Was devo!! 5-6 weeks prep isn't enough time to get into contest shape. Trying to take the positives out of it though.. In another 12 months time I'll be bigger and better!!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've done 260kg before but I weighed 5kg more then. So this is a pretty big PB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have got trainers but take them off for the heavy stuff. And got a whole in my socks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goliath Member 383 Member For: 14y 6m 22d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 10/10/12 11:04 AM Share Posted 10/10/12 11:04 AM A lot of people use cross trainers and runners when lifting which have a fairly spongy bottom, this causes instability when lifting, especially heavy weights, hence the no shoes and lifting shoes (which you see are pretty stiff and flat).Solid lift there mate, hard to see from the vid, but looks like you start to round your back a little before getting the weight up. But still mirin haha.Managed to aggrevate a nerve in my back today, had to cut the weights shorts and stick to intervals on the cross trainer :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goliath Member 383 Member For: 14y 6m 22d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 10/10/12 11:52 PM Share Posted 10/10/12 11:52 PM Just got back from the physio ( was already booked in for my knee), got him to check out my back. I've managed to injure a rib joint in the back. Think I must have done it with my back session, then aggravated it yesterday with chest (as it was already lingering). Pretty painful atm, but I'm told it shouldn't last more than a week if that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
