thanks man I dont think Im gonna do a 1rm for a couple weeks tho I dont think I can handle another missed 300


on a side note Im going to change my bench form

currently my grip is 26 inches apart with 14.5" rom

Im changing it to 31.5 inches apart to 12" rom

I have a 8 week bench program I made my self and hopefully it will take me a little bit past 300 like 310-315 would be nice

Do you do Max Effort and Dynamic Effort days? I haven’t read through your whole log, just noticed some days you bench very high reps, others low. Btw, you are strong beyond belief for your age!

Quick question. If you’re writing things such as “slightly cheating”,“cheat set”,“cheated the last few reps” constantly, why don’t you fix it. If you have to cheat to do the work then you’re not at the point physically where you can do it. Just train till you can doing non “cheat sets” and do every rep in form. Having to cheat a bit on the last rep of a set or something is one thing, constantly writing off multiple reps and even close to a set as cheating is another.

I always try to use more weight on excercises if I have to throw in some body motion to help me get the weight up I do it because being a noob I dont have the mind muscle coordination some one big would have there for its better for me to just keep useing more weight for me more weight = bigger muscles

the side raises in the last workout were pretty good form accept for the 45’s my arms were a little more bent that usual and i was rocking back and fward a bit but then again Im still hitting my shoulders

I have been through the use perfect form phase before I came here what happened was I ended up useing the same weight for the same reps with perfect form since i started cheating on excercises a bit I can now use way more weight for perfect form.

any way

shoulders 21 3/4
arms 16.5+ 17.25 they got smaller
neck 17.5- I belive
6ft tall
weight not completle sure scale is broken

little under 240

in my smaller pics where I weigh 200 I have a 40- inch waiste

so basicaly 40lbs gain and 2+ inches on my waiste gain not the best I gained alot of fat when I did the bench program wich was useless

NOW
BF 27 174lbm

BEFORE
BF 24 152lbm

considering I dont have enough muscle right now and I have alot of fat Im gonna drop down to a 40" waiste and continue on my misson

I like 40" because I dont have to drop my calories so low I lose muscle and Its a nice solid number pretty easy to attain plus I wouldnt mind seeing what I look like before and after wise

once I get to a 40" waiste it will be back to the usual only I will try to incorperate more bodybuilding into my workouts

to lose weight Im just gonna up my protein and only have carbs before and after I lift.
