The Beast on Wade's Program

[bmgamble]

Nice job on the PR and the pullup increases. Those wrist wraps help much? I keep forgetting to check into them.

Thanks.

Only when I need them. If I go over 250 or so I like them. More so I don't think about my wrists then anything else.

Playtime
I took the kids too the Mall to play at the indoor park thing there. I got to the mall and realized that I didn't pack a stroller. So I got a 15 minute walk each way carrying a 28lb wiggling sandbag (Hank). Then it was constant movement so I could see both Hank and Eva at all times. It was a blast and this short clip sums it all up.



just in case you couldn't hear the end...

Eva: Daddy I got a boo boo (crying)
Me: Oh are you ok?
Eva: I'm ok (runs off with a smile)

Let me know when you get a certain package... The other person got theirs, yesterday...

[TakedaShingen]

All of the PRs and badass lifts in here pale in comparison to the video of you being a dad. That's what it's all about right there. Good job man. That'll get more kudos from me than any lift you pull.

checked out your bench. Yeah, it's really a tough deal for a weak bencher to give advice here. But I take the risk. The arching was good. The stance looked good too, provided you had a good contact for leg drive. But I got the impression that you moved your head in midst of the lift.

Well the it is a solid PR and I guess we all have to live with flaws on form when we are on the limits our lifts..

[ODoyle99]

hmm..interesting. So what's the week's layout look like out of curiosity? Sun-Tues big lift days, Wed rest day, Thurs big lift day, Friday bro/weak spot, Saturday rest?
(I'm not being lazy, I've gone through the past 3-4 pages of your log but there's so many posts I can't keep them straight haha)

I notice I do that too and should probably make up my mind either way. My main complaint is I am almost always moving something that should be tights (head, Feet, losing arch etc)

DRAMA
THE CREEPER
So there is a girl that works out at the same time as me everyday that competes in Figure and we are friendly. I see this dude taking video of her ass while was doing DB deadlifts. I go over and tell her.

Beast: That dude is taking videos of your ass
Figure Chick: I am complaining to management that is the second time someone has caught him

She complains and the guy claims that he wasn't taking vids. He is warned to not have his phone out like that again. He finishes his workout and leaves and we think its all cool. So I finish my cooldown and am headed out the door when I see the Creeper waiting in the lobby. I walk back in to tell Figure Chick.

Beast: That creeper is waiting in the lobby for you.
Figure Chick: He kinda scares me. I am going to call the cops.
Beast: I can save you the time.

I called over my cop buddies and they called in an officer to file a harassment complaint on him. I think he is at least going to be kicked out of the gym.



THE PAYOFF

[Stncldsnake]

All kinds of PR's!! Great workouts and vids, keep killing it bro!!

[ulsak]

awesome dips and pull ups, Harry!

Next off day, try the Pyramid routine; BW, medium grip

sets 1, 2, 3, etc til you get to fail and then backwards to the single set.

Creeper stuff: The gym is prolly the worst place to stalk on chicks :

* reason one: confronted with a chick who might have capabilities to hit back...hard
* reason two: there are big guys around who won't welcome stalking with joy...
* reason three: the prevalance of beasts and cops may happen

[bmgamble]

Nice job on digging in to get that rep PR...handled it like a boss! Huge reps. Nice sessions!
