    I must be doing it wrong. Especially with it so hot outside, before I start lifting I do 5-10 min warmup, most of which is biking/jogging to the gym. Get the gym, do 1-3 minutes of warmup, start warming up for the big lift of the day -- either squat or deadlift. That's it.

    Ok ****, I'm doing WAY more than 12 sets in an hour. Lets see, today I did 12min eliptical warmup, about 15 minutes stretching including shoulder warmup, then I did 2x tri-sets of two sets each and one quad-set of 2 sets. Plus 2 sets of farmers walks. Technically, all told that would be 22 sets...

    Random health and exercise thoughts

    Now it's pretty easy for me to think of a recomp along a 1-2 year timeframe, because I enjoy lifting weights - it's almost the only hobby I've kept on doing (except guitar, ofc). For someone who isn't into all this it's probably a shitload harder. I workout because I love it and need it to keep...

    Got the tough mudder coming up in a couple weeks. Need to build up my cardio/endurance to do the event. Any strength exercises I do are limited to pushups, some dips, and bodyweight pullups. Once that's over, I'm jumping back on the SPBR. You know you don't have to 100% cardio just to finish a...

    Brooks Brothers Suit Fits - Fitzgerald v. Regent

    The Madison is a little boxy for me too. I was hoping to get a Fitz, but I have a pretty athletic build and the pants ended up being too tight around the thighs. A shame.

    squats

    you have to purposefully stay tight, inhale on the way down, forcefully exhale on the extention/way up. powerlifting is a completely different animal. for bodybuilding, however, breathing is very important. Squatting should be done the same whether it's for power or for mass. You absolutely...

    squats

    I like the cage just fine, but how do you dump it if you are stuck at the bottom? wouldnt it fall in your lap? Am I just overthinking all this? Does the human body tend to have enough force to push the bar away before it falls on your foot, ankle, etc? The only failsafe I can think of is if...

    squats

    I squat with rubber plates, not a cage. So when I have to dump I just release the bar backwards and jump/hop forward. Never had a problem with it.

    squats

    Nice. I'm also getting back into lifting today with the GSLP (bought the e-book yesterday). How much did you reduce your 3x5 squat weight for your first GSLP workout? I dropped 10% from my top 3x5.
