Always nice to rediscover a exercise again. Plus kickin ass on it always helps.
Congrats on the mild stone on starting the DVD. I hope it all goes smooth and you blow our minds.

That is awesome, can't wait to see this DVD!!

Yeah, I love deadlifts too. I used to do them 'sumo' style, but switched up to regular style a couple years ago. Made my squats feel more powerful out of the hole and they really added some thickness to my hams.

Speaking of legs, doing them tomorrow, thanks for the continual motivation Layne!

come on bro... give some credit. we were in the clean room at ergopharm... hence we had to wear caps. LOL you think we did that for the look?

I thought you guys were trying to start a new fashion craze..LOL Who's idea was that?

1)man i am already psyched to see this dvd, do you know when the release is and where can we get it?
2)i think i am going to do a show next year, when you are deep in your diet do you still train everything 2 a week or move to once a week since your carbs are reduced?

[Supernothing]

Haha i feel ya Layne - yesterday i did such an intense HIIT cardio session on the soccer field that my ribs hurt today. When i flex my abs or touch my ribs, i feeel them... first for everything have a feeling that my quads will grow a couple inches just from watching that leg day portion of the DVD... cant wait

495 is so much weight. how did u build up to that? slow increases in weight and would u sometimes increase by as much as like 30 pounds between sessions?

also i read ur statement about animal protein and liver effect...are eggs included as animal protein? or only meats? cos i sometimes have eggs in two meals plus two meat meals .

thanks layne.

i wouldn't worry about your liver.

i didn't really work up to 495... i hadn't done deads in 6 months and I just decided to do it yesterdayl... or were you asking how did i warm up to it?

[SONOFMIKEMENTZER]

cool lol.

pretty much i was asking, when u began u obviously lifted less and had to build up to lifting such a large weight...im curious as to how long it took u to get to such a weight, and the process of getting there ( eg- how big were ur leaps in increased poundage).

I aim to deadlift alot of weight and im curious as to how u got there?

I am at 220 pound deads but i lift slow and controlled not explosive so my increases are small. would love to increase alot but scared to injure myself. im sure whichever approach u took has worked well.

also, thanks for liver info. (please also check my next post about ketogenic diet, it is very interesting statement from a great bodybuilder and nutritionist i know)

[SONOFMIKEMENTZER]

This person from my gym had a very similar opinion such as yourself towards ketogenic diet. Here is the info behind what he said...curious as to ur opinion:

I asked a very knowledgeable nutritionist and bodybuilder I know (not some retard im talking experienced and with a PRO-CARD worthy physique and prepared many for contests with success) and he said about ketogenic diet the problem is when protein is over 20 % on ketogenic diet ur body performs process of glucogenesis.

Ur opinion on this? does this ruin the precepts of the diet, or is the glucogenesis ok?

[irvston]
