Good job JD. I know how losing strength sucks... I'm trying to get back to where I was with my legs. Was doing like 315 on front squats for 3 reps now after overuse of my knees and a back injury sadly 225 x 6 is the best so far. tomorrow though I'm giving 275 a shot

Just feels good to get close to where I was. I shattered my patella 13 months ago, was on bed rest for 4 months, and been rehabbing with a PT for 6, and got the green light to start lifting just 2 1/2 months ago.

I'm only weighing in at about 185 lbs atm, heh. Under 9% bf.

Thanks for making me feel inadequate for my size haha jk. That's impressive strength for your size dude. If I was down to 9% BF I'd probably be around 190. I'm at about 215 right now.

[JDMSilviaSpecR]

where the pics slut??

Waiting for the charger to my digi cam to come through the mail. Got that sh*t for cheap on ebay and it's coming in from Thailand, so who knows when thats going to get here.

And im not eligable for an upgrade on my cell phone until this coming March so I'm rocking a POS old school chocolate.

I don't think any of you guys saw this last night. If God played the guitar he would take a righty guitar string it upside down and play with is eyes close (wait till the 2 minute mark). RIP to Mitch Mitchell, hendrix's drummer

This time around, it's not as much as about getting the size as it is about getting strength and definition.

Good call. I've completely flipped my approach around aswell. I'm now going for strength and letting the size come with it. I find when I focus more on size and somewhat ingore strength gains I plateau stupidly easily and the gains stop.


CAN YOU DIG IT

Same here bro, I CAN DIG IT IF I DON'T GET SHOT BY FRIENDLY FIRE

I only gain size with my bodyparts by gaining strength. Finding that out with my calves too especially. Having to take the smith machine and load it up to start doing calve raises then load 5-900lbs on the leg press for calve presses. I know this is going to really really help them

[Chode Logan]

Hendrix is classic, I would say god is a bit far fetched though

yeah my calves really started blowing up when I began hitting 800+ pounds on the leg press-calf raise.

[Dukkit]

i got gas

[Dukkit]

calves??

shit! i forgot they are a muscle also!!

I don't know man, everyone contributes they're own style and paints their own part of the picture. In my opinion guitar is FAR too subjective and artistic to define one clear "best". A lot of the guys who have the most physical talent make some of the least enjoyable music to my ears, so it's really hard to say.

Hendrix definitely changed rock music, so I thank him for that. He's the equivelent to Arnold in that respect, he was a hero at the time and no one could touch him. But today probably wouldn't place in a pro show.

[AnimalGear]

dirty, dirty whores

[Ernst]

How many guitarists does it take to change a light bulb?

[Ernst]

100: 1 to do it and 99 to say that they could have done it better.

well said Chode Lick...

IMO I say Hendrix, Page, Clapton, Van Halen. Those are my boys.

Haha exactly. We're a dirty breed.

I completely agree with everything you just said except the last part. I don't see any good guitarist or rock music that is coming out that holds a candle to the likes of jimi, bob dylan, the rolling stones, etc. Shit is all emo whiny stuff. At least thats all I hear. the 90's alternative rock with STP, Nirvana was great but I haven't heard ANYTHING new that is even worth a damn. I know there are a few "freaks" out there but they don't put out enough to even bother with

[Dukkit]

new phone just got delivered to my house

45 mins and im off work!!

[peachfuzz]

Good thing I just noticed Reed's custom title. Where the hell have I been?

[JDMSilviaSpecR]

ok, i need to stop playing poker and trolling these boards and seriously start writing my paper, lol.

[Ernst]

I'm a drummer... I probably couldn't carry a tune on a harmonica much less a guitar.

[JDMSilviaSpecR]

Anyone know of any good "scholarly journal" websites I can use for my paper?

[Ernst]

ok, i need to stop playing poker and trolling these boards and seriously start writing my paper, lol.

Now it's due in 5 hours?

Dragonforce?....Buckethead?

[Chode Logan]

Yeah exactly, bout how can you judge? Out of the 4 you listed, Van Halen completely destroys the other 3 at raw guitar talent and speed, fluidity, dexterity etc. But that doesn't mean you prefer him to the others. For instance, Page wrote some of the most classic riffs of all time and really took it to the next level in songwriting....but listen to his live stuff and the man was SLOPPY as could be.

I have a much more modern taste in music and guitar playing, I throw infinite respect to the classics who paved the way though.

[Reed]

Thats right where the hell have you been. Hows the cycle going?? Your shit hasn't burned down yet

[JDMSilviaSpecR]

3 Hours and 42 minutes. As long as I get a C on the paper I maintain my A in the class.

[Ernst]

I always do it right before it's due too.

[Ernst]

Sorry I was late professor, I got stuck in traffic... Really means: sorry, spell check froze.

Well again, it's musical taste. Your ears dig the old blues-influenced jams. That's cool. don't get me wrong, the shit on the radio is PURE SHIT. But these days you just gotta dig deeper. I'm much more into the heavy side of music, the musicality, skill, and intensity is pretty much something I can't get listening to any other genre. That being said I listen to jazz, classical, anything but hip hop and country.

Talking about guitar players with skill and good bands to listen to are 2 very different stories. Steve Vai, for instance, is probably in the top 3 most talented guitar players to ever live. But you will never ever catch me sitting around listening to a Vai album.

[Chode Logan]

Dragonforce?....Buckethead?

Dragonforce makes me laugh like a school girl, cheesiest music to ever be produced. Buckethead is absolutely amazing though.
