Almost had 10 on the bench, but my shoulder cut out on me. It’s getting better every workout though. Brought my grip in closer on the Kinda Close Grip Bench. Shoulder didn’t hurt near as much as last time. Keeping it back better as the scapular muscles get stronger.

Nice set Skid. I’m seeing the same thing. Bringing in the grip has helped my shoulders. I’m also dropping the weight lower on my chest. It seems a lot easeir if I hit the bar just below my nipple. I also seem to generate more velocity that way as well. [/quote]

I’ve got the reverse problem. Bringing in the grip was hell on my shoulder. Had to do wide close grip bench last bench session and I can’t bring the bar too close to my chest or bad things happen. It’s working itself out though. I have my grip a bit closer - about a half thumb length off the smooth of the bar. I shouldn’t have boosted the poundage so much today as it kinda defeats the purpose of strengthening the triceps and the scapular muscles by forcing a crummy movement pattern just to get the weight up.

Nice work, strong pressing…
your arch is really good too.

Nice form all around…

and dare I say your rack is versitile.

Thanks 63G, you press-monster!

Great pressing skidwinkle.

I am still deloading in my Jabba The Hutt fashion. As I always say, make up for not lifting by not dieting.

I’m gonna try to get in the gym and do some real light stuff, cuz wave 2 for me starts on Thursday.

May all your waves give you good rides…

Didjoo check out virtualmeet.net, yet? Deadlift meet scheduled for the 16/17th. I haven’t signed up because it throws off my training schedule.

Yeah. That’s it…

I keep having this bad dream:

I’m in a dark place with cartoons being shown on the wall. and the cartoons get more and more inane. All the while I hear a deep voice, whispering at first, “Taxation without representation,” over and over and getting louder until it’s a shout.

When I wake up - my pockets are empty and my voice is gone. Maybe I’m not waking up soon enough.

No, that sounds more like a waking dream, or rather, something you are actually experiencing, but so horrific it seems like it couldn’t be real.

As usual awesome work.

Got to hate those reccurring dreams. Especially the weird ones, just mess with the mind.

Be glad that voice didn’t say “A penny saved is a government oversight.” Wait, maybe that is another nightmare… No I think it is current reality… :frowning:

Ah come on, that was 9.5 reps.

What kind of cartoons?

If you factor in the time component, it was actually 12.141592. I think I get an extra rep for doing it with my eyes crossed too.

The cartoons? Well, they look like japanimation TV News.

So, pi + 9? I can’t help it, I’m such a nerd.

I was hoping you’d see it.

I caught it, but I didn’t want to say anything in case Skid would be embarrassed he only got it out to the millionths place.

That was kind of you not to mention it.

Until now.

awesome. this is like
and skid sfp is kind like that.

the ukraine strength type at the OTC
wrote some crazy alagbraic equation on the board and yelled
“sinclair co-elephant”

lots of foot shuffling…and coughs.

I can figure out anything with amperage
harmonics with voltage- mired shifts with color tempurature, can count down backwards via time code but math makes me panic

If you can do any kind of calculations with time code, that says something about your math skillz.
