Good stuff, Greg. :tu

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda and Icehog3 II
 

What's your guys thought on the shoes designed for squats? Thinking as I go up in weight on those might be worth picking up a pair.

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda and Icehog3 II
 

I've got legs, and I know how to abuse them.

Leg press
Weighted box step ups
Leg extensions
Hamstring curls
Hip adductors
Hip abductors
Calf raises
Stair climber

My legs were quivering while trying to take a piss afterwards. Lol.

Good work today!

I use adidas adipower. They are olympic lifting shoes. Only use them for squats.

But to be honest chucks work fine too. Anything that are flat. No running shoes or shoes with lots of ridges on the bottom.

Took today off to spend time with the family.

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda and Icehog3 II
 

Thanks Huy. I'm going to pick up a set of something.

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda and Icehog3 II
 

Found a 30% off coupon on Groupon. Got a pair of Adidas PowerLift 3.1's coming. $68 shipped.

seated bb curls
seated bent arm raises

I walked up Powell St from Union Square, all the way up to the Fairmont Hotel, to a damn cigar shop that was closed.

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda and Icehog3 II
 

No weights today. Started training for a sprint duathlon. Ran 1.5 miles, biked 6, ran 1 mile. So basically half a sprint.

Lots more crutch assisted stair "dips" today. :r

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda and Icehog3 II
 

Whenever I’m on crutches, seems like every few years :r, scares the poop outta me. I just keep imagining that I’m going to a header from the top of stairs :tf

So be careful on those stairs.

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda and Icehog3 II
 

I have some nervous moments, especially going up, Greg. Feel like if I don't lean overly forward, I'm gonna fall back. Been on them three weeks now without a spill, hope to keep my record perfect. :r

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda and Icehog3 II
 

Three weeks already Tom? How much longer do you think you'll need them?

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda and Icehog3 II
 

The surgery was 2 weeks ago, and the doc said no weight bearing for at least 6-8 weeks. He likes the way it's healing so far though, so I am praying for the 6, Bob. :D
