Great job sir!
@Killa i couldn't ... By: michaelzwarszawy. on 26 Feb 12, 19:23:16 @Killa i couldn't do the other exercises such? as front squats anymore because my body was just too drained, i felt it.but i simply couldn't tell the difference between simply being a whimp, and my body telling me that it really cannot handle so much stress so often.i'm fine though, its a very minor thing. lesson learned:1-3 rep maxes should never be done more than once a week, as it's really taxing on the nervous system.i did get a lot stronger though, from 500x4 in august to 500x8 in december.
i've been punishing ... By: michaelzwarszawy. on 26 Feb 12, 19:19:36 i've been punishing my body pretty badly about 3 months leading up to the injury. i've been doing 3 rep maxes on the deadlift twice a week for about 10 weeks straight. 3 or 2 or 1 rep maxes should be? done NO MORE than ONCE a week. i would do really heavy squatting on Tuesdays followed by really heavy deadlifts right after, then Fridays again really heavy deadlifts. been noticing after about 6 weeks that i was more drained than usual after deadlift
You're a young guy ... By: KillaCommie4Mommy. on 26 Feb 12, 15:52:52 You're a young guy and no doubt, very strong... Take it from me though.... I'm 47... been working out since I was probably 16.... I've had 4 hernia surgeries... shoulder issues and multiple? bouts with tendinitis. The muscle you're putting on feels great I'm sure... but before you know it, you'll be 47 too... Hopefully you've got better genetics than me... My body just wasn't made for that kind of punishment.... lol
nope,? none. just ... By: michaelzwarszawy. on 24 Feb 12, 07:56:09 nope,? none. just 120lbs of sand-filled weights lol
thanks dude, yeah ... By: michaelzwarszawy. on 24 Feb 12, 05:29:46 thanks dude, yeah it? sucks. every serious athlete gets injured, regardless of the sport they're in (unless it's some gayass shit like curling). just a bump in the road ahead.
I feel your pain ... By: talder123. on 24 Feb 12, 05:01:28 I feel your pain man. I hurt my lower back too from overtraining back in december and it still hurts. I can't squat or deadlift either nor have I been able to since. Hope your back? heals up man. And mine too.
why the human body ... By: sdfefde. on 25 Apr 12, 18:20:19 why the human body gets weak off what trained hard to achieve, in such short? time ? -.-
yeah bro,really ... By: smnbajwa. on 09 Mar 12, 17:59:24 yeah bro,really nice,i am from askscooby forums as well.
i would like to deadlift heavy like you some day.? I am 5'10", how much should i weigh ideally?
thanks. my form ... By: michaelzwarszawy. on 11 Feb 12, 06:12:52 thanks. my form was horrible though, when i come back from this injury,? i will without a doubt lift with a straight back.
Get? your money!! ... By: Mrscotthugcookie. on 10 Feb 12, 00:15:03 Get? your money!! Good lift!
damn man, sorry to ... By: leche1dura. on 06 Feb 12, 02:03:54 damn man, sorry to hear that.? How did you strain your lower back? Also, the reason I asked for your height was that the video made you look like 5'4'' so I was wondering. guess you just have short limbs.
i'm? 5'8". right ... By: michaelzwarszawy. on 06 Feb 12, 01:48:55 i'm? 5'8". right now i'm dealing with a lower back strain, and haven't been able to pull in 6 weeks. i'll be weak as shit when i come back, but i've gone through this before, so it'll probably take a few months to regain my strength.
damn. I'm hoping to ... By: leche1dura. on 06 Feb 12, 01:41:10 damn. I'm hoping to hit 565 in 4 weeks and you just tripled it at 5lbs lighter? than me. How tall are you?

i actually did do ... By: michaelzwarszawy. on 17 Dec 11, 19:50:34 i actually did do martial arts (judo and karate) for a long time, but i was never good at it. i've always wanted to lift massive weights, so i found powerbuilding (powerlifting and bodybuilding) to be my thing. i should start competing at powerlifting meets soon, lol. i'm really hoping? to deadlift 800lbs one day, totally drug and pro-hormone free.
For your weight, ... By: KillaCommie4Mommy. on 17 Dec 11, 18:24:09 For your weight, you're? extremely STRONG.... You should be fighting in mixed martial arts.... Learn some Jujitsu if you don't already know it.

Don't look muscled ... By: MarkMuses. on 06 Dec 11, 21:18:16 Don't look muscled enough to me for such a massive lift. Well impressed. I guess a big part? of it is in technique and timing then. Still, bigger muscles than mine by the way.
When you first ... By: FaggotStrike502. on 12 Nov 11, 09:20:41 When you first started lifting in a public gym, were you ashamed because of the people staring at you? This is how I? feel.

You have a strong ... By: MisterFunctional. on 22 Dec 11, 17:22:00 You have a strong lower back. You can def see it takes over? in the squat. That's a lot of weight for your bodyweight. Good job!

It takes a bit longer to build mass and strength the natural way but its a heck of a lot healthier and you can keep in to shape for decade after decade into your 70's. You are a? poster boy for natural!

Wow Mike you are ... By: TheBlazingOne. on 31 Dec 10, 21:45:40 Wow Mike you are insanely strong. 485 raw is already? huge, but for 4 reps is just insane. And your only 19! Keep up the awesome work man.
