So Joker, how's your lovely wife comgin along in her training?

Really well. She just joined the YMCA. (Believe it or not, they had the best assortment of equipment and cheapest child care.) She says she gets a lot of weird looks when she hack squats +400 or free-weight squats. (That's my girl.:D) Apparently, nobody in there has any idea what those big cage lookin' things are in there.:D

I believe she just told me she only has a few more pounds to go to get back to her pre-pregnancy weight. So, she's pretty happy.


Thanks for asking.:)

:D

She was getting so frustrated. That's great news.

Sorry to hijack, CCJ.

How's that deadlift coming along?
 
Debaser... I like your spirit... I also like the fact that your posts aren't straight out aggitation like they were when you first started to post here. ;)

I've been working out for around 8 years... I trained in a competitive sport for 4... and I'm STILL learning new shit every freeking day about different things... techniques of bodybuilding... I just learned about a Westside speed bench routine yesterday that I am going to incorporate, with some alterations, next week...

I don't try to come down on too many peoples workouts, unless they are really outlandish... like "NOT WORKING BACK OR LEGS" -- or training biceps 5x a week... I think one thing everyone would agree on here, is that some workouts are doomed from the get go... ;)

All I have to say is always read things from the perspective of another person, and realize that there may be 10 different ways to get from A to BIG. ;)

CCJ:

First of all, I will skip most of the things posted on here.

I am very proud of you. Always have been, always will be. Remember that.

Finding the proper way to deadlift, squat...heck...ANY lift...comes with time and doing it over and over and over...and over again. It comes with LOTS of time doing them. YOU will find what works best for YOU...I have faith in that.

It just so happens that I have found that the principles that Spatts has outlined above, and throughout this thread/board, are the ones that work for me also.

Keep pulling, keep working...you will succeed.

Your form is a perfect example of what I am trying to teach my son...

ass low, back upright, maybe 45 degrees. Begin the lift with legs, and then finish with back.

I think that this way will be teh safest for him to gain strength and to minimize possibility of injury. This also seems to be the best way to get better gains in terms of weight being lifted.

I am no expert, adn I won't argue with the experts on here, but this form is what I am using as an example...
 
Debasser, to answer your question, yes, a gym in Kansas City. I'm one of three powerlifters I know of in Kansas City, and the other two are my training partners. :)
