**bigDman** · 04-03-2006, 03:35 PM

yea haha

Yesterday I tried my shirt out but couldn't get to a good bench or a spotter I trusted spotting me with higher weights so I worked light. My bench the supports for the bar are right were you hands should be so I had to take a close grip. I did 45x19 85x5 135x5 185x1 all raw then put on my shirt and did 185x3 for 2 sets never touched and then did 225x3 for 3 sets and didn’t touch but I got real close

I figured that was not much of a workout so I did an upper body workout today
Dynamic Effort Upper body

Speed Bench 95x3 135x3 for 8 sets
Close grip Bench 185x3 for 3 sets PR
Bent Row 135x6 185x6 for 2 sets PR
Side rises 25x9 PR
Front rises 25x10 PR

workout went great. Love the PR's

Overall: A

Dynamic Effort Lower

Speed Squats 185x2 for 3 sets 205x2 for 3 sets PR
Speed Deads 255x1 for 12 sets
Pull throughs 90x8
Power cleans 165x3 for 3 sets
Shrugs 245x10
Hip flexor work

This workout was pretty good
the speed on the squats and deads was good
the pull throughs were okay i dont really like them too much
Power cleans went well i still need to fix my form
Shrugs were nice but i did them with a trap bar and wasnt use to the bar
The hip flexor work was good

Nice vid. I wasn't paying attention to form so I can't comment; I was just looking at each rep and the weight. :boink:

**bigDman** · 04-14-2006, 02:12 AM

bigDman's offical my form sucks day

I took this workout to work on my form

i think it helped alot. i did a whole bunch of sets and reps on both deadlift and box squats. The deadlifts felt good, but i need to work on my flexibility and the box squats felt acward. I didnt feel as powerful. Im guessing that will change with practice

i got a vid of some of the workout coming later

~~2Ripped4U~~ · 04-14-2006, 02:14 AM

Sweet, good deal. BigD, keep this is mind bro: Form>Weight

Okay my first workout went good. My calve flexibility and lack of muscular endurance were limiting on many poses. I will continue to work on it. I need to work on staying relaxed and staying in the pose longer. The whole thing took about 15 min 20 seconds
