You lift good but you dress stupid wtf

[Ghost1]

that's my grandpa wtf@?!

and STFU zunto fagot

maybe if I cut my fucking lip into confetti and lift in an umbro hoodie then u approve!?! fucking punch u to death on everything I love

[Diode]

try to get deeper when your hips drop. also ensure you tighten your core on these - your back will thank you later.

good work. 500 was where i peaked. the past year has consisted of barely any lifting due to injuries/baby/focus on bjj but my deads are always still 405-435 even after a few months off. the rest of my lifts are always trash after a break though.

current break is gonna be a long time, sadly. i wrecked my lower back bad from a combo of inverted guard and large dudes in bjj and then going to deadlift heavy afterwards. i'm in PT for the foreseeable future T_T

[Ghost1]

that blows man

and can you elab on that hip cue you mentioned??

you mean the initial pull from the floor? deeper then?

[Zaddy]

Lipitwat talking shit

[Inno]

That bitch sounds hot tho

[Geno]

Hercules hercules hercules.

Nice work. Props

[Final Boss]

Bags a monster. Get it boi!

[Amen]

Yo. I use them wrist bar clips. You ever use those?

And I've never dead lifted heavy for shit, lol. Always light weight max reps for definition. Plus for some reason, I hate free weights - even tho everyone tells me they are the best for equal muscle growth.

I need to get back in the gym, this is depressing. This fucking nigga turning in to an OX and I'm just getting fat. HOw much you weighing now, Bags?

I"m 220 lbs. This executive desk job made me lazy. I was 180 lbs a year ago. Jesus.

Video's coming soon.

BTW; has youtube gotten better? I remember the last time I tried to upload a 5 minute video mag calling RB faggots, faggots but it took a fucking hour. Lost interest in ever uploading another video.

Props tho. Looking clean. You still can't see me in hand to hand combat,tho bruva LOL

[Diode]

i finally got back on the bench last night

.. proceeded to pop my rib again at BJJ this morning. almost 3 years to the day since the last time.

and now i have to get on a plane

fuck everything

[uh-oh]

Just checking in to let you all know you probably lift 3x what i would even attempt but youd catch hands

THE LOT OF YOU

#ETHUGGIN

[Ghost1]

lol weak fagits itt want to choose a dif venue cuz they wack at this one

I CANNOT DO WHAT YOURE DOING AT ALL

BUT I CAN DO THIS OTHER THING BETTER THAN YOU

lol at fighting. fucking mongrels/ if I WANTED to fight id just train boxing or MMA and fucking murder u dirt morons anyways. which actually......I am considering picking up boxing....though making time would be difficult




amen.....

I don't use wrist clips........u mean for deadlifting./....hooks? I just use chalk. anything else is cheating.

and yea machines are ok for isolation work but free weights are gonna save you a lot of time.

I lift for hypertrophy 3-4 days a week also......you still should be lifting for strength as well............that way your "light weight rep maxes" wont be so light weight and you can get an overall more productive hypertrophy session in.

I do a lot of conditioning (box jumps for height, jump rope, running, cycling) though also and GPP work (sled drags & farm walks)

restricting yourself to high rep machine work under the theory that this is optimal for building size and definition would be doing yourself a GRAVE disservice my man.

im 185lbs currently btw





and jesus diode lol......u falling apart. I cant say shit tho smh. ill be benching 155 this week lol.........shoulder doing good so just moving slowly........id love to bench 405 but that's probably just a pipe dream

[Amen]

Word...

I would just do quick paced small weight work outs in between reps at a quicker pace for conditioning. ie - small 10 lb dumb bells and work on foot positioning and jabs with combo's thrown in - nothing to crazy that would affect my elbows... More often then not would just jump rope with my leather cabled jump rope... Let me tell you, you fucked up with that and you would feel like JESUS did the night he was crucified... Shit fucked you up lol... But word..

And nah, I'd lift for strength but only would do it once a week, twice tops as I used to GYM it 5 days a week - alternating my days off pending how I felt.

You take any supps? I never fucked with them shits.. For some reason I tried the protein shakes and shit but my body retained WAYYYY too much water from them. Maybe it's just my body or maybe I was doing something wrong, as far as servings, IDK - but I do remember retaining way to much water...

