[QUOTE="adulbrich, post: 8500100, member: 661255"] I don't lift as much as I used to, but I'd like to get back into it. What kind of setup do you guys have? [IMG]http://i1028.photobucket.com/albums/y343/aulbrich16/IMG_20160503_212411_868_zpsmpdqjal5.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i1028.photobucket.com/albums/y343/aulbrich16/IMG_20160503_212357_432_zpszaq6m3kh.jpg[/IMG] I've got a bunch of log chains, lol. I make a lot of jokes with my friends about doing kinky stuff [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif[/IMG] The chains serve a few purposes. With bench, squat, deadlift, ect. they help with lockout training. The last little bit is more difficult. The lower you go, the more chain is on the ground, and therefore the less heavy the weight is. As you go back up, the weight gradually increases as the chain links are lifted off the ground. When I start to plateau with a workout, I add chains to make it more dynamic. Also, they help build stabilizer muscles. They're hard to keep steady and they force you to go through the motions slower sometimes. [IMG]http://i1028.photobucket.com/albums/y343/aulbrich16/IMG_20160503_212423_200_zpssrqg7awp.jpg[/IMG] I've got: A power cage Flat bech Incline/decline bench 45 pound Olympic bar Hex deadlift bar Z-bar for curling T-bar for skull-crushers and hammer-curls Olympic dumbells, which are probably the most versatile piece of equipment I have. Fixed weight dumbells Preacher-curl bench 500 pounds of cast iron Olympic plates Elastic bands Lots of chains Ab roller Jump rope Treadmill Usually, I do 5 sets of 5 reps for lifts, going up 5 pounds each set. Used to take pre-workout and protein shakes, but don't anymore. Now I just lift at school during "strength training" gym class. My max bench is now 225 Incline is 215 (only got 210 last week though) [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif[/IMG] Deadlift is 365 Fastest 100 this year was 11.01 Fastest mile was a 5:45 Most pull-ups I've ever done in a row was 16 Most push ups was 65 legit ones in one minute, for a marine challenge at our school. I won [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
