Thanks Albert and Nick for the help! I really want to get this right. This video is from this morning. I spent a good 20 reps just focusing on form with 135 on the bar. That first video Albert posted was a big help. Everything I was doing was wrong. Lol. My chin wasn't tucked, my shoulders weren't back enough, etc. See what you think this time. It felt much better. I didn't feel like I was using my lower back as much. Way more glutes & quads! :thumb:

Much better Chris! Keep the weights lighter and focus on the form, heavy weight comes later, with no trips to snap city:hug: I read somewhere it takes like 3-400 reps to ingrain a motor pattern and like 3-4000 reps to break a bad one...

Could you imagine 3-5k deads or squats to fix bad form...f me that'd be like a year

At the end of the first video you posted, he says the same thing. I might try to do deads twice a week at light weight to train my muscle memory.

Ok. Need someone's number so I can see you the video of me squatting. I'm not smart enough to post videos. Also have a short deadline video. My gawd I feel that's a whole lot of ugliness for form. Anywho someone let me know

Brock, I will see if I can figure out the number to my I-touch it can get messages and videos. My work phone is a flipper:rofl: I get strange looks when I whip that bad boy out.

So I jumped into high bar squats last week with a little to much zeal... I went up to 315 it felt pretty good but made my back pretty angry the next day up until yesterday.

First day back in the gym in a bit...
Bench
135x15
185x10
225x5
240x2sx10r woof these f-ers felt heavy:rofl:
260x2sx8r worse...
300x2sx3r
300x2
Close grip feet up paused
225x2sx8r
225x3sx6r
Back is feeling good so F-it lets dead lift:thumb:
trap bar deads (hex bar)
135x10
225x10
315x8
315x3sx5r
Rack pulls from just below the knee cap (puts less tension on the low back instead of pulling from the floor)
135x12
225x10
315x10
405x2sx5r
Bent rows
135x2sx10r
225x4sx5r
135x20
Decided to not tempt fate anymore and i was still walking with lead in my pencil.
Stretched and rolled felt pretty decent but weak... Stepped on the scale heading out of the gym covered in sweat in shorts, socks and a tank 206 on the money:thumb: No wonder I felt weak, my bench always takes the biggest hit when I drop weight. Hell with It, I gotta look pretty like Corbin and Waid:hug:

That's a great workout, I've done it multiple times throughout the years.

Actually one of the first workouts I ever did. Was thinking to myself the other day I need to do it again when I can get more time at the gym

 

[minerigger]

But, decided to try to workout today, other than being slower than normal, finished it.

Thanks Albert, it was time, he was 15 and starting to have his body finally shut down on him.

I'm such a wuss with critters anymore, I made the wife take our Yorkie in a few years ago to be put down because I wasn't man enough...

Sounds like he had a nice long life.

Sorry to hear about the loss of your little buddy. I put down 2 of my dogs...one the shitty way out at the ranch. I have a hard time wanting another animal after that due to the pain that comes with losing them.


So did calves Monday with chest and triceps. Felt fine until and hr ago. Started stretching so I could warm up and get loose and do some HIIT cardio on the treadmill, bam out of nowhere they went rock hard and I can barely stand up right now it hurts so effing bad. I dunno wtf happened but it can f off. Put some icy hot on them to try and get them cold then hot and I'll try and massage em out. Need em to cooperate as tomorrow is shoulders, traps, and calves again


Oh and anyone care to evaluate my videos? I can trim the squat one down to 30 sec so I can send it
