Hey Chip, that was cool you stopped by my journal for encouragement. But seems you are doing pullups, I haven't made 1 yet. what do you mean by Pullups (negative only)??? On those hyperextensions, I never feel them in the legs either, but I was reading in one journal this guy was going past parallel on the way back up and that's when he felt it hit his legs. Well, I heard that was a great way to get injured, (going past parallel on way back up) so you must have good form on that one.
I will see you later......
-Amy

Thanks for the words of encouragement in my journal, dude. I train mostly for hypertrophy, but I'd like to do some cycles for strength. Looks like you do a lot of strength training, so I just may be hitting you up for some good tips in the future.
Thanks again,
Chip

Is that where you get between the two benches and put the plates on top of your legs/lower abs, at least thats what I'm thinking......is there another way people do them at gyms?
