fuuuarkkk, I went for 335 today.

275x5, 315x5, then went for 335x3. I was all pumped cause I thought I got it, till I looked at the footage. I didn't go parallel enough (about 75-80 degrees), and I used my knees too much.

Will try again soon

anyways a good training tip: if you're going heavy most the time and doing alotta big compound movements don't worry bout taking weeks/days or even months off...helps in the long run

since this shit got derailed earlier

red_sir 10-30-2012 05:21 PM

I agree with regular deloads. I think of them as a one step back, two steps forward kinda deal. But taking a few months off is too many steps back!

well months is appropriate if you are also doing additional sports that are taxing on your CNS or impact heavy in nature (i.e. sprinting, football, fights sports)

but yea if you just lift then a month is probably too much lol

IIRC i think nfl players oly sprinters take like 1-3 months deload

red_sir 10-30-2012 05:50 PM

That's true. I think in those cases the athletes will switch to lifting for maintenance (which is still deloading).

Sid Vicious 10-30-2012 06:00 PM

good shit neways heres more training tips

speed training is perhaps the best way to help get big numbers on your deadlift/squat/olympic lifts

heres a handy chart

training in the absolute speed/speed endurance will make your lifts go thru the roof

You were always the same strength, except you let your ego get in the way of your training and did half reps of weight you couldn't handle.

Good on you for changing that up though. :thumbsup:

lol since you mentioned that

saw some guy go on smith put on 3 plates and do quarter reps

moved on do freeweight squat with 1 plate, almost loses balance as he takes it out of the rack, then quarter reps again..

strong ego

RRxtar 10-30-2012 08:18 PM

just loaded up 750lbs on the leg press. 2 guys come over "how many sets left?" i say like 1 or 2. they proceed to stand 6 inches away from me while i start repping. cant concentrate because phaggots. tweaked something in lower back.

rrxtar unhappy.

TouringTeg 10-30-2012 09:07 PM

^ damn thats lame. Hope it is a minor.

Dropped weight on squats tonight 245lb 3x5 but still not deep enough. Going to start again at 225. Thinking about doing stronglifts 5x5 again to get my squat up.

I squat to 90 degrees to focus more on quads than glutes. I don't know if that's what you would call a half squat, but I only do 90 degrees for a reason.

J.C 10-30-2012 10:09 PM

well parallel is pretty much the lowest you can go if you're doing low bar
for me a half squat is pretty much anything thats in between not going down and above parallel and a quarter is like not even going down at all lol
