LongTimeVegan Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 I like this video of Ronnie doing lunges... He looks as rocked after this set as he does after squatting 800lbs! Granted he probably squatted 800lbs before doing this... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4EpattQUwyM Not as funny as some of the other stuff out there, but lunges really suck and watching this keep me motivated... -Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zack Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 DROP DAT SHIT! I love it too...watched it about 15 times the last few days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 Those are only half lunges...he should be able to do much more than that. I used to be able to do a few reps of lunges with 185 but couldn't even do a partial squat with 800...I could only get it off the rack and hold it for a few seconds.

It's just fun to watch somebody so huge working with a weight that's not much more than what I work with. Especially when I've got better form. I can knock out 10 reps per leg with 135lbs, or 6 reps per leg with 155lbs. I go down until my back knee is 2" from the ground on each rep. I would think 185lbs would be "light-weight" for you, potter! Didn't you used to squat really heavy? -Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me lunges were all about high reps and squats and dead lifts were always about low reps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 Decades ago I could squat 600lbs... decade = 10 years. Decades = at least 20 years. So you were 4 years old? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me lunges were all about high reps.I'm totally the opposite... When I do BB Lunges I can lift more weight, as opposed to DB Lunges. Is there a reason you let your knees touch the ground? Most of the instructional material I've reviewed recommends "not taking tension off" a muscle when you're doing reps. -Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xveganjoshx Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 Knee touching the ground? That's scary far IMO. I stop with the knees a couple of inches from touching the ground, but still go pretty deep. That is when I do them. I hate them, but I gotta do them to get those legs bigga. They ain't big enough yet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LongTimeVegan Posted January 29, 2008 Author Share Posted January 29, 2008 (edited) I gotta do them to get those legs bigga. They ain't big enough yet! LOL, my lady was massaging my legs today and I actually said that to her... Edited January 29, 2008 by LongTimeVegan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
