No lol hamstring is A1. Technique is off on DL is all. Decent bench gains though

Yeah they did look easy. If anything you wasn’t looking up quite as much as a couple of weeks ago. But hey what do I know.
Keep believe in the Sheiko, if not for anything else for the rest of us. We need proof that the damn thing works.

Easy maybe but not as clean smooth or whatever other sexy terms as I’d like

Your technique of the sumo deadlift has improved dramatically and visibly.

You’re doing a weird bridge. I recommend watching on a video by Krawczyk:

you ever gonna compete?

Maybe it is a bit weird but so far it’s the only way I’ve found where I can set my shoulders right. Setting up with my hands on the bar goes terribly and I end up with a worse set up overall. I’ve tried half a dozen other set ups but mostly they just held my bench back because I couldn’t set my shoulders well.

I’m not really keen to change it… unless there’s some disadvantages to doing things this way. I can keep experimenting if there’s a good reason to change the set up

i was gonna say fuck the bench build the deadlift…
But in that case.

Calves are now my priority. So i can rock board shorts

Unsolicited Opinion.

The pause deadlifts are teaching you to use more leg, and stay more upright in your deadlift. Instead of leaning over, and using lots of back, then legs, you’re using more legs and less back to start. With your improved technique, by the time you lock your knees out, the lift is basically over.

Check out your vids from November. You were more bent over or bent forward to start. When your knees locked out, you still had a long way to go to finish the lift. Look how far you used to lean back. You almost sling shotted backwards. Now, with improved technique, the lift is shorter. I think this is messing with your timing a little bit, (specifically when knees lock out and when hips come forward) causing your reps to feel inconsistent. A little more practice with non maximal weights should help you iron it out.

Sheiko 3 Day Under 80kg W3D3

Good Friday and first chance to bounce back from Wednesday’s disappointing sesh so gonna make it a good one. Bluetooth speaker on and first up is the Animal by Disturbed.

Squat

Bench Press
Close Grip Bench

Some more bench work today nothing special. Feeling pretty good though because the weights feeling light in hands. 2 x 5 feeling like a bunch of warm ups.

Because @gaelic keeps bullying me and saying my bridge/set up is weird lol I tried out some other ways and this one feels promising.

I did some sets both ways and they both feel about the same.

Close grippy bench for assistance ez.

Chest Flyes
Push Ups

Pull Ups
Leg Press

Scoop of Gatorade powder to keep me going lol

Cable Rows
Side Delts
Curls
Rear Delts

Gruelling session but like in a good way lol and back home to smash a big shake because I didn’t get much protein in earlier in the day
