I believe Dorian did squat on a smith machine

.

You can find early shots of power rack squats too. He gradually dropped things out, if he found them painful. Squats annoyed one of his hips, so he added in other stuff. He Romanian deadlifted, but I don't think I ever saw conventional or sumo from him.

Any truth to the rumor that Heck is Josh in disguise?

[keanu]

So.... you're saying that he never had the makings of a varsity athlete..? 



(Twice this week I've used that - go figure)

  He practiced with the team but he was never good enough to wrestle a match.

He seemed afraid of back injuries from heavy deads. IIRC he did deads with just 200kg which is pathetic when you row almost the same. But what does it matter with the back he had! His pics still amazes, and he now says he would have trained even less when thinking back.

His hip was busted so he couldn't squat conventionally. In that pic you see how you get extra depth by stepping in front just a bit further, you can't do that with free weight.

Deadlifts and squats feel great for me and definitely aid in building a powerful looking physique but I do them for the enjoyment, the challenge and the mental/spiritual benefits first.

LOL you’re so spiritual and righteous.

There are a lot of folks who push for the smith machine pump style for training quads and such.

I avoid the machine since I literally separated my should using it for bench in 90s.

Some like Charles Poliquin said the smith machine was dangerous because it forced you into an unnatural movement pattern

Thanks.

For years, I never touched one because of that. Tate made me rethink it. I remember it was said Poliquin lost some respect at Westside because he didn't work in, and train when offered. That was a Louie test, he offered to let you train if you visited, if you skipped out, and only asked questions, it dropped his estimation of you.

Dorian didnt squat or deadlift, Ronnie did

Take a look how things panned out for both of them and decide how you want your future to look

An incredibly shitty way of making your case for leg press.  I bet if Ronnie had been 'bladed' he wouldn't have all the problem he has now, right?

I have more people who work out come into my office with back issues from smith squats than free weight.

At the time, I had read that bench to the base of the neck would work upper chest.

So had two plates a side and was doing that on the smith, elbows flared, all wrong, and heard it just click.

Hurt like fuck, but I had no money to go get it looked at, so, to compound the retardation, a chiropractor at my gym said he would look at me.

He deduced I had a pec tear, and sold me $90 worth of calcium supplements to help.

That, combined with six months of no lifting, did the trick.

you think Ronnie squatting and deadlifting 800lbs had nothing to do with the way he has ended up?

Baby out with the bath water statement.

Totally disregarding the drugs and probably was like most lifters and didn't do adjunct things necessary to keep things healthy.  In addition I would also go so far as to say that he had the mentality (like most) that when something was wrong, it "didn't hurt that bad" to address it.

[Van_Bilderass]

I think a lot of powerlifters have had the mentality that if you don't train because something hurts you'll never train. My former training partner, the hardest trsiner I ever saw, had eaten the NSAID diklpfenak for 15 years straight. Also daily codeine/apap tablets were essential; he had so much I probably ate a couple of thousands of them myself. His lab values for kidneys and liver were perfect though. His one shoulder had hurt for many years but suddenly the pain stopped, when the cartilage was all worn down. He hoped the same would happen with his other hurting shoulder. Unfortunately he was finally cut down when his foot broke and collapsed during a set of squats, out of all things the foot breaks! After surgeries one leg is 2 inches shorter and the ankle doesn't move at all. So he stopped training alltogether. Didn't stop the painkillers though, said his doc wrote an Rx for 3600 codeine pills and wrote in his journal, "I have a hard time saying no to him." There was talk of moving him to the less toxic Oxy tabs but I don't know what happened with that. Oxys are killers when overdosed and obviously like using heroin but they don't contain the toxic paracetamol.

The fucker had training drive like you wouldn't believe, shame he stopped, we had epic workouts.

Thanks.

Please remove this post, I was not complimenting you.
I was being sarcastic.

I don’t want to like a post by you thank I disliked to be followed with a post that is funny.

Good squat video by the way, I thought you were bald. Have you grown out your hair?

[Dave D]

I have more people who work out come into my office with back issues from smith squats than free weight.

Krank is it people who are smith machine squatting the same weight they free squat? Do you think it’s a partially a result of trying to smith squat to heavy?

I knew you were being a douchebag but I said thanks anyway.

Thanks very much for the compliments on my squat video but you are right I am bald now, actually I could grow it back minus a little recession since then but I enjoy buzzing it.

225x18 today no belt, no sleeves, All Heart.

There is an entire website online GetBrian multiple threads 40 pages plus and thousands of views of haters talking shit and spreading lies about little old insignificant me. These soggy old idiots are posting and arguing about my soggy old pics lol.  No one cares. Work Harder

But this one guy Van. Van is a soldier. Van is with me. I am raising an Army one soldier at a time. We are old everything hurts. We don't care. Get under the bar it doesn't matter if it is empty or bending one rep or 20 it is going to hurt. Just get it.
Also don't sell the pec downriver yet. It is structurally improved. There is a new tendon connected. There is stuff happening. It just needs to grow. I have a partial tear in front delt though so giving it a rest for a few weeks.

For fucks sake, this semen-encrusted, glazed donut looking human muscle tear can’t even steal a phrase to disprove some of his retardation…

It’s “Soggy Old Queer” you skinny fat, spermburping, weakling.

Jesus Christ I’m actually embarrassed for this Van Bilderass clown too. He is the drug addict, hypochondriac version of Primemuscle. I thought the bench press challenge was a farce, but now the Legal Eagle thinks 4 rep squats looking like a dog shitting a peach pit at 315 are supposed to be impressive? That’s barely more than his paint chip eating kid can do.

I wasn’t being a douche, you posted something ridiculous and I mocked you.

That aside, based on your posts here you seem like a good dude. Keep up the good work.

Not shaking like a retard and hitting depth. This is 160kg bet you can't do 6 like this with 140 Brian.

Good squatting Ro
Nice high bar ones 👊🏻👍🏻
Is that a recent squat session

[Never1AShow]

Well compared to many of the powerlifting squats which get green lights these days I think it would but I agree those are not ass to grass, I have done deeper with pauses too.

Good lord, those were plenty deep and a looong way from Hankins shit

[chaos]

nice pivot away from deadlifts

Deadlifts are amazing for full body strength. Squats are second, in my opinion.

[chaos]

I think the fucked up 500lb rows he was doing contributed more than the squats and deads.
