    It did move extremely well and I'd be lying if I said I wasn't a little surprised. Thank you! About a little over 3 weeks out and ready to see how well progress has been made.

    I agree! Speed off the floor was good and it was a complete smooth motion all the way to the top.

    Thank you m8! What's funny is, next week, I may not even be able to break the floor with it.

    Been there, done that. Not with that kind of weight but with 405. Banged it out one week, next I was lucky to break the floor with 375. Sometimes "kitten" gets weird with the ol' body.

    Same. I watched 3 teammates compete in the same flight, 1 teammate take his weight class, and Jamal Browner who won overall in that flight with a 495 wilks had his first meet at a local event I was lifting in back in July.

    Got some more I'm watching today. It's been awesome so far.

    400x11 deadlift top set, rep goal achieved. Slept like hell last night, and woke with a sore throat and lower back pain and with a strain in my upper left hamstring from Wednesdays training. I almost considered not training today. I had to tweak my deadlift form as I realized in my warm-ups I was hinging in the small of my back and not my hips, which I remedied by a slightly wider stance in my set-up, and I didn't rush set breaks or the reps. I relaxed and took my sweet time. Really wish I was at the Arnold today cheering my friends on. Good session despite all my old man pains.

    Amazing volume

    Thanks Chris! If I wasn't a little roughed up I could have gone for another rep or two but why risk it?

    I might be behind, because I just saw McHoney's 3rd missed squat at 9:22 CST. Don't spoil it!!! LOL

    ETA: I'm all caught up now, and you're right. That was more exciting to me than the Super Bowl... (I hate NFL though).

    I made the comment between 2nd and 3rd attempt because right after the last lifter I had breakfast (6 pancakes, 4 scrambled eggs) and had to hedge the timing lol. Still drama in 2nd round

    Hooray squat and DL PR on the same day! I planned a testish day to get a feel for where my squat and deadlift are so I can plan prep for my May meet. No bench since I'm dealing with a shoulder impingement from sleeping like an idiot. It has improved, but I didn't want to put additional strain on things if I didn't have to. Hopefully it'll be in great shape in another 2 months.

    BW 185 lbs (84kg). Squat was 360 lbs (~163kg) and a 10 lb PR. Dead is 430 (~195kg) and a 20lb PR. Password is 'mfp' No more heavy heavy things for a while :'( so I'll have to live vicariously through this thread and IG. :smiley:



    I want to be you. :o

    Sorry for the poor quality, but I'm pretty fired up about how fast this 535 single moved!


    That was fast!

    Are you implying I should wait till the gym is quiet for guilt free farts?

    #whoops


    Re- Arnold- my friend competed Friday- he didn't even place. The judges said he was to hard. (the jokes are now endless)- such a effing shame- he was easily the biggest and most cut looking dude on the stage. He looked amazing for his weight class at 190.

    Finally some Arnold bodybuilding talk. I didn't watch any of the lifting because I suck.
    I did however watch the female physique competitors routines. One lost her top and ones music was effed up to the point she was like wtf several times.
    It was a pretty eventful apparently....

    I'm sad I missed quite a bit of it- my gym has several people who attended- it was a massive spectacular. My friend got some shots with Arnold while he was working the ON booth.

    I'll have to go back and watch some videos- I missed some of the women's drama- I get annoyed watching the women (sorrrrrry)

    The bikini girls just annoy me- I'm sorry to anyone who wants to do it- I just get annoyed with that category.
    And the physique girls are getting SO big I question the natty aspect- and it makes me sad.

    I love womens bodies- but the sport is all over the place- I prefer the men's- outside the big league pros- most of seem more copasetic- although my boy was complaining about the weight class he was in- because- again- he was to big- to cut- but he is top of his class for the states. Apparently international standards/judging is different?

    I'm not an expert- nor do I follow it closely- I only keep track b/c of the guys at my gym who compete.
