Dude your sense of humor needs some tweaking. You respond negatively to jokes and to questions. Don't take life so seriously or you will never make it out alive

Awesome sesh big Bob. The slow tempo and paused squats must be a bitch. Slowing down compound movements expends so much more energy during the set. Any time I try it I'm exhausted. Keep it up man.

It may look easy on paper, but its not in real life, each rep expands over 10 seconds, it adds up REAL fast, doing 1 minute sets of squats is taxing. The saftey bar squats are even worse, that thing is a beast.

Have a good memorial day weekend BOB

Exactly. I know this all too well from trying it. SSB's are brutal I agree.

You too Bob enjoy man.

TUT...1min squats...GROWING BUDDY!!!!!

Everyone is different on how far they can push, it just comes down to your goals and where you want to go. Moving up a weight class wont be fun getting a bit uncomfortable, but its just a matter of time, dedication, and consistency. Im just going to train hard and let time play its part, and may as well have some fun in the mean time.

THIS!!!!!! Your pushing hard and cant wait to see the physique you bring to the stage next time around!!!!

[AllGenetix]

i really doubt you can do 60 seconds of pullups. 6 x 10 seconds of tempo, vid please

Just day by day.

7/10 are negative/pause the 3 seconds on he way up is not bad, plus its BW, im not adding any weight hence why the overall weight i push on my workouts are submax due to rep tempo

Is your teaching gig like an on-call setup? Curious how that works for those who are substitutes

You can do on-call, and they also offer an online program that looks like a calendar where teachers request off in advance,

so you can see what grade, what school district, and attached notes on what you will be doing for the day (lesson Plans)
i am now on a preferred sub list for a few school districts, so i am basically set up until the end of the year with filled in spots for subs.
I am awaiting to hear back about a full-time sub job in the fall from one school district due to a lady that will be having a kid and taking a very long time off, basically i will become an employee for teaching so many days straight and get her pay and benefits

[The Big Sleep]

Good deal, hope that works out in the Fall for you man

Even if it does not i will be called in almost everyday between the 4 different districts i substitute in. I get a call around 5 every morning to substitute now n days anyway, so the more experience i can add to my resume the better.

Dude, that's pretty sweet with the calendar thing. I was always wondering how that worked (I was going to wait and find out in December when I finally graduate. woot woot!).

I'm pulling for ya with the full time sub job. That would be great!

The Saftey Bar is 2x harder than a back squat, it really helps you focus on engaging your glutes as you sit back into the motion and keeping your elbows up (like a front squat). Totally MURDERS your core, which for me is necessary this offseason as i continue to pound it with Ab work and exercises to strengthen it to hope it pops next time i diet down for a show.

[Randoja]

Nice work buddy, I need to find a safety bar at my gym!

[The Solution]

Nice work buddy, I need to find a safety bar at my gym!

The first time you try it, it will be very difficult, because you have to let it sit back further on your back (if you squat high bar) it will feel weird, but you have to focus like your front squatting by keeping your elbows up and a tense upper back/lats to stay upright as you descend and spread the floor with your knees.

[jpfaherty]

Wow, insane tempo on the safety bar squats!
