More rest and heavy tri's. Work different grips. Work your sticking points. Oh and ,most important, blast some Exodus or something in the backround..

Not for me....a thick belt adds a good 45 lbs on my squat. I agree a lot is confidence that your beack is stable but the ability to push against something helps me.

Holy smokes...what are you, a frriggin giant Blue Shark? Calm down on the Chicken of the Sea, Holmeslice!

we have been through this ad nauseum....the best exercises target the lower ab and upper hip flexor area (lliopsoas). The core needs to be strong or u wont go anywhere.

cael sanders wrestling shoes...flat sole...I love em. I had a pair of crazy itallian flat soled sneeks that I loved ...all leather.

go to the drud store and ask the pharmacist for smelling salts.

That there are no sweet asses like chickentuna at my gym.

I'm done for good. Both shoulders are shot. Been through 2 surgery's on the joint/cuff. Doctor says can't bench over bodyweight ever again. I was bummed for awhile but figure at my age its not the...
