greater depth probably helping force you keep your legs externally rotated, too, which will help you move more weight, safer, in the long term.

this makes me think of an amateurish porn clip called "ruslan and ludmila." look it up and thank me later, the girl's tits are awe-inspiring.

dude the last BS vid you posted looked like best yet. it's like t0ddday said a few pages ago in this thread: before it just looked like you hadn't practiced it much. lots more confidence evident now.

« on: March 20, 2013, 10:34:27 am »NYC? nice. whatd u do?
hung out with friends, drank a bunch, went to the brooklyn museum and dia:beacon, shopped for vintage clothes/books/misc., relaxed.
It's been my lifetime fantasy to get to New York at some point
good fantasy, new york is awesome. i've been going a couple of times a year, at least, since birth. my mom's family is mostly in the city or the metro area (dutchess county and fairfield county, ct). would love to live there at some point but it'd very likely require a career change. not something i'm against, just not happening imminently.
I actually thought you lived in NYC, LBSS.
nope, i live in washington, DC.

was on vacation in NYC with gf last several days. it was fantastic, but i got no exercise in other than some mobility/stretching stuff and lots of walking. played it conservative and quick today: she's about to be busting her ass 5.5 days a week so i won't have as much time with her. workouts the rest of the week will be quick. back into the regular swing next week.

keep up the good work, man, seems like you're making good progress and considering how big you are you're in pretty damn good shape. be careful about some of those crossfit workouts, though. sumo dl high pulls are a terrific way to fuck up your shoulders.

Strength, Power, Reactivity, & Speed Discussion / Re: attempting to max out at least once a week
« on: March 15, 2013, 11:49:12 am »
a max set is a working set. not sure who you're saying is against working up to a 1RM. i'm doing that right now every workout and loving it. kf does it almost every single day. but there's a difference between trying to hit absolute PR's every day, which is a huge drain on CNS, and working up to a max that you can handle.
