no suprise that the cops are black... :rolleyes:

doing deep squats actually help my knees. i noticed that when i stopped working out for a few months my knees were still fine but i'd notice more cracking. sometimes i like to do my squats with a 2 second pause at the bottom, they're intense as hell and require a complete explosion.

how far wide would you say your wrists are in relation to your shoulders? would a good grip be a grip where my wrist are directly above my elbows?

CCJ. i already know that you've commented on this before somewhere in this LONG thread, but since im not a plat member and cant search your thread.... :) but i was wondering. what is the proper grip width for a standing military press, if you dont mind you can go specific about your form. :)...

damn man that shit must suck. the usa is so fuckin heavy on sentences, they dont even treat people like humans. in canada, my friend got away with prohbation for armed home invasion. they were stupid clowny kids and one of them decided to pick up a cell phone at the scene of the crime and put it...

my opinion oly full squat is better for quad growth and functional strength.

what sort of weight should one use when doing these reactive squats? perhaps a percentage based off of my 1 rep max?

i could've sworn ive seen a vid of you doing these, and i dont remember you tucking your blades, because that forms an arch, and i recall that your back was flat against the bench..wouldn't it be more functional to not tuck the shoulders in and to have a completely flat back?

how do you recommend these 14inch presses to be performed. im already aware that you dont use leg drive or arch, but what elbow position should i use? should i intentionally tuck them, flare them, or just let them go to whatever natural position they end up in. also where do you bring the...

hmmm i got some questions today.. my standing military press has been very stagnant lately, and that's the lift i want the most progression on, i want a big press. my typical 5 sets of 3-5 with same weight for all sets is no longer working. do you think i would see progress if i applied your...

maybe you should use with elevated heels? i personally use these slip on dress type shoes with the rear heel elevated with allows me to go as deep as possible with my back as upright and straight as possible. when i get money i'm gonna invest in some oly shoes, until then the dress shoes will...

this depends. if we're talking seated then yeah i can probably use the same weight as cg bench or maybe more. but if it's standing im a good 40 pounds behind.

ccj, i was wondering if you ever had a problem with your quads spasming when doing standing militaries. it seems for me that my whole body is so tense that sometimes at the end of a set my legs begin to spasm uncontrollably. maybe its the creatine?, i drink a boat load of water too, i dont know...

ccj. if you dont mind. can you please elaborate on this? "ISO RDL and Bulgarian SPlitsquat hold for 1min each - sorted and fast!" i posted this here because maybe you wont view the other thread again.

impressive stuff ccj.. i too am climbing my way up to bw standing military press. 170 for 5 is impressive...my 1rm max is 170(maybe its 175 now..) it felt like a ton of bricks...lol. but anyways do you ever do presses seated..and what would you say are the advantages and disadvatages of both? im...
