Went to a commerical gym for the first time in 8 years today to help Nick use the monolift and get ready for his meet Dec 10. I also had to try the monolift as well so I guess I squatted again. Actuallyit was very cool to use the rack as I havent had the chance since my meet in 1997 when not being familiar with it cost me my last shot at a 600 # squat.
I can tell though just how much it would help me as you can really lock into position and not budge through out the whole movment. Nick said he's never seen me squat so square. But I can also that training the squat again for real is just not in the cards. Just had to play abit a gain I guess.

various hammer strength machines. I like these. no shoulder pain at all. incline presses and pushdowns for sets and reps.
datsit. I might just get a membership at Golds and see what happens.
"And in those simple beautiful movements I remembered what was really important in training; that consistency trumps intensity; all the time. That intensity is born from consistency. That one cannot force it, one has to lay in wait for it, patiently, instinctively, calmly and be ready to grab it when Grace lays it down in front of you."
