I don't have kids but I like working out at 5:30 because very rarely do you have any important stuff to do that early lol

Thats not a bad idea. Usually my work day starts around 7:00-8:00 and concludes at 5:00-6:00.

The bearings. Olympic lifts on those high dollar bars feel smooth as glass

they really do make a difference but yes there are expensive... a rouge bar for my Oly lifting is good enough for me.

Cadillac of Bar Bells... I swear it will put 25-30 pounds on your Olympic lifts:thumb:

When I ever get my home gym put together an Eleiko Bar will be top on the list.

Good quality bars definitely make a difference I have never worked with an Eleiko bar but I want to

What a great thread. I just started doing powerlifting/oly workouts the past few months and I am addicted. Its max week at my gym so I figured Id share my numbers and update them as I make more progress.

Bench: 345
Squat: 435
Deadlift: 475
Snatch: 220
C&J: Tonights workout so we'll see how that goes.

Lots of strong guys in here though. Keep up the good work.

 

[paint94979]

How long have you been lifting

 

[paint94979]

Broader question how long have you guys been lifting?

 

[countrycorey]

Six years off and on, when my shoulders let me.

3.5-4 years for me Nick, since a 19 year layoff since high school When I raced Moto I didn't want much muscle mass, just cardio, 170-175 is what I raced at... My comp in august I weighed in at 197.5

You?
