you ever taken a video of your form LF???

I did a couple weeks ago, I was surprised at how shytty my deadlift form looked from the side... kinda a hybrid of straight leg/floor deadlift.

I've since been working on getting my ass lower, but this is more just a pointless question ;)

Semag, no man, but it's fun you mention it because my friend and I were about to do it this week! I don't think my form is ****ty because I focus on keeping the hips down and lifting with both back and legs. Try olympic lifting dude that will help you keep that ass down :p

Double, no man, I just switch it around a little, it feels good to get fresh workouts from time to time.

Silver, I intake about 8 scoops of whey a day and 1 litre milk... I can't afford meat at the moment so I go for this. that's like 200 g protein. Seems to work for me.

And you ****ing **** I am going to ***** you so ****ing **** that your *** sticks out of your ****** mother****ing ******* come over here and I'll **** smash in your *** so it bleeds all over you ****ing ******* =D

no kidding dude.

I've a story to tell.

I was home and drinking a little ouzo from my bottle. Pretty bored, chilling. A girl called me up and wanted me to come to a club. I thougtht what the hell and left dressed in a pair of jeans, a wife beater and a pair of sneakers and an attitude from hell. Put on a jacket too and left.

I was walking down the street and noticed some dangerous elements walking about. Two gangs, I clenched my fist and my ribbling quadriceps and awaited an attack at any moment. But nothing happened to my relief. I let loose of my flexing walked calmly forward.

When I came to the club I removed my jacket and flexed my triceps and walked up the stair ALPHA way. Found the girls who called me and I went forward and introduced myself. We talked for a while, there were some guys they knew there too. One had an Iron Cross.

I walked to the dance floor with my head held high in true swedish tradition. We danced for a while and then I ordered two beers and glunked down pretty fast. Returned to the dance floor and let loose like a ****ing god.

One girl told me that the other liked me, (duh!) I wouldn't have noticed this myself. I continued to dance with them and then we went out to take a smoke. I said I didn't smoke because I trained. =) Well.. I was ****ing bored so I started to make out with the girl that liked me. Yeah, it was fun. Then we returned and danced some more.

Anyway.. I took another beer again and I didn't seem to find them, what a drag I thought and looked a little until I cought my eyes on a cool girl. I walked to her and introduced myself, flexing my stomach. It seems I had partied with her before so I took her to the dance floor for some grinding.. she was all into me... I saw that, and who can blame her? Her friend told me he would beat me down if I touched her. I was not afraid of him.. but he was joking.

After the dance and showed of my biceps I walked to another bar and I meet up with the other chicks. Now I had to think fast so I flexed my calf and introduced the girl I had made out with to the other girl and told her we had partied together when I graduated from school. They was about to walk to another side of the club. I told them I'll come in just a second, then I asked the bartender for a pen and gave it and a paper to her and told her to write down her number. She did, I read it to her with one digit wrong and she corrected me. So it was pretty good. Hugged her and walkt to the other chicks.

blablabla... alot of **** happened which was boring.. I was cool, blabla.. flexed my muscles... drank some beer... made out some more... went home to the girl... blabla.. no condom.. I was pissed.. got some sleep and walked home.

Just because you can rep with 140 doesn't mean you should max out on 155!

Don't go for one-rep maxes. Leave that to the bench-boy competitions, just work up from your 140 with good form, hell next time put on 142.5, there's no shame in only a 2.5kg weight increase.. even 1.25kg if you're stuck. Doesn't seem much but it adds up.

As for the triceps, see reverse kickback comments on Silverwex's thread, to be honest I can't see how the hell triceps are involved in a deadlift unless you're doing something wrong like pulling it up rather than back with your shoulders at the end?

Your arms are just hooks, they're not directly involved at all.
