Gender:  |  So marv, you're elbow problem is because you broke it before? Just wondering because that is the only reference I've seen to what could be wrong so I don't know if I missed any recent aggravating event. Anyway, I don't know if this will help but for any nagging joint problems I've found a heat rub before the workout to be very useful. I've used it extensively for both elbows and shoudlers. Trust me, you go to a hardcore lifter's club and besides a lot of chalk in the air you will also smell a lot of menthol  |

Gender: | Gday Eric. Thanks for stopping in. My left elbow doesnt Quite lock out. I broke it years ago and had to do alot of physio to get it moving again. The recent problem started after mucking around at the local pool. I strained my arm. It seemed ok after a couple of hours, but it flared up a week later after doing bent over rows. Its on the mend. I will have to get some chalk man. I will also get some deep heat if I have any further troubles. Marv |

Gender: | Sunday 2nd November PR day Squat 142.5kg 2x5,1x3 Bench 115kg 2x3,1x1,1x3 Rows 107.5kg 3x5 Gripwork 80kg 3x5 Squat form was a little out towards the end. I started to push with the legs instead of driving with the hips. This is something I have not done before. It only happened on the last couple of reps on the last set. My training facility refused to turn the fans on today until it reached 28 deg. This was very annoying when trying to squat for sets. Marv. |

Gender: | Thursday 6th december PR day Squat 152.5kg 1x3 Bench 120kg 1x2 Deadlift 190kg Made it Half way Chins 20kg 3x5 hanging leg raises Calve raise 410lbs I made 1 more rep on squats. Bench has stalled. I didnt make the deadlift. Press has stalled. Rows would need to drop down a couple of kgs and be done for more reps to keep proper technique. It is possible I could make another rep on volume squat day. I could try and add 2.5kg to volume bench and go for a 3x2. However this run seems to be at an end. I have been on this program for about 19 or 20 weeks. Any advice Eric, or anyone else. Marv. |

Gender: | Replace Max Effort work with Speed work on PR days?????? Might help push along the volume days which should lead to new Rms when you go back to ME stuff. I think Rip advises this In PP. Last edited by HIThopper; 12-07-2007 at 01:21 AM. |
