Yep, adding those would be perfect. thanks.

sickinkentucky · 2012-05-25T09:14:32.214844+00:00

Picked one of these up tonight. Hell yes.

get some straps and go to town. A tired grip is no excuse for small girly traps.

I do my deadlift workout (working up to doubles or triples around 450 or so) then do rack pulls with about 500or so, then shrug the shit out of 500+ I raise the weight and lower the ROM. Works like a champ.

Lift heavy things, dont eat above maintenance levels.

Buy the SS book. Do SS.

You can keep running.

Edit: thanks for the downvotes, how about some criticism instead? If I failed on etiquette, let me know.

Quit bitching about downvotes.

Insamity · 2012-05-25T08:47:16.159883+00:00

Ive toyed around with them some, but nothing serious. Is there a difference other than it changing the ROM (more like a deficit DL)?

It's on there. I added both that shop and the only other one to it the day I saw the post =)

xtc46 · 2012-05-25T07:37:01.137597+00:00

It will actually be my first as well. Hopefully it will be awesome.

Stopped by my local B&M tonight to pick up some...supplies for the long weekend. Some friends and I are going camping and it is going to be the first break I have had from work in a while, so I am looking forward to it.

Picked up another Acid, a Natural, an Undercrown, a NUB, a Viaje FOAB, and a couple others for friends. They had a boat load of Liga Privada 9s and t52s but they just weren't in the budget this week. Soon they will be mine.

While there I also got some AMAZING news. My local B&M is opening a lounge! To put this in perspective, there are no other lounges that I am aware of in my city. They gave me a sneak peak and I AM EXCITED. They said it should be opening in the next couple of weeks and I promised that if nothing else, they would have at least one customer there! Words don't explain how excited I am for this.

Blindly believe? Nope, not at all. Take into consideration, sure. But that is my point, if 500 people said the exact same thing, it means less than 10 who said something different and actually talked about what they experienced. Those unique experiences is what allows you to decide if the program is for you, not the "yea it works" because you can't relate to someone who said nothing of detail.

Macanudo 1997 Vintage Maduro. Easily in my top 5 favorite cigars.

Hey Bro,

Can you link me to the contest where they judge form? I only found these lame ass bro-tastic sites where what mattered was how big you were and how much you lifted.

threewhitelights · 2012-05-25T03:13:36.379186+00:00

The real meter of success is a pull up, do you think he will achieve such a high level of fittit epicness?

DVDVRN · 2012-05-25T02:57:24.770832+00:00

Man, you can come to my BBQs any time.

xtc46 · 2012-05-25T02:24:54.645104+00:00

I agree, but how do you fix that? I can only recall a few posts talking about failing at something. Failing teaches you A LOT.

LankosaurousRex · 2012-05-25T02:22:38.653844+00:00

I don't do any special diets or anything like that.

To him they aren't special. Like when looking at fat people with "friends who eat whatever they want" their habits are just different. Perhaps he just naturally eats properly and doesn't need to focus on it.

it no longer becomes strength training but more about 60%-80% dubs/trips for technique and perfecting everything

Considering you are talking about highly technical lifts, that seems pretty relevant.

after a few years would I have comparable strength?

IMO, hard work and consistency separate the average from the very good. Genetics/natural talent separate the great from the good. So comparable? Yea. as good or better? Maybe not.

Most true greats in sports have both a natural gift and the drive to be the best with that gift. If you don't have both, you won't be the best. You can be pretty good with either of them though.

xtc46 · 2012-05-25T02:06:51.676555+00:00

I think we had a training Tuesday regarding what didn't work for people where a lot of this was discussed. I've never been opposed to people asking why stuff didn't work.

xtc46 · 2012-05-25T02:02:48.844364+00:00

I address most of what you just mentioned in my other comments.

What if they struggled halfway through, but changed some little thing and had success that brought them from below average gains to average.

Then that would make it a unique experience... as long as the included what they changed and all that stuff, there is no problem.

If you want more information about how they did what they did, ask.

That makes no sense at all. If a person is sharing their experience they should share their experience. This is as stupid as people who post things like "would anyone be interested in me sharing this excel sheet i made?" If you want to share, share up front, if you don't, don't.

I hate ducks because they are similar to geese and geese can SUCK^{MY^DICK}

MattyBlayze · 2012-05-25T01:26:31.761333+00:00

Sounds amazing so far man. JD sounds like a pretty standup guy based on his posts here and running cool events like that.
