squat has gone up alot but I'm hoping for a big deadlift in a few weeks...i'm really hitting my weak points. this is actually my main goal right now since i dont have a contest comming up any time soon

power stairs simulation definately sucks, but i think i'm going to keep it for 2 more weeks

yup that was pedialyte, its been the drink of choice lately. It doesnt make me feel thirsty or anything like gatorade does. everyone was giving me crap about drinking it at the contest LOL


are you doing ghr 2x a week now?
 
those are seriously deep gm's my man.

i envy the age at which your starting this.

I'm not a GM expert, but I've always done them with my back arched and kept tight throughout the lift, with more of a pivot at the hip. So really a lot like a stiff-legged dead with the bar on my back. I just go as deep as my hamstring flexibility will allow. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought it was dangerous to round your back on this exercise? Unless you were specifically doing rounded-back GMs, but I wouldn't do those with PR weights that you have to struggle with.

well actually no its not dangerous. but there are arched back gm's and rounded back. you cant go as deep like your saying with arched back, but you can use more weights. rounded back gm's let you go deeper, but you have to lighten the load.

That's what I mean...should he be going to failure at low reps on such an exercise?

well the way wsb works is you go to failure no matter what the exercise. i see what you mean but if t3c only went down to the point where he lost his arch he would probably using close to 100 lbs more than what he's doing.

in other words.......... say my arch gm 1 rep max is 405. now if im going to go as deep as t3c did, i cant use 405 without hurting myself, becuase your not as strong in that bent over positition. so i can only do 315. its still a max, but the max i can do in the bent over positition is less than an arched goodmorning.
