Post your lifting videos

You're right and it's a great idea, but I'm being completely stubborn. I refuse to use resistance bands, balls, etc...I will take my chances of smashing my face on the floor.

I practice a few sets everyday after my workout and I'm getting much better at them. I'll throw up another vid soon.

I think even getting a few reps of partials on these hit my hamstrings harder and better than any other move I can remember using recently. Literally ass kicking!!!

Sheer stubbornness and will is what is going to get me there.

Lol, all good

Today's attempts (mishaps and fails due to distractions from view-ruiners, but getting better!):

I enjoyed the mechanical fail in the first attempt.

It's taken me a few weeks to learn to trust that the band isn't going to snap when I'm past the point that I could go to without it, causing me to aggressively faceplant. I think we're all taking our chances on that front

Doing my favorite exercise this morning:


And yes, I know my hammies don't even look like I lift. But I did DL for the first time today and will continue.

No deadlift video?

If the band snaps, would we hit the ground/faceplant faster?!

Omg...what an awful thought...

I pretty much throw myself into GHR's (because even with the band, I still need a big stretch strength reflex to get me out of the deep end) so if the band did snap, I don't think it'd be a pretty picture. It'd be an epic youtube video, though, and a great contribution to this thread.

go, discdoggie, go!

Soon after I get the form down well.

Awesome

My butt is plastered errywhere on the internet now.

honestly even at metroflex where we had the GHR i never messed with it much, if that leg support pops out that concrete is the only thing to break your fall

[wakechica]

my usual gym doesn't really have suitable apparatus for GHRs. The best one is a shoulder press but the leg things roll and I feel so insecure. Think I may save them for weekends at the better gym I've got very good at going down very slowly, now to work on the up!

They are far easier on a "real" GHR station I can bang out multiple solid reps on those. This way is much much harder. Val and Chaos use lat pulldown and Kimm and I use the seated calf machine. Make sure to rememer to weight down the other side.

That's fantastic , good job very strong @ 161 lbs that's impressive

Thanks. Gonna keep working on form, drop a few pounds and get stronger till the next one.
I don't like the blur much myself but in an effort to ease S.O.'s concerns about stalkers or crazy dudes who might be on on the interwebs I'm playing along. If nationals for the fed I'm in are streamed . . . the face hiding will end till then all ya will see my teddy bear smile/grimace as I fight though a tough lift.

Yeah nationals are most definitely streamed .. you can wear sunglasses, mustache and a wig .. check the rule book

Actually I do mine from an old lat pulldown machine.

Ok so nationals are streamed no more blur then . . .


In any case I like the disguise idea . . .





pretty sure it won't fly but I like the thought of it.

watching all the ghr vids that have been posted is making me wanna try it . . . guessing its a better hamstring exercise than RDL's or leg curls even?

Not better, just different. I got a friend to film me doing GHRs today, but wheter or not he'll upload it remains to be seen.

[megdaig]

Nice lift! I think, yes, far more effective than either of those. Definitely "harder."

Working on some bench...end of the bench day program 250XAMRAP


Did these yesterday 225x25 squats (goofing on a buddy's promo for BEAST)


And this was the next set 315x10 (Not totally happy with the form but it works for me)
