needs to recover/grow
cant wait
good luck bro, short-term should be fine

i thought there was no advantages at all to over training or is this just a experiment?

theory is that when you purposely overtrain, then stop and eat...a lot, you'll explode. I think periodised overtraining's fairly popular, espescially with guys on gear. It just hurts a lot.

ahhh thankyou, never came across it before i'll look it to it cereally. Can't wait to see if this is work doing naturally.
[QUOTE=PearlSoap;596910003]good luck bro, short-term should be fine[/QUOTE]
yeah, i think so
with the hell i have put my body through for the last 5+ months im finding that i can abuse it pretty badly and it just adapts lol
[QUOTE=oh.hai;596912083]lol you sir are a beast.

its a experiment in that i have very little experience training this way on low carbs/cals

i actually used to train this way a lot, a ton in fact
i made a lot of gains by training the same muscles for a few days in a row, with a few days off. my squat especially seemed fond of being trained this way
like i would squat and do back extensions and leg curls one day
leg press and romanians the next day
goodmornings back extensions and leg curls
squat again and do goodmornings and leg press and leg curls etc
then take a few days off
when i was 16 i squated 675 and i when i did it i had only had like 2 days off training legs in the 2 weeks prior to squating that.
i also made incredible gains benching 5 days a week, (blast your bench program)
generally i have found over training, while gaining weight, followed by enough rest to fully recover to be the best way to make gains.
but as i got stronger i realized that i couldnt train this way anymore because i would get injured :(
i remember when i was 16 my modo on squats was "train when ever you think you can make gains" so if i felt i could hit a PR on a exercise i would try almost regardless of if i trained that muscle yesterday, and the day before, etc.
infact i ****ing love training the same muscles multiple days in a row, and with the right amount of cals/etc, and rest afterwards, i think its the best way to grow and gain strength
but its very injury prone in my experience
close stance deep hack squat (heels like 6" apart)
warm up
545x1
545x2
545x3
545x4
545x5
545x6
545x7
high bar beltless goodmorning swith dl stance
225x7x5, damn these werent easy, killer lower back exercise
deficit deads
225x4 felt my inner leg muscle feeling like it was gonna tear
315x4
405x1
495x0 felt inner leg feeling like it was gonna tear after i got it off the floor so i stopped, woulda threw the thing into the atmosphere if i wasn't worried about injury tho
wide stance romanian deads (thought would be theraputic for my inner thigh)
135x10
185x10
225x20
not a bad workout, sure wish i didnt feel so injury prone tho.
but, doing the hack squats puts strain on my inner thighs because i go so deep and push my knees out, and im sure goodmornings have a effect on it too, was probably just feeling strained from all the volume before pulling