[Ghost1]

lol I jump with a leather rope at the gym.....that shit stings but not nearly as bad as the wire rope I have LMAO fuckkkkk

an yea I used to drink protein shakes religiously for years.....had stomach issues depending on some brands but mostly no issue really

I used to take everything under the sun tho lol...pre workout...intra workout...post workout...protein shake....zma....and on and on



I deaded all that shit once I started counting macros. only supps I take now are creatine & fish oil....oh and I do take a multi vitamin, zinc and magnesium also. was taking glucosamine for my shoulder and joints in general but its expnsive and if I keep my workouts smart and my fat intake dece the fish oil seems to be sufficient.

[Finnydot]

Lifting is for queers.

[Diode]

and jesus diode lol......u falling apart. I cant say shit tho smh. ill be benching 155 this week lol.........shoulder doing good so just moving slowly........id love to bench 405 but that's probably just a pipe dream

being the best at exercising is a lot easier on the body than being the best at grapplefuckery for sure. i just have no reason to be the former anymore (married, kid, old) and i'm almost 6 years down the rabbit hole on the latter + i teach there now so i'm kind of committed.

gonna be a month or two without rolling though

T_T

the worst part is i popped it while clock choking this 225lb gorilla. turned up the torque on the lapel around his neck and just felt it go immediately.

sucked.

[Amen]

Any type of amino acid supp?

Heard it's good for post workout and heals torn muscle faster for a quicker growth over all.

And it helps with soreness.

My boys a fucking machine, dudes 1% fat 235 solid fucking muscle. He competes in body builder comps and told me about some amino acid shit he takes.
Diode - which belt? and word @ married, kid and old... I feel you bro, however I'm on my 3rd kid now (NEVER HAVING ANOTHER ONE AGAIN LOL) and my oldest is turning fucking 13 years old this November, so FUCKING WORD @ being old.

[big baby]

lmao i've seen h jump rope idk lmao fuck off

[big baby]

amen stfu zany type of amino acid no NIGGA OR MAYBE SO WHO THE FUCK CARES TAKE UR SHITTY BCAAAS AND STFU WITH UR LONG EINDED ASS PARAGRAPGS NOBODY GIVES A SHIT YOU HOME DEPOT MANAGER FAGGOT

[Ghost1]

lmao gone


an yea I used to take aminos/bcaas ....along with a handful of other shit I didn't really need after fixing my diet

if youre getting .8-1g of protein per lb of bodyweight you will be getting the necessary amount of branch chain amino acids to build muscle & strength

you could take it prior to a fasted workout and it would be helpful......but working out fasted is retarded lol.


supplements are good if you cant get the proper amounts in real food (you can)

[Amen]

Word, but I have to ask... Does that shit get exhausting?

Like constantly counting ingredients in every meal? lol... Or do you generalize and have a basic concept of whats what and just stick with that?

[Amen]

amen stfu zany type of amino acid no NIGGA OR MAYBE SO WHO THE FUCK CARES TAKE UR SHITTY BCAAAS AND STFU WITH UR LONG EINDED ASS PARAGRAPGS NOBODY GIVES A SHIT YOU HOME DEPOT MANAGER FAGGOT

My name is not Seth, bro. I do not work in retail LOL...

It's 2017 there's an app! Lol.....but word I mean even plugging food into the app gets boring....but exactly like you said....or eluded to.....after the first month or 2 I was able to pretty much be able to look at whatever type food and just know the macros for it....so the first few months r a little tough...........and I say little cuz honestly entering food u eat into an app ain't that hard lol. So but after u do that for a while u will just be able to do it without the app.........and what's a few months in the scheme of ur life

[Zaddy]

Someone rep bb for me

[veritas]

This vegan burger tastes delicious.

Felt strong af on 295 deadlifts 3x5 fixing to go 3 plates bro.


And props by the way.

[Ghost1]

how long have you been doing 3x5? time for me to put you onto 531 broheem

[veritas]

Elab please?

[Ghost1]

3x5 (starting strength) and or 5x5 (bill starr) are the essential foundations for strength

but now that linear gains have ended its time to switch to an intermediate program to utilize periodization

I owe you a book


finna bless you

[veritas]

I await.
