Hey, what does the +20 mean? This one:

Sun Dec 14 405x1 | +20.

that he feels he could have lifted 20 pounds more than that day's max lift. that is, his max yesterday was 425 but he limited himself to 405. do not attempt to use this method of accounting, he earned it through a shit ton of practice.

watch the whole thing. the second-to-last lift is a guy DLing 605 at 155 with a double-overhand grip.

that was an alternate grip. still extremely awesome.

indeed it was. not sure what i was seeing the first time around. but yes, holy balls, what a lift.

Oh... lol... hm... shouldn't you plant pretty well RL then?

raptor we've had this conversation at least three times before.

yeah i'm gonna stick with 'em for a while. would be so sweet to have a full ROM unassisted.

also, i meant to mention: touched rim off right leg SLRVJ, very close off left today.

Raptor read the article again, you missed all the important stuff.

Didn't read it.

- warm up

- squat 315 x 2,2; 185 x 20
first 20-repper. felt it a bit in the low back once i got up there in reps but this was not super challenging. fun way to get some squats in without taxing myself too much. might do these once a week or every two.

- superset x 2
-- assisted natural GHR x 5
-- pull up x 8
-- DB OHP 45s x 8

- superset x 5
-- DB swing 45 x 10
-- band pull apart x 10
-- push up x 10

- BB decline sit up 35 x 10

- curlzzzzzzzzz 20s x 10

- stretch

i'm liking higher-volume stuff. it's a way to push myself for upper body and get a little conditioning in - rest on the first superset was 45-60s and on the second more like 15-30s - without challenging my CNS with heavy weights or with any kind of preoccupation on getting stronger. i'll continue to add weight slowly and mix things up to get in a good amount of pushes and pulls, but i'm not going to stress about it. it's fun. also i found a machine in the gym that i can use to do natural GHRs so i'm going to start doing those again, alternating with RDL variations.
