  Haha yea badgers are vicious as hell.  Used to have one that made his home in front of one of our deer blinds (not a honey badger, just a badger) that would come out and talk shit to me by snarling and growling every time I went to the blind.  I literally had my rifle tip in his mouth on more than one occasion and couldnt bring myself to pull the trigger since he looked like some kind of pet or something lol.  I finally conceded to call a truce and brought him bacon or ham every time I would go out there and he actually got fairly tame.  He wouldnt growl or snarl anymore and he would politely go back in his hole once he was given the food. 

hahah.. that badger debo'd you for some ham and bacon.. epic.

bench 5x175, 3x185, 3x195 -- had more in me but the fucking spotter just grabbed the bar after three and re-racked it! WTF!

i did that once to someone, I felt so bad..

when you have a less than optimal bench session, why don't you finish with some bench assistance? such as paused db bench/paused bb bench sets, etc?

24 July 2010

-7 Days Vertical Jump Cure routine.
-My usual lower body stretch routine.

Yesterday's dunk session was probably sub-max due to the heat. Today i am perfectly fresh , no soreness , no ankles/shins bugging , nothing like other after-dunking days.

whoa.................... that's a good sign... damn!

so you had 10lbs in each hand or more than that? then you did 400 walking lunges! that would be pretty tiring

do you squat anymore? that's what i think about when it comes to vertical and speed in the weight room...squat  and oly lifts...but i haven't seen a new squatting video on you channel..unless i missed it or something

well i just got back into squatting but i'm not going heavy, and it's more like a quarter-squat jump-squat at the moment.. i don't plan on going heavy anymore.. I go push myself too hard with maximal weights and have gotten some injuries from it.. it's alot safer to push myself with submax weights.. I mean I'd love to work submax (very slow progressive overload) for so long that my max shoots way up, i mean, that has happened as of recent, as a biproduct of those 400 walking lunge sessions + natural ghr's.

so ya i'm going to keep the weights light.

peace man

I know Adam link and a lot of other guys keep telling me to push the weight like it's you max and you will get results

yup that's a great post/blog by him, he's right on the money.

but anyway sometimes i feel that when i do 85% and above on my squat the weight is too heavy to go fast and my form is not good enough either...so i go slow down and as fast as possible up

ya well, you're still pretty young in the training process, so you will get used to heavier weights as you gain more experience.. but regardless, heavy weights don't move fast in general, but as long as you are TRYING to move them fast then you're approaching the rep properly.. if you're doing some single on squat @ 95%, it might take 2-3 seconds to complete the rep, but in your head, you're trying to complete it in one second.. that's the kind of "speed" you're trying to explode through the bar with, maximal rate of motor unit recruitment.

i'll stick to the original plan for abit adarq, dun wanna cut any corners. full blast mang!
will report back if it gets worse tho.

alright well, this routine should be less intense on your back, it's less heavy maximally.. so hopefully you feel fine doing it, if not, you got to tell me.. :)

that 1st pic was high as hell. how high were u? looked like u were way below wrist but that mite be cam distortion. nice tho.

well i was like 3" of wrist over.. i slammed it hard and my whole hand was in the rim coming down.. overall a bad session but i had a few good jumps.

the last tub i had was cookies and cream, mixed with milk it was just super.

i got myself choc this time. already got a tub of vanilla gainer type mix from proteinfactory, i credit it as the biggest factor in my weight gain from 63 to 69kg.

protein powders are a godsend to me, i just cant find enough protein food, as asian diets are generally heavy on rice, and i cant cook to save my life.

that 10RM thing for 20 is insane, dont think i'll be able to do it.

adarq, my back is bugging abit after all those squats. should i try to bring up the back, via deadlifts or otherwise?
i've never done a deadlift set in my life, i mean i tried, but i could never get used to the form...

you are warming up very good right? deadlifts would only bug it more.. add in high rep hypers to get some blood flow into the erector spinae, see how that feels.. but if your back is bugging we need to change something or fix it, it's not good for the back to be bugging.. try icing that area for 10-15 min a few times today, see if that has any effect.
