Of course, but I do it to train stability and control

One of the main reasons for BSS.

As well as individual leg strength.

Wills, great workout - and HEAVY BSS too! Get the hang on them, and really learn to push through with the glutes and keep your core tight.

Once you've got stable and mastered them, try deficit BSS... they will make you feel like the weakest man in the planet. Horrid but lovely!

I always fall over when I deficit my BSS

MoNkeE · 13 Feb 2013 at 07:06

This was my first time ever doing BSS so I knew my stability was going to be awful

Deception · 13 Feb 2013 at 07:35

Love BSS, always guaranteed a few days of DOMS from them

Once you get it nailed, you'll love to hate them even more!

LiE · 13 Feb 2013 at 09:44

DBSS - all kinds of DOMS.

What's a deficit, having your front leg raised?

Yep.

Well, both obviously but I presume your back leg was raised anyway

Yea. So where normally your knee would hit the floor now it can go deep for extra special sauce burn.

So, dieting sucks

LiE · 18 Feb 2013 at 11:27

Bro, you need a lesson in anabolic lighting. That's ****ing pathetic, I'm dead srs.

MoNkeE · 18 Feb 2013 at 11:38

Bannatynes doesn't even lighting.

mrthingyx · 18 Feb 2013 at 11:48

Not sure I'll be coming to the Strongman Meet (weekend of daughter's birthday), but next time, I'll come along with teh camera for some ultra-homo-ism and anabolic lighting shots.

If anybody wants.

Still see how have bulky shoulders, however!

LiE · 18 Feb 2013 at 12:19

You do look like you've gained some mass though.

MoNkeE · 18 Feb 2013 at 13:18

Picture was to see what I look like after my new supplements. Gonna be interesting to see what happens to my shape in the next few weeks, and leaning out is going to make me look a LOT bigger I think.

LiE · 18 Feb 2013 at 13:26

Definitely. Being lean makes you look big, even if you aren't a mass monster.
