Why champ?

It's a mental thing. To me it seems to occupy more space on the page that your core workout so I forget what it is that is more important....Then I have to reread the title and remember that the core lifts are where its at. It's not a bad thing...just confusing

You bought the original Bill Starr book, right?

Thanks champ, and i will. Even tho i might leavy Bill starr soon

Way to be consistent mate. Hard work is paying off.

Idd it is, but i'll only be happy when i'm as strong as you (80kg dips )

100 % natural - hard work!

Amen! - Thanks for the workout today!

My beach work is only 15 minuts, i dont do more beach work, than what i can do in 15 minuts - Thats why i superset.

Yes, i bought the book. And i'm reading it. By far the best book i read so far. Why champ?

Thanks buddy. A squat PB is always nice, i just wish that i could add more weight at BP and DL, but a wise man once said; When you gain body weight, you'll be able to add more weight @ squat, faster than at DL and bench press, due to gravity movement. But DL and bench press, will come. Just abit slower

Todays workout with Ody

My squat, was allright. It was by hard the toughest lift i ever did, and i only got 4 reps. The technique wasn't pretty, i lost my tightness in lower back at the bottom off the lift, and like always my knees came in

Due to the "attack" at my lower back from squat, i was completely drained when i came to DL, so i couldn't really lift as heavy as i wanted, without fucking up my technique.

Bench was good

Good session Xiva. Too bad about your knees bending in if you feel like that's what's holding you back.
You do any adductor work? Maybe put an elastic band between your legs?

I believe sumo deadlift is what got my adductors so freakishly strong. My knees rarely bend inward, even on heavy lifts. Just some food for thought

I dont do any adductor work, anything speciel you would recommend. A very good friend of mine, suggested the same, so i might listen....

I was gonna keep it a supprise, but allright then

It will not be Starr again, i thought about continuening with star and just change the rep to 8 and "start over" But i decided not too.

I'll begin @ some modificated sheiko. It's so modficated that people i talked with didn't think that you call it sheiko

Changes:
1. changed the intensity at some of the support exercises and added some new once for overall safty and health

2. added another bunch of exercises to put on some mass.

3. did a few changes so there will be focus at overall strength instead of only having focus at the big 3's which sheiko normally haves.
