Oblivian's Adaptations

[squatsquatsquat]

Your progress is unreal, man.

 

[Oblivian]

Have you ever tried jerks? I want to see you put 300 overhead...

I haven't really tried them yet. I was hoping to take my Push Press as far as I could. I think progress is likely to slow on it, so I may give jerks a shot.

Your progress is unreal, man.

Thanks. Programming has been good lately. I'm just hoping to ride this PR wave as long as possible.

Nice PRs! 195 SOHP is more than you're BW right?

Did you ever order that inzer belt? I see that you're still using that Valeo belt

I'm weighing around 185 lbs right now. I ended up ordering this belt: http://www.bobsbelts.com/images/OriginalLrg.jpg It has not arrived yet.

 

[hatchoo]

Nice. I ended up getting the inzer lever belt, but i think i'll still use my Valeo belt for bench. I haven't really tried benching with a belt so i don't know if it helps

 

[XTrainer]

Nice deadlift.

Sorry 'bout your jump rope

 

[Oblivian]

Nice deadlift.

Sorry 'bout your jump rope

More PR's to come once my vids upload. It's been a good couple months.

Nice work! Good work w/your bench arch--is that a new thing, or something you've always been able to do? I fail at this.

Nice squatage, too.

 

[BrassBalls]

Man you have just been a pr machine lately. Great work.

The bench arch has taken A LOT of work. I was even doing stretches like bridges for a while to do it. This is my old form: YouTube - Bench Press: 245 lbs x 1

Man you have just been a pr machine lately. Great work.

Thank you. Lulz at the new av.

Wow, the 405! Sweet!

[Corrosion]

Whoa.

Genetic limit on the bench and great squatting.

Excellent job man.

 

[Oblivian]

Thanks. PR progress is bound to slow soon. I'm just milking it for as long as I can.
