One habit I can stop doing is after every set I was turning in the hex bolt on my old bar by hand with my finger.

Don't have to do that anymore!!!!!

So being in Canada I went with the cheaper option shipped to me which was the OHP over the AB as it was almost 1/3 the price. I find it sharp especially compared to my old beater. I've only used it...

Thank you. Check out this great caluclater for if and when the time comes

It has all the options, and you can even tell it what plates you have.

It is bugging me. I will be on the lookout for more 25's and get rid or the odd ones.

I just got more York just cheap 4x35's luckily they are the same exact style as my existing, and also picked...

I'm picking up what you are putting down re: beginner. Thank you for taking the time to explain it. I'll stay here as long as possible, in a good way.

I will stop changing things when I fail, like...

Ugh
Stalled bench again this time on week 3 170lbs only repp'd 4,3,4,2 then I dropped to 155 and did 6 reps to wrap up no problem. It was supposed to be 6 rep week 6,6,6 of 170. Last week I did...

BW body weight from the All-Pro FAQ:

Q10: How do you know when you have "graduated" ALLPRO?
A: 10 reps of BW bench
10 reps of 1.25x-1.5x BW squats

So the closest I got to bench was 12x165 at...

I couldn't get my Squats or bench reps in on this cycle on week 3 on heavy day
I'm still going to finish the cycle maybe I just had a bad day but I think that's unlikely

I've been you-tubing 531,...

Here is my humble first used York purchase. I'll see about getting the spray paint off of two of them. That was a bit of a bummer, but, they were cheap.

The bright lettered ones are a larger...

Reading the thread more in detail today I see they are "Calibrated" plates albeit mine are missing any calibration screws or weights. I'll have to weigh them and see what's what.
Maybe this is why...

I checked out the doc here https://docs.google.com/document/d/1dbRIGo0tZlrume27s3jusN2gtuEfLgQXOt1UPTZUfnI/edit and have been reading this thread and can't find a picture of my 45's that need more...

^ This is awesome.

And remember! Every exercise is a lower back exercise, if you do it wrong enough.

Nothing happens from what I know. It's only what I do! Action!

Pick a starter program in the sticky's, don't modify it, and stick with it until you graduate. Even if it's not as fast as you...

I really wish I could find some of these bars in real life to test out!

I've been using a 30 year old POS no-name 30mm bar, with the hex bolt end caps. It has hardly any knurl left on it and...

I just tried harder and pm'd all admins and supermods listed here https://forum.bodybuilding.com/showgroups.php

Rep'd! ^^ This is my truth too.

When I stop working out 3-4 times a week and take 1-2 weeks off, when I get back at it even starting with "light" day my DOMS is brutal! I always force myself to do...

I had knee issues that were ultimately solved by an MRI where they actually saw the problem and operated, scoping out the torn meniscus. Doc said I could start squatting or doing whatever I wanted...

I keep offering up help and keep getting ignored. Whomever fixed stuff could use a hand, even if just for dumb stuff they don't want to do, I'd be willing to help out. 30yrs in I.T. everything from...
