I think a lot of people can recognize the "i have a plan, and i must stick to that, otherwise i fail" idea. I have had that in the past myself as well, but as a coach and trainer i learned to think differently, and adjust when neccessary. Still it's hard, because like you said, it doesn't match in your brain. I saw your…

I am glad you started with the full body workout Sandy. I do think you stress too much about the fact that life happens, and plans change. Sometimes you just have to adjust to what is possible within human limits. You are getting in enough move time, maybe not on lifting part for what you want, but you are not sitting…

Your application will be reviewed

It was, i took your piece since it took you ages to come over

@Ashkea76 Happy birthday Ash, and i hope you have an awesome day

Watching The Boys during my free 1 month free for Amazon Prime It's better than i thaught And saw John Wick 4 on it as well, so gonna watch that this weekend i think

@MelG7777 @Ashkea76 @PaperDoll_ @DWBalboa @Megan_smartiepants1970 Thank you all for the birthday wishes you people are the best Also @Cat0703a @eatpolerepeat @eva_letsdance Thank you lovely woman as well for the messages on IG

So when can i expect the invite 😉

Oh, yeah than i have misunderstood that part. I warmup with % of my 1RM. Had someone mention to me earlier this week to probably do a bit more warmup sets before working set. So going to give that a try first. If i like it, i can stay with it. If not, i will try your approach Always willing to try different styles to see…

Well, since i am european, sizes kinda work different over here. I have wide J, for references, "standard shoes" are sold with wide E, so i go 5 wides above that I have Asics running shoes for when i workout and can use shoes, so besides squating and deadlift (and it's variations) And because the side are so flexible i can…

YEP! I do about 3-4 warmup sets before working sets. Depending on what % i am working at When i do this mesocycle program. The first week starts with 70%. So i start warmup with just the bar, then 25% then 50%. But when i am working towards the end of the cycle and work at 90 or 95% i add another 1 or 2 warmup sets

Congrats on the increased weight Mike, you are doing awesome! About the body type thing. I think it really depends on the woman and age as well. Woman in their early 20's are more likely to look for a men with a great physique compared to woman in their late 30's early 40's i think. I think that is part of our DNA as well…

I looked these shoes up, are they really wide? They look narrow Maybe i should just give it a try

Are those black thing actually shoes. they look like socks...awesome! The narrow toe box is something that holds me back from getting lifting shoes. I have wide, very wide feet. I can't even wear Nikes/Addidas shoes because of it, and i have tried even the wide versions of them PS Sandy that squat looks so solid and with…

Sumo the only way for me to squat. I tried narrow stance, and it started to look like a good morning. I think for powerlifting the wide stance is more common, there may only be a few blessed people who can squat narrow stance with heavy weight like Tom Platz did. At age 68 he still squats 180kg for reps. Altough when last…

If you get this, we can be friends

Yes HYE collected something that you still have?

Yeah, i understand the use of lifting shoes. But like i said, for me personally i think it would be a waste of money. I have pretty good ankle mobility, my main problem are my hips and long legs (compared to rest of my body), which prevents me from squatting deep. Even without weight, i can't squat below parallel, at least…

Oh please don't fund that guy anymore than some people already do. He is such a scammer and only sells his brand. I remember him saying, don't buy lifting shoes, they are a waste of money. 2 weeks later, he came with the wide toe shoe thingy...yeah mate. You are just selling your own product here and give a *kitten* about…

Well it looked solid man

Dude, you are going to love barefoot...so much more stability and you can really push up without worrying about the balance. I have never tried lifting shoes. Feels like a waste of money for me, knowing that barefoot gives same stability. But i understand that there are gyms that don't allow barefoot (even with socks)

This looked like warmup for you man...damn!

Look like running shoes...You are braver than me Chris... I don't have lifting shoes, so i go barefoot on my squats and deadlifts since a year now

I like this approach

Yes, and that's on my wife. We have 3 in the house, of which 2 are setup already, last one will be setup after my birthday celebration. And i mean directly after visitors are gone, it's sort of a tradition. We have 1 in the downstair toilet, 1 in the office of my wife and last one is going to be in living room. Here is the…

Just finished The Office (US) I have rarely found a tv show of 9 seasons that actually had a good ending, but i loved this one. Started The Boys this weekend, since i still have a few day's left of my free Prime subscribtion, if i like it after 3 episodes i will continue the subscribtion

Yep, that seems to be the correct grip and form for face pulls Sandy. Really targeting those rear delts

Nope, since i do not live in USA Probably would like to HYE been to Europe (question for non europeans obviously)

I will be rooting for you to get that third plate per side I have a feeling it won't take you 3 years
