Actually when I started I was doing 4 seconds neg and 4 seconds postive like the training guide recommended.
I have been switching it up lately though (every second workout) and doing 6 second negative and then like you say an explosive positive.
Yes power racks are great. I'm not arguing that.
I've put on approx 12-15 lbs in the last ten months. Like I said I'm not a serious bodybuilder or anything so my body fat % is a mystery to me. I'm a lanky guy by nature and since I've been trying to bulk up I have noticed a little extra...
Yes that's exactly what I thought.
It was the first time I had ever performed repetitions with an 8 second count though. What I found was the amount of weight I needed to bring myself to failure in 8-15 reps was actually quite manageable.
Doing repetitions with a "normal" pace though...
Hey guys!
I haven't posted on this board much but I thought I would today just to report some of the recent successes I've had with my workout.
I've been weight training on and off for about 10 years and have had limited results with it. My workouts were done with freeweights and it...
Clooney
Good post and lots of good discussion.
I like the way you handled things Clooney and I think Wyldfire's advice was the best.
I don't think your girls feelings or even yours are as strong as you believe. If you and your girl WERE truly in love with each other then none of this...
Hi Drix
No my comments about "taking advice with a grain of salt" wasn't really directed at anyone specifically. Certainly not you. More of a generalization for the entire forum.
Almost all of the advice and comments I received were pretty much bang on for the most part.
While...
Hey guys
Just your friendly neighborhood Slick back with some more food for thought.
I'm sorry that I've let this thread die somewhat but as you know I've been extremely busy with renos at my place.
Once again I'd like to thank all those who took the time to respond and give advice...
Your jokes and sarcasm don't come across correctly on text messages. Don't bother.
I'll also add....
I'm not sure what your goal is here by saying this.
"What about me?" - Is this your way of letting her know you are interested? If so, that's not very suave.
A better...
1. Accept the loss of a good friendship/relationship.
2. Accept the fact that it is okay to feel sad.
3. Take some time for yourself to mend.
4. Keep yourself busy and find new interests.
5. Always take steps to improve yourself.
6. Realize that your happiness can't be based...
I agree!
If you REALLY are that serious about this woman then don't piss around. Tell her how you feel and tell her you want her to come with you, otherwise the relationship will end.
If she feels the same way about you then she'll do anything to keep you together.
If not, then its...
You are looking for something that isn't there.
Your answer is a simple one.
Desperation is why you fail.
Paradox = any inconsistent or contradictory fact, action, or condition.
The more you desire the less desirable you become.
Think long and hard about that.
Hey guys its been awhile.
So Rebecca HAS moved back to my city to stay. Last weekend we went and picked up the last of her things from her old place. Although we've only known each other a few months she will be moving into my place with me.
Yes I know that sounds absolutely crazy...
Oh I don't know, I think when I made this post I was getting ticked off at how many player related posts were popping up. The constant flaming and arguing about which path (DJ vs Player) was the right one. I really have nothing against anyone who wants to pursue either lifestyle.
I'm sure...
Wow this seems like a really old thread!
I haven't been around the boards as much lately and I haven't been visiting the main board at all.
I do remember this period of time very well though. Player Supreme was posting like 15-20 times a day and some believed he was also posting under...
Here's what I do...
Whether I'm involved in an exclusive relationship or not I always (try to) maintain the same attitude when I'm out and about. I'm a very friendly person and I am always interested in meeting new people. I regularly speak to strangers in almost any social setting...
Hey Guys thanks for the kind words and the concerns.
Just a super quick update as I'm heading out for dinner. I've been SOOOOO busy doing renovations on my house and haven't had a minute of time to do any posting.
Rebecca has come to my city and has found one job and is currently looking...
