But mainly the curls.

Thanks jaunty. Going to curl even more the coming weeks.

60kg curl would be pretty awesome.

My curl is really being held back my a sticking point 3/4 of the way up. Obscure Terror recommended rack curls to help get past the sticking point, I am thinking maybe band curls. Or maybe just kill it with volume, and move to my world famous version of Smolov Jr for curls.

Those are some good suggestions, thanks. You can see me stalling at the same point in the video. I failed at the sticking point two times before that.

I guess another possibility is speed curls... train that RFD so you can come at that sticking point faster. Good job there are so many options for serious lifters.

 

[CRZA]

Yeah. I guess that would work. But with speed work, you have to go fast.
And we all know if you want to get jacked, you need to slow down the eccentric

I just finished Periodization Training for Sports by Bompa and I completely forgot about isometric curl holds. Set the safeties right at your sticking point and curl off the pins into the safeties, holding for 3-10s maximum contraction.

Obviously you need to do this for varying heights to maintain even strength development across the entire ROM. And those idiots who use the curl racks for squats will have to wait while you finish your sets.

I train at home, so Im the only one squatting in the curl rack.
Good suggestion.

Damn, yes, I forgot about those. Keith Wassung recommended that for getting past a press sticking point.

Sheiko called for 3 singles at 130. I planned on doing a triple. When I unracked the weight felt very light. Lost my focus a bit on the 3rd rep, and the 4th one was bad and asymmetrical. If I was prepared for 5 reps, I think I would of got it. Either way, previous rep pr was 120x5, so this is good.
Easy squats. Hard 110 reps on the bench

Shieeet.

Your bench has really improved. 4th rep didn't even look that hard.

Congrats, C.
