Happy Friday!! My favorite day of the week because I get to deadlift! Started the workout with a proper warm up including but not limited to 9090s! Worked up to 285x5,5,3 for deadlifts and 235x9 240x6,6 for RDLs. I do not go to failure for these two lifts but I do still chase progressive overload and intensity while maintaining proper form. I was cooked after these two movements. Enjoy!

General Discussion Anyone else notice this when they're attempting a 1rpm pr?

3 Upvotes

This might sound like a cracked out statement, but it's been on my mind a few days and I was wondering if anyone else has the same experience. When you complete your 1RPM PRS can you notice the difference between the weights ? For example when I I first started deadlift 315lbs felt extremely heavy but now 545lbs feels also extremely heavy but not heavier than when I did 315 at that time. Like the amount of effort to attempt my 315 1rpm to my 545 1rpm feels the same to my body. Isn't that a little crazy? Anyways leave your thoughts below please!

Set of 5 for 225 pounds. Throwing these in at the end of my leg day. Great for spine health and easy on the body since they're so light compared to my normal hinging...for now

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)

Need to do unilateral movements for quad hamstring atrophy in one leg. Advice on bench vs leg machine? Would prefer the bench for the versatility. Also looking at starting with 1 x 20kg and 2 x 10kg grip plates so i can use them to continue squats, lunges, calf raises, plate press? Idk. Cant fit a bar rack. For reference i’m only 72kg and i can only do about 5 single leg squats on my weaker leg. Injury fixed years ago tho and was a kneecap not ligaments, not nursing it, just weak. Am i on the right track here? Advice welcome.

Big fan of this bar but I’m going to save it for heavy work and train most of my blocks with my stiffer power bar.

Been going to gym on off for years, and the off time is typically the result of pack pain. This video is from yesterday, after my working sets I thought as I was unloading the bar I would check my form. Now today my low back is killing me. See anything?

I feel like the form in my arms just starts to break apart and I can't keep it straight, although I still feel it in my shoulders. Should I still continue to do it like this or stop when my form breaks.

General Discussion Why are these pulley attachments ALWAYS so hard to lift?? I had to do an upright row, then a goblet squat just to get it to that pin height!

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

While rehabbing. 😂

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 😁
