Love the consistency in here mate. How do you perform your pistol squats?

[bill1987]

Thanks MF! Always impressed with your workouts! And the way I do them is by standing up on one leg and rolling onto my back and then roll onto one leg and get back up if that makes sense.

Do you normally get much soreness from your workouts nowadays or are you pretty accustomed to all of the training? Hope you have a great weekend, you have much planned?

[bill1987]

Yeah still do now and again, try to mix up my workouts at least a little bit each week(but this is something I should do more of...). Right now I'm just working on leaning out so I have been getting more cardio in and still lifting. And nothing too exciting but me and a few friends are going to get some petitions for an initiative here in Washington state so GMO foods will be labeled. What about you? And any advice on different ways to switch up workouts?

What about you? And any advice on different ways to switch up workouts?

Yeah, I still get a bit of soreness every now and then. Just had a full 3 lift meet on Saturday, it's Monday night now and I can feel it in my hams at the moment. Should be okay by tomorrow though.

 

How to swicth things up, hmmmm. Well often I find the best way is just to be instinctive. By that I mean to not have a set programme for a few weeks dictating what you are going to be training. Instead let your head and body tell you what you are going to train next. Try it and see what you think, it's quite refreshing and your body will probably appreciate both the change of pace and the change of exercises

I also found that supersetting any excercise with the corresponding calisthentic movement for that muscle, makes you rock solid. Do you have any other tips for back and Bis. BTW I also change up my spilt routine each week, e.g Week 1 Back/bi's week2 Back/tri's week 3 Back/chest etc. Flex mag has alot of useful tips, for serious results.

[Mini Forklift]

Good training as usual, might throw in some Russian twists on my next session. Thanks for the reminder!

 

Did you get up to anything exciting this weekend?

[Mini Forklift]

Do you use any supplements at all, or do you prefer to get everything you need through the foods you eat? Any idea what your macros look like?

@Mf did a lil hike(4.5 miles) and found some snow, nothing to0 exciting besides that, you? And try to get as much as I can from fruits and vegetables but I do take glucosamine and have taken creatine when I was trying to bulk and glutamine when I can afford it. Do you take any?
