Thanks for the help. The injury has been completely gone for a few months though. Foam rolling the IT bands got rid of it entirely, pretty much. Plus switching to ATG squatting works my VMO's a lot more, and I feel like that will "cement" my recovery (get what I mean?).

I still foam roll before and after every leg session, and before and after every basketball session though.

i checked your log. you did not get injured. you are at 190s BW. went from 405x5 to 315x1.   :wowthatwasnutswtf:

hahah i did get injured though. had patellar tendonitis for ~8 months. in addition I went from 210lbs to 190lbs bw.
also i've switched from parallel squatting to ATG squatting, so I didn't drop as much as it seems.
the marathon walking allows me to eat more protein for the day and recover better from my workouts.
I actually started the marathon walking when I had tendonitis because I thought "crap, now that I can't play ball, how will I burn my calories?" and now I just walk everywhere instead of taking the train.

but thanks anyway, you've been providing me with motivation with ur beast squat:bw ratio  :ibsquatting:

lets be honest here... what's the fkn point of doing a chin up with 75 lb strapped?  it does not good for the vertical jump... just gives u bigger biceps so u look like a fucki faggit.

Why isnt this guy banned yet?

Btw for the first time today i hit 3x10 bodyweight chins with 90sc rests! Now i can attempt them with 5lbs attached and slowly work my way up

not bad..  :headbang:

careful with the chins. i did them for back thickness and i ended up with more biceps than lats. stopped at BW+90 x5, BWx20 routine. i prefer rows - thicken back without making your biceps too big.

I don't know how both of you suck with high rep BWs. while i was vacationing a few months ago, i did BWx20s 4-6sets every day. killed my abs more than anything.

i can probably do 20 reps with bodyweight non stop, but after that, im finished

considering i can do +75lbsx5 and BWx20 i'm surprised i still havent done 3x10 with 90sec rests.



and I do pendlay rows just as much as i do chin ups. in addition i do them with an overhand grip so it takes the biceps out of the movement just a bit.

I dont have a fulltime job but damn i cod never lift in the morning. Wayyy too stiff. In highschool i had bball practice 6:30 - 8:15am 5x/wk and i kinda enjoyed that once i shook the rust off, but couldnt picture moving heavy weights.

So i definitely prefer after class/work

I used to love tnation back in 2006-2008 or so. I really learned a lot of stuff from there. But after a while they just got crazy with pushing their BS products and i stopped reading because of it, but also because i wasnt learning as much anymore.

I wonder how rampant the advertising has gotten now... Im afraid to look

hit an all time PR today

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aj2PC1BNgno" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aj2PC1BNgno</a>


might go for +80lbs next week depending on how i feel. perhaps i'll do +75lbs again and try to get all the reps to have as much ROM as the first rep. I'm pretty sure I'll be able to get to +100lbs by august or so. i've been increasing at a steady pace.

and even tho i can do this, i STILL cant do 3x10 bodyweight chin ups with 90sec rests. goddaam, high rep chinups just DO NOT work with my body!

i ordered a pair of 2011 Rogue do-wins in a size 9 but i need a size 9.5. so pissed.

this was like 3 years ago. been too lazy to send them back, and i can't find anybody to buy them off of me. even offered them last month to my friend for free and he declined! wtf? they dont stink of anything, they're brand new. never wore them.

wondering if i should order a 9.5 now, but dammit that money.

Not only that but you probably didn't do your warm up sets properly to hit 315x2.

that top set is just there so when you do your backoffs, everything is already firing nicely.

^^^^^

This is why I always work up to ~90% x 1 if I'm doing 5 rep work or lighter.
