Ideas For Neck Training + 260 LB EZ Bar Power Upright Rows + 21" Neck Measurement attempt
Third power upright row session using the EZ bar,i did 6 sets of 4/6 reps with 100kg (220lbs) so next time will beat the reps on the higher weights due to not doing so many sets with this weight (100kg/220lbs) I like to get a lot of volume in on new lifts as it builds a base to cycle from going forward. I have a theory about the prov]blem of sleep apnoea from thick necks,i suggest lifters get super fit cardio,this almost always offsets the sleep problems. The problem is most strength athletes are terrified of doing a lot of tough cardio because they're scared of losing gains,they're also often cliuless as to what "get fit" means....It DOESNT mean gently peddling a stationary bike or even a bit of sled dragging,your cardio must be TOUGH...like 5 minute MMA rounds or Boxing intensely ,hill sprints etc...Do this and you'll never get sleep apnoea even if you build a 25" neck,stop being a bunch of pussies and get your heart rates upas well as loading the bar. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qhfPHlOFWpM
Back with some hi pulls,first time in a year.
Could'nt do them at home due to limited weight and a house with a laminate wood flooring and a foundation underneath,a delicate garden patio paving and non stop inclement weather also put paid to outdoor work ay anything heavy too.
Managed to get hold of some rubber bumper plates to save the gym concrete floor for these ballistic lifts.
The weights here were a 20 kg USSR Vintage Disc 20kg Bodypower Black cast iron,20kg York black cast iron .Rubber black 10kg bumper,Rubber 5kg bumper and the usual Silver cast iron 5 and 10kgs.
Just to remove any plate ambiguity.
Followed bu hang hi pulls off matts and pendlay rows.
Any questions,feel free to comment below....
Oh,if you feel inclined,a "like" would be greatly appreciated !

Answering questions,firstly on calluses and how to avoid them,giving ideas about how a correct grip helps all aspects of lifting,especially deadlifting & injury prevention.
Another question on delt power and strength and how varying lifts can bring up deficiencies in the shoulder girdle and upper back/triceps.
Any more questions please leave below.

As the title suggests,in some sports risking everything pays off,in Powerlfting it certainly never does directly from lifting in competitons..
Keep it to the level where you control it,not letting it control you.

Vlog number 84
Speed pulls with 500lbs bar weight plus approx.50lbs band tension at lockout.
Using a conjugate type system,only with v ery limited equipment.
This weeks main assistance movement was close stance .dead stop goodmornings using an awkward straight bar,which has a tendency to roll.
But never mind,if i let much less than ideal circumstances stop me i'd probably have never started lifting in the first place,as my area of residence has always been 30 years behind the educated & civilised world.
You just make do and get on with it.
Let the abject hatred,resentment and invidiousness of your situation and station in life to fuel your kill-dozer engine.
Watch for a 405lbs x 4 rep goodmorning in 2020.
From a 49 year old bloke too,fuckers.
The upper back work is getting stronger,my back getting thicker and more cartooninsh each month.
To all you 25 year olds out there who are too scared to eat 6 eggs a day,whats your excuse?

The end of a 3 week block,going from 4 reps to 8 reps.
Next week 2" deficit deadlifts will be introduced to present a temporary handicap.
The increased R.O.M. Will make this weight seem effortless from the floor when the deficit is
removed after 3 weeks.
Simple strategies like this are the keys to what makes ordinary people extraordinary if adhered to over the long haul.

A follow-up video on the progressive ROM training method.
This week went 1.5" lower than last time with more weight and also squatted more weight for more reps at 39.5" inches from the floor.
The depth of the lowest squats looked a lot more reasonable this week,its amazing what difference a couple of inches makes visually on camera.
I might try for an inch or two lower before declaring this progressive ROM method a decent tool for your tool-box,i'll milk these till i go stale.
Everything works but nothing works indefinitely.
I'm finding that as we age our training must evolve too.

As the description suggests,a quick impulsive response to typically ignorant comments that don't have any effect on my physical self but will make sure those whom are afflicted will never make the gainzz they really could.

This video is a bit late but my sentiments are more of a philosophical approach rather than total condemnation,looking at it from a humanistic as well as realistic point of view.
Trying to be mature and realistic,difficult at times but taking human nature into account possibly the best angle to view it from.
What does the "profane" of youtube,us lot,the "great unwashed" think of Jeff and his bodyguards?
Don't worry,THEY won't watch this channel,so you can be as salty as you like.
But insult me and you're fucking banned ??
