really strong jari, a lot of volume there followed by a lot of weight. always helps to have the ego on the line imo. failing is bad enough, failing when others are starring is unacceptable.... semi srs. real strong either way

Indeed, very tasty girls too, and I love their tight outfit too..
I must get used to the competion standard and form. At the bro day I went for EZ-bar and Dumbells. At thursdays I have to get adapted to straight bar and heavier loads.
lol, fail wasn't an option at deadlift today. But I think I have made a good progress at them, I wish the presses could show the same results. But then again, I got a delay on upper body when I started to lift so I guess I have be patient..my workout log -> http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php?t=147657213

thx breh! It's really a mystery. The bed is awesome, bedroom temperature is fine, mrs U leaves me undisturbed ( unless we are up something...), I use to drink camomille tea, and try relax with computers, cell phones and stuff. Still the mind is milling on highest gear.
I guess I have take another look at that "mindfullness" stuff..my workout log -> http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php?t=147657213

Read a nice boring book.
Avoid the computer or cell phone for a day or two. The blue light triggers the brain that it's time to get up/stay awake.
Or if you can change the colour temp to be a warmer hue at night, that way you play into your bodies natural tendencies.
Meditation can also be helpful.the latest and greatest in training...or whatever.

All of this.
You can also listen to relaxing music. Make sure your bedroom is extremely dark (no lights from anything if possible) and you're sleeping in a good position (i.e. not on your stomach). If you sleep on your side, put a pillow between your legs and make sure the pillow(s) your head lays on create a neutral spine alignment. If you sleep on your back, put a pillow under your legs to prevent your body from hyperextending. This reduces stress on your body while sleeping and improves the quality of your sleep. Go for a walk, stretch and/or do some yoga an hour or so before bed to wind down.Lifting Log: http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php?t=147159883

Would suggest meditation as well. I also stop eating at least an hour before I go to bed and relax on the couch..........it helps if you have some bad Spanish mami between your legs too but that's optional.

Mirin' your pushing and pulling.
Those chins and dips are great(translation: old codger = jealous).
About the sleep thing. Was really insomniac when ill in my forties. Wife got me one of those relaxation tapes from Dr Hillary Jones. Can't remember if it was a CD or one of those ancient cassettes lo.
Never heard the end of the music/hypnosis. Lights out.
Another thing to look into is Autogenic Training. A sort of self hypnosis/meditation, without the cultural baggage of something like Transcendental Meditation. Did a lot of AT for the pain. Often before I got halfway through a session.......ZZZZZZZ.
Sleep well brother.Beginners:

Beyond novice, 5 3 1 or see above:)
Unless it is obvious to anyone who isn't blind that you lift weights, you might still benefit from a little more attention to big basic barbell exercises for enough reps:).

helpful daughter
Cycle 6 Wave 2 Squat 1 day sunday 10 february 2013
Hola Brotatoes!
As headline suggest, I had my daughter and her friend as guests at my gym, the did their own workouts but were helpful spotting at the top sets. Had to humiliate myself with the ladies belt again. An afternoon training just after a coffee break so I was fed and jacked up!
Power Cleans
*10 x 20 kg 45lbs])
*10 x 40 kg ( 88 lbs]
*5 x 50 kg [110lbs]
*5 x 60 kg [132lbs] -nice racking and more confidence..
*3 x 70 kg ( 154 lbs) - not perfect, but not bad so..
*1 x 75 kg ( 165 lbs)*- PR! - holy cow!
Squats
warm up sets
*5 x 65 kg ( 143 lbs]
*5 x 80 kg ( 176lbs]
*3 x 90 kg ( 198lbs)
working sets
*5 x 105 kg ( 209 lbs)
*3 x 120 kg ( 265 lbs)
*1 x 135 kg ( 297 lbs) - more confidence on depth with spotters
singles
*1 x 145 kg ( 319 lbs) - PR ! - Not ATG but pararell!
*1 x 145 kg ( 319lbs) - I fought it up, maybe the audience encouraged me to not fail..
different ab work demonstrations
* 10 x Hanging pikes
* 10 x Hanging legs
* 10 x Roman chair
* 10 x Crunches
* 10 x Dragon flags
* 2 x 10 x Ab coaster @ 25 kg ( 55 lbs) - the girls wanted to know what ab work I prefered so I gave them the grand tour.
Snatch Grip Deadlifts
* 5 x 110 kg ( 242 lbs)
* 5 x 110 kg ( 242 lbs)
* 5 x 110 kg ( 242 lbs)
* 5 x 110 kg ( 242 lbs)
* 5 x 110 kg ( 242 lbs) - decided to go for this, good grip training.
Front Squats - clean grip
4 x 8 x 60 kg ( 132 lbs) - because the training room was busy with an aerobics class, else it would have been DB walks..
Seated Calf presses
* 30 x 40kg ( 88 lbs)
* 30 x 40kg ( 88 lbs) - too light
* 20 x 60kg ( 132 lbs) - still too light
* 10 x 80kg ( 176 lbs)
* 30 x 40kg ( 88 lbs)
Nice to have grandsons at visit the same day and spending time with my pretty daughter. It was an awesome day.
