could it be your lats, not your shoulders, that are holding you back in your bench. I am two years younger than you, but about the same size, and i can use 100-110 pound dbs for 8-12 reps with little cheating. I remember Joey Smith on elitefts saying something about lats helping a lot out of the bottom position.

I don’t mean to be a dick but if you’re late 13s, early 14s you’re going to have to post a video of that for anyone to believe you. I’m working on my chins. I now weigh 175(weighed yesterday). +35=210x3 which is more then my bench. I’m pretty sure the accepted ratio is 1:1.

SO happy about the clean PR.
if people have their v-diet logs in the v-diet forum. My strength sports log should at least have the option of being in said forum.
sorry if this is coming off as rude, but this log was something special to me. I have gotten a lot of good advice, and made pretty good gains since starting it.

Holy fucking PR squats batman. That’s what I call explosion. 255x1 to 285x1 in a week. 255 was TOUGH last week. I even had a friend call depth on all of them, I think the weight increase is from changing my form, I felt a lot of the weight on my glutes and hamstrings instead of my quads.
I’ll start training in gear once I hit 315. I’m thinking the box squats are paying off more then I thought they did. I just needed to adjust to normal backsquats again.
Today:
Bench:

I felt weak today,I didn’t go down at all, but it was hella hard. I stalled in the top 4" of the lift each time. For my friday session I’m gonna do closegrips for the next few weeks to combat this. My shoulder aches when my grip is wide, so I brought it in a wee bit, and the pain was gone.
Military press:
95x5
115x5
135x1PR
135x1
DB rows:
90x5

My gyms DBS only go up to 100, I’m going to go for reps on these now, and do BB rows on fridays.
Chins:
mex5
+25x4
+35x3
Keep in mind I weight about 180 now. So as I get weight, even if the dip belt weight stays the same, I’ve gotten stronger.

Sounds like smart moves on your part, both for the lift and for your shoulder. Congratulations on the press PR.

I can’t deadlift conventional before cleans, only sumo. I may have to change that around next week. I’ve been eating a shit ton of food, and making wicked progress these past few weeks. I’m closing in on 225/315/405. I want to hit 275/450/450 in just my z suit and wraps (no shirts) in competition next year.

My numbers have skyrocketed these past few weeks. In two-three weeks I’ll have another post like this show progress.
