1/3 DE squat

[Liftbig]

De squats w/ red bar- 15x2@315

rev hyper-4x10

GHR-4x10 back raised on 5 board

decline abs w/ 75 pound vest- 3 sets (saw DB doing these so i thought id do them for a change. now i know what it feels like to walk around at close to 500 lbs, good thing im droppin weight)

standing abs- 4 sets

shoulder horn- 5x12

pull downs- 5x12 (with bar that looks like \_______/ )

this was a good workout today, after squats i did the rev hypers and ghr pretty fast, this got my heart rate up ALOT. first time using the red bar and i really liked it, i think its going to help my regular squat out alot, it really forced me to drive my head back into the bar, which i sometimes have problems with.

Hehee...I was trying to figure out why you were only squatting 1/3 of the way. I'm on medication for bronchitis...please excuse.

What's a red bar?

 

[Jagermeister]

I think its a modified SS bar

Yeah, Louie modified it to make the damned thing harder, along with 2x4's on the mono lift to increase band tension when using bands. Liftbig-there is a smaller 25lb vest you can add to the big vest once you get use to it.

lol spatts, having an off day i see


ill have to use the extra vest on monday, i like the vest alot better than holding plates, no more risk of castration if the weight slips.

thats just the medication are you training through the bronchitis?

No. I'm doing AR with bands and some walking, as it seems to help with the aches.
