Dude that is so true haha! I don't think jdid is gay though.....maybe bi but not gay. Lol jk glad you had fun on your trip jdid. My strength is coming back quick, I pulled 2x3x410 yesterday which is actually a pr. What sucks though is I am leaving for another backpacking trip next wednesday. I love the outdoors but losing strength sucks

Question: I deadlifted yesterday 7/9/10 friday...and got 2x3x410, first set really hard, failed 4th, 2nd set much easier for whatever reason, I think I could have gotten 4 or 5, and my form was much better 2nd set. So I'm deadlifting one more time before my trip, probably tuesday, or 3 rest days in between, but after squats. Any ideas on what I should go for? I'm thinking 410x5, and maybe 410x3 after that. I just want to stay strong over the trip and come back pulling 475 soon

Comments: Fantastic workout! I read an article on stretch reflex vs actual muscle contraction on tmuscle. So I decided to see how much stretch reflex accounted for my strength. Answer: Not really at all. They say if you can do the same weight for paused pin press without momentum as you can for regular bench you are well balanced. SWEET!

Comments: Another fantastic workout! The first set was motherfucker, even the 1st rep felt hard at 410 lol! The next 2 were teeth grinding back rounding bitches. Weirdest thing though is I got the biggest hit of endorphins ever from those reps, way more than running. I literally felt like I was blazed lol! Then I decided to do a 2nd set, thinking even 2 reps would be hard. I got all 3 reps easy, I could have done 4-5....every vein was a poppin though. I love planks too!!!!!

Funny story though 2 little kids came in (like 12 or younger) and they came straight up to my bar with 410 on it and they were admiring it, their eyes were bulging and they were like man how mcuh is that lol! They tried to lift it a little..............no dice!

Great stuff bro, muscle memory is an amazing phenomenon. After strength loss you gain back to your previous strength in mere weeks and often surpass where you were at.

Good workouts man.

It's an awesome feel when kids or even teenagers that don't have shit attitudes notice some real iron lifted.

Today at the gym I saw this skinny kid do like 5 sets of triceps extension and like 10 sets of curls. Wanted to palm my forward. Had the biggest urge to give the kid some advice, but I have done that in the past and most people just get pissed off.

Excellent progress.
