Ahh... Alrighty. In a way, im glad to see the drop in load, at least for awhile. Lower back's been complainin abit.

Wat does mr stand for? Max rate, ie max rep speed?

This previous 8 week cycle u put me thru, i think i gained perhaps 4-5 inches. Thing is, i still feel like i could've gone higher, but i haven't been able to produce.

ya, as you get in better shape/jump more in this gpp, it'll transfer better into strength/peak phase.. better than our last peak phase.

I can put in ok work in the gym, but i think my aerobic capacity is shit haha. I see vag do like 20-30 ME jumps, i get winded by the time i get to ten. But i can run a 9:50 2.4km, which is abt a 1.5 mile... Which i tot was at least average haha :/

not bad.. I get winded when i'm doing tons of jumps too man.. it's like running a bunch of small sprints, that's why you have to make sure your rest is good between each jump and between sets of jumps.. ~1 min rest between jumps, 2-3 min between sets of jumps :F

i'll post other workouts later.

peace man

nice on bench, what's whoa nitro?


Thanks! I was pleased. Not sure but I think that's some kind of PR. "Like whoa nitro" is something my little something my brothers and I used to say to make something extreme. So, "That chick is hot like whoa nitro," or, "Holy shit, I sucked at basketball today like whoa nitro." Goofy, don't have any idea where it came from, but we used to say it all the time and we still do when we're around each other.

ah.. i remember "like whoa" used to be pretty badass after that rap song, appending "nitro" to it adds a level of geekness. good work.

EDIT According to the Tim In Vermont ORM calculator (http://www.timinvermont.com/fitness/orm.htm), that gives me a max of 247, or almost 1.5xBW! Those things are pretty inaccurate but still that's nice. Closing in on the standard there. Can't wait for the first 5/3/1 workout (Saturday, I think) to see how many times I can rep out 195.

nice man.. ya 1.5xBW bench is strong stuff, good job keep it up.

Looks pretty good! Couple things:

  • You're not parallel on any of them, which doesn't matter that much in the end unless you're trying to do ATG or whatever. On the 275's, it's more like a half squat. Just pointing it out.
  • You do a weird little sit-back thingy before you go down, small, kinda just looks like a hitch. Like zgin's Charles Barkley squats but 1000 times less noticeable. Try to focus on sitting down and back smoothly rather than doing a little prep move, then squatting.
  • Otherwise, back looks okay, shoulders look okay. Knees look okay, no wobbling although they're coming out a little far.

If any of that didn't make sense let me know and I'll try again.

i agree with pretty much all of that, the only thing i've cmoe to have a problem with regarding squatting is that 'push the hips back first' crap.. i mean i'm pretty much on the go straight down bandwagon, which is a very small bandwagon.. I think PL ruined performance training, or something. If not ruining it, they did some damage.

the squats still look good though, very strong too man..

peace

I agree, the post is worth it despite the load time. I'm wondering though, why LBSS seems so vehemently against just about anything outside of bodyrecomposition.com

I'm not vehemently against anything outside br.com. That would also be retarded. However, the quality of information on there is so much higher than anywhere else I've found that until I find someplace better -- and trust me, I look -- I rely on Lyle for the most part.

Largely because, unlike most other nutrition sites I've seen, HE DOESN'T FUCKING LIE ALL THE TIME* and HE ISN'T A FUCKING MORON.** Also, Lyle's support forum is moderated only for civility, unlike TMag's or practically anyone else's message board. You can troll him to your heart's content, ask the dumbest questions possible, and he will not censor or ban you. Because he's not selling bullshit and he actually knows what he's talking about.

*See: Practically everyone who writes for TMag
**See: Practically everyone who advocates for the Paleo diet/lifestyle, including the two-years-ago version of myself.

i've been modded a bunch of times on t-nation for "posting stuff that would conflict with t-nation", or so the mods told me in the reply.. hehe

sweet, thanks!

for the REA squats, u meant 95kg right?

shit, forgot to put it in kg, nope, i meant 43 kg or so.. real light.. we're backing off slightly on REA for a bit to give you a break, but still doing it to retain efficiency on the movement.. we'll be getting back into heavier ones, but right now just go light on them.

peace!

well, he gave lyle a big hug, on his nuts, and has yet to let go. He has a very strong grip and amazing pec/lat endurance. :P

the info on bodyrecomposition is really good i do admit compared to many supplement companies who try and push all types of junk science down our throats.. lyle keeps it pretty simple and definitely doesn't come off as a hype artist.. his information is very solid, while t-nation makes claims of 28 lb lean mass in 8 weeks using anaconda or whatever.. so alot of people (and some on here) have some pretty nasty remarks about the good ole` folks at t-nation.
