Yes. Work the logistics. Otherwise, perhaps we can work on something. Let me know how it stands. I can always offer help. You should check out andy bolton's site. Ask him for a PL friendly gym. I remember him listing a whole bunch out a while ago.
to those who asked I am not totally sure why I was banned because whoever banned me put this as the reason "you better get your ass into the purgatory forum and get talking" lol. I have a pretty good idea though I was fucking around in chat with a few other people and it seems like I had been blamed for something I didn't do. Anyway the ban has been lifted (it was meant to be a 2 week ban) and I had the bulk of today as a time out so I'm not going to bother going on about it and asking questions or anything. But thanks to whichever mod unbanned me!
Fucking retardeddude I just wish for once those guys would do full reps. Still that is pretty damn strong, he also did 315x21 reps in his other video and said his max was 530 raw. I just looked and I am almost the same strength right now as I was i march, over 5 months ago
You'd still want to use your left hand first.
Good job bro...I work out reps on the 250
i know i know bro but one thing at a time right? First I gotta get onto the 200 before I even think of the 250 lol. Maybe this time next year I will be getting close to needing the 250... hopefully Ill get better at them when Im done cutting too
yeah I'm gonna start working on the grippers cause 250x50 reps would be good. I should have bought the 200 though 150 to 250 is too big a jump
What a weak performance! Jdick would school your ass! Jk man haha!Glad to see you back in action man! Lmao so you could only do 7 reps at 187?

Yeah that is what I was saying my videos were always not deadhang:
I posted the video because I was showing that as typical non-deadhang use momentum form. I was just wondering if your form was like that or not. BTW, after doing deadhang ones for a little while I was able to get 14 deadhang reps so your body adjusts quickly. And in that video none but the last and 1st one were deadhang which was the point of posting it
sorry i thought i rememebred you saying you did a video of deadhang pullups and i thought you meant it was that one.
no i dont use that much momentum i dont think, like i said ill video them. Squatting tomorrow cant wait
Wasn't as bad as I thought. There was a shuttle run type thing which I didn't have time to do, wall squat hold, vertical jump test, balance test, reaction time test, max situps in 30 sec and a flexibility test.
Whatever we scored was either rated poor, fair, average, good or excellant. There was like a table for each event telling what we achieved.
I got good and average in everything except the max situps in 30 sec, got excellant on that one and beat everyone with 30 situps in 30 secs.
Didn't look up what my wall squat hold was but just kept going till I beat my partner, pretty sure I beat everyone in the class to with 2 mins 30 sec. Called it quits there cause it was the end of the lesson and I had beat my partner...
PS I know tcock will say it so I'm saying now I don't care if 30 in 30 secs isn't excellant according to the army or rangers or whatever
Haha that's hilarious...plus T can't make fun of you since he's 2 away from maxingJust kidding T!
Anyway, 30 in 30 secs is pretty damn awesome actually, as long as it's full army situps and not the marine corps 'crunch.'
how about marine 3 mile compared to army 2mile?
Be careful.
Thanks. I'm only just coping lol. It's embarrassing, my upper body pressing has suffered the most. I can do about 10 dips right now at 188-190, when bulking I could do 4 dips with a 44lb plate plus my 206lb bodyweight lol I could also do 11 bodyweight reps so I'm actually doing less reps right now at a lighter bodyweight lol.
Sucks because this fag at school must have got pissed at the reputation I had for being big and strong because now I'm on the sixth form with him he has been saying to people to ask me what my best benchpress is so he can beat it lol. He is 3 years older than me btw.
What makes it worse is someone said to me at school the other day "You don't look as broad as you used to..." I do look smaller in clothes right now especially after a few days of low carbs when I'm looking a little flat... Makes me embarrassed to even go out the house lol
I didn't know you were 16 years old. I wasn't recommending you do anabolics. Just giving general background on cutting down and the realities of it.
215 at 5'7" and 16 years old is pretty damn tankish. I was 167lbs at 16 and roughly the same height with a good year+ bodybuilding style training.
Honestly I would dump cutting and just focus on getting stronger and stronger and then when you hit like 19-20 cut it down. If you make consistent progress until then you will likely be strong as fuck and big enough to really rip it down and look badass come college time.
Imo.

wow this is a big post
not in any order...
