The Official PL Family Appreciation Thread: Part XI

[simp3204]

On a different note I hit a 435lbs close grip but then that goodness was balanced out by me almost falling flat on my face with a 465lbs squat.

It was embarrassing.

Congrats on the CGBP. What happened with the squat?

Try being less homosexual.

You are right....

Back to not being able to gain weight, discussing shoe color and giving advice on drawn portraits of young ladies.

The ending was anticlimactic, but good job.

Nice showing...I'm really impressed with your axel clean...how much did your lungs want to burst with the sandbag/sled medley...

You're jacked bro but cut that ******* mop top.

edit: holy poo I've competed with a kid that looks just like you, hair and all, and was vegetarian, but he wasn't 21.

That was awesome.


And Arian would you please do your knees and back a favor and finally learn how to sit back. Wall squats man. If you don't want to do box squats stand facing a wall and just start squatting with out touching it. Keel doing it and keep inching forward until your toes touch the wall. This is good dynamic stretching, part of a warm up so it won't mess up your precious programming, and teach you to sit back or fall back.

The mop top is a symbol of being the biggest/strongest vegetarian in the universe.

Not as much as if I would have been able to shoulder the sandbag like I wanted to....but yeah....hamstrings were cramping on the push. Not very fun. There was some definite parting of stomach contents during that event.

You should check out Patrik Baboumian and rethink that statement...

He became a vegetarian at 26 years old, it doesn't count. I have a been a veggie since I was 9.

Also, still strongest natty veggiesumerian.

are your parents vegetarian?

[LegosInMyEgos]

nope, just me out of my entire family.

I hear that...I puked a little trying farmers walk last week even though I was using baby weights...the pressure in your head when you're walking is intense...

[Liftamulti]

That's pretty crazy that you started when you were 9 then.

[LegosInMyEgos]

I get that a lot.

Dude, I wanted to give the portrait to my friend as a present since the other dog in the pic is his. But now I kinda wanna keep it for myself lol. Maybe I'll have you draw another one of just my dog that I can keep.

Where did this come from? I didn't even video my back squat today. Also, I've never had knee pain. Only lower back pain the past couple months. I use to sit back better than I do now, so I still don't think it's form its mobility. Though I have tried wall squats before and I can get pretty far down but not to depth before I kind of hit an invisible wall and can't go down anymore. Maybe I'll video myself doing it on Wednesday so you can see what I'm talking about.

Awesome work, sweet axle clean. That sandbag carry looked like a duck walk and it made me cringe. Duck walks are evil.

[thom2355]

I hear that...I puked a little trying farmers walk last week even though I was using baby weights...the pressure in your head when you're walking is intense...

It is....which is why you have to learn to breathe a short breath, walk 3-4 steps and repeat. Towards the end of a heavy run, I tend to hold my breath then proceed to want to die afterwards.

Duck walks are a great event for me! Something that long legs helps with.

That said....I wanted that sandbag much higher up, but the clock was ticking and I had to get going. No time to mess around. It was terrible.

[Jason2459]

Where did this come from? .

From all of your squat and now front squat videos and having said it several times already.

[arian11]

Well I have switched to high bar, which I'm still trying to figure out. Bar path seems to look better than my horrific low bar squats. I never front squat though so, yes, my form is beyond horrific. My heels freakin came up at the bottom lol. I'm getting stronger with horrific form though, technique is overrated lololol.

About how far do you get into your runs until you start taking breaths? I tend to exhale and start the short breaths as soon as I stand with the weight but have been told to hold it as long as I can...

Well I'd do. And cheaper because its one.

I just started front squatting this week and it felt bizarre.

I would say about 8-10 steps. I like to keep my air until I get stabilized and moving. Otherwise (especially with the yoke) you will start to waiver and the weight will swing. Recovering from that sucks. Once everything is stable I take breaths, but that is mostly an after thought.

gjdm. When it went silent during the axle it reminded me of those movies when something gets really intense (i.e. saving private ryan or children of men).
