Strength, Power, Reactivity, & Speed Discussion / Re: Barbells And Steroids: Equally Unfair

If you were standing next to me, I swear I would kiss you.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Just because random person A and random person B came in to say "roids are illegal, I worked my butt out to be the best bodybuilder/athlete/powerlifter etc etc etc with barbells, that's the alpha way" and shit like this doesn't make that person GOD that decides what rules there should be applied to YOU. He's just a man like you are, shitting through the same shit hole (thought that would get a better picture of how similar we are).

So why not use roids vs other methods of increasing strength/lowering bodyfat? I see not reason why except health related which, done correctly, shouldn't be that bad. And like you said, same pretty much applies to barbell squats and any other high tension thing done on your body.

You can also do standing ab wheel rollouts on an inclined surface if you can find any. That will be easier. And once you get good at them it will be easier to do them on a normal surface.

Is a barbell rollout harder than an ab wheel rollout? I only tried the ab wheel rollout.

Can you do hanging straight leg raises without your back supported? Or does your butt go back when you do them?

Well it is, but there's no upperbody work. Remember, volume is going to be extremely low with the squats and deadlifts, just two sets stopping way before failure.

Well yeah that shifts things a bit more towards the muscle side of jumping and away from the tendon side of jumping BUT STILL - to be able to stabilize, jump, land, stabilize, jump etc is amazing.

I swear I thought you were going to jump after the first step you took... it really looked like a drop into a jump your first left leg step you did haha.

What's going on with your SI? What did you feel?

Sucks but in a way, might be a blessing in disguise. If your a bit overtrained or fatigued, taking a little break from all this you might rebound with a :personal-record: really soon.

Strength, Power, Reactivity, & Speed Discussion / Lance's method every day
« on: June 27, 2011, 10:08:39 am »
I was wondering if I use Lance's method every day... stopping when the rep I'm doing is significantly lower than the previous one, if it's too much or if it's OK.

I plan on using two sets and do this every day (morning):

Low volumes of snatch/clean (3x3)

Lance method, 2 sets with 45s rest in between them:

Squat + Overhead Press + Chinups (Monday - Wednesday - Friday)
Deadlift + Bench press + Pullups (Tuesday and Thursday)

Core work/stretch

It should not be too long of a workout and not too draining since I stop as soon as I rep slower/more difficult. Rep range will be 5-8.

I plan to do this in conjunction with Joel Smith's program, with Joel's Program happening in the evening.
