The Juice Journal - 5/3/1

[Juicemw]

I'm from CA but lived in Oregon since 2006. Lived up here through highschool from 1999-2003.

Push a prowler when the weather permits then. Either way it's the best tool to get both strength and conditioning in. I'm going to be buying one soon I hope for when the weather turns around. Get a couple of sand bangs or something from like Home Depot and go to work on my conditioning.

Just looked up what it is. Those are sick I've seen them before.

Yup they sure are and you can pickone up from Elitefts.com for like $100 tops. If you have weights you can throw it on there or some sand bags, etc and go to work. I want to get one to use during the summer since I live in a cul de sac area.

You had more in you on your top set of squats. You should of kept pushing instead of racking the barbell.

SLDL looked fine to me and the back was in a good position.

The only reason I didn't go for more is I felt like I pushed up and forward on my last rep. Looking at the tape, it actually doesn't look that bad though, which sucks haha. Thanks for the SLDL..I just feel like im typically not feeling it in my Hams enough..idk

[Anthony21]

I prefer a slight knee bend/RDL.

Work on pushing your hips and glutes back, bring the bar to below knee level and you should feel it in your hams.

[MakeGoBoom]

Everything looked pretty solid to me man. I prefer rdl as well but ce la vie. Weight is still relatively low but it will come up soon. Looking strong dude

[The Big Sleep]

squats looked good, SLDLs were pretty solid too but to make them more efficient/effective try not locking out at the top. This will keep tension on your hams and glutes versus putting unnecessary stress on your low back/spine.

Thanks boom. I'm glad to see my squat form looks good after just a few weeks ago when it needed some tweaking. Yeah the weight is still pretty low, so much nicer squatting like that and being deep and free then when I was still back at the old gym squatting on a smith!

Sounds good man, I'll try that out next week! THanks sleep

[Juicemw]

Legs are feeling it today, including my hammies, so I guess things are all good.

Start of cycle 2; week3 Today. Can't wait to get out of work and hit OHP and my shoulders and BI's Day. Crazy how fast these first 2 cycles are going by. (granted I skipped week 4's deload in the first cycle) but I thoroughly enjoy this routine.

Thanks man. The only thing Ive been struggling with is the Curls of all things..I would say that maybe I'm just gassed by the end of the workout, but nothing I'm doing is really hitting my Bi's at all so that cant be it. The last few weeks I've struggled with them. I mean the pump and size I get is great so it's not a huge complaint, but I'd really like to be getting better rep counts out of all 4 sets.

If curls are your only problem, you're doing pretty well. Nice workout! Gonna be doing a one plater for reps soon on OHP.

Yeah I guess that's true. And as for 1 plater I know I can't wait, I was thinking about that yesterday as I had 35's and 5's on.

good stuff. I always check mine in bed when I first wake up, or once I sit down at the office at work.
