>squatted 2pl8 today
Post your recent achievements lads
Deadlifted 192kg yesterday at 86kg bodyweight.
Not spectacular but a good step on the road to regaining the strength I lost on my cut.
>>37769943
i got drunk and fell down some stairs
almost broke my back
I added deadlifts a couple weeks ago and just hit 3pl8
Feels breddy alright
>>37769943
Literally the same thing today. How long you been lifting?
Finally got to 1lmaobench press, going for two by the end of the year :^)
>>37770030

>>37769943
Squatted a pl8 and got a job call back
>>37769943
>2pl8 bench 3x5
I know it's a weird set but it's what I could do. First time putting 225 up. Feelsgood
>>37770227
Whys this a weird set?
>>37770227
Sounds like a pretty normal set to me good job lad

>>37770219
gj anons, we're all gonna make it
>>37770278
is being that lopsided when you squat a bad thing?
how to fix?
also at the end of the rep when you struggled, is that okay? When I get to that point I'm scared my form is breaking and I'm hurting my back, but I'm not sure if that's actually the case. It looks like you.
>>37770278
i bet that felt like you were pushing up for a hundred years
Deadlifted 518lbs/235kg
>>37770320
I mean, it's not awesome. but I was experimenting a lot at this point with different cues and shit, obviously this one wasn't working. when this webm video was taken, I was also dealing with some pain in my left hip and right calf, so there's that.
>how to fix?
I stopped using cues that made me do it
>also at the end of the rep when you struggled, is that okay?
it's supposed to be hard, weights are heavy
>When I get to that point I'm scared my form is breaking and I'm hurting my back, but I'm not sure if that's actually the case. It looks like you.
at near-maximal weights, of course there are going to be some form issues. shit's hard in the 95+% range.
>>37770367
nah, felt pretty good tBh
webm related actually felt waayyyyyyy worse
>>37770401

>>37770401
Managed to do a single deadhang pull up. Only took a few days of negatives
>>37769943
Pressed lmao1pl8 overhead 65 reps over the course of the day, mostly in triples and doubles, a couple singles from time to time.
Up from 20 reps in one day, which was how much i did yesterday.
Grease the groove is the greatest way to build strength endurance. Lowering the weight is some pussy shit.
Hit a first deadlift max of 480 lbs/ ~217kg
After a few years working out as a shot/put discus thrower, this is my first time maxing DL
>>37770204
>ohp .5pl8
So today was your first day pressing overhead?
>>37770436
shot put/discus
On Thursday I hit 185x6 bench and 310x5 deadlift. Both rep PRs. I weigh 137
>>37769943
Lost 10 pounds, down to 181 lbs at 5'7". My deadlift is now at 325 lbs. I am actually happy to see my progress and want to continue cutting.
Hoping to make spec ops, even started swim lessons.

>>37769943

>>37770470

>>37770258
>>37770260
I just always hear people say either 5 reps or 8-12. No other reps are acceptable.
>3 plaet bench
>200lb OHP
all while remaining rather aesthetic. cant be stopped.
>>37770442
No bully

>>37770470

>>37770551
you're a very strong young man. can i see a pic of you with no shirt on. no homo. just curious.
whats your bench and OHP? weighted chins?
My crush gave me a handjob, next week she stays at my place and we're definitely gonna fuck
>>37770551
Nice. And how long have you been lifting? I started in January. This thread is about PR feels. I have nothing to be ashamed of and I think I'm actually quite strong for my weight and lack of lifting experience
>>37770585
i envy you. I miss the thrill of new females.
>>37770551
>sumo deadlifts
>>37770579
such a photo doesn't exist tBh, otherwise yeah I would
>whats your bench and OHP? weighted chins?

I don't do ohp or weighted chins, soz fAm
>>37770592
I started in december of 2013, so just over 2.5 years now
>>37770604
deal with it nerd
>>37770612
>do this set up
>before you unrack bar your feet still move
lol what's theponit if you're not even tight
>>37770612
>>37770512
>>37770551
>>37770537
All you fucking powerlifters. Look like shit and no one gives a fuck about your goofy ass lifts that you film in the gym. You're not aesthetic and everyone thinks you're retarded.
>>37770637
im no power lifter, shitbag. please post your beautiful body so we may watch in reverence.
>>37770625
the setup is to get my shoulders in place
then when I unrack, I get my ass down, and to keep my feet flat, I need to scoot my heels forward a bit.
I assure you I am tight
ok bedtime
nn brehs
>>37770637
ok
>>37770661
Is there any better feeling than re-racking a heavy squat, lads
Not the feeling of accomplishment I mean, just the feeling of suddenly being hundreds of pounds lighter
>>37770650
Sorry about the face lol
>>37770650
Admiring.
Height/weight?
>>37770692
Being able to get the god damn yoke off your back after a walk.
>>37770702

it took me so long to reach lmao1plaetbench. Once I broke that hymen though, I started making weekly gains...2.5inch plate at a time. At 1.5ishplates now.
It felt so fucking good to finally hit 1plate. Benching a non-plate looks so fucking pussycore, it was embarrassing. Doing a bunch of non-barbell-bench chest workouts and going hard with it helped me hit that mark. Going with DB instead of barbell helped a lot, also using a cable crossover and hitting every fucking angle til I felt like dying helped. DB flys too.
We're all gonna make it.
Finally fixing my injuries and imbalances which is letting me lift what my muscles can and not what my shitty joints etc will allow.
That and I probably look the best I ever have.
Been doing Stronglifts for nearly a couple of months now.
I hit 1pl8 Squat 2 weeks ago and 1pl8 deadlift a month ago, feels great mang.
3x5 2/3.5 (today)/4/4.5
>>37769943
Hit 180kg DL at 70kg bodyweight.
Felt amazing. I did it for her brahs.
>>37769943
How heavy is a pl8 lads? Managed to bench 90 kg for 5 reps today felts a bit good
Curling 7 great form reps with 40 pound dumbbells.
I was stuck on 30s for a year and then used 35s for 2 months before graduating up. Funny how it worked out.
>>37770278
>low bar
>belt
>knee wraps
>wrist wraps
ye na m8
>>37770204
95 is a damn good ohp if your deadlift is less than 2pl8. Gj skelly bro keep it up
finally hit 5pl8 deadlift after a plateau that lasted a month and a half.
>>37770650
Where the hell is your belly button?
>>37772192
>knee wraps
>>37772192
I'm sure you could squat that weight without wraps, right?
>>37772183
20 kg roughly
I didn't have to take advil for my knee at work yesterday.
>cant squat again yet though
>>37770551
>doing sumo deadlift because you have a weak core

Onwards and upwards
>>37774106
You have no idea how wrong you are. All the most serious lifters I know are gigantic closeted weeaboos.
>>37769943
I finally applied for a fucking job.

Bench press 225x7. But I'm cutting so I doubt I'll get 8 for a while.
