Throw up some videos in the powerlifting forum of you using 90%+ of your max and I’m POSITIVE those guys will get those numbers up

I’ll have to take some videos Monday, max effort day for squats and deads.

Sounds good, thanks for the advice guys

OHP: 58.5kg x 7

275X7 ultra wide sumo deadlifts
40X13 arch back extension DB held zercher style

That’s about it for personal records. I hit a 415X2 reverse band conventional pull that day, and a bunch of other stuff.

I also promise I didn’t stiff leg the sumo deads again. :wink: I actually remembered to drop my balls to the bar while pushing my knees out.

Another amazing day for conventional deadlifts.

171kg x 10.

Straps on last 4 reps.

high bar squat 165x17,7,5,7,7,7 - one minute breaks in between sets.

My plan was to go for 165x30 for the first set but it was hot, I was tired and my legs wouldn’t fire… It wasn’t even that hard, they simply wouldn’t do what I wanted them to do. :confused: Still, nice volume work.

515lbs Deadlift for a double. Finally getting a respectable pull.

Kristi Squat 130lbs for 8 a 2 rep PR if she can keep this up come November she is going to smoke her 185lbs Squat goal.

Close grip bench press (touch and go) 230X1
DB neutral grip floor press 70X13
snatch grip bent over row 165X16

Those are the notable ones from me today. I don’t know how big of a PR the close grip bench is other than it is a massive personal record. It is the heaviest I have ever benched touch and go (and close grip is weaker than the other grips). I attribute the sudden spike in bench strength to using bands, and over head pressing. :slight_smile:

3s paused bench: 86kg x 7

315lbs Back Squat for 19. I hate that I can’t focus on these enough to count haha I probably would have found my nuts and hot my 20. Either way 2 rep PR at 20lbs less body weight. Video in log and Facebook soon.

19… FML, and to think I was stoked to post about doing 315 for 5 today.

Yeah me too haha.

Apokolys just keep going man one step at a time a PR is a PR. Dont compare your number to others right now your doing this for you not for anyone else so as long as your beating yourself you can’t really ask for more.

Haha it’s all good dude. If I actually let my ego get bruised that easily, there’s no way I could’ve continued training in a PL gym for the past school year. Sadly, most guys don’t seem to think that way and would rather walk across the hall to the “fitness center” and be big fish in a small pond.

I’m still happy about the PR, this was more my way of saying, “dayum! 315 for 19! What a beast…”
