Notes - Not 100% at ALL. Took a shit like 7 times today (literally) thanks to two giant plates of stir fry last night. I shoulda known better. Then I was bloated and gassy all day. Almost lost my lunch after the stiff legs. I need to be hitting 15 reps on these bastards in the next few weeks. I think that's possible on a good night, as is 605x5.

I hear you on the food that causes gas causes tougher gym time.
ReplyDeleteDid you see Buckethead yet?
Yes. It was a great show.
ReplyDeleteCool! Did he play with a backing band? When I saw him he just played over recordings.
ReplyDeleteYeah he had a drummer and bassist. But they sounded like 20 guys playing. It was very freakin cool.
ReplyDeleteVery cool. I was disappointed when I saw him b/c there was no band so it lacked a lot of the vibe you are supposed to get at a live show. If he is touring with other players I will catch him this time for sure then.
ReplyDeletePaul I can't remember if you've written about his elsewhere. What are your experiences and thoughts on ab work for dl and squat assistance?
ReplyDeleteAsh
I personally think it's overrated. No one squats or deads 600+ without having a strong midsection. I've spent plenty of time doing heavy ab work and didn't notice a single difference in my squat or dead. Nothing. Not compared to not doing it.
ReplyDeleteI also still do a lot of boxing and kick boxing however, and that involves a ton of hip rotation and gets the abs very involved. So maybe I don't see a difference because I already get a lot of ab work from that kind of exercise.
