Another thing is you always have a "chest up" attitude. You never hang neutral. I don't mean you have to "dead hang" and let the static reflex melt but you are holding your body forward and you legs back. So you have to fight this tendancy to pendulum.

If your legs are going to be back and you are not going to use them then it would probably help if you ended each rep underneath the bar.

If on the other hand you end up needing to use you feet by kickig the knees forward then the trick is to end the rep by letting the legs down. And then back up in a fluid motion. This way you arrest that motion each time a stabilize without extra effort.

I actually have my pullup bar set up to swing like a tapeze...but I don't swing back and forth. So I know you can do it on a stable bar!

alrighty. gotcha

thanks!!

Keep up the good work man.

If you have a problem with kicking your legs during pullups, just put your friend Thomas in front of you. You kick your legs, you kick his face*...

*This only works if they're a fairly good friend

lol....i would do that however Thomas is dating a girl who's a very good friend of mine....so ive told he's off limits for pranks and the like

haha

nah....ill deal with the pull-ups by doing what E said...hanging more neutrally. one of the main reasons i hesitate to hang neutrally is because im scared ill disloacte my shoulder...but thats an irrational fear.

thanks for the well wishes, kane

thanks, sir. the shoulder makes me remember some bad times.....i wont worry anymore.

EricT · 04-01-2008, 10:51 AM

Well I didn't mean relax your shoulders anway. I think if you can't keep your shoulders in while hanging that's a whole nother problem...but I'm sure you'll be fine.

Squat Day
Cycle 13

Overall Impression:

so i went in at 11:00 pm tonight to workout thinking the gym must be empty...guess what? it was FULL!!! what are the chances of THAT?

so....i went in today to the gym around 4:00 pm but i was worried and stressed about too many things. i guess this must be a sign that ive wizened up a bit but i decided not to workout after warming up till 225 because i know that whenever i am in those distracted moods i always injure myself. so i decided to go back. anyways, i finished doing what i had to do, felt relieved and decided to hit the gym. i am glad i came back to the gym at 11:00 pm inspite of so many people being there.

The Workout:

Deep Squats
- 275 lbs x 3 reps
- 275 lbs x 2 rep
- 275 lbs x 1 rep
- 225 lbs x 3 reps x 3 sets
- 185 lbs x 5 reps
So.....i decided to squat properly today with heavier weights. nailed 275. felt really easy. next time goal is to get 3,3,1. then the time after i want a clean 275x3x3. if i get that, it means i am back where i used to be strongest on the squat: 295x4. however, i doubt ill be taking 295 for a while...im just too lazy

Regular Romanian Deadlifts without lockout
- 95 lbs x 12 reps x 2 sets
focussed a bit more on form here

Ab Work
- Hanging Leg Raises = 20 lbs x 8 reps x 2 sets
- Overhead Plate Side Bends = 10 lbs x 10 reps x 2 sets
The hanging leg raises were a bit hard. i wasnt able to lift my feet completely to shoulder level without having to use momentum. im gonna reduce the weight to 5 lbs next time.

Grip Work
- Incline Dumbbell Curls = 35 lbs x 6 reps x 2 sets
- Hammer Curls = 35 lbs x 5 reps x 2 sets
i hate this type of bicep work..

	EricT's Sig:I'm tired of the myth that bb'rs aren't flexible. As a group, they are extremely flexible. They have an amazing ability to bend over, place their heads between their legs, and blow smoke up their own asses.
