Nice. I have no reply other than to tell you to look up otto on the urban dictionary. Not at work, of course. Co-workers of mine did that Monday. :-S
FWIW, #14 on the pulldowns is all but one plate and it was relatively easy. It was using the crossover cable so it's not really meant for back work... but it's something, I think.

Thursday night's workout. Good news the vibrams make the swiss ball leg curls way easier than normal sneakers. Bad news, my hamstrings are killing me today.
Also looked at both cable machines I used for the A workout... neither has a conversion for # of plates to actual weight. You'll just have to default to cowering.

I come in the thread using last page instead of the little icon that takes you to 1st unread.
At the top is Aoife's comment "What doesn't feel right about them?" -
pop to the bottom and find those 4 - I'm pretty sure one of these is not like the others.

I feel inflexible in the obliques when I go down, so I can't get down very far and push up very fast. It's really weird.
Doesn't feel anything like when I do it with a barbell.
It might be because with the dbs you can keep the weight more overhead and less forward than one usually can with the barbell. That would stretch a bit more, and if you had them closer together than having the hands on the bar.
Let's set up a quick comparison at home and see if there's anything wrong. If not, you prolly want to do as written.

They were less bad Sunday night. I ended up putting the weight more forward on my shoulders, so maybe you're right. Basically having one of the ends of the DB resting on my shoulder rather than trying to have the center of gravity of the DB on my shoulder.
