Nice workout bro

Nice deadlifts bro, do you scream as you lift the weight up? cos i do i let out a big RAWRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

nice leg extensions to finish off the quads bro and overal a good solid workout session with some nice weights flying around

 

[philosopher]

Yes I make some noise but didnt scream like I used to do. I think thats were it went wrong. thanks for stopping by m8.

 

[Lionheart]

Squats looking good philo.Too bad your PR attempts failed.Youll hit them,sooner or later

 

[Hypocrisy86]

Hey man dont ya worry bout that DL fail, you'll get it back and do it well.

[miamiracing]

big workout philo, just try the deads again next time, get hyped up and im sure u will hammer it for 2-3 reps

 

[Rocky]

Solid session. getting the dead just below your knee is pretty much the hardest bit! You'll have it next time for sure!

[DriDDeRz]

i enjoy your workouts phil, that arent extreme but they are the correct exercises needed to see some great results bro

 

[El Freako]

Practice makes perfect Philo, keep on at those cleans. It took me ages to get my technique right when I was learning to do them but now its been so long since I last did them and I bet I'm back to sucking at them now.

Good sessions too mate, sorry its been a while since I've looked in.

 

[Daniel Andersson]

Great work Philo , Just keep working at the technique and it will come

 

[PrinceVegeta]

Nice session there philo! keep up the good work!!

 

[Rocky]

Persistence is the key Philo. Those oly lifts is pure technique. I struggle to do them too, but good to see you utilizing them.

Trained with my nephew. I visited him and he wanted to get some tips from me. First tip, you must leave the gym asap. No squatrack = epic fail. For the rest just anatoher commercial gym with too many rulez. I had it all planned, some front squats, DL, GM etc etc. to give him a burning sensation which remembers him of the best session in his life so far. But that didnt work out so we did the above. Nothing special but ok.

 

[El Freako]

No Squat rack? Total fail.
