The Shack: This is Most Likely the Last Thread

[Farley1324]

That said, here is my daily carry gun (sub compact 9mm Glock), loaded with my typical carry setup (10 round mag, 11 rounds total), about one shot per second, at 21 feet...all headshots. (holes in body were there from an earlier run)

^ Will have to download.

For most people (military, law enforcement, self defense, whatever) the default aiming point is going to be COM (center of mass) or high COM, for a variety of reasons. Intentionally headshots aren't a terribly common thing, really, in the real world of defensive shooting.

Makes sense.

The only stage where I had complete misses wasn't on the video. It required shooting the rifle and the pistol from the right side and the left side, with only one hand for the pistol. I really need to work on my left hand only pistol shooting.

How hard is the trigger to press? I heard there are 'hard and soft' triggers, and women mostly go for the 'soft' kind where very little effort is required to pull the trigger. I think that is incredibly dumb because the gun can go off accidentally.

GJFM. Now, let's go and kill some zombies.

Ever since I started my low-rep training, I've been ravenous. What gives? I always thought you tend to eat more when doing 6-8 reps.

Heavy weight makes you hungry

I did some back raises today for some extra glute/ham work. Felt good. You should try them Manly.

Oh yea Adam?

I don't enjoy doing legs anymore. Seems like a chore now. My lower back is so tight that legs just makes my body feel bad.

Post your routine.

[chazzy1864]

If you don't like it, change it.

[adamdavidson47]

Oh yea Adam?

Yeah, I think it's probably the same thing that Dom mentioned in your journal. On the 45 degree Hyper extension station, but keep a stiff, rigid lower back. Felt good on the glutes and hamstrings.

Why do women scream so much? Like when two guys are fighting (even if they're not going to hurt the women)? "STOP IT! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! OMG!"

It's all they know to do. Scream so that a man will come do what they cannot. It's evolutionary, I recon.

No, I didn't mean if they were in jeopardy; they scream non-stop even if they're not involved in said fight. It's like the act of fighting/brawling is somehow hurting them mentally. I have noticed this with all kinds of women - young, old, rich, poor.

Not involved in any way? Completely indifferent to what happens/who wins?

I wouldn't say they are completely indifferent. The women have known both parties for a while, but party 'B' becomes the bad guy (for unknown reasons like bad day/too much booze etc) for the time being, and party 'A' is the good guy. When party A keeps beating the crap out of B's ass, the women start screaming and tell A to stop.

The women were never going to get hurt. That was my point.

Believe it or not, Lu, some people care about others getting hurt. Hence the screaming.

I guess.

I'm watching TWD again (from the start). One particular scene reminded me of a few past events, which is why I asked that question.

[chazzy1864]

Also, women think that screaming louder and louder will prevent whatever is currently happening from continuing.


It only makes it worse.

I was having a similar issue from an older low back injury. I changed my routine from a heavy bb type workout to more of an athletic approach with lots of stretching and foam rolling. Working on flexibility has made the biggest difference I thuroughly foam roll before each workout and stretch for about 15 min after each workout. I took out all of my heavy squating and pressing did some experimenting and found a lot of good exercises you can do that put less direct stress on the spine but still engage your core quite a bit. Im not saying these are overall better exercises but if you are that tight and uncomfortable it may be a better option depending on what your current routine is.







Those plus some lunge/stepup variations, plyometrics, and stretching/rolling. For plyos i have been doing the p90x plyometric workout you should be able to find some youtube videos that show the workout and steal some of their circuits.

[chazzy1864]

That isn't you in the vids is it?

[The Shoeless Wonder]

One thing that most people (newbs) seem to forget is, you don't have to train the squat heavy in order for it to improve. Lou Simmons and Paul Carter say the same thing. Google their articles. IIRC, using between 65 and 82% proved to give lifters the fastest strength boost.

If we clean house on that board like we should, perhaps we'll need some more in the near future

Oh, I made my final payment on my truck today. (i think, gotta make sure there isn't change left)


Happy to have some extra cash in my pocket meow.

Not really. We have seven active board members who won't leave like the others did.

[Farley1324]

7 is a good number.

Nice and odd.
