keep up the good work, man, seems like you're making good progress and considering how big you are you're in pretty damn good shape. be careful about some of those crossfit workouts, though. sumo dl high pulls are a terrific way to fuck up your shoulders.

a max set is a working set. not sure who you're saying is against working up to a 1RM. i'm doing that right now every workout and loving it. kf does it almost every single day. but there's a difference between trying to hit absolute PR's every day, which is a huge drain on CNS, and working up to a max that you can handle.

if you ever do get those big firm strong buttocks, you should wax, post a pic to the big booty bitches thread, and then revel in the lulz when raptor and mutumbo upvote you.

from my n=4 experience (i.e., four ankle sprains), ace bandages are better than braces.

what is your track training like and what events are you planning to compete in?

7061
yeah man, i pretty much suck at jumping relative to my strenf. no idea where rvj is at right now but i'm sure it's terrible.

WEIGHT: 177
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: left wrist, left knee a little during squat warm up but otherwise okay
MENTAL STATE: fine, unremarkable, felt a little stupid cause i made it all the way to the gym from my office without realizing i was carrying the wrong bag. had to turn around and go back.

- warm up

- rudimentary hops

- SVJ x 4
25.5, meh

- depth jump 20" x 4; 12" x 4
20" is too high, i got one jump at 26 but the rest were clumsy. 12" is easier to get coordinated, hit several 26 and one 27, but i'm still clumsy with these. lots of room for improvement.

- squat 345 x 1; 355 x 1; 280 x 4,4
355 went up strong. should get 360 soon.

- S1: back extension +35 x 10
- S1: pull up x 7,7,4+2+1
- S1 info: 3 rounds, 30s rest.
jesus christ, weak on the pull ups. time to get back into these, did horribly today. back extensions get a good light pump.

- S2: DB bench 60s x 7
- S2: roman chair leg raise x 15
- S2 info: 3 rounds, 30s rest

- stretch

front squats look great. you still have a weird hitch in your giddyup on the back squat that you don't on the front squat, but it does look better than before. the first rep looks good and then you start breaking kind of jerkily at the knees. i wonder why front and back are so different for you w/r/t knees.

7064
that makes no sense.

tonight:

- foam roll x 35-40 mins
really hit adductors hard.

7065
I never got pinned... ever. I never understood why you'd put yourself in that situation.

"Oh, it means you don't try hard enough". STFU

It means I'm smart enough to know when to stop and how to listen to my body. Why the heck would you try a rep when you feel 99% sure you're going to fail it? What would that rep DO for you and your training? Absolutely nothing. I don't get this pinned thing.

The closest I've been to a pin was during a 137.5x5 set, but that was just because I had a spotter. He helped me stabilize the weight at the half squat depth, I wouldn't have recovered back at the 5th rep without his help. Other than that, even when I did my max 160 kg squat PR I was pretty far away from getting pinned.

Lol is this post a joke?  Because if it is it sure is hella funny.  Hahah.

why would you think it's a joke?
