I found my 5rm to be 50kg at 6 reps of 2 sets. No way can i do any more. It was this set that my form was starting to break but i had it under control.
also with this weight when going for the 5th rep, my legs gave up a little and put me in a hole of no return and from there i struggled pushing my neck against the bar to maintain upright position.
So this weight is a real struggle, where my body tries to drop my torso forward to help lift the load but i try and maintain straight composure.

I made a video after the 3 sets and after numerous attempts at recording myself at this weight to show my form at this weight, i will post it on lancests tv forum.

Do you think i should start with this weight and try and aim for 6-8 reps 2 sets or start with another weight? and when should i add weight to the bar and how much?

thanks

ya or you could drop the weight a little and try to hit 10-12 with your 8 etc. once you can hit say 2x8 for two sessions, up the weight.. generally you want two sessions before moving up.

ill check the vid in a bit.

Nice!  :headbang:
one thing i don't understand from what you wrote is you say try hit 10-12 with my 8, i'm guessing that i should try do 10-12 reps of my 8RM.

i was just saying to try and improve your 8 to a 10-12.. ie, planning to hit 8 reps, but maybe getting 9, or even 10.. 2 consistent workouts of being able to get a few more reps would indicate training with a new 8RM, since your previous 8RM has now changed to a ~10RM etc.

then you mention 2x8, first thing i understand from that is 2 sets of 8 reps.

this being the reason of my confusion

is adding 5kg enough to add on to the weight?

5kg total is fine ya.. once you've really peaked on your strength relative to your body mass, even 2.5kg will be good/effective increases.

i have two sessions a week so that fit's nicely with my goals.

SESSION:

1: SSBAR deep squat: 235 @ 1x10

11/15/2012

bw = 189
soreness = alot: shoulders/biceps/back/mid+upper back/quads
aches/injuries = null
fatigue = low



SESSION:

S1: SSBAR DEEP squat: 225 @ 10  :personal-record:, 8
S1: single arm DB bench press: 80 lb @ (R=9.5, L=8 :personal-record:), (R=9, L=8)
S1: single arm db row: 100 @ 1 x 8

quick workout.. PR'd left arm on db bench.. surprised i couldnt get 10 on right arm.. each set felt like i'd get ten but my arm just gave out.

225 x 10 is a PR also for SSBAR deep.. so all in all, cant complain.. pretty sore, sucks.

I think LBSS meant physique pics/vids , not jumps/dunks. I wanted to mention that too.
The photographic physique journey from 145 to 200 , maybe 220 , then back to who knows where , would be awesome!!!

o ya i know vag, i was just throwing that stuff in there hah..

ya i plan to take some fat pics...... i imagine ill get to 220 then try and drop some fat but who knows, i may in fact want to keep bulking lmao.

MUSSLES.

ya it'll be hilarious the comparison photo from 147 to ~220... ill do a machete pic like the one from my schizo dunk vid and side-by-side.

need comparison vid. athletic anorexia vs. gunning for two bills. i can't imagine what you look like 45 pounds heavier

ya i plan to start making vids again when i can rep teh hunneds :F

i really have no interest in jumping right now, having some fun with 'bodybuilding'.. i want to put on a ton more mass.. need to look NFL status.. i do see myself eventually jumping again but for right now it's Mission: Add Muscle.. i tell you though, adding muscle is alot easier than training for vert that's for sure..

i've always been a skinny shit so, this is pretty fun.

it'd be nice to hit 220 before re-evaluating or initiating my shred-block.

the last 2 days ive had ~14 bananas per day lmao....... the only problem is out of nowhere you have to sh*t so bad that it's dangerous.

lmao

peace man
