Blut Wump - Korte 3x3

[Guinness5.0]

It only bothers me in situations where my arms are dangling in front of me when I'm in a stooped-over position. .

So walking hurts?

Was 140kg a PR attempt? At least it's nice to know you can get it past that old sticking point, that's a big mental block for me, like I can feel it approaching as I'm lowering the bar lol

EDIT: @ Guinness.

Yes it was a PR attempt. Before the Korte, I'd managed a very hard 135Kg.

I really felt I had this one today and eased off to squeeze out the top part, thinking it was done and dusted, and the bar just slowed to a stop. As the bar was coming down, I didn't feel at any stage that I was passing down through a sticking point. I think I just, simply, blew it.

That ape-walk position is exactly the one that hurts. I usually drift into it while playing with the dogs. Sneezing no longer hurts, which is good. I did rows today up to 100Kgx3x3 and they gave me no grief.

Sticking points are a funny thing - for me, for bench it's right at the bottom, for squat it's at parallel and dead is right off the floor. Mentally I feel like if I can get it past there I'll get the rep, I think I relax too.

God forbid I find I have two sticking points

Anyway, sounds like you're a lot stronger from Korte, nice. I bet dollars to donuts you get your bench next week. Too bad you can't dead that would be a nice barometer too.

I like the new avi. BW, you're a monster.

Someone said my arms were poorly. 'Sick' I think he said.

120Kg had to go somewhere once I'd evicted most of it from my abdomen. I just think I'm weak for my size, though. I guess it just takes time to develop the CNS side.

You need to see a veterinarian...


















You're pythons are sick

Your avi has me rolling around laughing, it's hilarious!

Jim's right, those are sick arms. Very inspiring.

I got the 150Kg Squat.

It wasn't easy but I felt that it was easy enough that I'd go for 155Kg which I failed. I think I went down wrong or something with the 155Kg it didn't really feel like it was there and my heart wasn't in it when I came to push up. Who knows? I'll try for more next Monday.

Nice, right about what you projected. Are you belting up now in these last few weeks?
