haha... what were you saying on OR's journal about reps? there's more than 60 reps on the bench alone here! don't get me wrong... I like reps! the weight you're pushing just shows me how much work I've got to do on the bench myself

[NickAus]

Strong work in here....nice training!!

Hope those forearms are ok soon bro!!

Whats your weight?

haha its the style of training mac! they call it a dynamic effort day/speed.. applying as much force as possible to the bench reps but its also a higher volume/lower intensity day! call it what you like haha! we all have ways to go my friend! can never be strong enough!

thanks nic... and yeah, me too, have to get the ice out, the rope curls tend to help alot...

i am sitting at about 245lbs at the moment, slowly making my way up to 265(NEW IPF CLASSES) hopefully, im still realtively young (i think at 20) so trying to build a big strong foundation as i go! some strong boys on these boards though!

Two great speed days with the bench and squats! Ummm, yeah 20 is relatively young LOL. You have a bright future in the sport.

great log, I'll be keeping up with this. I also lift raw for now and use westside methods.

thanks for the F6 I'm going to "attempt" to teach myself how to use it, I may do a geared meet sometime in the future.

thanks johhny! i enjoy training alot more when using WS methods, think thats half the battle with this sport, there are dark times and you have to plow through but if you are enjoying more PR's come easier!

Hey man nice work here. Keep it up bro

unsure if thats a PR or not to be honest! its quite possible, training partner pulled 650 tonight raw... envy is not accurate enough to describe my feelings towards his deadlift powers... been thinking alot about my pull lately though and think i need to attack it from in a new way, we'll see... also looks as if i might not be doing my nationals now.. biggest meet of my year over here and might not be able to go, T'riffic!

[Off Road]

I thought 280 x 1 was pretty nice. Then I saw it was inclined with a close grip. That's a lot more than nice, it's dang strong. Nice job.

[muscle_g]

He3ck yea it was strong!! I had no idea you were so young!!

[Coke]

There's always next time for the nationals if you can't make it for now, good luck either way.
