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

we have boxes that have like 2in sections that you can add and take away. plates work pretty good or if you are needing small adjustments you can stand on a plate like a def while the weights on the bar are on something. that's great for small adjustments. in a pinch, or just to change the angle if you have a floor mounted t bar station or landmine. you can do your deads that way and same with a plate under you. you can really lock the lats in with the tbar version and pull nicely

Good idea! Can’t believe I never thought of that! Will try for sure! Thanks!


How are you guys hanging in on the weather? Looks like it just won’t leave NC

That is pretty impressive that you’re stronger off the floor! I haven’t attempted any other way since I’d basically have to stack weights in order to lift it. (No true power rack in my gym)

done for the day. say what? yes i made it to the gym. the gym's managing partner made it back into town and is keeping it open as long and as soon as possible. so i got to hit all the major primary days. was an ok session today. felt good stable and strong on the meadows rows, not so much on the pulls. felt great up to 405 but when i hit the first 3 on 455 it felt bad and off. so instead of cheating myself out of those final two reps. i pulled back took about 10 deep breaths reset and pulled the other 2. those 2 actually felt right. may have lost focus or dicked up my setup initially but i knew if i pulled number 4 setup that way i would hurt something. all in all though other than that minor setback it was an excellent day. i have also figured out that i am stronger pulling off the floor than i am a few inches off the floor or even above the knee. not normal for most people but that's how i am setup. no training tomorrow since it is an off day and i dropped cardio again today making my finalized prep for the storm.

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

Looks like a great session to me!
Had to look up the kumbucha! [emoji848]

Praying things aren’t too bad for you through the storm!!

it's great for your stomach and digestion. does some other good things also. on a side note it isnt very tasty at all. and thank you, hopefully you guys will dodge it as well

done for the day. not a bad session at all today. moved some pretty good weight and everything felt pretty good. got a great pump going. i didnt do cardio because we had to run around all morning making preps for the hurricane. so i figure that with the stress i have burned more than enough cals. not to mention having to prepare everything outside and around our house. most likely i wont be able to train for the remainder of the week because of the stupid ass storm. looking like it is going to be really really bad. going to get my food out and prepped up for the next few days so i am not getting in and out of the fridge and freezer. prep for a damn storm sucks ass.

Hopefully the Hurricane steers clear or at least weakens and doesn’t wreak much havoc.

done for the day. not to bad of a session today. i was able to move up a set of plates on the press with no hip flexor issues and nothing tightening up to bad. knees did get a little tight and angry going into squats. so i kept it at 275 for my sets of 10 because i had perfect control and speed at that weight. i was shooting for 315 but i knew the way i felt no way i was going to get any good speed or explosiveness going after the heavy leg press. got a great pump and actually didnt have any major issues. low back did get a tad bit pumped up but nothing uncomfortable. good stuff. i may only be able to get my primary work done this week since we are looking at nasty hurricane shit. so at least we may be able to get all the primary stuff done. hopefully it doesnt flood and jack everything up for weeks.

Cannolis are an all time favorite of mine.
Looks like a solid day of eating.

And Happy Anniversary to you and the Mrs.

we had an old no kidding deli like straight up in italy on the other side of the city from us. they had the best cannolis on the planet. they always did the fresh when you ordered and i have had them in italy in a number of places. these were the best haha but then again i am pretty sure any and all are good.

and thanks man i appreciate it
