done for the day. nasty nasty pump today and a very very good workout in early this am. i was a little off on my decline press today. my balance was way off and idk why, so it felt really ackward and weak, so i didnt push it too hard and get hurt. it could be the prior movements that we dont normally do early on or the big cold front and pressure drop messing with my inner ears. i still felt pretty good and strong on everything else. now it's time to get the chow on and get ready for some football. go bears

hell I dont know the real names for half the stuff I do. I'm just a dumb powerlifter.

haha not dumb, what i call it may not be correct either. i have a reverse hack squat thing that i do that's kind of like a sl dead that i call the goat sandwich cause that's what it looks like to me with your ass up in the air like that.

You're an animal brother... I sometimes feel beastly and strong, then I read your log and feel like a chump lol

damn man, i thought the numbers today were a tad bit low. they damn sure were after i watched one of the 230ish pound power lifters hit an 8 plate per side and a 25 per side for 1 full clean rep and then fail on the 2d rep about 1/4 of the way up. that was his final work set of doubles and he still got the first one clean. all he had on was a belt knee and wrist wraps. not my cup of tea now a days but damn if that wasnt insane. 10 years ago i would have been all about it but knowing what i know now that doesnt translate over to increased muscle size whatsoever so those days are long gone for me. the kid is not even 30 years old though and he is already closing in on a 1k pound squat and deadlift. i am not sure what his bench is but i am pretty sure he is hitting 500 + right now.

Re: Follow Along G's Run to the NA's

these arent actually tbar rows. they are a spin off on your standard db row but standing with a bb. they hit the lat from the low insertion all the way to the top. the stretch and contraction with this movement is about as complete as you can get once you have the form down all the way. i have done these in a tri set with the meadows rows, one arm bb rows and old school tbar rows at the end. this attacks the entire lat and mid back region in one tri set. it will beat you down with a quickness man

Re: Follow Along G's Run to the NA's

I still do them the old school 2 hands way. Sometimes I use the machine version that supports your chest, but regular tbars are one of my favorites.

Re: Follow Along G's Run to the NA's

hell no man, i dont have that kind of skill. you set the bar up in a corner like you are going to do old school t bar rows. then you grip the bar right where the small part moves into the big part up by the plates. then you bend at the waist and pull the weight to your hip. looks like this:

Again; showing us your client's work out? LOL. I still think of you as the BOSS.

Re: Follow Along G's Run to the NA's

I see a couple of variations.. do you do it like a one arm tbar or are you lifting and balancing the whole barbell?

Re: Follow Along G's Run to the NA's

I keep meaning to ask you... how do you do a one arm bb (barbell) row

Re: Follow Along G's Run to the NA's

Nice like the cake recipe thanks

no problem i left a part out cause i am a momo. you also add in a handful of raisins or cranberries into the mix as a preworkout.
