you will be baffled by how much the form change effects your leg development and overall strengthRichard91 wrote:o yea biceps look fuller and i really happy with the chest.
looks bigger already.
I like the new squats im doing. Little less weight than usual but im going below parallel. I feel this alot more and i feel like i can break my bad form pr soon with correct form squats!!
its worth taking the step back for enormous progress, trust me.
Workout 3 Yesterday
Bench 185x3 195x2
Pullovers 65x3
Last time i did doubles i did 185x2 and maxed 205x1. I guess i can call this my first PR. did 195 because i thought i could pump out 3 but 2 was still exciting for me.
Squat 205x3
SLDL 185x3
Squats feel good. Going lower than i used to 155 and 205 feels the same for some reason little sticking at the bottom but when O drive the heels it always comes up. Wanted to try 225 but my partner had to get up at 5 so he left early. Wish i coulda done 20 more lbs but would rather not look like a fool rolling out from under the weight lol.
Bench 135x6x6
Cable Curls 50x6x6
Incline Press 135x6x6
Preacher70x6x6
Started lower on all of my edt blocks. I do keep a running log in excel also so i know where i will be at next time. Better to start slow then do 2 reps every set.
Deload on thurs and if i get 225 on bench on sunday i will do a lap around the gym

Sorry guys..
I was supposed to go to the gym today but tis been very busy. Worked for my uncle yesterday for 12 hours standing by a moonbounce in the sun. Needless to say I forgot the sunscreen and am now more red than I think I have ever been. The thought of putting and unloaded bar on my back let alone 225+ just is not gunna happen.
Glad I got the off time tho. My buddy dad went in for surgery thursday. He had prostate cancer so I went with my friend to visit his dad on fathers day. If I didnt get a chaance for the gym at least I got to help somebody!
Will be going tommorow regardless of the damn sunburn stinging.

Awesome! And great call on playing it conservative with 215 on the bench. Your sticking point is the bottom, so take care to work some wide grip benches in during the first set or two on the GLP. This builds tremendous starting strength in the lift.
And not too shabby on the squat! Is that a new PR??

Yes they both are. 215 is new max on bench. and 265 is new max on squat.
I can't remember what my old squat was but this is with the correct form so it feels better regardless.
On the widegrip bench how wide do you reccomend. just outside the notches or as far as you can go?
I usually do the sets of 8 or 6 wide where I put my hands outside the notches.

I could not agree any more with this statement. As soon as I corrected my form I started getting a whole new soreness after training. I developed new parts of my quads that were never activated previously with my bad form.Big.jazayrli wrote:you will be baffled by how much the form change effects your leg development and overall strengthRichard91 wrote:o yea biceps look fuller and i really happy with the chest.
