STAY/GET BACK IN SHAPE VOL 3.0 -- A New Niketalk = A New Thread

[ahat]

Did chest and tris today. Week 5 of bench program was ok nothing special. Still havent gotten to what i normally bench. Added incline barbell bench, first time doing it since highschool. Managed to get 225x3 on last rep. Can def hit 5reps if i didnt do flat bench right before.

Seen a guy fall with 225 on his back for that exact reason. :x

I like to rack it even a little bit lower than I need to just because it feels better.

One of the most common and stupid things I see at the gym are people squatting from too high of a rack position.

You should have to do a calf raise to get the bar off the rack, and it's even more dangerous when you have to calf raise it back in. Just saw a guy nearly kill himself from not being able to rerack the weight. SMH.

talk to em

Bar rack should be adjusted to your  top collar bone.

5 weeks out. Cut will be done by first week of November. Then it's time to put on lean muscle.

Got a vein on my chest now. More appearing.

It's just too much muscle. I need to smoke crack or something SMFH (Kali muscle said that in some video, I was rolling...But f him tho)

I'm back on jet fuel after a 3 week break off it lost 9 pounds already in the span of 2-3 days.....


Went on a mini vacay in Dallas beer is not good for lean gains bruh

Heres the video. Idk whats up with the quality. My first video ever uploaded to YT. Taken on my boys 7 plus. Any tips appreciated.

Went to a local Crossfit gym. Got a real good vibe. Seems expensive.

Anybody have any idea what I should be paying? They had a 3-day/wk. membership and an unlimited. Going Saturday for a free "beginners" workout day to see how I like it.

 

[JPS]

For real. If you order anything other than a black inzer, the wait time is on you

u clearly can't read. i didn't order anything. it was a gift.

 

[JPS]

I've seen anything from 180-225 for a general membership.

225 is probably too much unless the gym is big and spacious like a franchise gym. If the trainers are new than 225 is also too much.

Cost is based on location and demand.

I pay $120 a month for unlimited access.

I know people who learn the movements, they just pay for open gym which usually is half the price. Then they just find a program and do the wod posted.
