Mister69's Log

pull ups or chins with weight with a slow strict form have been incredibly helpful to me. I am stronger because of them and I think they definitely have contributed to my back width.

feels alot heavier at the bottom, but yesterday was an off day didnt get much sleep the night before.

But i have been alternating rack pulls on other weeks so not really doning any bottom end power at all. Been a while since i hit a wall with racks\deads so it was bound to happen ya know.
 
yeah, my leg routine hasnt hit a wall so i wont be doing any pause leg press just yet.


As for pullin off of plates, i was going to pull off of one 45lbs plate, you think that is high enough or just stack two 45's and stand on them?

whatever 3"+ is. measure it and see.
 
yo i know your gym has those aerobic steppers use those to pull off of.i think one with no risers on the bottom is like 5".if they aint wide enough use one for each leg instead of going parralell with the bar go horizontial.i personally hate using plates stacked they feel wobbly or something.

Good day felt good....not using the scale anymore cuase that shit can drive a man insane with fluctuation of water etc. Eating well and keeping a log of my workouts and what i eat. Allowing myself to a few cheat meals a week usally wendys or mcdonalds as long as it has protein i am a happy guy. I am nailing my numbers and keeping real focused.
 
rest today

Got back\hams\bis tomorrow

Not sure if i should keep doing racks off of the bench, cuase my university gym sucks. I mean 2 weeks ago i did 465 off the bench and the bench was fine, I just nee two of my bddies to help put the weight on the bar so it doens fall. The bench is reinforced with steel bars on the bottom and is pretty damn solid.

What you guys think, should i keep pullin off this bench, (it is pretty solid).

I was thinking as an alternative i can do sldl's, but it seems that racks have better carry over to floor deads. And i would be doing sldl's 2x a week and that can hit a wall pretty quick.

-When doing sldl's is there a need to step on a platform, or yuo can get more than deep enoguh just form the floor.
 
thanks pb.

Gonna do rack pulls tomorrow and do them off of the bench. Hey if they dont got a power rack i gotta improvise.

-notes-

used lying t bar rows in place of seated rows cause i used the entire rack for seated rows and needed soemthing plate loaded.

This is the machine we got http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/2002/lyingtbar1.jpg

I think that is a good substitute to seated rows.
