#foreverbelt

Man, this is becoming as brutal and as arduous as I've read about. But I'm finished with Month 2 of Reg Park's 5x5 as of last night; and I remain committed to tackling month 3 starting tomorrow! Notes: as of last night I finally had to bring back the #foreverbelt as my #core isn't necessary accustomed to handling certain numbers right now. I discovered that placing my heels on two 25lb plates helps boost my #legdrive on the bench. Also, I had to up my #legionpulse intake back to two scoops at 700mgs because this is a lot of work! Numbers: #bandedbackextensions 47.5x2x10, #squat 270x3x5, #benchpress 137.5x3x5, #deadlift 320x3x5. #unitedinstrength #regpark #regpark5x5 #igbodybuilding #bodybuilding #oldschoolbododybuilding #strength #strong #strongandshapelygym #onlinestrengthcoach #beginnersstrengthcoach #rebuild #otomix #reebok #flannelsandbarbells #posteriorchain (at "Strong and Shapely Gym Inc.") https://www.instagram.com/p/B4XKn7vD33M/?igshid=zndja8xbt058

Here's part of last night's training. My body is still acclimating to my recent weight loss, as it's been a while since I've had to use my #foreverbelt just to press 100lbs. But remember that if you're in the same situation, do not force your body to do anything it doesn't want to. Also included is my last #neutralgripdumbbellbenchpress set of 22.5lbsx4x12. I've found that this works my inner chest far better than flyes. But that's just me. Train in all ways to find what works for you. Train for #strength , train for #hypertrophy, train for #balance. #unitedinstrength #igfitness #igpowerlifting #nasm #powerbodybuilding #powerlifting #nasmcpt #nasmcertified #iamacpt #letstraintogether #trainerize #certifiedpersonaltrainer #overheadpress #legionathletics #strongandshapelygym #legionpulse #beyond531 #jimwendler @nasm_fitness @trainerize @legionath (at "Strong and Shapely Gym Inc.") https://www.instagram.com/p/Bxwxobbj_jl/?igshid=x564patms5cl

I think it's extremely lame that I can't use the widescreen option when including more than video in a single post. Anyway, here's my latest #deadlift workout. 275, 315 and 350, all for 5. First two sets are beltless. Wanted to do this tomorrow but @dharmfx will be running her first half marathon tomorrow so I wouldn't be around. But feel.free to wish her luck tomorrow! #unitedinstrength #powerlifting #meetprep #rpspowerlifting #rpsjerseyrumble2017 #glutes #05202017 #blinkfitness #rt46 #strong #strength #lowerback #posteriorchain #hamstrings #igfitness #igpowerlifting #njpowerlifting #northjersey #eastcoastpowerlifting #nj #newjersey #clifton #cellucorc4 #metabolicnutrition #reebok #inzerbelt #foreverbelt (at Blink Fitness Clifton)

Not the greatest #shoulderday today, hitting a 199lb #overheadpress for 3, less than I had hoped for. Also, my wrist look bent back but I assure you they aren't. #strengthenandconquer #powerlifting #triceps #blinkfitness #nj #northjersey #clifton #newjersey #meetprep #rpsjerseyrumble2017 #strong #strength #inzerbelt #igfitness #igpowerlifting #foreverbelt #cptintraining #nasm #531 #nationalacademyofsportsmedicine #ificandoitsocanyou (at Blink Fitness Clifton)
