yeah I have a membership to a real gym but, I like lifting at home better, less people so I can concentrate.

Max was 405 4 months ago, hoping to hit about 440 by the time I'm done with 20 reppers

I weighed 197 this morning.

Now I'm doing 20 rep squats

I'll probably start sheiko after I feel like I've gotten everything I can out of 20 rep squats

Yeah commercial gyms kill the intensity with the 1000 bros who feels the need to do 8 different variations of curls.

Haha yeah, it does tire you out but, it's 95% mental.
At rep 12 where I pause I was having a mental battle part of me was saying "Your crazy, rack the weight and just do a couple extra sets instead." Then the other part said "Are you a man or a vagina. Get the next eight reps, and finish your workout."

yeah, my core is my limitting factor but, I'm working on it.

soniamimpress... but don't count on building up your max with 20 reps squats. they are great for building up the size tohelp build the strength though. once you start doing some triples again your max will skyrocket. 440 should be easy once you get back into maximal weights

How'd you end up red?
Yeah, I'm actually still doing semi-maximal weights just on front squats so, I'm hoping it won't be a huge transition back into it. Have you done the 20 rep program before?

[Dgwear]

beast bro. how many times do you bench 225?

[judowrestler1]

I haven't benched in forever but, last time I really tried I got ten. That was like 6 months ago though.

I got mod negged for an aas discussion. i've never done the program just randomly thrown into workouts and such as burnouts and sometimes for working sets. it builds up a lot of size but not much strength at all

Well, if nothing else my conditioning for Judo will improve.
