Corbab Posted February 28, 2012 Report Share Posted February 28, 2012 Today I deadlifted 100lb for 50 reps. I haven't really hit the weights in a couple of weeks, but I still managed to up my weight and get through my set without dropping the bar.I also added weight to all of my lifts, which feels pretty great. And apparently Fitocracy doesn't accept 50 rep sets. Fun fact.

This is Seth Posted February 28, 2012 Report Share Posted February 28, 2012 Logic be damned. Congratulations on the absurd amount of reps. Quote You ever see those guys who look like they totally used to be in shape? I'm working to get back to that... Link to comment
weirdquark Posted February 28, 2012 Report Share Posted February 28, 2012 And apparently Fitocracy doesn't accept 50 rep sets. Fun fact.Really? I feel better about not joining Fitocracy until after doing squats for 50 reps at 50%BW then. I was sad about all of those points that I thought I'd get.They must accept them for some things though -- one of the quests is 100 consecutive pushups. Quote I lift heavy things.

gugi9000 Posted February 28, 2012 Report Share Posted February 28, 2012 Fitocracy has this weird policy about not letting you log absurd number of reps. When a number is absurd differs from exercise to exercise. Just log them as two sets. You get the most points around 5-10 reps on heavy stuff, IIRC. Quote (Fitocracy | Runkeeper) Link to comment
Corbab Posted February 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2012 They must accept them for some things though -- one of the quests is 100 consecutive pushups.Yeah, it's kinda funky. I did the 100 pushup challenge and it didn't have a problem. I think it was only with the deadlifts and squats. The widowmaker challenge is for 20, but I don't know what the cutoff value is.
