Article & Video Discussion / 5000 Chinups
« on: September 27, 2011, 08:25:48 pm »

I am going to start doing an experiment i read from a T-Nation article.
http://www.t-nation.com/free_online_article/most_recent/13064_pullups_in_5_months

I am going to do chinups daily until i get 5000 total chinups.

I will add one total rep each day. I did 50 yesterday. Today I did 51. Tomorrow i will do 52. Once i get to the day where i do 112 reps. I will have done over 5000 chinups. This might effect my bench, pressing, DL, and rdl for a little bit, but i think i will eventually adapt. i am going to this Monday through Saturday and rest on Sunday. Kind of like how farmers work Monday through Saturday. THis can be like my farm work. Lol

THis really has nothing to do with my goals of being a faster sprinter, but I wanna do this out of pure curiosity and as an extra personal challenge.
One of my goals is to get 20 chinups easily and eventually get a one arm chinup. I wouldnt mind getting a bigger back, biceps, forearms in the process.

I am using a neutral grip. i will eventually get rings once i save up my allowance but until then its neutral grip. dont want to fuck up my elbow in the process.

Strength, Power, Reactivity, & Speed Discussion / Squatting

I hear that squatting 2x your bodyweight is GREAT, but when they say that do that mean like 1 rep max, 5 rep max. What about how long it takes us do godown and up. WHat are some good goals because i am only about 10 pounds away from having my one rep max be double my bodyweight.

Introduce Yourself / Hey Everyone
« on: August 21, 2011, 06:47:51 pm »
Hey everyone. My name is Petros. I have been lurking checking this site out for a while. Its seems real legit.

I am 16 years old. I don't have any concrete goals at the moment. I want to do track this year, and sprinting to be specific. I used to be able to do a 5 minute mile way back when I was 14, but idgaf about the mile right now. I want to letter, and be the fastest at my high school.

I am also rather skinny (but still sorta chubby), so getting muscular is a goal. I have a 315 trap bar deadlift max, a 200 something squat (about 230x1) , 135 bench max, a 125 incline max, can do 14 chinup, have about a 30 inch vertical, and can power clean about 100 pounds all at 5'8 150. i am short but I am rather lanky though. (6'1 wingspan)

I strength train at school for 30-35 minutes in a class so my routine has to be simple and give the most bang for my buck. Track starts in february. I plan on improving my squat to repping out 305, bench to repping 225, cleaning 185.

I plan on lifting at school, and finishing up what i didn't do later on afterschool. Sprinting 10-40 yarders twice a week on either M,W, or F. Jumping rope daily, and playing basketball whenever I feel like it. My schedule is pretty flexible for the most part
