So I basically took a year off the gym due to laziness/career. I now have my life back to the balance I need to be able to lift and also be active on the forums again. I have pretty chronic lower back issues (no lumbar/couple degenerative discs) and try to keep all of my squatting and deadlifting in the higher rep ranges, which has kept me pretty healthy and also I notice lots of growth that way...
Used to post over at MMI all the time, ran several logs there which was super fun. SOOOOO good to see all the same faces over here! Last edited by exmgtoo; 07-18-2011 at 03:46 PM. |

So just to kind of get things out there for you all to see goal-wise....
By the end of 2011 I would like to be at all these: Bench: 500 Seated OHP: 315x10 Deadlift: 405x10 Squat: 405x10 I have always been a very strong presser for my weight and muscularity my 1 rep PR on the bench is around 435 not even really using the things necessary to keep a strong bench such as leg drive/tight upper back/lat explosion. So I feel I could MAYBE hit 500 by the end of the year throwing those things in....bah who knows, but why set pussy goals?! I will never go low reps with anything with regards to my lower back for said reasons I have listed earlier in my log. |
