Thanks Hawkcapt-

just trying to keep it going
Was a busy week.
2/29/16

extensive mobility leg felt like petrified wood.
leg swings - lunge variations band work etc.
TRX
inverted row- pushup 5x10 each
A lying ham curls 5 sets of Many
A squat
bar many , 65, 95,135x10 185 225 275 315 all x 5
B bb lunge 135 3x8 each

225 x5 315 x5 all hook snatch width 225 2x10
D rope crap - pull thrus, standing abs 4x15-20
E rope tabata 8 rounds of 20/10
notes
trx stuff- needs loading or more volume
Ive been playing a bit more with these - you can do allot-
but its tricky with the fake leg to get to some of the more fun stuff.
squats where hard
hard enough for a derp face.
pulls - are tricky - I have no leg drive from the floor
played with some snatch pulls- no go on these either-
speed is there- leg drive is no where
I should probably not be doing this shit at all.
I have been doing more conditioning and GPP crap
but the good feels squats make are hard to top.
ropes tabata - a nesscary evil and more work/fun then other crap cardo
Solid work Kev, as always… this log always reminds me of how little I do…
Thanks OG I just think of how much volume body builder types do
Some training

Hand stand push-ups getting better got 8 reps a few times
rack pulls suck balls
Used straps on the 405
Not a fan of straps not sure how to hook with them
Tabata ugly but needed
Glad to know it.
Some improve the signal to noise ratio. I am more the comic relief.
Glad to see you are still working your ass off. When you say “hook” with the straps do you mean hook grip? Because you don’t have to. The strap is a longer, non pain sensitive thumb. That is why they are awesome. They keep my delicate hands from having to work as hard.

hmmmm.
I try to make my hands look delicate - needs work.
I tend to hook anything I do dbl overhand.
I have no idea how to use straps correctly
some training 3/3/16
lots of mobility stuffs
lunges x 6,789,654,321,124

150 x 2 240 x2 330 x 10
B1 sled backwards drag 4 plates x8
B2 pull back with rope 3 plates x8
more mobility stuff like allot.
notes
TRX stuff you can really make these difficult
playinig with just speed - holds etc
Trap bar
these while difficult might be what I need
to satisfy the urge to ’ go heavy’
also - even if you are lean- something somewhere will jiggle
sled drag pull-
these are the same 25 feet ish
been doing the drags and they wear that fake leg out fast- they do help.
pulling the loaded sled with a fat rope- fun for days.
I pulled the 4 plates hand over hand a few times then
just loaded for 4 on the drag - walked a plate back-
then pulled the sled back with just the three plates
These might be my new favorite shit to do.
huge swole
If I could have added OH squats and Hanging leg raise feet to face into this I would have
spin off crap from the fake leg - makes those beyond difficult.
otherwise a fun ass fucking session
If you are using the sporting goods grade straps.
You could try putting a clear coat on your nails.
Regards,
Robert A

sle drag/pull
draggind wut 5 pts - took two off walked them back
and pulled with 3 pts
shit left me for dead.
Do you prefer trap bar walks to just regular dumbbell carries? What are the differences in feel?
I ask because anytime I read about trap bar carries, I think about all the extra time and setup it takes to do versus the old pickup and carry with dumbbells.
PG- thanks for stopping by.
good to see you
there is a room - in this gym with all the TRX shit- matts to stretch on and a small astro turf.
Its easier to bring the trap bar there- then the dumbelss across the gym.
so I guess I like the trap bar better.

Happy easter or passover - or what not
Can’t figure what happened but my post ended up back on Jan 29th of your thread. But this is what I said.
Nice squats and tabata Kev. I had to look up bss. Bulgarian split squats. I hate those. Probably because I suck at them. Usually only takes 2-3 lines of stuff to get me feeling dead.
And happy Easter or Passover to you as well.
