Not offended PTC, you're entirely right, Strongman is waaaaaaaay out of my league. I meant something like BATB - so September 2010 is the next one? Coolies
everyone warms up. there is a seperate bar for warm ups which everyone shares, when your ready and warmed up you attempt the 1RM so really you dont just do the 1RM you are also doing regular sets, i know i was was warming up to about 9-95% of my 1RM starting at around 5 reps down to a few singles so it became a day long session really
yeah something like that but because everyone is sharing the warm up bar you have to keep an eye on the weight going up on it and jump in for a few sets when you have to. if you turn your back for a bit the bar might jump from 40kg to 100kg
Depends on the lift as well Josh. I have 4 Olympic bars, but only 2 benches and squat racks. For cleans and DL, we habve plenty of bars.
By AD10, we will have a power rack and at least another bar. So 3 squat racks and 3 bench presses, as well as 5 Olympic bars, plenty of warm ups available. Nobody lifts until they are ready, regardless of how long it takes.
