The Official PL Family Appreciation Thread: Part XI

[simp3204]

I agree with Rogue, not to the extent of you two, but just getting pricing on several items resulted in prompt replies and good tone.

EFS seems a bit harsh at times, but they are rather short handed from my understanding and I think we can all relate to that a little bit. In the end, I had a great experience with them, but it was definitely me driving the ship....not them.

I felt EFS was pretty short with me when I emailed them about their wrist wraps falling apart the 2nd time I used them. They did send me another pair, but they definitely weren't the nicest customer service reps I've dealt with.

Anyone else hate video game boss fights as much as me. Couldn't be final guy before the end of the game for 3 hours. Just went on YouTube and saw how someone did it got it 2nd try fml

All I have to say is Demon's Souls and Dark Souls. Come at me bro!!!

You could use another 40-50 lbs. That was a pretty nice bench though.

lol you mean on the bar or my bodyweight? Thanks man. Tell Dan I'm comin for him lol.

Control the weight at the bottom and keep your hips up the whole time. You're dropping the weight and then using your legs to get it started again.

Yeah I noticed after 315 that my triceps would kinda give out on the bottom of the descent and the weight would kinda drop onto my chest. I never have that problem with under 315 though. As for keeping my hips up, I'll have to try and be more conscious of that. My glutes get really sore doing ME benching because of staying tight in my lower body (srs). Seems like this is related to keeping the hips locked up and not being able to when my glutes are sore lol.

Elitefts definitely has a better selection and quality of product overall, but the site is such a POS and there are literally no specs for 90% of their products. That and the fact that shipping is like $9000 and 6-8 weeks on half their stuff, I ended up ordering my power rack from Rogue.

Nothing worse than waking up half an hour before your alarm goes off. Ugh.

It's your lats that are giving out at the bottom. Focus on pulling your elbows in and keeping your hips up (even if your glutes are sore) and you should be fine.

Me too. It sucks.

Happens to me all the time. Haven't heard my alarm in months. But I just say screw it and go into work earlier, like right now, so that I can leave earlier.

[Liftamulti]

I prefer it. It's better to wake up naturally than to the sound of SSSSSSHHHHHHHHHHVMSWJVHSHSHSHHVHHDHSHCHSHCHSHCHSJK SKJDHSJDSK (I have my alarm set to static).

How about when you pass out on the couch and your wife wakes you up and tells you to go to bed...

My wife try's to get me to wake up before my alarm goes off all the time and she gets a few cuss words before I fall back to sleep.

How about getting woken up to a screaming girlfriend 6 hours before you first class telling you that she (I) have to drive to a town 30 minutes away and pick up something from the pundit (hindu priest) before his flight back home. By the time we get there he already left, get back to school, car is running on E...

I'd much rather deal with screaming babies...you just shake em and they go back to sleep...

Perhaps at 5'7" 160 lbs you may not get that there are other things to look for in vehicles other than that European style performance stuff....such as a wide enough seat, leg room and not having to ride with alligator arms. Straight lining is nice and relaxing anyways. If I want a thrill....there are many other options.

yeah, folding up on a ricer for hours at a time is not my idea of fun. sitting back on a road glide on a two lane through the country sounds great though.

nothing beats smashing country lanes on a 4-600 red lining all the way crossing lanes, scrapping pannels/limbs
