hip/groin is still not back on track since cambridge, i stuggled geting 90 down 1/4 of the way, the 110s felt ok but i felt like i was shifting the weight to the left side. decided then to add in the high box squats for the working set just to be on the safe side. May have to make a visit to the doc. but for now im just doing alot of hip flexor stretches, radox, ice packs, deep heat and, voltarens going in

you may benefit from a bit of time spent rolling around your butt cheeks on a tennis ball too bro -

You can progress from a tennis ball to a harder ball as time goes by. ...oh and dont buy a cheap tennis ball from the $2shop...I have squashed 3 this week :roll:

John thanks for the add on Facebook, happily accepted. looked thru some of ur photos... u looked fucken good when u were abit smaller lean and big proportions. thats side tricep shot is good!

Did you go to KBHS?

Mint!

haha shot bro last year xmas shot...was another time. for now its the quest for power, chopping the weight back down so we see how we go! maybe later down the track who knows

nah bro not a Kellystoney hahaha to many play up there!, straight Rutherthug straight out of tat north. live out in hendo now

Hey bro, not trying to take a stab or anything but is there a particular reason as to why your squat is not that high in relation to your bodyweight? Or do you find your height a limiting factor?

Rookie

hey bro, height did play some part but not an excuse. After having a session with tonka and some some of the other boys up at coast we found i had really tights hams/hips so its been a slow prosess bringing up the squat, and i was barely box squating 75 with good form back in may. just time under the bar bro
