We work hard to develop our lifts. We seek critiques, and we study online to learn more -- to get stronger and more efficient on our lifts. We follow other great lifters on IG or YouTube and analyze their video. In the scheme of things, we realize what we do in the weight room doesn't change the world, but it does change us.
Show your best lifts, because on no other website will any one else give a care, and certainly not your friends on Facebook.
Let's talk shop.

You broke the 4th Wall! Nice lift. Garage basement? I like the homemade squat rack in the background.2 -

Mostly race season. Didn't lift much last summer/fall while I was racing, and have been slow getting back into lifting this off season (for a variety of reasons).

Your squat looks good. Reason for the trap bar over barbell deadlifts?0 -
Oh that's right. I've read that elsewhere on the boards on the racing you are into.nakedraygun wrote: »

My bench is sucky right now too - but that's because I'm working through some shoulder tendentious.0 -

Yep, I built a squat/bench rack, and made the deadlift risers out of plywood. All my weights are kijiji special, so they're max 25lbs. Takes forever to load/unload them, but they were cheap!3 -
That sounds great, nice to see some enthusiasm when it comes to lifting
Keep it up!!!3 -

No real reason for trap over barbell...that was just what I had done that day. Right now I'm doing 5/3/1 BBB and when I do my 5x10 sets I use the trap bar instead of the regular just because I don't tear up my shins as bad. I like the variety. I'm doing my heavy deads tomorrow so maybe I'll go ahead and record it. Shooting for 330x7...or maybe I'll just try and work up to a 1RM instead.3 -
I dig it. I have a gym in my garage that while its -40 below I am not using. Can't wait for the weather to warm up. This summer I plan to build strongman equipment and I have a prowler that I am building.MireyGal76 wrote: »nakedraygun wrote: »MireyGal76 wrote: »This was my best dead weight (200lbs).

Ah, that makes sense. I am running 531 with BBB (12 week challenge) currently now, or will after my last meet in February when I can finally finish the last training block. Using the trap bar is a good idea, my next block of 5x10 deadlifts has me volume sets of 330 lbs. Might have to try the trap bar.
Good luck on the volume set tomorrow!

PSH! Only the lock out. My 4th attempt got stuck just below the knees.2 -
Just some light technique work from yesterday, snatches from the hang.0

These are my best lifts to date:
405 lbs. Squat:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Sfo2Ix7g5o
My best bench press is 305 lbs, but I didn't get any video of it, so all I have this on of this one at 255 lbs.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Knet-jY89aU
525 lbs. deadlift:

Your bar speed was quick though! In competition who cares how pretty it is, as long as you get it done and it counts!nakedraygun wrote: »Not the prettiest I've done, but my favorite.https://youtu.be/nna2Rpj_lA4

Thanks! I alternate the volume sets (work bench/volume OHP, work squat/volume DL, etc...) so it's the 1+ week of 5/3/1 for DL and 5x10 volume on squat....so 185lb 5x10. I can't imagine 5x10 with 330 on the DL. I could maybe do 5x5 with 330.
I'm just trying to make it through the end of March on this cut and then I might actually try the 20 rep squat program for 6 weeks on a bulk. We'll see.0 -

Looks like you lost your grip at the end. Do any grip training? I really like grip training.Elegra2006 wrote: »Yuck form but my favourite lift and current PB - 287lbs.

Before I started on 531, I had a rep max of 365 lbs 4x8 so I think I should get through this, maybe, but I do my volume sets as deficit deadlifts. I may need to rethink this next training block.nakedraygun wrote: »

@nakedraygun Nah, didn't really lose my grip, just minimising time spent holding the bar
Forgot to mention that the yellow headband was the trainers and he said I had to wear it for PB luck - it worked!!2
