Following up on my earlier post:

I don't like metal for anything else, but for pysching myself up, nothing comes close.

I cannot film from a 3/4 angle, that column is in the way.

Word, so it goes.

Um, the whole time?

Would help to have a 3/4 angle (can't really see how stable your knees are there). They look fine from that angle, though. On the last one you started to shoot your hips before your chest, but only a little bit. Just think about driving your chest up.

Not parallel, if you're into that kind of thing.

aight cool, sorry to dble up the info xD

No worries, man. For what it's worth, I prefer a lacrosse ball to a golf ball. Smooth rolling over the floor > bumpy rolling over the floor. But that's just personal preference.

Live by the summer or... ::)

good point.. heh

that trainer he has, probably has made him slower, less powerful, and overall worse athletically.. i can't imagine that he's gained any power, speed, or cutting ability.

Yeah but she's so hot. That probably makes up for a lot when he tests himself.

Thanks adarq. On reflecting this morning, I think I was probably a bit too hard on myself. Work was stressful yesterday and I was there late and I should have been more patient with stuff. All I really had yesterday were trap bar and bench. So I should have stuck with that and saved the other stuff for Wednesday. Hip is just tweaked: still feeling it this morning but it was loosening up and feeling better with each step on the walk to work. So that's good.

And hey, 370 is pretty nice considering I was a full-on gimp two months ago.  :)

Testing today after work:

The good:

trap bar DL 370

The bad:

everything else. Among other things:

bench 235 -- fuck that noise that is pathetic
fucked my hip up doing sprints and it wasn't even over a measured distance, just one I can go back to later (marked on sidewalk)
couldn't jump cause no mat and forgot camera

In other words, other than the DL, which was okay, EPIC MOTHERFUCKING FAIL.

How's that for depressing, zgin? I fucking suck.
