nice hands.

i only use chalk, but watching this really helped reduce the callouses i got dramatically.


do what rippetoe says and i also soak my hands in soapy water for a minute and then use a pumice stone to smooth out the callouses. usually do it once every 2 weeks. superstore sells them for $1

i buy em from costco. i believe raw almonds are banned in north america. but the closest you can get to raw is ones they sell at costco. it's not roasted. you can get a big bag on sale sometimes.

Good to know I've been holding weights "correctly" all along.. I always thought of my hands as "hooks" when doing pulling exercises, so it just made sense that the fingers would be holding the weight, not my palms.

like most people, i had the "grip as much and as hard as you can| grip which caused callouses... from lat pull downs to deads... but eventually, naturally, i started to do it the right way using my fingers to hook on. i think the callouses got too painful, and i jsut adapted to another way.. thank god for that

i just dont think you can hang on to something with a deathgrip after a while.

altho it does provide more gripping force as you use the larger first knuckle as the main grip knuckle as opposed to the smaller second.

Do you go to Razor? haha

My low carb diet and cut has started. Hopefully I can maintain most of my strength. Currently at 215lbs @ 18% bf. Goal is to cut down to about 9-10% bf.

That's good to know. I'll be starting my membership up there at the end of the month when my current gym pass expires.

I hope to see you there. I'll be wearing the ed hardy shirt.

sorry for a late 2-3 page reply, i touch my chest and i dont workout like a typical "load the weights, lose the form" douchebag. im turning 19 this year.
I tried 185 without any pre workouts or proper warm ups and could only hit it for 1

Guy was curling at squat rack today...

In other news, my delts and traps will be on fire tomorrow morning. Pretty happy about my cardio, actually able to run on a (relatively) high speed for a decent amount of time compared to before =D

you are right about how the clips are loose. had to do cleans with one clip.

i was running around the whole place looking for plates. turns out some asshole took a lot of plates to the warmup area near the squash courts. there's at least 2 of each size there. ffffffuuuuuu
