OMG U ACTUALLY DO IT?

well,for sit ups, i substituted it with far more interesting exercises, for example:

- Hanging leg lifts
- Horizontal leg lifts
- Heavy weighted leg lifts
- The Flag (Bruce Lee style, 3 reps max!)
- Upside down chin ups

I reasoned, that because abs are fast twitch muscles, burn them with heavy reps with low reps. Kill em off quick. It worked for me, I feel.

For the back, I switched to;

- Good mornings
- SLDL
- Glute Ham Raises
- Power clean

Hyperextensions are still very important I feel, that's why I do them, but I alternate between the others.

u mean heavy weights with lor reps?

i've been doing SLDL all the time i realised, when i go heavy. i cant seem to do conventional DL with heavy weigths. very weird heh i think i'll sub those sit ups out with something else lol

i'm cool with hypers. how many reps do u do? i usually do 8-10 only

heavy weights with low reps

i do hypers with 135lbs for about 4-6 reps. Usually 5, depends on the mood i suppose.

how do u hug 135 lbs? 3 plates of 45lbs leh.

WHT?
nobody straps 135lbs like that.
We use oly bars with 45lbs plates la...

doing hypers? u mean good mornings or wat?

good mornings at 185lbs
hypers at 135

how u do hypers with barbell on your back? or u have some one put it on for u?

i only said your chest developed way more than mine..
but i'm growing on lats...

i have always said that, i never btich about me not growing.

conclusion: genetics.

We have a rack like this.
I'll usually power clean the weights to my shoulder, then press it to the back, walk to the bench, and just do hyperextensions.

susah nyer
DL 237 today! wuuahh. dono can pull onot

When you have a goal in mind, you don't care how hard it's gonna take. YOu just do what it takes, to achieve it.
At least that's always been the case for me.
Want something, work hard. Get it easy, ain't no satisfaction.

You know how I do a PR? I remind myself, "Titania" of bb.com deadlifts 407lbs at 148LBS. A woman. I remind myself, 18 year olds can deadlift 607LBS, world record suited nevertheless. And I remind myself, lifting weights off the floor, is a tonne easier than studying for business mathematics, and if I can ace that subject, I can pull a PR.
