de squat

[kingc_79]

today the crossover was taken so i waited till after speed deads and hypers b4 i did pull thrus and it kicked my ass!!

box sq 10 sets of 2 w/185lb
speed deads 10 singles w/185lb
hyper ext 4 sets of 8 w/35lb plate
pull thrus 5 sets of 10 w/140lbs
ab pull down 5 sets of 10 w/130lbs

my lower back was fried today after i finished. i started doin the speed deads to help my speed of the floor for my meet. i think i'm gonna do them from a 2-4" platform next time.

how long did this take you?
must not have rested much in between sets

could you explain pull thrus please?

 

[kingc_79]

yea it is usually quick on de days. 30-45 sec rest bw box sq. same on speed deads...you get the pic.. and pull thrus...check out spatts page....she shows a fine example of a pull thru http://www.asylum-strength.com/videos.htm

 

[kingc_79]

by the way pull thrus are wonderful...i love em

 

[Liftbig]

looks like a good workout. before i had access to a reverse hyper and glute ham, i lived off of pull throughs, they are awesome.

 

[kingc_79]

i love em...but i think im gonna try to get a ghr sometime in the near future.

 

[Liftbig]

good call.

Any idea on what GHR you are going to get King? I want to pick one up, but $800 shipped is a bit high for me. I was thinking about trying this out though.

Man.... my advice is to NOT buy a glute ham raise... my college gym has one and i still prefer to do them on a bench. Never really liked doing them on the GHR machine.

Now, a reverse hyper on the other hand...

chad,
on those platform speed deads, the groove is totally different on a platform dead than a regular one. i'm not telling u to not do them, but i would alternate or somethng. i love some platforms, but feels way diff then off the floor

 

[kingc_79]

thanks...i was goin to...i dont plan on doin just platform deads...i just wanted to throw them in to help out the bottom portion of the dead. i may not even do them for speed. i dunno yet really.

dude........... king.................

i just went threw that link for the glute ham raise.......... im not sure where they are located. but i started entering my information like i was going to purchase it. and for them to ship it is only 7 bucks.............. thats not bad at all.

so your looking at around 410 for a glute ham machine........not bad.

i think you have to call or go thru w/the order to find out the cost.

 

[Exodus]

i was going thru the order............. just start it like your going to purchase it........... step # 2 is to enter your shipping information......... then the next step is to enter your billing information. i stopped there, but it still caculates shipping. and for where i live it was 7 bucks.

just to let you know, if its not the reverse hyper that lou or dave sells, its not a reverse hyper.

I highly doubt I'll buy another piece of equipment...

I'm lucky enough that my gym has an employee who has totaled elite in the 181s... he ordered a reverse hyper from louie and put it in the gym for everyone to use