1. tired of being fat, aesthetic reasons
2. being fat put me in a higher up weight class in PLing and basically made my lifts look worse because I weighed more
3. had just grown out of the 198's and didnt want to compete at the bottom of the 220's
4. better health
5. needed a break from heavy lifting
to put it into perspective imagine having a really hot wife. She is so hot you get compliments from other dudes and girls all the time but for some reason you and her cannot have sex or anything of the sort. People are always saying wow it must be awesome to fuck her but you know you never have done. If you always say no its not really that awesome then people think you are just fishing for more compliments. Eventually you have to split up with the wife which sucks at the time but when its all sorted and you find a new gf/wife maybe not as hot you can start fucking her and it will be better in the long run.
well my situation was like that. I was big and people couldnt really tell I was fat so everyone was always saying how big i was and stuff and I got quite alot of compliments, and people said wow it must feel so good to be big and stuff but for me it wasnt, even though I was big I couldnt do anything with it, I couldnt show it off because I looked like shit without a shirt on. I looked good in the gym when I was lifting but when my shirt came up and my belly hung out it didnt look good lol. So on the surface to other people everyone thought it was awesome but it really wasnt and no one really understood. It was like having the hot wife but really she's hot for no reason because you cant put it to any use. I looked good in a hoodie but not much else lol. And my waist size was getting bigger. When I said to people Im really not that good looking Im pretty fat they were like "omg no your not!" and i would sound like a girl if I was always saying oooh im so fat lol.
long winded explanation but I hope you get it now lol. Im not that much better off now but my waist size has dropped alot and Im still getting smaller, granted when I wear my hoodies I no longer look as imposing and stick out in public as much but Im putting up with that for now, it kills me and makes me not want to go out the house lol.
hey dude
If you know this why have you been cheering EM on? You should've said this the second he posted he about wanting to do this ridiculous cut and what not. Instead you've been beating around the bush. Don't do that. Remember when I first started posting here you guys were all up EM's ass telling him how awesome he was...and then he got injured. And you guys had seem his terrible DL videos. None of y'all should've encouraged him at the time.
bullshit. I'm not trying to offend you here but with your lifting numbers there is no way you are that jacked. You are almost certainly 20%+ bodyfat which is unhealthy. Resting heart rate, although an important indicator of cardio health means shit for the rest of your health. You got to remember too that he is 16 years old I do believe 5'7 210 is a little too much weight for a 16 year olds joints to be carrying around. This is an interesting discussion though but even if em is 8% bodyfat 210 pound is a little heavy to be carrying around on a 5'7 frame at 16 years old. If he were 20 this would be a different story thoughThat's crap.
I'm 5'8.5" and 233lbs stripped. My resting heart rate was taken as 64bpm today and that was after drinking a 5 hour energy. I had to go through a series of 4 max effort exercises on iso-kinetic machines and it was literally one of the hardest workouts I have ever done. Even after a 5rm on a simultaneous back extension/flexion maching where I was generating over 358lbs of force from the spinal erectors alone and over 170lbs on the flexion(think cable crunch) my heart rate didn't go past 132bpm and that's about 20 seconds of all out full force effort through the full range of the concentric and eccentric phases of the lift.
210lbs at 5'7" is not too big for your health unless your are a total fatass with zero cardio.
I'm not gonna bother saying why I think it's waste of time to be cutting, but I just wanted to clarify I don't agree with this.
I know a serious powerlifter who is 5'6" and 230lbs and he is built like a fuckin brick shit house.
I will admit I have not seen EM, so maybe he does look like a chubby fuck and has no cardio.
P.S. Sometimes it's difficult to hear the tough love which is what Andalite was doing. If you want to take it completely negative like that then that's your choice, but don't go complaining when you're still pushing shit weight a year from now.
Lol.
I could blow your assumptions on relative bodyweight to height and age and it's affect on health away from all the guy's I knew in high school, but what's the point?
Something else to consider is that a strong, healthy lifting bodyfat % for many lifters is between 10-20% depending on genetics. Standard heavy weight powerlifter and weightlifter bodyfat % is around 15-20%. For many people trying to lift big on sub 15% bodyfat is not actually ideal for a host of reasons that I won't bother going into here. Everyone's untrained natural bodyfat varies as well. You might sit at 14% doing nothing. I might be 17%, but proportionally much bigger.
You're assuming alot. I've been around alot of high level lifter's and around a handful of absolute genetic freaks as well as studied the iron game for close to 17 years now and have made as many stupid mistakes as anyone so I'm generally not spewing bullshit when I say something nowadays.
I've gained roughly 28lbs in the last 4 months just lifting and eating. Add in muscle memory and I've put just under 100lbs for reps on both bench and squat in that time. In 6 months to a year I'll be far stronger. Am I concerned about carrying a little extra bodyfat? No. I train hard in the gym. Most of my food intake is pretty solid. I supplement with fish oil, vitamin/minerals. I do moderate cardio a couple times a week. I feel solid. My heart rate is below the average healthy heart rate for my age and my blood pressure is normal. I have gained bodyfat, but relative to my untrained state I haven't gained that much.
Good luck with your lifting.
