Let’s start this off with a bang:
This is a really good vid, you will like it.
Over the weekend I benched 270lbs for a double and a single, squat 440lbs x 3 low-bar with tired and sore hamstrings, pressed 170lbs x 4, and did some barbell rowing, weighted pull ups, and curls. These all match current bests, and two of those current bests are from a higher bw.
Today (Wednesday) I benched 250lbs 5, 5, 4, and 3 – this would be a stall, and I want to fucking kill myself. I low-bar squat 415lbs x 3 after this. Total workout time was 35min.
Speaking of killing myself, I’ve been benching without a spotter in quite a few recent workouts. I’m just tired of asking random scrubs for a spot, and the bar tends to stall closer to lock-out than my chest so every time it doesn’t look like it’s going to go, I’ve managed to take it into the lower pins on the rack, and I set up pretty close to the rack as well. This is how people die benching. Now that I am thinking about how fragile my mortality is I will probably start asking people to spot me.
Here is a chatlog from earlier today with my friend Shawn:
me: sup
sowen41: not too much
working
how about you
sowen41: you know what…
what the fuck
who the fuck drops a sup
and then nothing after
you better have had a fucking stroke or something.
or have spilt something on the key board.
it isn’t a god damn game brent.
god damned slack jawed faggots.
this is absurd.
you said hey
I made time for you
I pushed my paper work aside and thought – HEY I’ll talk to brent.
next time you wanna say ‘sup’ – might as well mail me a letter – and have the postman deliver it to the god damn corpse hanging in the fucking closet…
sowen41: next time why don’t you fucking call. I like hearing a voice in my ear when I’m getting FUCKED like this.
sowen41: maybe fucking pull out next time you bend me over and FUCK me like this…that way I won’t have to fucking have it run down my god damn thigh…
thanks brent…
thanks for FUCKING ME like this.
sowen41: nothing?
no response?
I’d be pretty short winded too after a hardcore fucking like that…
sowen41: hey brent, I hope you have a steady job… because after a fucking like this – there’s no way I can NOT get pregnant.
mother fucker.
There is a girl at work who is nervous and awkward. She is kind of like the new desk receptionist in The Office, the one who likes Michael Scott and dated Andy. I think she is cute. She’s a geek. We spent about 30 minutes having what was essentially a stream-of-consciousness conversation on her part. She is of course living with her ex who she recently broke up with (two days ago). Post thoughts and predictions in comments.
I’ve been collecting some time with a lacrosse ball and my distal extremities … hit my high gastrocs, extensor mass on my forearms, and even distal triceps. The distal triceps were lit the FUCK up by tack-and-stretch, I was sore for about 48 hours after rolling on them, but pressing and front rack seem to feel better. I will prob try another exposure or two. High gastroc tack-and-stretch also seems to help with my squat, makes it easier to keep my knees back and seems to improve the bottom position.
Lives with her ex? Either avoid or fuck her in her ex’s bed when he’s not home.
Erin from The Office is so hot.
Lol’ing at the horse being over it before the woman was.
Lol’ing a Brent being on WSHH.
do you have a link for some good MOB work for beginners? I’ve been lifting for about 6 years but never done any specific mobility stuff other than the prehab we do with our S+C coach at rugby. thanks brent, you’re my hero
Hey Brent, whats this “High gastroc tack-and-stretch” you speak of?
I searched K-star’s site a bit but didnt see anything really.
Put a lacrosse ball right in the groove above your knee while lying face down on the floor then move your leg like a leg curl.

ah fuck wrong thing. Sorry. it might be this the first thing in this video.

thanks man, I think I understand now
I think this is how brent does it. I dont see how you could tack and stretch that area any other way. I also REALLY like the end of that last video for rolling out my calves. If you use a bar in a rack and get someone to roll em out it sucks even worse but the bottom position squatting feels amazing if your all laminated.
Hi Brent,
I just started watching this BBC show called “Peep Show.” There’s an episode in the first season that relates to your dilemma. If life plays out like it does on TV, I don’t think you’ll be a virgin for long! Can you say “revenge fuck?!”
See: http://www.hulu.com/watch/70762/peep-show-on-the-pull#s-p1-n1-so-i0
Peep Show is not by the BBC. It’s by Channel 4.
INCORRECT!
Everything English is BBC.
who would win in a fight between you and frank yang?
are you fucking kidding? Brent Kim by savage beating, and then he fucking kills himself

Bro just post your b.net ID and i’ll school you on EZ bro. But bro, just ask ur mom about EZ bro. Really bro. EZZZZZZZ!

I cry every time and animal is inconvenienced.
I really enjoyed the predator reference in this post.
Hey man,
How do you set up your mobility work? Do you follw the MWOD episodes, or do you have a few that you do regularly. I have a few MWOD episodes that I like: a few for lower body and a few for shoulders and neck, along with just regular PVC and lacrosse rolling. Trying to figure out the best way to get fit it all in my schedule. You seem to have a good grasp on this. Thanks for any assistance
