Ha nice man. You are getting a bit heavy again

I see you do those single arm db bench as well. What the advantage to them compared to regular db bench?

just to even out any imbalances, for myself especially, my right arm is MUCH stronger, for example, i can standing 1 arm OHP 40 lb x ~8+ with right arm, 0 left arm... so ya btw it's standing 1-arm OHP, not bench press, i have no bench ;d

peace

Thats cool. My right is a bit stronger than my left as well.

Bro, unilateral exercises are no better than bilaterals for evening out imbalances. Don't you know anything?

those 10's were tough though, I probably could man up for one set of 20 at this point, and be completely dead, but I want to hit 20 alot easier than I hit it last time (years ago).. at 175-180 i hit 225 x 20, but i hit it with something I could do for like 7-10 if i recall correctly, so each rep after that range, I had to get in deep breathes to hit another rep, and it was so brutal.. I want to just murder 225 x 20 this time, even though my depth will be a little higher i'm not squatting in oly shoes like i did back then, in fact the waffles i squat in force me into more dorsiflexion than normal, making depth harder to achieve.. i just like doing everything in my waffles though. ;p

11/16/2010

bw = 152
soreness = light hamstrings, light calf
aches/injuries = left ankle feeling better all day, felt it slightly during workout, right ham tendon a little
fatigue = tired today but still feeling strong

diet = protein shake, turkey & cheese sandwhich + ramen noodles, protein shake, training, protein shake + 3 bananas, protein shake + 5 bananas + PB sandwhich

^^ high banana intake because im anticipating jumping tomorrow.. jumps have gotten pretty good since being back on teh bananas.

mr tucks:
nice warmup, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5 <-- last set messed up koz jcsbck got cracked on hard

S1: mr tuck jump: @ 10, 5, 5, light pogos @ 5
S1: 1-arm db ohp: 37.5 lb @ l7-r13, l8-r14, l8-r15, @ l6-r13
S1: (3spause) 1-arm row: 65 lb @ 8, 10, 10 @ 10

1-arm db ohp: 30 lb @ l12-r22
1-arm db row: 70 lb @ 17

improvements on 1-arm standing db ohp, bigtime.. left arm still weak as hell though, mid back gets hammered during left arm, but not when i do right arm.

tuck jumps felt very good, should be interesting tomorrow.

was hoping to goto indoor gym but, forum stuff+other stuff has me sleeping at 5:30am, if i wakeup at 1:30 then maybe.. if not ill goto the roof'd outdoor court.

gonna do some head height jumps from right-side runup, anticipating some big jumps.

we'll c.

peace

Do you extend your back to far back on those left hands to get some more front involved? Or is i trapz getting worked hard?

Anyways looking forward to those jumps.

I love bananas, but why is it that theyre so good?
