Me too, but I'm old, fat and weak. But then, the only woman I'm lifting with is my wife, so that's a big confidence booster. My workout partner is my wife too. She's not impressed with my lifts. When she watches you get stuck on the squat and walks over to one-hand the bar back on the hooks, it's time for a new workout buddy. Like an 8 year old girl. |

See yourself as winning and assume that posture and attitude. Everything else will fall into place. I'm a big believer in the power of positive thinking. Within reason...I can't positively think a 1000 lb squat. Speaking of squats. This heat blows great big donkey balls. I've been following a 3/2/1 template found on JTS and have loved it. However, I noticed that I stopped doing as much volume/accessories because my work sets were killing me. Dialed my numbers back and I'm not sure I like it. Reps over 3 = cardio. Did 355x6 tonight and could tell my work capacity was suffering. It's amazing how many things I've read by pros, only to have to suffer the same pitfalls in order for it to stick. |

I've been squatting fine low bar. No pain, max is 350ish. I started toying with high bar and something popped in my lower back at 185. My life fucking sucks right now.

Like that one dude says, pull the bar like your ripping the head off a God damned lion. That's how I got my bar MUs, I started closing my eyes and just fucking pull like your fighting for your life. Big difference. With squats though, I suppose you might need to alter the metaphor. Maybe raising a car off a kid or something. |

I'm a simple man. I like pretty, dark-haired women and breakfast food.

But that kicked my ass and made me fight myself mentally. I was able to finish just under 13 mins. But I was slower than both of my training partners. In the last round I lost the mental fight and rested several times where I shouldn't have. I think I got my heart rate up a little too high too early and gassed out too soon. Any of you have success in tracking your heartrate with one of those fitbit thingies? Though even knowing my heartrate, I'm not sure how I can keep it down. Any ideas or tips? I'm really curious about the answer to this. I have been really gassing myself in my circuits for the past few weeks and when I was laying on the floor trying to breathe I was wondering what my heart rate was and how I was going to do a better job of keeping it down. I lost the mental fight today, I just plain gave up with just a few reps left. I found this article on testing your heart rate and how to use it in training. I guess I've got a lot to learn.

If I could sum up what I got from that in 10 words or less, I'd say it's time to get a monitor, find that point where I know I'll get wiped out and keep myself just below that point. Was that 10 words or less? There were some really interesting nuggets in there too. I'm considering getting a tracking monitor, just for kicks. I have my doubts about the ability for it to judge a 'good day', but it's still interesting. Years ago I was doing a lot of cycling and got my resting heart rate into the 40s, I noticed that simple things like standing would cause me to be light headed. After looking into it I found that a healthy heart doesn't respond as quickly to a simple stimulus like standing up so you might be light headed. But it's more prepared for a big stimulus- once it's warmed up. |
