Bodyweight about 210, training fasted, and on low-carb.
Falcon, great weight on the bench, but...get some friggin' safeties or a rack!
And I think you'd do way more with better form (namely not flaring your elbows that much and staying tighter throughout/not bouncing).
On to 400!
Yeah, I've been trying to fix my form on bench. My grip was WAY too narrow before, now I use wide grip and my form is MUCH better.
130kgx1 floor press (290 i think) @ 170... 5kg/ 10lb PR been a long time coming!
182.5kg/ 400lb Raw squat @ 170..... a easy 7.5kg/ 15lb PR.
depth was bang on.
had more in the tank but i was happy with what i got.
New post-surgery PR for squat (PLing-style, for those wondering...works hip flexors more, so I think it's more applicable to sports).
How's the depth?

solid depth. why no belt???
Just personal preference. I don't even wear one on DL.

Didn't really get my elbows up until I after I finished the lift, but whatever.
Do these bots actually think people are retarded enough to click on their links?
Anyways, 295 front squat. Not the best, but as my right knee continues to get better and stronger, I should continue to see gains.
Got a 315 raw bench on my me work at a bw of 163. First time really using the conjugate method, but im really liking it.
How does it look?

585 x 1
600 x 1
Palms and joints are still on fire (2 hrs later)
Looks good honestly, just need to work on your speed. I would suggest trying to sit back a little more, you're not getting much out of your legs. It's hard to tell from that angle but it looks like your shoulders are fairly far over the bar. How much weight was that?Quote:

Keep on training is the only thing I can come up with, it has worked rather well before (I was a skinny fuk 15 years ago)
The 'speed' was because I underestimated the weight :clown:
This is the usual speed when lifting, but neither is this lift work of art, as I wobble the weight at top position, instead of leaning back (I remember vaguely that the hands were yearning to put it down real soon)

Thing is that I really want to start making better, longer, workout videos, because it would be cool as I'm a musician, and I have perfectly fitting tunes to lifting! But first I need to learn better form, in many lifts, and get a better camera (the first deadlift video was also made with cellie,but a better than the old)
157.5kg/347lbs Zercher squat for 2 sets of 2 reps on an empty stomach, no warm up.
PR of 2.5kg/5lbs for last session. Aiming for double BW zercher squat of 385lbs soon.
Got a PR of 160kg/352lbs for 3 sets of 2 reps as planned earlier. Took a few days off cause of sore shoulder which I think helped me recover from the hard 157.5Quote:
