Do you do any specific exercises to help keep your rotator cuff strong? I've started having a lot of pain with my left one, and I have a meet in less than a month with another one two weeks after that. I would appreciate any advice.

Hi fellow powerlifter!

Wow, I just read what you are going through. I really hope you have a speedy and safe recovery! Hang in there man!

What kind of warm-up do you do the day of the meet? If I am supposed to lift around noon, then when should I start my warm-ups? Thanks for the quick response to my last question.

What kind of chest routine do you use the month leading up to a competition? Also, how many days do you rest before the day of the competition? Some day I hope I can push what you can.

How do you run your cycle? I know you said triples, doubles, and singles but what progression? Like week 1 triples, week 2 doubles, etc..I am having trouble finding a good cycle. I'd appreciate it ranger.

Welcome back!

Hooah! Always glad to see more soldiers on the boards. Your stats are beastly- do you have any recommendations on balancing lower body workouts and improving the 2 mile run at the same time?

Apr 21, 2008 8:50am

What do you do for your rep progression? I did 5x5 last week, this week was planning on a 2rm, next 1rm, then a week of timed sets to mimic strongman competition events. What is your cycle on the big lifts?

Good work, Richard.

Understandable, I am interested in strongman style training and competing would involve both strength and endurance, just trying to figure out the best approach.

Apr 12, 2008 8:42am

How is your endurance strength though, as in doing bencg for 4 sets of 10? I used a program similar to that at one point and my strength definately improved, but when I went back to bodybuilding style movements I was weak.

Apr 11, 2008 9:38pm

Good stuff, mind if I add you man? You have some serious strength. What kind of program are you on?

Apr 11, 2008 5:05pm
