Failure.

[gettinlarger]

Was so psyched today. Had so much energy. So much positivity. I was so fucking ready.

And I failed ...

I am so pissed off. I should have had it. I dont know what my fucking problem was.

Looks like I have found a weakness. It's time to strengthen it.

 

[Mr.Kachok]

[SeanHolmz]

I am very happy to have so many people post up on my other thread though, having believed in me that I could do it.

Thank you all.

I am so glad you're pissed, disappointed, accountable, humbled...you're going to need all that next week when you try again.

Now about that weakness....

 

[BodybuildingUniverse]

damn, I was rootin for ya.

ok, so whats the weakness? tell us about how the lift went, stance, etc. Get it off the ground at all or were there giant magnets underneath the floor?

 

[gettinlarger]

I may have gotten it 1/16 inch off the floor.

Goddammit. I feel like putting someone through a wall.

 

[spatts]

OK...so let's talk about speed and high box deads.

Show me your progression today...what did you do working up?

 

[gettinlarger]

135 for 5
225 for 3
275 for 1
315 for 1
365 for 1
405 for a big fat fucking 0.

 

[spatts]

Personally, I need smaller jumps sometimes toward the end. If your previous record is 375, I would've done something like this:

135 x 3
185 x 3
215 x 3
245 x 1
275 x 1
315 x 1
340 x 1
385 x 1 PR
405 x 1

Sometimes a 40 pound jump, when you're in PR range, can really f' with your mind. It feels heavier than it should. I do make an exception with the 340-385 jump because you already KNOW you can do 375. So get the small PR, put the feather in your cap, and go for more!

 

[Alucard]

You may have jumped too far between your failed attempt and the set before it.

 

[gettinlarger]

Hmm. Next time I deadlift heavy, I'll be sure to try that. Thanks spatts.

BTW, why is it you remember my previous PR?

Go back to the gym and do not come home till you do it.

 

[Alucard]

Go back to the gym and do not come home till you do it.

That's the attitude I take. Very good.

I believe I have read that Metal Militia fellows take the same mode of thinking. I respect that highly.

Why give your body a choice, when you can give it an order?

 

[gonelifting]

Go back to the gym and do not come home till you do it.

I love that. damn.

That's what it is about. When you say you are going to do it - you do it. Period.

This is one of the defining moments in a person's life.

 

[PolishHammer1977]

Agreed.

It's time to visualize and attack brother
