My name is Steven , I am a fatty. Member 6048, 393 posts	Post Edited: 28.07.2016 @ 22:43 PM by StevenFatty Safety Bar Squats 100 x 5 100 x 5 100 x 5 100 x 5 100 x 7 (amrap) Didn't find these too hard. Definite strength increase in safety squat...a few weeks ago I struggled to do 1 set of 4 reps at 100 kg. I need to wear a belt as I just can't get the abdominal pressure without it, but they still absolutely give my back a belting... especially the spinal erectors Strict Press 50 X 5 60 X 4 50 X 7 50 X 7 50 x 6 (only just made the 6th) My strength has gone up on these...in terms of reps definitely Assistance work Chins up (assisted because I am pathetic).....3 sets Pull downs with very thick bar....3 sets (followed by a quick set high rep set of dips just for the sake of it) Grip work Very partial pull downs with extremely thick bar (~3 inch diameter) ...3 sets..really hammered my forearms. Dumbbell curls conventional and hammer curls. Grabbed a 40 kg dumbbell in each hand and held for as long as possible...which admitted wasn't long...forearms were knackard.

My name is Steven , I am a fatty. Member 6048, 393 posts	Post Edited: 01.08.2016 @ 22:37 PM by StevenFatty Safety Bar Squats 70 kg 20 reps...first 13 continuous, slowed down after that but still done quite quickly. Last time I did 20 rep squats I did 60 kg, and I struggled with back fatigue. This wasn't a problem this time, and overall the set was a lot easier. Good improvement!! Bench Pressing 100 X 6 90 X 8 80 X 8 70 X 8 60 X 8 Grip Work Seated rows with 3 inch thick bar..4 sets. .............Had to share the bench with a rapscallion, who actually turned out to be a rather pleasant individual. I should stop classifying people as rapscallions based upon their appearance. 2 sets of a row machine contraption. Waste of time. 2 sets of dumbbell hammer curls. Held on to a 50 kg dumbbell in one hand for as long as possible. Then did the same with my other hand. Then did 3 sets of rope triceps pull downs because I thought I remembered they used to work my grip. They did very little. Mirror Glances Still look fat. Also have a beard.

Sugdens crazy old person. Member 4936, 7288 posts SQ 270, BP 155, DL 270 695.0 kgs @ 100kgs UnEq	I understand the feel sick. Conans Wheel is the winner if what makes me sick the best.

My name is Steven , I am a fatty. Member 6048, 393 posts	I've never done it, but I'm sure it would be nauseating. Cramming all this work in two sessions per week is really challenging. The nausea kicks in pretty much without warning, and once it's started it's difficult to get rid off.

Squatting isn't doing my back any good. Member 5108, 869 posts SQ 170, BP 125, DL 210 505.0 kgs @ 93kgs UnEq	That's some pretty strong DOH deadlifting. -Do you remember what your best DOH was when you were doing 290? Would be curious to know.

My name is Steven , I am a fatty. Member 6048, 393 posts	Haven't got a clue mate, sorry. I used to use fat bars a lot and that helped with my grip.

Still got a little bit of strength Member 400, 22040 posts	What do you mean by 'picked up like an Inch dumbbell'?
StevenFatty		...	11-08-2016 @ 21:31
My name is Steven , I am a fatty. Member 6048, 393 posts	In my mind I pretended it was an inch dumbbell. I picked it up repeatedlly, I suppose it was a bit like a one armed deadlift. I did it like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q3hf5sZAhmA

My name is Steven , I am a fatty. Member 6048, 393 posts	Post Edited: 16.08.2016 @ 20:00 PM by StevenFatty Safety Bar Squats Had to train alongside an absolute halfwit. Complete idiot. 105 X 5 105 X 5 105 X 5 105 X 5 105 X 6 A lot easier than the 5 sets of 97.5 X 7 that did last week. Log Don't know how heavy the log is...I added a little weight to it. 2 sets of 8 reps 1 set of 6 reps. Dumbbell Shoulder Presses 20 kg dbs 1 set X 10, 1 sets X 8, 1 set X 7 Incline bench isolation machine 15 kg each side 2 sets of as many as possible. Absolute waste of time. Chin-ups 3 sets Grip Work Pull downs with fat bar ...2 sets...feeling easier Partial pull downs with fat bar. 25 kg plate pinches 2 sets each arm. Difficult. 10 kg hex dumbbell held as long as possible 2 sets each hand. Left hand a lot weaker. 3 sets of hammer curls 22 kg dbs about 10 reps each set. Sledge hammer leavers upwards two sets each side. Held sledge hammer horizontally with hammer end at left and rotated it, the did the same with the hammer at the right. I understand this even if no-one else does. Thumb specific sledge hammer exercise.

Sugdens crazy old person. Member 4936, 7288 posts SQ 270, BP 155, DL 270 695.0 kgs @ 100kgs UnEq	The belt makes it worse for me at times. One time on keg loading I pinched my fat between the keg and fat ouch. I found a semi tight thin cheap leather skinny belt works better for deads. One thing about you is you are trying to find answers. This is good.
