Letme tell you guys, Friday's workout was complete ass. Once i got in i had NO motivation WTF right? the gym was empty and just wasnt feeling comfortable going for 360x5 w/o a good spotter. Im going to drop the weight to 320 and add weight to the bar constantly all week.

But i did manage to get some videos uploaded:
Ab Station 1. MM's Abs. Situps w/ BAR
Ab station 2. Side Oblique Crunches w/ Band
Mike Deadlifting 485w/ Bands(for bottom of lift) ( Remember i came back and hit 575x1 just my video cam turned off)

Training will be off this week. Making the conclusion to the short film i did. This movie is gonna be atleast 20mins...

Story line in the MOVIE:
My GF was murdered by my alcoholic father, and then i murdered my father. Now im on the run from the LAW, and this 'pimp' who my GF used to work for is after me because he thinks i killed his 'ex love'. Filmed in the tough streets of Queens,NY. This will be fun as hell, training will suffer, BUT NOT REALLY because i will be going after shooting the film LATE tho (10pmish)

Good morning,
Great job on the lift! Just a quick question about the first video. Is it ok to be extending your neck out that much, do you find you are using your back muscles more? I don't know, but it just didn't look comfortable?
I hope you have fun doing the movie!

Good luck with the shoot.....also, good way to use your head and not let your ego take control (something that is tough for a young lifter, I know because I've been there not all that long ago).

What happened was good, because you learned the value of patience first hand, lol, but you also learned when it is time to rely on your body and make an adjustment.....good call on cutting back to 320 and building the poundage from there.

hey whats up CK!

i dont know if its ok or not lol from a doctors P.O.V. but it just looks strained because im looking at a spot near the cieling so im not straining too much.

The lower back muscles do get used in this w/o. Wich i need i need to strenghten my lower back more. CK, the i had the bar + 2.5's on so it was 50lbs. THATS DEF too heavy for you to start with, but maybe a 20lb bar it feels great.

yea, i might be able to muscle out 360x5 today, but ya know what. Its pointless. Its mentally fucking me lol

Besides, added weight to the bar my max will go up reguardless....
Thanks, im trying to train as smart as possible. Its gonna be different to train that late at night. MIGHT be fun tho, banging some heavy weight w/ new audience lol

That is what my trainer told me to do to not using any weights yet, trying to get the form down. I use the decline bench when I do them.
