Lower back and posterior chain take a while to build up. Plus, they're the muscles you can't really see so sometimes it's hard to tell if you're stronger or if it's in your mind or if your technique sucks. Just keep at it. Deadlift once a week. Low rep + heavy or high rep + not as heavy. Either way just make sure you kick ass and keep pushing yourself to the next level. Read Starting Strength if you haven't yet. Best book. |
any tips for bench? my bench rarely ever goes up. i'm doing them 3x5 every monday and friday i'm making an arch so my lower back is off the bench, i'm squeezing my glutes and my shoulder blades are pulled back a bit yet my bench is so inconsistent... some days i can do 135 no problem, other days i can only get like 3 reps. i feel my bench lacking a lot compared to my deadlifts and squats |
^i feel the same way. Just keep pushing yourself to do more. |

And you only do 3 sets of 5. Try increase either rep or sets when appropriate, and don't be afraid to increase gradually Worse case scenario....you yell, watch out, "Weights dropping" and slide the weights off. Nothing wrong with it, at least you put it all out there. Just out of curiosity, you likely do a boatload more of squats eh? like 5x5, and more than twice a week? Because from memory, you are near 3 plates at about a year of gym. That's good stuff, but you were likely overemphasizing squats, compromising bench. |

Here's what helped me: -Drop sets every other week -Focus on the ceiling, not the bar -Touch your shirt and not your chest -Get the right grip: http://www.violentheropowerlifting.c...-4-the-bar.htm -Work on close grip bench press/shoulder press -Suck a large amount of air into your stomach and flex abs, go down then push up, release some air at the top |

should i do dumb bell exercises? i go there on saturdays too, but i don't do any heavy things, i just try to do high rep bench and some experimenting with dumb bells. i had the weights dropping scenario happen back in like november when i was benching 15s. i didn't clip it and all the weights fell haha, ever since that day i clip everything |

And you never clip the bar during bench lol That's a hazard for yourself. easy way if you have no spotter (and can't get it up) is to simply slide one end of the weights off, and other side. |

the video i posted of myself benching i am in a very smooth rhythm and very steady, i always arch my head what most ppl would say that is a big no no but its always been a little habit of mine |

u mite be like dafuq... but back then i did 300-400 pushups a day, sets of 25 reps, and as I walked around the house i'd do sets of 25s.. the chest likes it when you work it to failure, and with such a practical exercise like the pushup, you could do it literally anywhere you want.. it's not like training back where you have to have a chinup bar, or some weight that you want to pull.. |
finally hit 415 deadlift @ 160 btw. next projects 225 c&j, 285bench, 450 squat |
don't clip the barbell during bench? How is that a hazard? Ask for a spot if you can't do it. |

Anyone? |
That's more of a meal replacement shake. It has different sources of protein + carbs, so if you're looking for something that digests quick post workout, it won't be the best. IMO protein is protein, if you want cheap whey, grab a tub of Kaizen when on sale at Costco. /broscience Quote:

I dislike the one I have now because it doesn't mix well. I have had good experience with syntha-6 and ON. I just want to find the best price. |
Would rather clip the weights while doing bench and do the roll of shame. |
omg...DOMS is killing me....mother of god. back is sore as fuck. |
Did the 315lb Deadlift for reps again. Wore better shorts and got 12 before my grip failed :( will post vid in a bit. Berz out. |
