I always felt better doing cardio in the morning and doing weight training in the afternoon. I agree that conditioning always makes the weight training even better.
What was your experience with powerbuliding type training? I used to train like 2x a day by combining 1 lifting session + 1BB session. It made me stronger and bigger, but usually i felt beat up throughout the day..
Getting bigger and stronger at the same time is harder for tall guy..

(2) what kind of cambered bar did you use? I benched with a “football bar” once, which I think is similar but not quite the same, and was too uncoordinated to balance it properly when it got heavy. Don’t hurt myself, but it felt weird. Was not a fan.

Re: Death can have me when it has earned me
Further question on the cambered bar: what did you mean by, “I couldn't "cheat" the bar since it had to touch my sternum for the rep to count”? Were you not touching with a standard barbell?

Re: Death can have me when it has earned me
I'm very glad to hear that sir So, I own a Strength Shop Cambered Bar, with 15cm additional ROM in the centre of the bar while the the rest of the bar is uniformly straight like your standard bar. It's lovely and currently sits in my garage gym but it's too cold to train in there in the morning! I'm considering getting another one for the main gym I frequent. The football bar is a bit tricky to use, I've got Rogue's original MG-1 that shipped without knurling... I don't use it fraction as much for very similar reasons. The neutral grip factor is nice, but balancing became disproportionately more of a focus than completing a rep as the load got heavy. It put my triceps through a lot of work but I can achieve that without the added hassle with Dips.hector wrote: ↑Thu Nov 30, 2023 4:31 pm(1) I laugh every time I read your log title.

Re: Death can have me when it has earned me
In hindsight, I didn't explain that very well. I just mean that I can't shorten the range of motion by either widening my grip (at least definitely not in the same way - it's an extra 15cm I have to account for), or configuring my body to achieve the same, or both. I can't either touch and go. The descent takes a bit longer and and I'm more cognisant of the precarious position I'm in with the additional stretch on both the muscle and the joint, so I instinctively pause each rep when I touch my sternum.

Admittedly, I'm about an hour away from New Orleans, and haven't been down there in a few years. But yeah, the only thing that could be missing might be accents.
And (an early) happy birthday as well.

It really is amazing food It's always packed and there's always a bit of queuing involved. It is most certainly worth waiting in line for. And thank you!
