I am focusing on the Fresno right now, and since there is only one class in the over 40's I am just doing my best to get as super lean as possible and hold on to the muscle I have been developing since 2008. I want very much to do Bob and Tinas show and I figure the Fresno is a good way to get back into the competition mode.
Your upper body has always been impressive but I think I know what you mean, you want that absolute freaky upper body mass to match the huge quads. You are obviously doing it. Keep up the good work and it is nice to hear you are getting more into the posing. You'll do just fine

[cawiau]

strong lifts as usual, so not surprised
I need to try those floor press one of these days, but will probably go with dumbbells before graduating to barbell's

[Minimuz]

So when's the 'Berto' clothing line coming out? Count me in for anything fluro or irish!

Strong, who am i kidding, freak pressing there, and the 'bulge's for arms' pic was a definetate scroll down-wha?-scroll back up momento!

[toddbz]

Front squat challenge!!

[Frankdaddy]

Knee wraps IMO are far from raw + he was about 6 inches above paralell, no pun intended on him of course because he handled it nicely regardless and ill never be able to squat down that far with that much weight lol.

[Minimuz]

It's all the screaming, its a well known fact the louder you scream the more you can push! Ask any of the 2 inch squatters at my gym! lol

the f*ck....

made it look easy, except for his head about to explode from spinal pressure/stabilization

to me it looked like he reached parallel...certainly a bad angle to know for sure

[Frankdaddy]

I consider paralell when the crease of your hips and thighs reach perfectly in lign with the crease at the bend of behind the knee. I may just be a little biased on my opinion because I am jealous of his manly ability to handle that weight on his back

[cawiau]

whether it was parallel or not, that is some sick weight just to lift off the bar

You are right, you have been improving for quite a while now. Its been a while since you have hit the stage. I am sure we will see some good changes!

BB is easier IMO. I think next week I have 345-355 for a single.

Wraps, barely meet depth...regardless that was some ****! WOW....Shame I can't do legs until Wed...bleh

[craig//nicol]

Arms lookin huge man!

[thepacman]

Huge arms FTW! WOW

Like I've told Brett before, just don't do it within an hour or so of squating. Loosens things up, but no good right before lifting. Will make you feel like you're on someone elses legs.

I think this one has quite a bit to do with hip mobility to.

One of my favorite movements to get a nice amount of weight going on a pullday after some heavy back work. Made it so that 5 sets was more than enough yesterday.

Its a good one! One of my favorites. I do it with a baseball.

[PaC-mAn8]

Defranco is the man.

His Agile 8 & Upper Body warm-up routines are money.

Good man. And in the stretch position I think it does a much better job of working out the knots. Plus look at how much you can focus on that specific area.

Some of the fascia release stuff will straight hobble you if you're new to it lol
