Just reading ebook 5/3/1 - and its hillarious :D

Some more good quotes are:

1:
Back raises are like very strict good mornings without the politics. Loading this exercise can be somewhat awkward. Holding a 10 pound plate in your hands is one thing, but putting 135 pounds on your back and getting into position is a pain in the ass.

2:
Remember when all the Olympic lifters thought the Bulgarians replaced squats with step-ups? And since they couldn’t think for themselves, they did too? Remember when they realized the joke was on them? I still laugh about that today. In any case, the step-up is a great exercise for your legs and ass. Just don’t be Cheater McCheaterstein and use a box that’s 10” off the ground, push off with your back leg like a donkey, then post on message boards how you did 315x10 with each leg on step-ups. Actually, the worst part of this whole scenario is you posting on message boards.

3:
The dumbbell bench is a great assistance exercise to strengthen the upper body pressing muscles and work each arm independently. It’s also great for the regular barbell bench press. I’m often asked if the dumbbell bench can be used as a core exercise (to replace barbell benching or military), and the answer is no. If you want to know why, you obviously haven’t been lifting weights very long.

4:
I think I’ve been asked 6,000 times what kind of elbow tuck to use when performing the dumbbell bench. Palms facing? Elbows out to increase chest involvement? Something in the middle with just a slight elbow tuck? My first response is, “It’s a goddamn dumbbell bench! Who cares!” My second response is to tell them to take the third option of a slight elbow tuck. If they want to argue with me past this, they’ve got problems.

I can highly recommend the book

"I’m often asked if the dumbbell bench can be used as a core exercise (to replace barbell benching or military), and the answer is no. If you want to know why, you obviously haven’t been lifting weights very long."

Clearly too much of an expert to be bothered explaining.  Sure it has nothing to do with him not being able to provide a decent answer.

So why is bb bench so much better than db bench?

He's a powerlifter not a bodybuilder - Wasn't aware that I have to point out the obvious to you mate

This explains why he sounds so obese.  And at the risk of stating the obvious: "Getbig Bodybuilding, Figure and Fitness Forums."  ;)

And at the risk of stating the obvious he isn't obese - thats the whole point of him starting the 5/3/1 program.
And this fits as good into the gossip then any talk about sweet lolis ;D

I think I'm still yet to see someone do a controlled back raise with 135 pounds...atleast in the 90 degree bench, not on that pussy 45 degree one.

I saw some pic of Wendler with ripped abs. You wouldn't think he was as lean as he is looking at his bloated/fat face.  :D

I think I can do it for a few reps (bar on neck). Controlled means what? Pause at the top?

I don't know. Don't really know any drug using competitive powerlifters. In Sweden there's only the IPF it's very clean and if someone were to take drugs they wouldn't talk about it.

I know Billy Mimnaugh is very open. He's posted here before. He likes to do 100 tablets of dbol a day the last week before meets.  :D

Sure, it's only for a week like he says.:D

The 500mg/day dbol routine for last week is a classic decades old powerlifting routine. Add some Test suspension daily and you're good to go. :D

Some powerlifters do an animal pain killer that's very toxic to "get their bloat on" before meets. That's a bit more dangerous. :D

Good job. Yeah pause is good. I used to gather momentum from the bottom and with that momentum I got to the top. Then I realised it's more productive if I do it in control and with a hyperextension at the top. And I thought that since in the first post the writer complained about this loading problem I thought that if it's such a hassle people shouldn't complain if they are doing some kind of half assed jerky movement.

I think I read it once. The guy could squat 1,000 lbs but got winded going up a mere staircase, so he changed his philosophy of training. That's food for thought.
