I agree. Squat depth looks good.
So you’re doing hybrid 5/3/1 now?[/quote]
Pretty much just squatting with 5/3/1…I need some structure

How did base building work for you?
Didn’t you make some good progress with that?

I liked it a lot and still am sticking with it! I can’t really give it a fair evaluation tho cause this is my 20th week but 15 of those weeks were on a calorie deficit.

We won a 3 on 3 today/tonight, went 5-1. Came home and weighed 191 so idk how tmrw is gonna go…probably nothing an extra caffeine tablet can’t fix
Week 20 day 4
Fuhking forgot my shoes so went barefoot
Squat
Bar x a lot
(135x5)x2
(185x3)x2
(225x1)x2
255x1
275x1 add belt
305x1
335x1 add wraps
366xfail…this is my first missed lift in 20 weeks, I tried to hit 5 singles with 275 benching and I only got 3…I could of punched a small child on their birthday right after they got their first bike after this
300 will be my training max for the first cycle of 5/3/1
Here’s 335
I hate myself
First just saying what’s up since you where in my log earlier.
Second all those squats are looking good! Even the 365 miss has a lot of positives. Good depth, good speed out of the hole. Get that one out of your head and you can definitely hit 365 next time. Hell you could probably hit it next week.

Had a simple, dumb question. What are you trying to accomplish with your lifting?

Ya like you said, I’m 20 years old I like/want being able to take off my shirt around famales and looking average. Overall I would say…
- Look like I lift…take that how you want too.
- I play alot of basketball and I like being a physical guard so strength is a priority but so is being able to move.
- I never plan on competing…maybe a powerlifting meet if I felt like I could go and not embarrass myself. [/quote]
How often you hoop? I have been playing a few times a week now, but I am lucky to get once a week during the semester.
Thanks for the positive comments. I play in a league Saturday morning, Sunday night, and play once during the week.
Yeah man don’t think about the miss. But it was odd, I really thought you had blasted past what’s usually the sticking point , for me at least. It honestly looked like you just needed to push your hips through and you would have had it. Give it a bit and you’ll definitely hit the 365 easy.
Need practice in the wraps… they look very loose, doesnt look like youre getting much of anything out them… also cant tell how you wrap but they lookv very bunched up which is not helping
Other than that I would say dont worry about it. Youve been cutting and havent taken any heavy attempts in awhile… Happens. Put some more heavy work in and youll have that no problem
Thanks fellas…just gotta remember now to build strength and not test it cause I know I’m gonna want to try it again soon lol

Must be nice to have leagues. I have just been playing pick-up games which can be very hit or miss. Sometimes it’s great. Other times no one is in the gym or worse yet the gym is too crowded and you have to wait 60 min to play a 15 min game. At least when no one is there you can shoot around.

True you need to be taking time to build. You never get anywhere if you are always testing, but you can set new maxes with jokers on 5/3/1. I see you are running 5/3/1 for the squat. Don’t force it, but if you are feeling it some day cap your PR set and get some heavy work in.
