chewybaws Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 (found a way to squat.. Found two boxes that is just the right hight for me to under the bar and squat it from a dead stop.. The first rep is hard as fuck, but it's better than not doing squats at all I'll stay at the current weight until i find a new gym) Shit, starting from a dead stop. Hardcore Before I got my rack, I had the bar sitting on top of 2 chairs....I couldn't budge it. Had to clean/press it to get it on my shoulders (which was harder than the actual squats ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xCx Posted June 30, 2009 Author Share Posted June 30, 2009 (edited) So, I've been taking some time off from my old gym.. The manager there just kept pissing me off and nagging me about how squatting free weights wasn't allowed, so for the sake of not arguing or punching the guy I joined a new gym. The new gym is pretty cool. It's got everything i need. Also, i met another vegan guy there, which is pretty rare here in Denmark, haha. So right now I'm really motivated and ready to hit the weights hard! I decided to stay at my current weights for my first workout at the new gym. Had to get a feel of the place and get comfortable with the new equipment. Monday (B) 29/6-09 SquatWarm up sets: 5x20kg - 5x40kg - 5x60kg - 5x80kg - 3x90kg - 2x100kg3x5 113kg OH pressWarm up sets: 5x20kg - 5x30kg - 5x40kg - 3x50kg3x5 63kg OHPs were really hard today. Gonna stay at this weight till they go up more smoothly Power cleans3x5 70kg The new place has bumper plates, so i got to throw the bar to the ground instead of catching it on my thighs, which was quite pleasing Chin-ups3x6 Weighted Sit-ups3x10 (25kg) Edited July 3, 2009 by xCx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you notice me slacking, please do yell and tell me to get my ass moving OHPs are so freaking hard! Some say that deadlifts are hard, but seriously! heavy OHPs get my head so red i sometimes wonder if it might explode, haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xCx Posted July 2, 2009 Author Share Posted July 2, 2009 Thursday (A) - 02/07-09 All of my lifts seem heavier than usual, so I'm still staying at my current weight. I suspect that bar at my old gym might actually not have weighed 20kg. Either that or the lack of consistency this last month might finally have caught up with me, haha. Anyways! I'm just glad that non of my lifts have gone down.

chewybaws Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 Post a video of you doing squats! Maybe you could post it on the Squats topic in the Bodybuilding section and the subject would go back to Squats instead of pubic hair removal. Does your lower back hurt when you're doing them?

Maybe you could post it on the Squats topic in the Bodybuilding section and the subject would go back to Squats instead of pubic hair removal. Does your lower back hurt when you're doing them? I wouldn't really call it a painful sensation, but it's something i shouldn't be feeling that's for sure. I'll try and get some decent footage of my squat next time nice workouts xCx are you noticing results ? Thanks JW SS and SL are both really good programs. I've gotten much stronger and gain quite a lot of mass, so I'm definitely seeing good results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xCx Posted July 12, 2009 Author Share Posted July 12, 2009 Sunday 12/07-09 Sick and tired of having to deal with my lower back I figured I'd try and change things up a bit. I know I should keep at it and try to correct whatever is making my lower back dodgy, but I don't have anyone to turn to for advice or coaching. I'm gonna try and get a vid of my squat, and hopefully some of the wiser learned squatters can give me some pointers to what might be wrong. Until then I'm just gonna have fun and try out the oly squat Oly SquatWarm up sets: 5x20kg - 5x40kg - 5x50kg - 5x60kg - 3x70kg - 1x803x5 90kg - This was ridiculously hard!! I never i mind my would have thought oly squats would be this tough and I damn near didn't get out of the hole on the last rep, so I might drop the weight a bit more. I'm not 100% sure I'm doing it right, in fact I might be doing some weird Frankenstein PL/oly hybrid squat, but non the less I was having fun learning this style.

xCx Posted July 22, 2009 Author Share Posted July 22, 2009 A little training update from Cavallino. I've managed to find a gym here, but it's pretty crappy though. There are no racks, only a smithmachine, so I bastardized the SS routine a bit.
