NO BULLSHIT TRAINING THREAD..........JUST TRAINING !

[webstar]

Lol @ hiding your gut in the dark with the setting sun behind you. Well done, Brian.

lol wearing a black shirt as well!

Hide the gut

Smart!

I’m sure of it 405 he couldn’t even load the bar let alone roll it

[Hulkotron]

Does bhanks have 405 lbs to put on the bar?

[dj181]

By holding the bar when you deadlift, you are activating and using all of the shoulder girdle as you lift and when you reach peak contraction and you should be holding a few hundred pounds more than you can press. Not to mention the strength gains in the back and core to help support the weight overhead. Tons of reasons to deadlift when it comes to strength related training. Also cleans will boost your shoulder strength as well.

power cleans are an awesome exercise

good for athletism as they make you more explosive and make you jump higher and can increase punching power

i think i'll do them once this fucking injury finally seals

[bhank]

how do you figure?

i do them standing

my quad injury came back from those deads i did last week

the fucking wound still isn't sealed yet, still slightly open so i can train legs til isn't completley sealed and closed

FUCK!!!

thought gear healed injuries faster

This guy has open wounds trying to go to a sex club that is why that shit is nasty as nasty can be

[dj181]

Just did the weighted pullups and got 4 reps with 25 pounds round my waist not too bad for a Start

Gonna take a 10 minutes break and then do some hang cleans

Can't use my legs yet don't want to reopen this goddamn wound

[dj181]

On the hang cleans I did 135 for a triple and 115 for 8

Ima gonna keep this lift in the 3-6 rep range

Hey turdfin do I look like this lead singer?

He's got inferior brown eyes and I got superior blue ones

The interplay between him and the bearded dude is cool af

You can be anything you want boy

You actually do DJ, can you sing like him??

[wes]

That's debatable as well - does Jeff train to failure all the time?  Krank?  Wes?  SC?

Does some magic chemical get released at failure, as opposed to one rep before?

I train hard but I almost always keep a little gas in the tank.

If I`m shooting for 10 reps I make it tough, but if I went ballistic I could probably squeeze out 2 more reps which I sometimes do,but more than often I don`t do this.

I used to over train in a huge way,leaving a bit in the tank is a good thing as long as you are still training hard.....just my opinion.

Also  resting less between sets makes you use less weight but is a really hard way to train..........also, and most importantly,I go by how I feel at any given workout.

If you trained to complete failure all the time you would soon lose interest in your training due to a  lack of recovery......you only progress when you eat and rest.

195x6
215x4
235x3
255x2

I like high-rep deadlifts, I feel it in my lats (nh) a lot more than lower reps.

[dj181]

Came back for a second delt session and I was weak as fuck

Behind the neck press 90 for 5 fucking reps to failure

Then did face pulls and lost strength too

Finished off with dB lateral and lost strength

Gonna go to hitting each muscle every 72 hrs

Day 1 pec and Tri

Day 2 delts

Day 3 back and bi

And.... I LOST 8 FUCKING POUNDS IN 2 GODDAMN DAYS

Guess I cut cals too goddamn much

Breakkie 1 liter or milk

Lunch 250 grams chicken breast and a little bit brown rice

Din-din 250 grams chicken breast

Just not good enough to compete in the over 65 division you need to wait 2 years for the less competitive over 70 division lol

Why did you train delts  two times in one day?

WTF

Because he doesn't know how to train and won't listen to any advise from the long time lifters here.


...He's the human version of a dog that tries to learn but then sees a squirrel...

He could always  listen to "Vigorous Steve" !!  LOL 

DJ,once you hit a bodypart, unless you train with pink dumbells, it`s just plain fucking dumb to hit it again on the same day,or even the next day.

You only  grow at rest........you should know this dude......if you have too much time on your hands get a fucking job dude........stop being a leech.

You are  grossly overtraining and undereating and switching drug compounds as often as I change my underwear....... but whatever,do your thing...........you`d make far better gains if you didn`t do YOUR thing but as I said.....whatever!!

[wes]

Just not good enough to compete in the over 65 division you need to wait 2 years for the less competitive over 70 division lol

There is no Over 65 division you loser.

It`s either Over 60 or Over 70.....why would I give some guys  a 9 year time advantage,I`ll be 69 this June........those Over 60  guys would smoke your ass,trust me.

This shit doesn`t get easier as you get older,if you live long enough and still train "lift",you`ll find that out.

Besides,you entered a class deceptively with no one else even in it.....wearing lead boots......and you have the balls to cry about me waiting a year and a half to compete  in the correct division?

I send in the entry form like anyone else does, not knowing if there is 50 guys or one guy in my class.......unlike you I don`t call the contest promoter and ask how many guys are in my class.......you fucking putz!

Go eat some candy coated cat shit fuckface!

Your 'best shape' isn't about being the skinniest or leanest version of yourself—it's about being your healthiest.

It's about building a healthy relationship with food, feeling confident in your skin, and finding a training routine that's sustainable and enjoyable.

Your 'best shape' isn't a static destination—it's a dynamic journey that evolves with the seasons of life.

Sometimes you're pushing hard towards a goal, and other times you're simply maintaining. And guess what? That's perfectly okay.

You don't need extreme diets or gimmicks to achieve your 'best shape'.
Sustainable progress comes from consistent, balanced habits—not quick fixes or fads.

Your 'best shape' is about more than just physical appearance—it's about prioritizing your overall health and happiness.

Because a six-pack doesn't mean much if you're miserable on the inside.

Comparing yourself to others or chasing your past self isn't the path to your 'best shape'.

Instead, focus on being the best version of YOU in this moment, in this season of life.

Ultimately, defining your 'best shape' means aligning with your values, embracing your journey, and finding what works for YOU.
