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

[bleed05]

Back day was today for me, so I decided to hit some rack pulls instead of pulling from the floor. Forgot how well they hit my back, gotta add them to the rotation.

Down 15 since May too, we in the fight.

My gym blocked the deadlift station so I’m stuck doing stupid rack pulls smh

Tried 345. Got folded.

are you tall or is that rack short
u look like you're less than a foot away from the top

 

[mplsdunk]

hit 6x10 rack pulls at 225 today with push/pull.

Tired of all this “rack pull this, rack pull that” we’ll see how fried my back is later.

Short rack. Basement ceiling is short.
I'm 5'4". Plus angle of camera

BranchLifestyle if you tried 345 fresh you’d have it. there was no struggle there. great work man!

 

[mplsdunk]

Agreed.

Edit, you got a nice basement bro. Mine is a 101 year old dungeon.

Just bought 2 active stretching sessions from Groupon. This should be interesting.

an active stretching session is the opposite of interesting lol

Should I be expecting the same experience as a deep tissue massage? Or all pain

Those clitoris gloves?

 

[kingjay718]

haven had meat in a few months and the only dairy i do is ice cream on the weekens and ive lost weight. joints dont ache as much. more energy.

Man I miss squatting and deadlifting heavy, but with playing ball 4x a week it doesn't make sense and is detrimental.

I remember in my earlier days of lifting I could get up to 105ish 5x5 ATG. Weighing only 60kg I felt pretty strong. Managed to start 5x5 again and go up to 90kg with proper form etc.

Definitely worth dropping the ego, work on your form. I see a lot of cats in the gym with incorrect form, lifting massive amounts of plates.. to top it off they yell at the top of the rep like they're damn Sharapova lol.

Does anyone else train for a specific sport i.e. basketball or purely for body building?

 

[mplsdunk]

Nah, I just like lifting because I used to treat my body like a dumpster now I don’t.

 

[spacedoodoo]

Was able to get a lot of volume on squats for today’s hyper leg day

135 for 20, 185 for 15, 205 for 12, 225 for 10 and 245 for 8.

Thanks for the workout ideas fellas

 

[mplsdunk]

You’re gonna feel that.

I just did a 4x8 225 back squat session myself.

 

[isyouserious]

Tried that 20-15-12-10-8 rep scheme for my accessory lifts today. Had baby weights feeling heavy as hell.

Gonna alternate this and rest-pause method for accessory lifts from now on.
