And he needs to gif it ofcourse

Ah got ya! Thought you were already at those reps. But you will get there not long from now i just know it And you bet i am gonna gif it if i reach 364 lbs for deadlift (or squat, whatever comes first) Right now on the road back to where i was before my time off. But since i was having DOMS for 5 day's after my last squat…

Hey Sam! Would love to hang out with this great guy

Damn, those are some nice nubmers for reps Chris. You are doing awesome, and it shows. My magical number will be 364lbs I hope to lift that someday for squats and deadlifts It's what i used to weigh at my highest, so would be cool to be able to deadlift that weight at my current weight of 232lbs, which i hope to get down…

Glad to hear that brother! It is probably not for everyone, and also not allowed in every gym, but its cheaper than lifting shoes, and basically gives the same stability. Just not the heels elevated, but there you have blocks for

Nice work Chris!

So, they got a mag row handle (if that is the correct name) in my gym now. So much better to do lat pulldowns, since the grip is so much better. And even better for my normal rows, since i have my hands rotated, and in a more natural position

That is so awesome! Proud of you

Yes, but that is easy, since i live in Netherlands, takes 1 hour drive for me to reach Germany But i have visited about 24 countries over the years due to vacations, furthest away was Bali, Indonesia HYE swam with Orca's?

I feel so sorry for people actually paying for this app, because it has so many bugs. Bugs MFP didn't have when i started here in 2012. MFP lost it's way over the years, and now...taking away one of the few things people still lke about this app. The Newsfeed. Keeping track with your friends on your friendslist, but nooooo…

This made me chuckle

Not really a meme, but i know a lot of people are upset about the new change on MFP of deleting newsfeed:

Thank you Chris. I just need to remind myself that it takes time to build up strenght again and being away from lifting for 4 weeks is gonna mess with my strenght. Definatly feeling it today though, it's walking funny thursday today

Okey, first session done in the gym again after 4 weeks no gym and only 2 home workouts and recreative cycling And i am humbled... Was planning on doing 4 sets of 6-8 on Bench, DL and Squats at 60% of my 1RM (which clearly is not my 1RM i am capable off right now) Ended up doing Bench at 70% for 3 sets of 8/9/8 Deadlift at…

Ment to day this for my plan: Plan today is squat, bench, deadlift for 4 sets of 6-8 at 60% Going to up 5 kg on squat and deadlift every next session and 2.5kg on bench and see where i strand. I think i am just going to do that for a while before starting my 7 week program again. During summer i am alone in office for a…

Today, finally going back to the gym after almost 4 weeks. Last week it didn't happened due to certain circumstances but i did worked out in my garden with my 1 dumbell i have and did 10 minute rope jumping. On a good note, i have started to lose some weight again, been watching my eating a bit more again and saying no a…

Hiya folks! How is everyone doing? I am back from my short break/vacation, and ready to start my program again. Tomorrow evening is first one, with Squats and Bench session. Since i only have time to workout twice this week (being away is fun, but works gets to a hold, and now i have to catch up again) i am doing squat and…

Thanks Sandy, i kinda needed to hear this. As for the trip, yeah it's a time of rest. I always love it there, so peacefull, no cars allowed (except residents) and just be in nature

I hate that i have been away in the gym for so long with my injury. It's hard to get back in the routine, and when i do go to the gym, i am so sore. Went monday for bench press and some accessory, and i am still sore. My current routine is that i started my compound lifts with 60% or 65% and do 4 sets of 8 minimum and when…

Seriously Sandy...that voice message. HUGE smile on my face, hearing you like this

FREAKING AWESOME!!!!!! I did a happy dance for you Sandy (no did not gif it)

@KickassAmazon76 For her pushing herself so much and making such awesome progress She is my hero!

This kinda does sound like ego lifting, and ultimately i think it will stop your progression much sooner, than when using smaller plates. I have even 0.125kg plates in my bag, just so i can make progression on some exercises. Because even how little that may seem, it's still progress. And it does add up the long run…

So, seems i can gradually start building back up my strenght again. Did not much today, because i do wanna slowly build it up And wanted to see how my deadlifts would feel today. So after my warmup sets i did 4x8 at 60% Then 3xF for tricep push downs and 3xF for cable rows That was it, so like i said, not much, but i…

Can't wait till Melon Season Sandy 😇 PS those socks and shirt to match with it...love it!

Glad to read everyone here is working hard on themself, and finding out new things I have been really quiet lately over here. As some may have read, i was having back problems again. It's going a lot better right now, but still definatly not 100% Besides of that, i had been really busy last 2 weeks as well with…

Well, so new to the lifting the way you are doing now. No gym newbie, but appraoching it differently this time And sounds like a solid plan my friend! Looking forward to your progression

NO! You got beaten by the Amazing Amazon Sandy! And don't worry about it, she is just hella strong. Out of this world! On serious note, never compare yourself to others, only to yourself to see if you make progression. You only recently started, right? So 80kg is pretty good
