Back Squats 3 x 5 x 140 kg

nice work birdy, also benching without a spotter produces a hormonal respone similar to deadlifting and squatting, due to the live or die scenario

Robert

Buy a thick bar for your chins.

I am making a rule now. Anyone who doesn't chin on a thick bar is a homo.

3x5 is hardly pumping and even if I am a bodybuilder I still lift more weight than you

Robert
14-04-2005, 11:13
HAHAHA, owned!

Bird is one of the strongest on this site, in fact, if he used the equipment that Alex does, I think he would be miles stronger. Bar rogue, he IS the strongest in my view.

Bow down to, James.

belt broke? a dip belt or a suspender belt?

those dips must of been easy then?

do u have back support on the seated press? meaty DBs

how are those chins going? getting any easier? did u stop at 5 coz thats what the routine says or could u of done more?

How'd the edt feel? i would stick 2.5-5kg on the bar for both of the exercises next time.

bird
23-04-2005, 21:10
1. The clip bit of the chain then you connect to the belt has bent, I'm not sure where to get a new one as that was a maximuscle one and havn't seen many others out there.
2. Yes the dips were very easy as i'm usually doing 6 with 60kg on.
3. No back support, I am totally raw for everything cept deads where I wear a belt.
4. Chins coming along nicely few weeks time I should be adding weight if all goes to plan.
5. It was tough and I liked it for that reason I love pushing myself, done.

PikeKing

PikeKing

training hasn't been too good, work has really taken over, I work in a warehouse, I work long hours and am always on my feat moving heavy stuff around, I think i'm burning too many calories to gain anything. Changing to a 3 day split now and that should help a little to fit in I think.
