How I had the bands set up...it was very difficult to walk back with the bands like this...

Both of them were tightened around the bar 3x...not too much fun at all...

Any idea how much band tension I was looking at? I had them weighted down with 265 pounds on each side and they were still slightly moving...

I dunno what's louder ... the music, the plates banging together, or your scream at the end of each set. Haha.

Great work bud. And yeah, how's that back feeling?

The high rep leg extensions are fun...I just keep thinking that they may help with the sled drag at Nationals...

My back...we aren't discussing it at the moment...

I just read the thread on the Chat board man. I can totally understand your desire and need for the contest completely. But dude, you're young. There are other contests. I know it is your dream, but dreams last forever. Unfortunately, injuries do too ...

I know I'm not gonna change your mind, but please lift intelligently man. Be careful. Stay strong.

btw.. You look like you've packed on some more beef in your arms and shoulders...

I am getting bigger for sure. Finally found my way back to the fridge Still possible to weigh 290+ by October 5th.

As far as my back...as long as I can walk, train, study, go to class, etc...I can compete. I am sure that I will hurt for many days after that contest...but I can not compete and wonder if I gave it my all. I am yet to compete and REALLY want the win. I want it now!!!

There are people that I want to see there for sure (Night Fly, mother and father, Hannibal, Crimson King, HumorMe, etc...) and I do feel that the win will not mean as much to me if they are not there...but I am doing this contest for me. When it is all over...no one will be there but myself... I guess that Night Fly and my mother and father are the only ones that see me when I get up in the morning, see how much pain I often go through (especially now), see it in my eyes how badly I want to win, and can feel my dreams just from looking at me.

It is too bad that far too few people see my dreams as something respectable...

Friends are a matter of quality, not quantity...IMO. You know I will be there for your contest...

Any idea what the band tension might be on these? It was HEAVY!!!!
