Moisties be all over AC.

You guys make my heart melt.

You’ll get a shout out when I see some vidz <3
I take it my low creepy RGBP pedo-shoutout wasn’t good enough for you?
Clean looking quite sessi really. Nothing majorly wrong at all, you seem to cut the first pull a bit short and not fully triple extend (ie. after you bring the bar off the floor up to waist level, just before you pull under it into a front squat). So to avoid this focus on really having your hips brought fully through before you start to dive under the bar to start the second pull. Do this with a light weight where you focus on bringing the hips through and sort of bump the bar with your hips before you start your second pull. Over exaggerate this at a lighter weight to get a feel for the position, it will be less pronounced when you go heavier. You could also do with staying tighter in the hole once you have the bar in the bottom squat clean position. But there are minor little tweaks. Solid lifting mayne!

Benching started off badly, but got a little better at the end. Benching isn’t where it should be, but I’m optimistic about improving it.
SSB lunge
Ab wheel
Dunno if you’re looking for feedback, but your knees are caving in coming out of the hole. That’s not ideal.

I was gonna say the same thing.
Solid work though buddy, keep it up.

Feedback is perfectly fine. I don’t quite see the caving myself, but that’s not to say I can’t pay attention to it more and work on it.
Thanks for pointing that out guys. I gotta stay on top of the little things.

Yeah its not drastic caving, but the initial drive out the hole you can see your knees shoot inward but you quickly catch and correct them.
Left side of your body is less tight than your right on the bench.

Thanks for the heads up. Tightness was definitely an issue.

In other news, it’s now summer vacation. But that’s not to say I’ll be sitting around doing nothing. In fact this summer looks like it’ll be quite busy. Given that I’ll probably be making a shift to a more conventional eating modality and will have to give some thought as to how I’ll tailor my training to my schedule. Either way I’m looking forward to this summer.

These were atrocious. I probably should’ve squatted today instead of pulled, seeing as my back was a bit sore. On the brightside I felt like dropping the weight, or just cutting it short, but did what I set out to do.
Military press
3x175 @8
6x195 @10 —> HUGE PR, upon unracking I just felt like I had to go for a PR
A military press PR somewhat makes up for today’s awful pulling.
Must… not… let aqua’s military catch up to my bench… great PR
Hey, idea here. Pull less often, but heavier. Just saying.
