The Manta Ray is a nasty exercise when you are over 6 foot tall. There was nobody in the gym tonight so I am very happy with this squat!

Great job on the pr Frank. do you use an oympic bar or a trap bar for your shrugs? and also, do you use straps or not? I have been out of the loop for awhile so would you explain chg and csr?

"I have been out of the loop for awhile so would you explain chg and csr?"

CHG=GLute Ham Gastroc (Calf) Bench
CSR=Chest Supported Rows

And Frank is right about the Manta Ray-at 6'3" that is what caused my hissy fit on ME day last week!

Hi Warrior!

1)I use a cambered bar when I do my shrugs, my package gets in the way with a straight bar. I hate to brag! LOL!
2)I do use straps, I do my shrugs very stict! I get a very high rage of motion and hold at the top for a 2 count. No bouncing or jerking, thats why I only go to 315-365. We have guys who shrug and use 7-8 hundred pounds, the bar moves a half inch. I try to touch my traps to my ears, and no I don't have big ears either! LOL!

Erm is correct on the CHG and CSR, thats me getting lazy and not typing all the words out!

Congrats on the PR!!! And I have to agree about the mantra ray, it is nasty when you are tall.
