Have decided i'm gonna lay off the Jack3d for awhile, that shit's making me angus as! Was good for the first couple of days and have been having the meanest sleeps but yeah after today I felt like I was gonna turn into She Hulk :x

Yeah every few days I would get total rage and just sneer at everyone in the gym. I would actually exhaust myself because of anger! So ditched Jack3d. Hydroxycut was also pretty bad too.

[morattigirl]

Angry angus? Mr Moratti girl sir!! Lol 1MR makes me a tad impatient.

Awesome work on the rack deads miss!!!

Lol yup angry angus Harry. I literallly had to leave the house and go for a walk to let off some steam, felt heaps better afterwards tho :nod: and cheers but holy moly my lower back is sore today :shock:

Wanted to add in some board work as per Startinfromscratch's suggestion, I really wanted to do abit more of this but was fully running out of time & wanted to do some other exercises. I do like this though, can someone give me a refresher to the benefits of board work?? Ta

[steak]

Boards - work that particular part of the lift up. eg if your a raw lifter and you have a sticking point say 3 inches off your chest then use say a 2 bd to build strength through that area...typically its the transition into the triceps where the stuffing falls out of the lift for a raw lifter. Reckon youd benefit from adding it to flat bench work after your main bench sets...say 6-8 sets of 3 off the board for a month and you might see a difference.

Awesome thanks steak, yup will definately add in some board work to FB, i'm all for bringing my bench up & keen to try different things to help. Cheers

2boards for RAW lifters. IMO the other huge benefit is working with weights over your max, safely. gives you confidence knowing how the weight feels before you attempt it from the chest. 8)

Nice work Jess...admire your work ethic 8)

[Shutupandsquat]

I haven't really checked up on this lately but I'm pretty sure you're repping now what your 1rms used to be not too long ago. (My memory isn't THAT good) Either way, nice. Are you doing box squats because you aren't getting deep enough or for another purpose?

[HarryB]

Good work MG as always, keeping it real! I reckon once you've done a month or so of this hardcore PL stuff we really would need some more pics to evaluate your progress!! Ha ha ha
