Super User Raider Nation Fisher Posted July 28, 2014 Super User Posted July 28, 2014 I don't care if I catch flak or not. It's my body to abuse. New personal best leg press last night. 1850 POUNDS!!!! 4 REPS! Belted my back and banded my knees. I can't describe the rush I got from that! Now I'm shooting for 2000 by December. Personal Best on power cleans set last night too. 450!!! Belted back and strapped wrist. I am a dang BEAST! On the less heavy front. I've started conditioning and agility drills today. For being 305 I am quite agile. I think I'm gonna add yoga to my routine too. That junk is fun also. Quote
Super User SoFlaBassAddict Posted July 28, 2014 Super User Posted July 28, 2014 Good stuff right there. 2k is certainly achievable by December. 1 Quote
Super User Catch and Grease Posted July 28, 2014 Super User Posted July 28, 2014 Leg press is more like let's see who can move the most weight in 1000lb increments haha not very "impressive" not really trying to act snobby or such its just when I see someone leg press a lot its not a huge interest to me... Now power cleans! Thats a awesome movement! I'm not very strong because I wrestle in the 128 and 132 weight classes haha I don't strength train anymore I only do cardio and conditioning really but the most I power cleaned was 180 and I was very proud Quote

You gotta remember though I hurt myself pretty bad over a year and a half ago doing 1600lbs. So a 250lb gain is awesome to me. 1 Quote
Super User flyfisher Posted July 28, 2014 Super User Posted July 28, 2014 I figured that would be a breeze since don't you pretty much leg press that every time you get up from a chair?? 3 Quote

Josh Smith Posted July 28, 2014 Posted July 28, 2014 Well, I'll not give you flak. I'll just tell you this: When I was in high school, the gym class was playing with weights. The leg press was set up and contests were held. I won, though it really was close. Thing is, I felt something "give" in my right knee. The next day it was swelled as big as my thigh. I got some steroids for it and it healed but was never the same. A couple years later in martial arts, I got to be the dummy on which a knew guy was practicing joint locks. I did volunteer, but my teacher had been sort of hoping I would because I was incredibly flexible. Well, nothing hurt, during the leg lock, but the student torqued my leg a bit more and I felt a "snap snap snap" down my leg, including that same knee. Well, now I'm 36 and fat. I can run, but it's hard on that knee. When I do run, I prefer it to be in the woods, carrying a rifle. The rifle helps balance and the ground is soft. I can jump over downed trees and across the creek and not hurt too bad. Running on roads is just too hard. It hurts that knee. I'm sure I'm facing a rebuild some day. I'm 36. Like I said, be careful. I'm not giving you flak, as I also said. I'm just sayin' be careful, man. Josh Quote
Super User Catch and Grease Posted July 28, 2014 Super User Posted July 28, 2014 Lol awhile back I was sparring with some dude and he put me in a arm bar, he was new so I didn't want to look like a loser getting beat by this newbie, I didn't tap and SNAP CRACKLE POP and the back of my hand is touching my triceps... Just kidding it wasn't that bad but in did break my elbow or something like that... And now I can't straighten my left arm out all the way... Hey man if you get on runners world.com and join the forums and read up you could start running on roads and build your strength back up! Its the bass resource of running lol Quote
