scaryā¦dont ever mess with her :nono:
or maybe if you mess with her⦠sexually⦠nobody will ever mess with you haha.
did i just say that? shivers down spine
thats like 220kg(500lbs me thinks)ā¦theres no way in hell that lady can do that.
edit: if that was 220kg then the bar would have bent on the sides.
lol fake weights.
alright so im not sure if we have discussed this yet.
in regards to pecs, is our only option just consistently hitting the pec major and by way also hitting the minor? what im getting at is, is there an exercise to work the bottom part of pec. major?, or just looking for the name of the muscle that creates the bottom rounded part of the chest, that helps it extrude from the torso?

are we supposed to treat that as just one muscle we work out over and over or can it be broken down into smaller parts? (mainly looking to work beneath the nipple).
god my diction is terrible when trying to ask this, anyone understand me? ha.
ive been watching there vids since 07. learned alot of grip related stuff from them. are u into grip/bending?
treat chest as one muscle.
typically for the bottom part of the chest you can do decline press, for the upper part you can do incline press, and for the inner part you can do flies.
but really you should just concentrate on flat press the most.
damn i was hoping that wasnt the case!
whyās that?
iād just rather hit diff sections of the chest real hard, idk, just me i guess
Na, but Iāve been recently watching new vids theyāve been putting up. They do all types of hard ass training.
Anyone ever been on Prednisone? This stuff is killing me. Gained 15-20 pounds in 2 months (all fat+water) and thereās no stopping the appetite. Iāve never been heavier than 155 pounds in my life so walking around at 170 just feels weird, especially with all this fat around my abs. Just came down to 40mg/day so hopefully I can curb the weight gain some.
i have, though I did not get any of the side effects. Side effects normally do not effect me with any drug, actually. water retention is minor if i recall, so just up the cardio and gradually wean yourself from the drug.
iāve been doing 5x5 strength training the past few weeks and itās been great. iāve been increasing my squats 5 lbs. every time i workout so far like iām supposed to. however, thereās going to be a point when iām not going to finish 5 sets and fail. my question is how do i let the bar fall in a safe manner so that i donāt hurt myself? iām using a rack with safety catches that i place about 3~4 inches below the bar at the lowest point in my squat.
do i just let go of the bar and let it drop/roll off my back when iām at the lowest squat position? or do i lean back? not sure at all how to let the bar fall safely. thanks in advance.
Good to hear that someone is actually doing the 5x5 program. Are you using Bill Starrās program? When I first started weightlifting seriously I used a similar program but with olympic weightlifting lifts. You should let the bar go when you are at your lowest squat positionā¦I assume that your lowest squat position is lower then parallel and it should be.
Safest way? Have somebody who can spot you, Iām sure most people will agree. Otherwise I donāt know, as Iāve never done anything major that can injure me without somebody spotting me.
Just now noticed this thread, and I did just get back from the Arnold Classic yesterday, so now Iām loaded up on a bunch of free samples (probably made over 10x the amount the ticket cost).
damn wish I was there. did you pass by the gnc grip gauntlet?
iām actually using stronglifts.comās 5x5 strength training. and yea, my hip is parallel to the floor.
