We're On To The Rams

I do mostly 12 oz. curls. It isn't heavy, but I do a lot of reps. Fortunately, I have a high metabolism. I wore 32" pants in college and I wear a 34" now.

Also, I hope BB sweeps the leg in this one.

I've been doing them for over 30 years and have a max of 515# at one point. Form is everything amigo.

Even if you have the form down...still one of the worst exercises for the back. Plenty of evidence available...

Body weight exercises are the safest...ask Herschel Walker.

 

[Big/Sky/Fly]

Really not true.

Low bar squats performed with poor form are certainly likely to lead to injury, but performed correctly they are fine. Other types of squats like high bar or front squats are definitely not a problem for the back.

In fact, more back injuries come from poor form deadlifts than squats, guaranteed. When deadlifting in conventional stance, it is insanely easy to develop bad habits by breaking form to essentially muscle up weight that you can't lift safely. When doing so, it's your lower back that gets shit on. Same thing with poor executed Romanian deadlifts or rows, but they can't be overloaded with as much weight.

Form is what matters. If you lift only what you can lift with proper form, you're unlikely to get injured. Done correctly with proper core bracing, these compounds lifts are safe and will make your back strong as ****.

Lifting with weights only gives you counterfeit muscles...with virtually no functional strength. Also, you end up with more injuries than doing body weight exercises.

I used to lift a lot when I was younger. I could bench over 400 lbs in my prime. Not that impressive, but, not too bad though either. I'm 6'2"...so, it's considered even better (you can usually lift more if you're short in nature).

I'll look for the links tomorrow...

Thanks. That is very kind of you. I may take you up on it. There is a trainer at my gym but I don't really like him. He is kind of aloof. Nice guy and all but does not seem really that engaged. He talked about free exercises and weights as a way to strengthen the core and balance but I am nervous about hurting myself. The gym does have a weighted chin up and dip machine which I love. That seems to have made a difference to my overall shape which has been great.

Yoga type movements help a lot...seriously.

I originally got tickets for the game . They were honoring 2001 pats at halftime. Now I could see history with brady breaking Manning record.

That will be a historic game to attend.

Not only should Brady break the record for wins but you get to watch the great Jeff Fisher coach a game. :tmack:

When asked what makes Tom Brady so special at age 39, the first two things Jeff Fisher mentioned were his experience and his... height. What a freaking idiot.

 

[INPatFan]

You hear them say it all the time after a win. Brady - "In the end, it came down to out-talling them." BB - "I was proud to see the team out-tall our opponent. We out-talled them in all three phases. It was a great example of complementary out-talling".

Yes. He mentioned that to me. I have never been a yoga person but I may give it a try. A couple of my friends have recently got certified as Yoga instructors.

Rams at Patriots — Jerome Boger's crew. Oh jeez. At least it's not Corrente's crew.

Nice.

They'll be handing out SB XXXVI replica mini banners which is great because it will complete my collection. They didn't make them for the '02 opening game, but did for the other 3 Super Bowls celebrations. Now I can complete my display.

This is what I'm referring to. The flags for 38, 39 and 49 were handed out at the following season's SB celebration opener. They never did it for 36 and I resorted to printing out a picture of the banner. Now I will have the real deal.

Those are pretty sweet. I have the banner I attached hanging in my basement, along with one for the Sox and one for the Celtics.

The last two times the Pats played against a Jeff Fisher led team the Pats outscored them 104-7.

Jeff Fisher praising the Patriots' running backs on a conference call. Says "Brandon" and "Danny" are playing well this season

These are two of the Fisheriest things ever, love them. ROFL

I loathe Boger...damn.

I hope I hear Rodney on FNIA Sunday night tearing "the 70s pornstache" a new one, again.

I really, really hate Fisher, run that mofo up.

When I heard that Demoff thing I lol ed. I mean what, the players and coaches were packing boxes and calling utilities and writing out change of address cards?

I'm honestly starting to believe (/tinfoil hatted...maybe) that Kroenke was forced to accept the Fish as HC as recompense for being the owner allowed to move to LA/the stadium he wanted etc. Fish has to have a bunch of owner cronies in his pocket after his longtime membership on the comp committee (which will likely resume next year). And who the hell would hire him again unless there was a crony reason??? Ain't like he's bargain basement salary wise.

Fisher was talking about Dola...he played for the Rams...

Fisher was talking about Dola...he played for the Rams...

This is what he said:

"I’ve been impressed with Brandon and what he’s done out of the backfield. You’ve got to deal with him, in addition to Danny."

Who the **** is Brandon? BOLDEN? lololol. So he begins with a specific reference to the backfield (and a STer who isn't even an RB this year), then says 'in addition' to Danny. Unless he'd specifically mentioned Amendola in a comment right before, the reference to Danny seems to imply he's also playing from the backfield.

Moreover, Amendola is great but if he's who Fisher is focused on stopping then he's already lost this game.

So the fact that he reads random opponent names off of cue cards is his defense?
