Don't be scared. Volume makes you strong.

I'm hoping so. You should update your sig to include your new log! Somehow I got unsubbed.

I haven't proved I've lifted in awhile...



I'm just about to go away for 9 days, so I pushed myself pretty hard, so sorry if these lifts are ugly.

185lb Bench is a 5lb PR.
365lb Deadlift is a 15lb PR.
250lb Squat is a 25 lb PR.

TY for feedback.

EDIT: lol. I've been noticing some bruising on my chest.... just realized what it was. It's the barbell hitting my chest on bench. LOL. Guess I better slow down the decent.

So, I had one of the best training days in recent memory yesterday. I came in at 167. After my 375x4x2 of pause conventional DLs, I decided that the box DLs I'd do as an unbelted sumo. I did 405x2x3 (I'd actually use this as a speed DL for singles) and then did 445x3x2 fairly easily until the very last rep on the last set. When I hit 500, I struggled with 445x2 belted a bit, so I'm feeling good about doing conventional DL for so long. My lockout has become really weak, though. I started doing heavy hip thrusts and I'm re-introducing sumo since I'll be maxing out in 6 weeks.

Went to bench, program called for 240x3x2. I decided to do 245. First set, too easy. Ended up doing three-second pauses fairly easily. Feeling super stoked about that one. Feeling pumped, bruhs.

Also doing the chin-up project from T-Nation. Gonna get dat back.

Even though my knee/glute have been killing me, I hit 505 squat for 2 singles today! I also worked up to my opener (565) on deadlift with no issues. Now all I have left is a few bench workouts before my meet next week.

Muscle memory and weight gain. I'm still nowhere near my final form, but I have to clean up these nagging injuries first.

Everyone in here is hitting PR's and I don't even lift, lol.

My back still isn't better after a month. I can bench, OHP, vertical pull, and leg press pain free now, however, I'm thinking about taking a month off and sticking solely to bodyweight or nothing at all to allow my back to heal. What do you all think?

For those wondering, It's about mid back around my latissimus dorsi or spinal erectors. It doesn't get swollen or discolored, so I'd assume it's nothing serious like disc issues. I just can't put tension on it like I'm rowing, deadlifting, or squatting. It also hurts a bit when I try to extend it the whole way.

[ErickStevens]

I hit 305 for a single today on bench, only 15lbs off my best lol. Oh well, my body is as ready as it's going to be. I'm one week out tomorrow. Openers are set at 462/275/556. C'thulu protect me.

Switching from bodybuilding style bench/form to PL while I run these next few cycles of 5/3/1 and am terrified to see how bad my bench #'s drop.

I'd start with 2 weeks off completely and see it from there

Seriously. Bar has been raised…I better step up my game and find reason to post in this thread.

So until then, "I don't even lift."

I agree with monkay, take 2 weeks off and see. It may not hurt when you bench, or OHP, etc., but you may still be putting unwanted tension/pressure on it.

Hey guys so i'm posting my dead lift video here because i wanted a form check from you guys. I have been having issues with my deadlift. It is the only lift that troubles me the most. Note* I usually can pull 175. I am just going light in this video to show you my form. I also know that i'm doing tap and go. Please let me know what you think. Also a year ago i was able to hit 225 for a PR., but I ended up eventually hurting myself from terrible form

[cls91]

^^ hurt yourself how?

I used to have hip/lower back discomfort from deadlifting, and when I stopped bringing the weight down slowly, and started 'controlled dropping' the weight it went away. I also stopped doing tap and go at that time... would pause for a split second between each rep (usually wouldn't need to regrip/readjust since I found that was only necessary when I was using hex plates). You could try bringing the weight down a bit quicker if your 'issues' are similar

Also form usually starts breaking down as you get heavier, so going lighter just to show form doesn't really make sense.
