Hey

Are bulgarian split style good alternative to barbell

i.e. barbell squats - dumbell bulgarian split squats

RDL - bulgarian split RDL - one leg on box behind and aim for a single leg RDL with dumbbell

bulgarian split calf raises - same thing one leg behind and one leg calf raise on floor dumbbell

actually laughed out loud. upvoted to return this post to neutral. :trolldance:

WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: hamstrings and glutes a tiny bit
ACHES/INJURIES: none
MENTAL STATE: good, jittery

- warm up

- SVJ x 7

- depth jump x 4,4,4
pretty bad. on the plus side, i found something in the gym i can reach for and touch to get a sense of how high i'm jumping. only works if the gym is uncrowded.

- KB swing 70.5 x 10,10,10

- DB OHP 60 x 4; 50 x 8
60 was really heavy, much more than i'd have expected

- DB row 65 x 8,8

- SS1: curlzzzz 30 x 10
- SS1: tricep pull down 130(?) x 10
- SS1 info: 2 rounds

- stretch

7132
yeah that's why i think extended planks are silly. you can make it harder in other ways. lift one leg and one arm or put a weight on your back or wear a vest.

my brother got arrested for robbery last night and is in jail.  :(

dafuq???
How old , what kind of robbery , why would he do that?
Not being indiscreet , don't answer if its personal...

don't know particulars but he was surely stealing whatever it was to buy drugs. my youngest brother is mentally ill and a hardcore drug addict. it's a very sad state of affairs when i'm relieved that he's in jail. deeply sad, too, obviously. but that's a general feeling, not specific to him being in jail.

There is no problem that is too big to be solved.  I know what he is going through.  And he needs to find somethign in life that he is passionate about that will fill the void that he has, and drugs obviously is not the answer.

finding something he's passionate about would help, but he's powerfully mentally ill, so that's not really going to be enough. thanks for the words, though.

I'm guessing you're meant to do the exercises one after another with no rest? I might give this a go when I'm 100% again. I know I could probably do the situps and pushups, 20 strict form pullups would kill me though.

i don't think it's quite with no rest. it was meant to be done with large groups, in waves. you can probably take 5-10 minutes between.

also, are you sure about the sit ups? they're to be done with legs straight, and elbow to opposite knee at the top of the movement. takes a bit longer than a regular sit up. i don't think i could get 79 in 120 seconds. or 54 push ups chest-to-floor, for that matter.

His words on the dunk: "I got nervous. I had to do what I knew would go in, so I did a 360. You see I almost broke my back afterward, so maybe next time I should just lay it up or something."
