Rich's powerlifting log - Page 3 - Health and Fitness Forum

Sounds like it. Either a pure troll or one of those guys who thinks lean mass is bad. There really are some out there, referring to Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson as "obese from muscle." LOL. Either way, it's not permissible behavior here, of course.

You want to get huge, go eat tons of McDonald's. Whether the weight is put on that way or by power lifting, it's equally as harmful for the heart.

What photo? I have a video above that shows me to be fine in terms of bodyfat percentage. Are you one of those guys who wears a size small shirt who doesn't even look like he lifts and has to show his abs to people to try to prove he does? You think lean mass is problematic, as you asked about weight and not bodyfat percentage?

BTW, those are rhetorical questions. If you don't have a lifting comment, don't post in my blog again.

DL: 135x5, 225x5, 275×7, 315×7, 365×7, 395x5 (conventional DL quintuple PR), 415x1
Romanian deadlift: 135x10, 225x8, 275x10, 315x10
Bike ride: 6.5 miles
Walk, daily cumulative: 4.3 miles

Note:

I wouldn't typically mark a 5-rep PR. I did because 395x5 would be the max lift if I were still using 5/3/1 and I'm still keeping an eye on it to gauge progress.

What jumps out at me is how strong your pendlay row is compared to the rest of your lifts. Solid squat aswell. I'd expect your deadlift to be higher than what it is. I'd expect you to pull at least 450+ given those two lifts, but leverages might be a factor.

Edit: It looks like your deadlift might actually be pretty close to 450 given your last entry. Good stuff!

Thanks Maverick. I'm working on the deadlifting and hope to crack 450. I record them here and there to find areas where I can improve.

Close grip bench press: 135x15x2

Note:

I logged a 275 lb row here before, but I didn't take credit for a PR, as the form was fine to count as a gym lift but not as a PR. Today's 275x1 went up nicely.

Shoulder mobility work (PVC pipe stretch, light cambered bar pullovers)
Squat: 55x7, 145x7, 195×7, 235x7, 285x7, 325x5, 375x3
Good mornings: 145x10, 235x10, 285x5
Bike ride (hilly terrain): 10.2 miles

Note:

The light pullovers seem to be doing the trick. My shoulders have been very tight in the back squat position for several years. Pullovers seem to stretch exactly where I need it, and I gripped the bar very comfortably today.
