20 Reps 'til I Puke - FFQuads Log

[Guinness5.0]

Serioulsy dude, doing everything for 20 reps is pretty much retarded IMHO. I wasn't gonna sya it cause you're a good guy. But if you look at some of the programs that emphasize 20-reppers on squat you may like them. I loved it - it was a fun way to see what I was made of.

And at your bodyweight, you are seriously strong, bro!

Ok guys, I think I'm an addict! A fuckin' junky!! So, I get to the gym thinking I'm going to do the 20 rep workout. Miserable.......lost.......one set of 20 and I lost it!!! I went and got the chalk and started lifting heavy. It made me some happy I could not stop. The rest is history. I hate to start this log and just back out of it after 1 week. I'm going to think about this over the weekend.

Did your Mama raise a quitter?

OK then, let me start a poll. I'll post it right now and bump it till Sunday. If everyone says "do the heavy weights", then I'll do them, and if everyone says "do the 20 reps"......then I'll still do whatever the fuck I want.......lol

how about this

work up to a topset of 5, then do a set of 20 as a backdown... so 315 x 5 and 225 x 20 for an example

First day was a fucking joke! I can't believe how stupid I must look to everyone at the gym. I can't wait till the weight go up because I'm going to turn gay doing this shit! Easy and embarassing!!!

of course that's what I thought about the 5x5 till week 6.....

Hey man, it doesn't matter what anyone else thinks. You're training for yourself...so go for it on your plan.
