As I said earlier, today I did: Squat 340 5x5, extra credit squats 435 x 2 Overhead press 130 5x5 Deadlift 345 3x5, extra credit deadlifts 365 x 5 Assisted pullups and dips Ran 6 miles. Next Wednesday, the run goes up to 7 miles. That's right, bitches, I lift heavy shit (getting closer to where I was pre-surgery), and then follow it up with a long run right after. Where is your gym god now? Assisted pull-ups... We got a nancy boy. |

I had small intestine filling my ball sack every time I stood up. I also use assistance bands. Something about hanging from my arms and putting no pressure on my feet, puts a ton of strain on my core. This gave me that annoying pinch feeling from my hernia telling me... Bro, ... no! With a band putting a little up pressure from under my knee going into my hips, takes the strain away and I have no pain. I started with a green, and now use a purple. 8 reps a set. I'll do 2-4 sets depending on how my lifts went that day. After doing pull ups for a while now, I can get a few out with no bands or pain. But I've got a decade more healing time than shade does. Dude squats 435 lbs after a 3x5 of 345 lbs... Gets called Nancy boy by a Texan for using bands in in pull-ups. Typical GD. |

FWIW we lift the same weight and have basically the same routine besides the running. Fuck that noise... I'll take 20 mins of HIIT. |

So, funny story.
Was thinking back on my time in the Marines, where every. single. day. was ridiculous amounts of running and body weight exercise. Unless a leader was a gymrat, no one went to the gym for PT, only people on their off time. Net result... guys who just did PT were fit, had low bodyfat %, but were not "ripped". The guys that went to the gym? Ripped. |

One step further, I've done mountain warfare training 3 times, and some pretty decent hikes on the civilian side. I've done these both as a lighter runner, and as a heavier lifter. Lifter wins every single fucking time. More muscle on the shoulders makes packs more comfortable, stronger back prevents fatigue, strong legs gets you up the mountain. Plus (just IMO) I look a lot better now with more muscle than I did thinner. |

Why is anyone comparing body builders? They're not necessarily strong or in shape. Muscles without strength is like wearing a strap on. How do you get muscles that aren't strong? That part in bold...you might want to rethink that statement. This video is just one demonstration of "strength" from a bodybuilder. Check out some of the workout vids for Ronnie Coleman...STRONG AS FUCK! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sJjSP2fqFxk Those comments generally come from those who know nothing about fitness and Have never been to a gym. I think of them like anti gunners who no nothing about guns. To be fair to the football player in that video though he obviously had a lot more distance to move the weight and didn't have quite as much "supplements"in his body

Maybe the ideal level of physical fitness is subjective ? I agree. That's why these threads are silly. The guys who win the Crossfit games aren't going to win American Ninja Warrior. The inverse is also true. Army Rangers aren't going to win powerlifting competitions and power lifters aren't going to do well on a 20 mile hump. To each his own, YMMV, and all that. |

BTW, Just curious, but.... Are you thinking you're gonna make it to 'superhuman' status or something ? It is subjective because everyone's goals are different. I didn't see that question but there's the answer. Since I'm not playing SEAL I'll answer your second question as: no? I am not seeing SEALS doing what it takes to significantly over-develop their muscles like the monster muscle-head's I see at the gym. Why did you make the statement which I italicized? Are you one of the gym rats who strive for 'bigger. Bigger. BIGGER' ? And eat thousands and thousands of calories each day, along with adding more, and More, and MORE weights in order to achieve that status ? Edited to clean up stuff. |

What's the comparison for? One group is trained for football, the other to kill. Two completely different areas of expertise. FB players would smoke check the SEALs's asses on the grass and the SEALs would smoke check their asses on the battlefield. Being a SEAL doesn't make someone a superhuman Don't 'roid-rage' on me bro... Keeping it simple, here is the simple question again: Maybe the ideal level of physical fitness is subjective ?

You don't have to be huge to be strong either you know. You don't have to be an "overdeveloped musclehead" to get strong as hell, and still be quick and athletic. |

I agree. That's why these threads are silly. The guys who win the Crossfit games aren't going to win American Ninja Warrior. The inverse is also true. Army Rangers aren't going to win powerlifting competitions and power lifters aren't going to do well on a 20 mile hump. To each his own, YMMV, and all that. Quote HistoryQuoted:

I dont know about that first part there, my guess is that crossfit games athletes are much closer to ANW types than any of the other pairs you listed there. |

I don't hate.
I have seen (both here and at the gym) the monster muscle heads be very quick to ridicule those who aren't interested in getting bigger, Bigger, BIGGER. No, not EVERY monster muscle head demonstrates this type of 'roid rage', but the majority I have seen sure do. The link in my earlier post shows SEAL sized men to be able to have enough strength to hump - for extended distances - what they need to complete missions. And it demonstrates that monster muscle sized men aren't making the cut. |

There's a lot just looking to get stronger and the training reflects that. |

The girls in Crossfit weigh what the top Ninja Warriors weigh. Both groups are elite, but in totally different ways. One group has mastered heavy weights and one group has mastered Bodyweight. Both groups are "ripped." |
