It becomes habit after a while and the walls/procrastinating thoughts we build up in our mind fall down when we can see how easy things are to achieve over time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just make sure I lower the bar slowly so I don't destroy anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(holy crap, how did that happen...) #k31thargueswiththeworld Will post more in this thread when I get time (busy week at work), but I'm curious as to how you get your kg ratings from the cable based machines you're utilising for a lot of your exercises, Keiffy. Is there a conversion table on the machine that says what weight certain plates are? I've never seen anything like that on those machiens, that's all. All I know is that I put the pin in the number 13 plate for lat pulldown and do 3x sets of 8 reps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those numbers are kilogram ratings for where you put the pin in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of them just have generic 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 etc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
