Wow dude, looks intense. It looks like you took from methods from DC and created your own little program.

It works out pretty darn good. . . I am focusing on lower back and hams, so really don't have any troubles.

Swain... it's really odd. In some exercises, I do a little more weight than you, in some exercises, you do more than me... and in some even still... we are doing the same amount of weight! LOL

I really want to get a saftey squat bar so I can see how heavy I can do on back squats... I can do 1-2 reps on fronts with 275lbs... going down really far....

Man, if you move to Skokie, IL -- we will have to get some training in ... I think you'd really like Chicago. :)

Awesome workout bro... Totally Awesome... I can't wait to workout now. :)

C-ditty

Citrus,

In terms of strength, I consider my back, legs, and biceps to be the strongest. Pressing has always been a challenge for me, but I have been able to build a good chest, delts, and triceps.

I guess each individual is different. Lately, I have had a hell of a time with shoulder presses. . . I think its because I perform shoulder presses right after incline presses.

Regardless of the weights we use, the important thing is that we are all pushing ourselves for self-improvement. I am more impressed by work ethic and determination that someone who can shift around heavy weights. I think many of you guys feel the same way.
