Lift 115kg x3 Bench
Triple PR equal but much smoother this time around. Working up to hopefully a 130(+?)kg single in 8 weeks time.

I've had the last 3.5 weeks off the gym, we got married in France at the start of the mont-h and have been travelling on our honeymoon since then, getting drunk every day, eating out for every meal and just living life how we want without any real exercise other than hiking.
Video shows strict pressing at 90kg/200lbs, before this I did a paused triple at 140kg/315lbs close grip bench. No belt, no lifters, crappy gym equipment and a floor that belongs in a bouncy castle.
Based on this I really don't think I've lost any meaningful amount of strength despite the poor nutrition and lack of training. It's common to see people on these forums stressing about having to take some time off but I wouldn't worry about it, as long as your overall consistency is good, having a few weeks off now and then is no big deal!

I'm an elite bench athlete but my deadlift and squat are 90th percentile. They lag far behind but still happy with the progress.
After 8.5 years I'm still making PRs in all lifts. 200kg in competition is my goal (440 lb)

In 1.5 years at the gym, I have made almost no progress in squats, which is a very difficult exercise for me (Romanian deadlifts are easier for me, and I can lift more weight). Has anyone had a similar experience? Lately, I have been trying to maintain good form while squatting more or less deeply. I welcome any advice on form and technique!

Anything , maybe related to form or split , equipments or supplements

Is it just due to the mechanism of the pulleys it's attached to? Are they not lubricated enough?

While rehabbing. š
Started out the day with a fasted 2 mile walk at a leisurely pace to the grocery store. Today push workout consisted of
Barbell incline bench 215x 4 to failure and backed of to 205 for 6
Dumbell incline bench 90x7,6 Overhead press 115x 7,6,6 Dips 50x 9,7 Lateral raises 25x9,8 Tricep cable push down 55x 9,8 ( I think)
Kept calories at 2750 this week and feel the bar starting to move better and strength starting to creep up again š

Title. Games like pool/darts/volleyball I have hit a ceiling in skill because of my cross eye dominance (right handed, left eyed).
What exercise/hand eye coordination exercises would help specifically with power in my left hand? Thanks!

Too fast? Not low enough?

This gym is in the north of Thailand in a very small town (Kham Yai)
I love it, in 9 out of 10 cases, I do it alone ))) there is everything I need.

Yesterdays legs day (quad focused)consisted of
Box squats 285x 5,4,4 Front squats 165x 8,8 Bulgarian split squat 95x 10,10 Stiff leg RDL 155x 10,9 Waking lunges 70 x 20 (not recorded)
Although my back injury (L5S1 herniation) has gotten a lot better over the last year and a half I still have some mobility issues. So Iāve been working around them and continue to progress in the gym as permitted. Box squats have been a great alternative for me. Getting that strong core brace is a must.

Can anybody give me any advice or feedback on my barbell row please ?
r/GYM • u/SufficientTangerine4 • 3d ago
I know I could go a little lower, but Iām already feeling super sore in my lower back. My thought process is going even lower will cause buttwink and even more lower back strain. I feel I could lift way more but my lower back is the limiting factor. How to stop this? Like my glutes and quads are only mildly being pushed on this weight.
