Drazen Posted October 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2015 W4D1 volume bench:5x5x270 Deadlift1x5x3453x3x3651x2x4151x1x435 I like it when the weights dont feel as heavy as you think they should. Also, it looks like I have a 2 week work trip to Switzerland coming up the last 2 weeks of the month. Trying to find a gym there where I can drop in for a reasonable fee (not easy there) and actually has proper free weights (also not easy there, all of the gyms I have looked at on past trips are mostly cardio based). Otherwise this challenge will be ending next Wednesday. Quote Link to comment

Drazen Posted October 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2015 W4D5 not a great day - everything felt soooo heavy and grindy, but alas the workout was mostly completed. Slight tapering as I am planning on doing the "Heroes of Hoist" lifts on Wednesday. Bench:3x5x2702x3x295 Deadlift:1x5x3452x3x365 Quote Link to comment
Drazen Posted October 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2015 W5D1 I had a bit of a time limit today so I focused on sqwaaats - by far my weakest lift. 2x5x2753x5x285 Wednesday is virtual meet day! Quote Link to comment

Stronkey Kong Posted October 15, 2015 Report Share Posted October 15, 2015 That's what I see. And, based on the proportions of your lifts, I wouldn't say your squat is impoverished, I'd say your bench is rich. I'm the opposite. My bench and deadlift fit the usual proportions, but are poor relative to my rich squat. Your squat and DL seem proportionate to each other. But you bench almost as much as you squat.

It helps that I finally feel like I have enough confidence in my squat and DL (re: the balls) to really go after higher weights Quote Link to comment
Drazen Posted October 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2015 Challenge Summary: Since I wont be able to do any heavy lifting for the next couple weeks, I decided to put the final updates in now. I will still continue with my normal schedule with that the hotel has to offer (DB's, leg press machine, press machine, and a few others that I will see if i can adapt). Challenge Goal 1: Smashed my PL goal of 1100 (previous high was 1035) with a 1205 total during the Heroes of Hoist virtual competition! Challenge Goal 2: Successfully accomplished, mainly by fast walking with a 40lb weight vest on. Life Challenge: Epic fail Long Term Weight Goal: I seemed to hover right around 260 - it is time to really focus on eating a cleaner diet (re: STOP EATING CHOCOLATE). Now on to the next challenge, which will be brainstorming goals for the next NF challenge 1 Quote Link to comment

Stronkey Kong Posted October 20, 2015 Report Share Posted October 20, 2015 Nice job! The lifts were epic. And that's what counts. Also jealous of your rucking, I tried to do some of my own but only made it out once. How to be social among the warriors:1) Post food porn.2) Post brotastic gifs/memes3) Make fun of @mattyboy7one8 by '@' mentioning him and what a giant pussy he is on other peoples' threads. 1 Quote ===================================================================================================== --Stronkey Kong-- Link to comment

Yea, no #3 will get you at least an additional 50-75 posts/replies. The vast majority will be to join in on the mockery, and the rest will be lolz.
