all the gainz.. what do you bench? 300kg?

Almost 200kg last night

mrthingyx said:
To be fair, you've probably just been faffing about with too much 60kg/whatever warm-up weights and loads of logging... this is the first time you've actually done a serious workout.

You aren't wrong tbh

LiE said:
Now make sure every week is like this, and the gains will be monstrous.

Yes boss

I've seen some of the other vids, you had a n excellent spot!
And yes, I was in a yellow tshirt, looking like a fat lemon apparently lol.

Should have come and said hello

And it's well worth bragging about Ben, he was awesome

I saw the "yellow t-shirt man" once when you went to the toilet, and then lost track of you until right at the end

Next time!

Ah you saw my best side! Did I look small over near the competitors (they were all by the toilets) lol

don't forget that 90% of your vids are from behind as well, so next time younneed to wear your gym gear and walk everywhere backwards, oh and throw in the occasional squat as well, that might help

This!! lol

I spotted a few beasts tbh! I felt worryingly small haha

Did anyone notice the old man wearing what looked like a karate gi from the 1980's?!

Morba · 8 Apr 2013 at 13:26

Yep, jerking double his strict press is madness, and stupidly impressive lol

Morba · 8 Apr 2013 at 13:42

It was a cracking top, might have to get one myself lol

Morba · 9 Apr 2013 at 11:48

Sheeeeeet, one way ticket to snap city please!!

Morba · 9 Apr 2013 at 13:19

Thats like a lot of machines and all sorts at the gym. People use them because they see others using them with no consideration for what they do or why!

Morba · 9 Apr 2013 at 13:34

Wish i could use straps when using the log. the handles are worse than a razor sharp barbell tbh!

Morba · 10 Apr 2013 at 12:27

BBB is good, if you can hack the boring part!

Morba · 11 Apr 2013 at 12:16

How the hell do you live and move around the world? I bet you don't realise how many times you squat each day. Just bloody squat, that will sort out any muscle imbalance

Morba · 11 Apr 2013 at 12:27

Morba · 11 Apr 2013 at 14:57

is it wrong that I just don't find it that impressive?
The ROM is less than what I get with my t-rex arms and with some training even a young little girl can press 100kg without issue.

Yes but it's those shoddy vague rules which let people arch their back so much!

That's not vague. It is clear as clear can be

Morba · 11 Apr 2013 at 15:28

remember this lad is an oly lifter, so depth here isn't especially important..... he's 56kg

Hang on. Isnt he's form horrendous? So much knee caving!

If I was going to judge him on form then I'd have a lot to say. However he is 14 and squatting 180kg (over 3 x bw). He clean and jerks over 110kg.

That's only relevant to a certain point. If he's expecting to catch his cleans lower than that I'd have kicked him in the throat. Or, more fairly, kicked his coach in the throat for getting this talented young man to show off for YouTube.

Oh definitely and tbh at that age he should be catching heavier weights a lot lower. I'm just being kind as its a silly weight for his age and weight to even be considering

Morba · 12 Apr 2013 at 13:05

Heavy farmers walks, thats great for grip
