Laghail Posted February 28, 2017 Report Share Posted February 28, 2017 I did my speed attempt this week and got 81 seconds for the male advanced weight. 300x20 reps, and a desk lady suggesting I switch to lighter or quieter weights. She's not the cheering section I asked for, but she's the cheerleader I deserve. I'll do an attempt for max weight in 5 mins next week and I'm sure my new BFF will chime in on that attempt too. 6 Quote Link to post

Nearly two years ago he posted a video of a 385 pound squat and you said something that if you were a judge you would give it all white lights, even if it did look like a squat-morning. You said something about him looking like Ogre from Revenge of the Nerds. 4 Quote Link to post

miss_marissa Posted February 28, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2017 Would you guys want me to edit in a leaderboard at the end of the OP? For those who are going for heaviest weights or fastest time? No prizes or anything just fun for bragging rights. Maybe @Gainsdalf the Whey could hand out fun titles if you want to. 1 Quote Link to post

I think time is the best one. As strategy matters between going heavy vs light weights for time. ETA: or maybe a time category and then a total lbs moved within 5 minutes. Quote Link to post

Seriously though, I think the leaderboard is a great idea, top 5 for both for each gender I'd say. Something to come back to and quote should we do this again. 5 Quote Link to post
Agnarr Posted February 28, 2017 Report Share Posted February 28, 2017 Had to use the weight set I got at home for a total of 57kg including the bar. (Is one of those "this is the year I get fit" sleevless bars). Aimed for "beginner male" 2x10 1x12 Took me 3'28", short rest included.

Plato was Greek So am I and I can confirm that 1) Plato didn't speak in this way because this is modern Greek, 2) Even if he lived nowadays he wouldn't speak in this way because (while I understand what it says) it is not a valid sentence, and 3) Google translate would know what that says. I did the mini challenge today. If I counted correctly it was 50kg x13, 50kg x8, (beginner finished at 19 reps) 50kg x3, 50kg x3 50kg x1 at 4:06. I needed 9 more reps for advanced but I would run out of time and my back started to feel tired. Opted for walking tomorrow. Looking at the video I'm thinking that maybe I should have kept going but meh... Spoiler 8 Quote Link to post
