Observations
Observations over the past month:
1.) I had two people compete in this past weekend’s powerlifting meet in Burlington, VT in the 100% RAW Federation. Elaine Neal and Kim Furlong both did phenomenally! Both women set world records in the deadlift, with Elaine “The Tank” Neal just missing 318 and Kim pulling an easy 285. There were three other women competing in this competition and the weird thing was that even though Kim and Elaine BURIED everyone else in the DL, they themselves got owned in the Bench Press.
It led me to two conclusions:
1. The reason why our pulls are so much better than everyone else’s is due to the back work we do.
2. Doing a cycle of just upper body push work can’t be as bad for you as I once thought. If doing all pushing work were as bad as I thought, then everyone there would have had serious shoulder impingements.
2.) If your military press goes up, your raw bench press will go up.
3.) I need to work in more hoizontal pulling exercises.
4.) I recently just bought a house and I realized that I have a lot of shit. I mean A LOT. Too much shit in fact. I think everyone should move every year so that they have to get rid of their stuff and buy new stuff. This will stimulate the economy and help people get rid of their crap, thus in turn pushing out old crap by way of yard sales.
That is all.
