You sir have balls
haha thanks @SideSteel I'm doing a 6 week 20 rep program...today was halfway through and if I can see it all the way through, I'll hit 275-280 for 20 in another 3 weeks.
That is a lot of weight to jump in 6 weeks. Impressive
lifting 3 times a week adding 5 pounds each lift.
First workout is 5 RPM Max - 90 lbs. X#'s x 20 reps.
Add 5 on next time.
The idea is to help build your base of strength up- also- excellent program "cleansor" between training rotations and a real gut check as a lifter.

It is @musclegood_fatbad ,but what you're doing is taking your 5 rep max, subtract 90lbs and then do it for 20. So by the end you're doing your previous 5rm for 20 reps. It's an established program and looks like it's yielded great results for most ppl...it's just an excruciating few weeks LOL. Especially the last two. I'm chronicling my workouts here if you want to read up or follow.

Thanks for the info...definitely look into it.0 -
Now that I am happily unemployed, I've been visiting other gyms.
I trained at Animal House gym on Thursday and Friday - Milwaukee's original hardcore bodybuilding gym. I haven't been here since 1993 before I moved to Chicago and back. Everyone was really nice there, most of the regulars (I assume) gave me a head nod or hi. Totally made me feel at home.

Thanks
I started wearing my belt like that so the tag end didn't get in the way during deadlifts, now it's habit whenever I put it on.

Best of luck on the new career path @nakedraygun ! It's amazing how no matter how much everyone benches/squats/DLs/etc. pull-ups seem to be the great equalizer. I did 3x5 with 40lbs this morning and then finished off with 10 chin-up grip and 7 neutral grip BW.
And here's my squat from this morning...end of week 4...250 lbs! The next two weeks are going to be hell

My *kitten* 210 video. Felt pretty good for these.but annoyed at the douchey kid who walked in front of the video will didn't even think it was funny be managed to very in front of both squats.
Whatever. Felt good 210@ 3 x 2 here.0 -
@JoRocka - niiiiice. I had the same thing happen on every single bench set on Friday. So frustrated by the end.
Had bench triples at 77.5kg today, probable opener for Saturday. Decent speed considering I spent all day yesterday spotting and loading for the men's flights at a local meet.1 -
Nice lifts both of you @jorocka @willbenchforcupcakes
I usually luck out on not having people cut in front of my videos...that sucks.
