just wondering if anyone else has had a pretty big jump in weight in any lift.
Mine is Flat BBell Bench.
Last Week i struggled putting up 57.5kg for 6 reps. then yesterday i was aiming to get 60kg got 6 reps really easily, tried 65kg got that up fairly easy. so i tried 70kg and got 6 reps outta it!
So i went up 12.5kg in a lift in 1 week. anyone else done something similar?

I don't know about you, but somedays I have way more energy than others.
That seems to be a pretty significant gain in only a week, but if it's the real deal grats man. Keep up the hard work.

That mainly has to due with good/bad days and energy levels, you didn't magically get that much stronger throughout the week.

when I first started front squatting I maxed at 195, next week I got 275, sometimes it's just finding your perfect form
I bodybuild, I don't powerlift, as far as how much I can lift goes it doesn't matter to me, it's how much I grow.

this, you got a little physically stronger, but if you gained 12.5kg on your bench it was mainly due to your form and mind.Originally Posted by Addict3d
