Jesus, that is one CREEPY ass family

Smolov has you doing 136 work squats at a minimum of 70% of your 1rm a week. More then half of those reps are in sets of 9 or 7, that will make you grow fuck loads. Ran it twice, always put loads of size on my legs.

Edit: fucking hell at erics squat speed. Don't really understand why he psyches himselves up for 550lb squats though when he's maxing at 906lb. I'm not spending a minute prepping for a 200lb single.

Because the top 50 I listed are the "current" top 50 meaning they're lifts from the last 12 months.

The #100 is off the list for the top lifters since 2007.

I did it to give you a reference of where to 50th person stood in a slightly larger picture.


Looks great on you man!


Yes.

Any recommendations for glute / ham raises? Goodmornings?

RDL

Bunch of dudes do that @ gym. I was always curious...will attempt next week.



like a horse

Personally like RDL over GHR or goodmornings...easiest to get form right, and can go heavy for 5 reps.

Took some Bronkaid to see if it can clear up my chest so I'm not coughing anymore, ffs this shit is annoying.

It does work for its intended purpose quite well too.

Felt like a boss on medicine rotation when I recommended we give some bronkaid to congested patient and it worked like a charm. Might help them lose weight too.

Inb4 they have heart attack :-/

Worked after about half an hour, I can already breath clearly and am no longer coughing.

Was supposed to pause bench 325x2x5 yesterday.

Misloaded my first working set by accident and put on 335 instead of 325.

Was disappointed for a split second until I realized that I just tripled my 1RM from exactly 11 weeks ago.




Going for 330x2x5 next week! I won't misload this time haha

being at a new job ive been working longer hours and neglecting the gym, a shitty contrast to the couple weeks off where I was in the gym daily at off peak hours. Thanks, guys for the inspo to get back in there during the week. 

glorious day in america the beautiful yesterday. panera bread and mrs fields, how you feed my soul. finished the day off with wendys, unintentional cheat day glory. may have done a few sets of dips and db rows at denhams because i am that guy

my fuck is michigan dirty though, sorry APK/knucks. no aesthetic women in the state confirm/deny??

also +1 on RDL, i think its my favourite lift.

Just did RDL today, 2 sets of 6 with 220lbs after lying leg curls. Trying to make sure i get the form right.
