I lose the bar on the last rep lol.

 

[miaou]

You came up and the bar came up with you.

Therefore, no rep was failed.

 

[Obscure Terror]

I suppose you're right but I'm still lowering the weight by 5kg for a cycle :icon_chee

Solid work, brodda.

Thanks bro

Silly squat fail. Typical mistakes I do when squatting heavy:
- I dont take it seriously enough, and end up failing
- I crumble underneath the weight and loose confidence when it feels heavy
This was a combination of the two.
Put on my balls that fell off during the fail, and tried again.
First single was a grinder, 2nd was ok, 3rd felt really good.
Bench felt good. Short rest time also.

Overall, fairly good day. Back positioning was pretty good on teh deadlifts. Gets worse when fatigue sets in, though. Ill keep working on it.
Bench felt OK, lots of volume today.

Good job with those singles.

Failing a heavy single and then making it on the next attempt is srs bzns.

Deadlifts to the knees and up are paused DLs? If so, that sounds terrible. Why do that to yourself?!

Really? Well, alright then
Yes, its a real bitch. I cant move too much either, because the weights will fall off. So I have to be very careful

The heaviest I can go is 50kg (two 25plates), no way I can add three plates.
Would be awesome to do a standing rollout, but damn they are difficult.
Thanks!

shiiiiiiit +40 ab rolls! im jelly

Im jealous of most of the stuff you put up, So GOOD!
lol, thanks man

I find it easier to load the weights on my back when I bring them around from the side instead of trying to go over my head. Might be worth checking out.
