I Got A Feeling

Ouch! That sounds sucky

I was going to pretend I knew what fluff volume was, but I donā€™t.

yes - I should have mentioned I was sore as F for a few days.

its what everyone who isnt strong does at the gym

and what people who would rather be strong do when they are
too banged up

Iā€™ve been doing these periodically and they are deceptively difficult.

Nice squats. Had to look up Dimmel Deadlift. Stiff leg except bottom half at start and finish?

yes the TRX face pull is nice took me a while to
find the right angle/set up I think I like them more then with the rope/pulldown

thanks Hel-

Love Dimel 's
came out of westside named after a lifter
really are great at blowing up your hamstrings and Glutes

here is OG Dave Tate demonstrating

I send my hips back and concentrate on pushing hips thru
and flexing the glutes

Here is another vid this guy also trained at westside
Jordan Syat - this video is good because its from the side.

C bb ab roll out 4x10
D1 trx face pull 4x10
D2 pull thru 4x15
E machine seated row 4x10

notes
pull ups- did something 8,7 5 5 5maybe I did 30 dont know

deadā€™s- wanted one of the better bars- had to use the stiff bar
it was stiff as fuck these weigh 50 lbs so add 5lbs to all the numbers who cares
left leg - no drive

still nursing the right bicep- used a forearm compression cuff
but still cautious - looks like I can re build a respectable squat but pulls are limited - 405 might be the top of what I can pull-
the hamstring -back of knee- is the limit here.

ab rollouts - these sucked needs work
bicep - is fukked- work isnā€™t helping either
all being said- was grateful to move something modest heavy

pretty sure if I find time I can squat 500+
pretty sure Im there on deads.
meh

Like the look of the Dimels. Think they may be more useful in the shot than the regular dead. Trying them next back day.

I like money- and healthcare.
Im good at my job so I like it.

Youā€™re about as romantic as I am with respect to employment; it puts food on the table, Iā€™m good at it and I mostly like what I do. I donā€™t expect anything more.

duh.

Good stuff in the video
