Have you ever had abs like this?

[Smurfy]

yes now but I'd give up an ab or two for more muscle mass

agreed.

What is this Zercher squat you speak of?

Kinda like a Tate press, but totally different.

 

[samoth]

Nevermind. That looks like it would hurt your arms.

Not as painful as DLing off knee-high pins for 10+ reps at over 500lbs (for grip work). I tore a callouse straight off. Returned the nice white gym towel back to them half stained in red... they just gave me that glare, lol.

Now if I could only do just one rep without having one hand supine... it seems so easy, but it's damned hard, lol.

I can get 10 maybe 12 reps DL'ing 315 but I need straps. I can maybe get 3 or 4 without them. My grip sucks. Stupid T-rex forearms...

Nice work. Most people never achieve that.
I will kill myself the day I don't have abs.

You'll be missed.

who gives a shit about someone having abs @ 180lbs

maybe you should model for next season's abercrombie and fitch kids catalog

and before you say i'm jealous:

i'm sick of you prancing around C&C like it's your inflated balloon-head's personal supply of self-esteem boosting helium

yes, we know you're not tiny. yes, we know you're not hugely fat. yes, we know you make decent money and live in San Diego. yes, we know you fuck 7/10 chicks, which is good for a 5/10 guy. yes, we know you love your life and your right bicep. yes, we know you can impress fatty mcbiologicaltimeclockrunningoutbutistillwanttogetlaid, yes Lestat, we know.

jelus alert!!!!!

jelus alert!!!!!

It's ok to be jealous of Swole.

 

[jackangel]

when you say "abs like this", is it merely for reference? or are you saying that you're ripped (i.e. impressively lean) in those pics?

I was the same way when I was BBing. I switched over to PLing (Westside and Militia) and incorporated grip work. I've never used straps since.

(Hey, give it a shot, grip strength can be important and stuff. Just look at Priest's hand muscle growth thingy, lololol.)
