You may delay, but time will not.
Nothing is so fatiguing as the eternal hanging on of an uncompleted task.
Don’t wait for moods. You accomplish nothing if you do that. Your mind must know it has got to get down to work.
Yesterday is a cancelled cheque. Tomorrow is a promissory note. Today is the only cash you have, so spend it wisely.
If you do give up though just think. The sooner I fall behind, the more time I have to catch up.

Hell yes this thread is what I need. I tried making one in the fatloss forum and noone thought it was a good enough idea to post.

That is a video of my 415lb PR. Since then I have worked on my form and started pulling off a platform instead of off the ground. it increases the ROM tremendously and has helped my off the floor strength ALOT, just need to do some grip training. Static holds here I come

Hit a PR on Deadlifts today too, 20lb pr, 435lbs. Failed on 455 but the lift was doomed from the start when my hips shot up. Still got it to about my knees though

Thanks a lot TPO (abbreviation of TheProgressiveOneOriginally Posted by TheProgressiveOne
) ! How's your squat comin' along?
"taking a week off will loose gains" is pure bro science. In fact taking a week off will BOOST your gains and strength. One of the best plateau busters. But I gotta say, 3 miles, kudos to you midniteOG, I haven't done cardio since March 2010, so it's officially been a year!Originally Posted by midniteOG

Squat 300lbs for 10 reps today. Felt pretty good, most I have ever tried for on squats feel like I could have done more though.

300lbs ain't little man. Yeah you're right, if you did 300 for 10 then you could've done more. Hopefully your next post on here would be "Squat 320" or even 350!!Originally Posted by jetlynk

No beast numbers for you guys, but I gained about 30lbs prior to deployment and my goal by the time I left was to get down to 180 (realistic goal)
Came out here at 226, been here a little over 3 months, and am 5lbs away from my 180 goal! Pretty excited..

There's nothing like realizing you're so close to your goal. You've reached too far, only a few more pounds to lose!Originally Posted by payitoff

hit PR with confidence, motivation, view on life, and etc. recently. that counts more than any lift! haha but I've been moving up on my lifts, and supersetting arms has been a great success. Every time I finish an exasperating superset I thought I couldn't do....idk I kinda go berserk....good thing I W.O. at home prolly...
I thank God for my success.
