I've got to the point now that if my muscles aren't tender, it doesn't feel right :/

Yeah...I've only been doing it for a few months now...If I don't feel a bit of 'discomfort' shall we say, I find the previous session pointless
My mate called me weird the other day because I said that

I always feel bad trying one rep max, but I think it might motivate me to lift heavier. 100k squat and dead lift should easily be within me, perhaps 75k bench. I sort of feel like I'm cheating by doing it.
Is it best to do a one rep max at the very beginning when you're less tired, or more towards the middle or end once you're warmed up but have lost a bit of energy? I'd be leaning more towards middle, but I guess everyone is different.

Is also worth doing some drop sets as well.

has anyone else noticed lately how they seem to be lifting more?
My lifts in the last few weeks have been brill. and coupled with the fact that i don't go as often now due to being a daddy feeling pretty positive come 2010 when i get to go back 4days a week
Benching 120k in reps of 10 1 RM 160k
Deadlifted 500lb TWICE the other day so gonna be going for 510lb hopefully tonight, fingers crossed.
Just squat i haven't been able to load up due to gym
Whats more i've lost half a stone

Nice going mate - we're almost on par (you're a bit ahead of me). Though I have been able to squat!

Been reading this forum section and CANNOT believe there is someone openly admitting to taking Steroids.
How can the forum let this happen ?
Its gonna encourage younger kids to think its ok.
Whats the guys name ? Ultra Extreme ? I seen the photos and they dont seem to have done much.
Surely in a sports forum, and especially a family one the dons would try and stamp this sort of thing out?

They're not illegal and he's done nothing wrong.
Permabanned
er,... yes they are.
Why do you think they are a controlled substance ?
They are prescribed to people that need them.

Illegal to sell, legal to use. He's done nothing wrong

Ok, I stand corrected.
If I had deemed it innapropriate rest assured I would have delt with it.
Caporegime
No worries
Most people do instantly think "Steroids! Illegal!"...It's just how they have been reported over the years I guess.

Going for squats tonight. My traps and lower back are still a bit tender from Weds DL's though, it is lactic acid and not DOMs I think. I'm going to take a rough guess that I'll be able to push for 80kgx10, but will be starting with just the bar to practice form and work my way up

It is quite funny how he came in here trying to act all high and mighty just to have been flattened.
Care to post some pictures of yourself?

It's DOMS
Caporegime
Really? It's not like DOMs I've ever had, but very much like lactic acid I've had after cardio sessions. If it is DOMs, then wow.. defo doing more of those
