Same
During any working set (80%+ for me) I take exorbitantly long breaks
Had 2x5 at 80% for squat today and there's no way I'm not taking at least a couple minutes
Between work sets I take 8 minutes minimum. I find a few extra minutes really makes a difference
definitely makes my workouts long though
Goal is to be practically crawling out of the gym by the end of my workouts
Workout for leg day here in a few minutes
Heavy bench day today calls for 800mg of Ibuprofen so that my forearm tendinitis doesn't make me drop the bar. Need to survive this so that I can make it to the conference next week
@Nick-NJ hope it goes well man, sounds rough
Survived and hit a nice overhead press volume PR!
Thanks @ThisIsChris
is it a bad idea to work out on a day you're doing an all day fast?
Just be aware of your body and keep the intensity moderate
You'll be fine, I fast once a week and it's all good
595 deadlift PR after squats today, boys. 605 next week
fugg!
Debating if I should lift or not tonight. Body is still aching from last week's back day. Should I take another rest day and hit it hard tomorrow?
depends on what kinda soreness
@Deleted User It's not debilitating, but it still feels like someone took a sledgehammer to my lower back
f
like instead of bb rows, seal rows or something
Getting that concrete feeling in my lower back never affects my lift just my mindset. But that’s just my experience
@Suomi Stronk a whole week of DOMS?
You did too much.
Try this: death by pull up. Every minute on the minute you do a pull up and with each minute you do another. IE, minute 1 is one pull up and minute two is 2 pull ups. So on and so forth until you fail.
sounds like pain
i love it
will be there for an hour
1 pull-up a minute
Does anyone here use a landmine in their workouts? I did legs and back with it and it was one of the best workouts I've ever had. Wondering about others experiences and if deadlifting/squatting with it is worth my time.
Have never used in all my years of lifting but have always thought about trying
Took a few more days off cause ankle and made today my first day back. Nothing special just sevens at 50-60% squat and bench, deadlift 80ish% for 5 and rdls
Lol pulled a chill 475 today after 455 triple. Feeling good and followed with front squat, deadhang pull-up superset
Nice
When are you planning on competing next?
In the fall of this week so like 6 months from now
Is squatting 315 without a belt stupid?
I weigh 168 btw
Not necessarily
But it's probably best to use a belt if you're worried about it
