Nice! Strong! Well done.

Are your shoulders really as wide as most doorways, or is that just the perspective of the video? …only half joking…

I rent my back out on the weekends to show movies on. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

3 board close grip pause bench is the longest exercise name I’ve ever used. I need to add chains and bands next time. 3 board close grip pause bench with chains and bands.

What movie are you showing this weekend?

907

Herbie the love bug and Jaws II

Got up at 5 this morning and hit the basement. I’ve never done dynamic effort before. My weights need to be lowered the next workout because things didn’t move very fast.

12/8

  1. 17’’ box squat 255+chains x10x2
  2. 4’’ elevated deadlift 315x6x1
  3. hyperext BWx3 sets
  4. leg curls 3 sets
  5. sit ups 3 sets

I’ve read people die more often training in the morning. Doctors say something about hormone levels and blah,blah,blah. I think its just nature weeding out the dumb ones because there has to be something wrong with you to train in the morning.

Just kidding Paul.

908

Hahaha…Amen !!

909

Biker and I both train in the morning. We’re still kicking. 5:00 AM is not so bad, once you get used to it. Hopefully I don’t stroke out next week, after writing this…

  2. cg pause 4 board press 135x10 225x10 275x10,7 225x12
  3. pushdowns 70x20 80x15
  4. DB rows 150x8,8
  5. 1 set chin ups to failure
  6. 2 sets of lateral raise, front raise, band pull apart, hammer curls

Things moved quickly. Now I need to get my squat and deadlift DE weights moving this fast. Oddly I think my regular bench is stronger than my 4 board press.

I forgot to ask if you’re a multiplex cinema.

Thanks guys but remember it was 3 board. I like the cambered bar for rows. You can’t use as much weight but the ROM is better. I actually can feel it more in my lats.

917

congrats on your meet- good work.
I thought the 410 bench looked good too.

918
