Shoggoth Posted February 21, 2014 Author Share Posted February 21, 2014 February 20, 2014 Before Supper Today felt good. I also tried a belt for a set; ouch. I'll leave that bugger off. The pulls felt good but I still need to be setting my back better. I was also going to do some swings with the Plateau Buster but figured I'd leave some in the tank for armwrestling tomorrow. Deadlift 135 x 4 x 3r 225 x 3 315 x 2 365 x 1 415 x 4 x 4r 470 x 2 525 x 2 415 x 8 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shoggoth Posted February 25, 2014 Author Share Posted February 25, 2014 February 24, 2014 Before Supper Well I was pretty excited to do today's workout and felt super confident on getting at least one or two sets of doubles with 485# for more PR's. Everything was going good until I did a misload at 485. I accidentally put on 5 plates and remembered that was 495. I ended up only stripping the one sides 45 before throwing on the 35# from 455. Got revved up. Got under the bar. Went to pop it out of the hooks and it felt weird. Put it back and tried again. Nope. Stepped out of the rack and saw the problem. Fixed the loading and went to do my set. As soon as it was unracked I felt the pain. Went and laid on my inversion table for 20 minutes and now am laying on the couch waiting for Gail to grab a ice pack. Looks like nothing heavy for the rest of the week at least dammit!! Squat 45 x 4 x 3r 135 x 3 225 x 2 315 x 1 365 x 1 405 x 1 455 x 1 Bunch of frigging bugger ups and pain!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shoggoth Posted February 28, 2014 Author Share Posted February 28, 2014 February 28, 2014 Noon Back is still a bit off so I did my regular pull weights and reps for the week but did them off of the 4" blocks. Lets me keep my back tight while still putting the weight in my hands. Next week is my scheduled no pulls then I'll repeat this workout the week after but from the floor. 4" Conventional Deads 135 x 2 x 3r 225 x 2 315 x 2 365 x 1 425 x 4 x 4r 480 x 2 535 x 2 425 x 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shoggoth Posted March 2, 2014 Author Share Posted March 2, 2014 March 2, 2014 Noonish Today felt good other than overheating from this head cold. Dips are feeling a lot more stable and my wrist is getting better. I was going to do some dumbbell incline presses as well but my side is still too buggered up to allow me to flip the DB's into a clean on the bench. Another note I'd like to make is that nothing has ever hit my lats as hard or as directly as these meadows rows. They get super pumped. The DB benching were done with 3-4 second negatives to at least give a bit of work. The hammer curls were very strict and with no English so I'm pretty happy with them. Doing standing ones I'm probably able to do low reps with 80# or so easily. 1a) Dip BW (275#) x 3 +18# x 3 +36# x 3 x 5r 1b) Meadows Row +25# x 5 +50# x 8 +75# x 3 x 15r 2a) Seated Hammer Curl 65# x 3 x 5r 2b) DB Bench Press 3-4 second negs 65# x 3 x 10r 3) M Handle w/FGX 50# x 3 x AMRAP Iso's - Supinations Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Durrs Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 I know you know what you're doing but watch out for those meadows rows they gave me tennis elbow that took months to recover from and I'm still not 100%. I was using a suicide grip so I would recommend gripping it like the rolling thunder, I'm not sure what you do or like but just a word of advice to not get the same nagging injury I got. Keep it up brotha! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep it up brotha! Thanks man. I'm gripping the bar rather than the sleeve so I shouldn't get hit with that. I tend to get hit more on the inner elbow from bending and arm wrestling.

Shoggoth Posted March 3, 2014 Author Share Posted March 3, 2014 I did some more looking up last night and I guess Meadows Rows are only with the fulcrum to the side where I do them with it behind me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Durrs Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 I did some more looking up last night and I guess Meadows Rows are only with the fulcrum to the side where I do them with it behind me. Yeah when I got hurt I was doing them holding the bar on the sleeve with a suicide grip and my thumb on the very end of the bar and I was curling my wrist to keep the bar from falling out. I remember my forearms were sore for about 4-5 days after a solid workout with that exercise though, so if you can do them without getting hurt I think they could do wonders for the grip.
