Great work on the pressing! 2 plates on the incline is awesome. Very strong overhead work. I have lower body this morning, with some squats, lunges & trap bar farmers----what I like to call walking deadlifts.

[905letters]

The guy spotting you needs to not finish the lift for you, that's how you loose gains and you don't truly hit those numbers

[charlievanriper]

If you were here you would see he didnt finish the lift for me. I request all my spotters to just touch the bar. Sorry to disappoint you but 6 people 2 of them club managment were present and said it was all me.
In anycase your a blind idiot if you think my spotter took any tension away from that lift, and in anycase your just another Troll..

See you're bringing the legs back in, didn't you have some kind of injury that had been preventing lower body, hope that's getting better.

The warm up, you say sissy squat with bar on back. How do you manage that? You'd need arms for the sissy and some more to hold the bar. You're not Shiva/Durga are you but forgot to mention it earlier?

Great session Charlie! Looking forward to seeing the new additions to your gym. I've had a ton of (re)start-up costs with the restaurant, but once that simmers down a bit, I'm going to try to add some extra plates, and possibly a calf machine. Keep up the good work!
