Pretty gosh darned impressive progress. Seriously.

The bendy girl in the video was far more distracting than the bendy guy…

I was thinking that he looked like he was practicing to stuff himself into a box.[/quote]

You could be right about the box, it really freaks me out when he is in half.

lol on bendy girl

Da mutt is a reference to my jeep. It is made from pieces from 3 different jeeps, three different chevy vehicles( a truck, car and a wrecker plus all kinds of custom stuff so it literally is a mutt

ohhhh and I heard today that Bendy guy does some helicopter thing in middle of gym with the pole…i am so taping it if im there, but tell me why then it is i cant use chalk? But he can twirl in circles from a pole?

heres said vid, need to dial in with this weight, i used to go deeper and felt them more in hammies.

Bench Day

warm up

Bench 45/10 55/8 65/6 75/2x7 1x6 75 first set did lift off and got 7 second set got help with lift off got 7 , last set help with lift off spotter helped my on 7 so I got 6
Ill post vid to show how Im doing,

DB shoulder press 20/4x6

T-bar row 40/8 45/6 50/4 55/4 45/10

DB incline 3x12-0 OMG I hate these, it kills by rep 8 holding the weight for that long- starting 12 count isnt so bad but by count 8 im dying - brutal, I actually thought while grinding them out, if this is making me stronger I dont wanna be any stronger.

This was last set…

just showing up is more than half the battle sometimes…

And thanks for the nice words…I’m still not there(yet) but you give me inspiration!! :slight_smile:

Nice arch on your bench. Was that the “bendy guy” helping you?

MIM :slight_smile: good luck with your school choice, you have good ambition!

Cav. oh no, bendy guy is stick thin.

Outdoor work today, landscaper just would not get to the wood pile, soooo hauled it to curb.
Did a combo of “sled drag” and suto farmer walk, grip was crying.

Also I have been doing good with rolling out after training. The other day i looked in mirror and saw a little bulge in top of trap/back of shoulder area, i pushed down on it and it actually made a “crunching” noise…yikes.

nice squats and nice pressing

you look soooooo long for 5’4
Im pushing 5’5"

crunchy traps not so yay

Great form Upscale!

(Works whichever way you want to interpret it!)

Great inspirational stuff you posted the other day.

people always think im taller, huh

I have tight traps from doing hair also, i always have my arms up and i tense up, not to mention i think i was using traps for some shoulder work before, and had to learn to relax them.

Lol, I know the form starts to fade sometimes as the weight goes up, so im trying to hold my own.
The bench line is way better then it was a few weeks ago. I love this taping thing and watching it back, sometimes Im like “oh much better” and others i cringe at the ugly.

Wait… your the grammar guy, you must love reading my log. :slight_smile:

Hey beautiful! I’m the last person to talk about bench form, but great idea to tape it from the side. That might really help me too.
