Comments: Fuck yeah 170 went up pretty well. 415 dead was pretty hard. Some guy commented on my no belt/no gloves/dbl overhand..although I explained to him what a hook grip was lol. Then some [unt came over and said that I need to lower the weight down under control so I don't hurt their floor. I don't think the bitch realized I was already lowering it under control, just not as slowly as she wanted. USF gym is run by a bunch of pussies.

dude u did 415 dbl overhand thats sick! I wish I had the grip to do that. Im also gonna wait till after my pct to start the 5x3. When you set it up do u make a 5lb jump each week for every lift?

 

[ExtraMile]

dude same happened to me today gym manager told me Im dropping the weight too fast lol and I was taking between 1 and 2 seconds on the negatives lol

lol no no I wish I could lift that dbl overhand...that's what he thought but I was actually using a hook grip so I explained to him that it wasn't a pure dbl overhand.

oh isnt hook grip harder? And what about my 5lb jump question

Once you get used to the hook grip it's soo much easier than dbl overhand. I didn't mean to miss the question lol, no you jump up 2.5% each time.

Comments: Last day of this routine...I'm pretty much at my max triples. I'm going to start the 5x1 with 85% of my estimated 1rm and not 90% to allow more recovery and ramping up...should take 6 weeks before hitting PRs.

 

[JDid23]

nice man.... for the 5x1, it's only 1 real working set isn't it?

EDIT: btw, isn't a hook grip a double overhand grip? lol

 

[ExtraMile]

damn thats gonna be low volume! are you gonna add in any assistance exercises? 5 total reps for each lift and only 1 hard rep for each lift? If I were you I would put in assistance stuff in the 6-12 rep range but I know its not your style...

 

[Tblock1]

Lol yes 6 weeks of oso not progresing so I can catch up to him muahahahhahaha

 

[oso0960]

Jdid - Yeah it's only 1 real working set of 1 rep lol. I guess it's a dbl overhand grip but I think of a hook grip as using the thumb to help and a dbl overhand as no thumb.

EM - I'll still do abs and chins in the higher rep ranges..maybe add dips... but nothing else.

Tblock - fuck you no you won't.
