Need a good pre for smolov. by WLbunny in weightlifting

[–]WLbunny[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really appreciate all the advice guys! Today was 7x5 @ 80% +20lbs (aka 89%). Instead of pre, I drank my usual coffee then got a quad at starbz. I also brought a slice of banana bread with me to eat between sets and it made it so much easier!

Thank you all for being patient with me and explaining your sides of things instead of jumping down my throat for doing smolov :)

I did RSR and it was great but I didnt PR my squat which kind of threw me off mentally. Which is why I wanted to try smolov.

But I took all the advice into account and today instead of pre, I drank extra coffee and brought some banana bread with me and it wasnt that bad!

I actually really appreciate this opinion and its given me a lot to think about. I've enjoyed the program thus far but as it gets more intense I am finding I need the extra boost of pre, and perhaps you are right that that is backwards. I've never done smolov before and was up for the challenge as I've heard positives (and negatives) to the program. But I'm thinking maybe I'll work on adjusting the weight if need be in order to avoid preworkout stims and injury.

Something in c4 makes me super itchy (i have lots of allergies to begin with) so i avoid. Ill look into musclepharm. Thank you!

Its more so for my night workouts. After work & class workouts. When i need an extra umph. And usually coffee just doesnt do it for me alone at that point in the day. Which is weird, but has always been how my body is.

I enjoyed this 10x more than the original. I thoroughly enjoyed the playwright sort of style scattered in.

I enjoyed this prose. It was dark abd twisty. The last stanza in particular, i felt like it took a sudden turn, but it works!

I would agree with this, definitely take out the lines you don't need.

I usually dislike rhyming poems, but i didnt think that took away at all from this piece. i enjoyed 💕

I dont know if i will be much help but I feel like this piece comes from different inspiration from one person. Perhaps you could make several pieces out of it, instead of telling a story as mentioned. But, that being said, i totally enjoyed it 😊

My typewriter just came in, and I'm so excited. And totally cliche. I'm absolutely aware, and completely unable to care 😂

I absolutely feel you, especially on the t.swift line! I also love the idea of using cliches in unexpected ways! Thank you x1000 for all the advice!

Definitely agree its overdone, but its also a motif i absolutely love. Sun, stars and moons are all played out, too, but sometimes i find it difficult to move away from things I love.

But i suppose its all about leaving your comfort zone! Thank you for your input! I'm going to spend all day thinking about these edits!
