Thanks Hits. Height is a 45lb plate thickness.

I pm'd you Hits. I don't know what's up either.

The problem with the false grip is

"I've been doing it for years and never had a problem."

It doesn't matter what you say when someone bases it on that.

This is late to get into the false grip thing, lol. The nested replies at GUS are cool. I wonder if Sleazy has the capability of implementing that. I've never seen it at any other forum.

184lbs

Incline Bench
190x2
195x2
190x2

Pullups
BWx5, +35x3+3+3, +25x5+3+3

I had to make it into work earlier than usual today so I didn't have nearly as much time as normal. This took me an hour and it was all the time I had.

Rather than try and speed through my workout and get a decent effort on everything, I decided to go 100% for as much of the workout as possible and go at my usual tempo. I sped it up a bit on the pullups just to get in some more reps. I nailed incline and I got in some good pullups, skipping pushups didn't really concern me so much.

Those are nice Inclines dude, I suck at them, BADLY, I been working on them tho and they getting a little less lame!!

Nice loading on the pullups too, clusters have worked wonders for pullups and chins for me in the past.

Thanks Hops.

I find incline is something you just have to work at, its not my favourite exercise either. I've always thought of it as the bastard child of flat bench and military press :biglaugh:

Clusters a friggin awesome.

I love incline. There is a 10lb difference between my incline & flat bench.

Thursday May 28th

184lbs

OH Squat
105x5, 115x4, 125x3, 135x2

Anderson Front Squat
195x5, 205x4, 215x3, 225x2

Backsquat
255x5, 265x4, 275x3, 285x2

Anderson Half Squat
375x5, 395x4, 415x3, 435x2

Made increases across the board again. OH Squats were rough, I think I had every single stabilizer muscle at 100% for that one, and it was still a bit wobbly. I love when the bar feels like a flag in the wind but you still manage to hang onto the attempt and push through it.

Backsquats felt surprisingly light which I think is a side effect of the Half Squats. Last set of backsquats was a grinder for sure.

Those half squats were ridiculous. Again, the hardest part was unracking the bar and walking out. It was a bit of a grinder on the last set.

182lbs

Sumo Deadlift
325x3
325x3
325x3

Uni RDL w/BB
95x6, 95x6, 95x6

DB Swing
60x10x3

I was out of town last week and I didn't get a chance to workout, which is why I haven't posted anything, in case anyone was wondering...:biglaugh:

I took it rather easy today, pulled some triples for Sumos so I could keep it heavy but still light enough to work on form. As I'm fairly inexperienced with sumo's I won't be getting very aggressive with them for a while. Uni RDLs were very difficult for the first set, I couldn't get a rep without losing balance. The second and third set however were very good, I lost my footing only a few times between both sets. DB Swings were rather light but I was a bit gassed so I just went with it.
