What's up man? I haven't been on here in a long time, how's the lifting going?

yes i believe it is, seeing as how deadlift is leading by quite a few votes over any olympic lift

Deadlift has gotta win, the amount of strength and power and muscle gained from a deadlift definitely seem superior to any of the other lifts, tho I imagine olympic lifts might come close

large amounts of burpees, sprints, bear crawls, and buddy carries. or this: Do it on a basketball court or area you can bear crawl 12 jumping jacks 11 jump squats 10 pushups 9 lunges 8 close grip pushups 7 hindu squats 6 floor lifts 5 burpees 4 squat thrusters 3 one leg squats 2 one armed...

damn since its just a college test I wouldnt recommend doing all this long distance running. 2-3 fast 1.5 mile runs a week should be enough to pass the test. If you were looking to really ace the test then I'd do lots of preparation but since you are just looking to pass and stay big and strong...

It sounds like you definitely want to run a bit to get faster for that test. But if I were you I'd do the minimum possible, maybe three 1.5 mile runs a week or something. That wouldnt negatively impact you much I dont think, when I did about that much cardio I was still able to progress well at...

I don't think it will help your squats, but if you are running fast, hard, and short (ie for cardiovascular) it wouldnt be too detrimental

nice I see lots of improvements in your lifts!

I like to look at it this way: Bench: 1.5x bodyweight or 15-20 reps at bodyweight is a good bench, 2.0x bodyweight or 30 reps is when you can consider your bench pretty damn strong This is assuming all natural.
