No Ur not enhanced. Your bench looks frickin enhanced and take that as a compliment. You immediately defended yourself comprehensively. Yea squat and deadlift lag behind but thatās comparatively
I know you mentioned the language differences before, thatās what weād call banter in the UK, just having a laugh in a way thatās a bit rude to the recipient (and you in this case!), but really offered in a spirit of respect and friendship.
3 plates club I suppose. Funny thing is I live in a town where thereās about 6000 people and I reckon Iām the only 1 currently. Have to travel to find another natural who could. Someone my age,quite a way. Someone under 95 kgs even further. This guys size I reckon Iād have to travel hundreds of kms.
Is this similar to taking a piss?
Haha was that intentionally wrong? If not hilariously no that means to urinate.
But if youād said taking the ⦠Then youād be bantering, yup.
It was not intentionally wrong. Just wrong. Lol.
Dang it. I need to start watching my British shows again.
Thank you man, I appreciate that! And LOL
Yeah, thatās not a risk Iām willing to take. And if the range of motion is standardized, even better. Canāt wait to see what happens in 2026!!
Thank you, thatās a big compliment. Just trying to set myself up well for a lifetime of gains if possible! Hope I represent the younger guys as good as I can!

Thank you! Hopefully one day I can say the same about my squat and deadlift lol. Bit by bit!
I love this about you, British humour is the best.
1/2/25 - Legs
Paused Back Squat - 185 x 10, 185 x 10
Romanian Deadlift - 225 x 12, 225 x 12
Summary
I donāt know why but recently my leg days have not been good (which is not great considering hitting legs is going to be a huge deal to reach my T-ransformation goals. Today I woke up with a pretty nice headacheā¦I donāt think Iām coming down with anything since I feel fine this evening, but this afternoon was rough and I felt pretty mid, enough to only do two movements today.
Settled on pause squats to get a bit better at the bottom position, I think I could have had better form but itās a start. Just getting more comfortable with doing the movement regularly now.
Also did RDLs since it wasnāt max deadlift day and I wanted my heaviest hinge today instead. Pushed it and added a rep, so next time Iāll add five or ten pounds and take it out for a spin.
Kinda just maintenance today and getting a bit more for squats. Not bad but not greatā¦hoping legs start to go better for me once I can do proper volume on them again, I really donāt like these minimalist style workouts but better than nothing, right?
Tomorrow Iām planning on a gym workout with a friend, off Sunday, then back to the top of my split on Monday. Should be a good weekend. ![]()
I read this whole thing. Still have no idea what it means. ![]()

Is this an option for a mobile device or is this for a computer? (Your first assignment as my internet son, teaching me how to use technology. My actual son will be appreciative of the break)
Hit reply to a post, go to the top bar, hit the ā+ā button on the very end, and then hit quote whole post:
Looks like this^
Itās a good way to see how anything is formatted and how to do it yourself! ![]()
For example, if you do that to this post, you should be able to see that the formatting for a dividing line is three asterisks in a row on their own line. ![]()
Works on both mobile and PC, on mobile you do have to swipe/scroll the top bar to get to the + button all the way at the end, fyi.

I think I should sign off for the night. I think Iām getting dumber as the night goes on. (See my above interaction with with @alex_uk .)
No, youāre learning new and cool things!!
Also to be fair I was a Moderator of a Discourse forum while I was in college so Iām very well versed in formatting things here. XD
I always wondered how you hid the summary!!! Lol.
I do it so often I can pretty much just type the formatting from memory instead of using the button haha.
Summary
I have a friends whoās husband is my go to guy for my phone. He likes to make fun of me for being old and allergic to tech. Heās not wrong ā¦
No problem, I got you internet mom!
Here to help out with the goated and lit formatting, or however the youth say it now (I might be youngish but Iām not getting any younger lol)
You da best sweet pea! ![]()
