That kind of increase is outstanding! Go eat!0 -
@_incogNEATo_ - I'm trying on the whole eating business. The last thing I need is to miss weight under.0

I missed it
a major role model for sure, and I can't wait to watch her bench in person one day. 0 -
Did anybody else tune in to watch Ray Williams squat 1,005 lbs last night at USAPL Raw Nationals? American record and unofficial world record. That whole meet was inspiring to be honest.2

X2!
Plus, impressive the way you just bounce off the bench when done!

Actually, I'm only around 210. I think I found his weight on some old results when he was smaller.1 -

I sent the video of some girl squatting 547 or whatever- I was effing floored.
Those women make me feel so tiny and little. And equally so hungry for more- I need more. 315 is the immediate goal right now- but god damn- it will not be enough- sites are set higher than 4 plates. Why not.3 -

I think he weighed in around 394. He's actually lost weight since his last meet (a good bit actually). I know I could be a lot stronger at 394 lbs, but this dude's Wilks Score is almost 600! There were SEVERAL lifters with Wilks in the mid to high 500s this weekend. It's so inspiring.0 -

You ain't lying. My ONLY two goals for the coming year are to make Raw Natties 2017 and record a Wilks over 400+ in USAPL. Gonna be a good year! GAINZZ FOR ALLLLLL!!2 -
All this talk reminded me I haven't updated my Wilks since I hit my 300 lb dead. Up to 295 from 288! YES! 300 right around the corner!2

A 4 plate squat is a great goal! I've been chasing a 5 plate squat for a while and I'm still hoping to hit that by December._incogNEATo_ wrote: »_incogNEATo_ wrote: »Did anybody else tune in to watch Ray Williams squat 1,005 lbs last night at USAPL Raw Nationals?

I'd love to compete there too! It won't be next year, but someday hopefully. I'll see how my RPS meet goes in January and then start looking for a local USAPL meet to see how much more I need to work to qualify. Or I can just wait until I'm a Masters lifter and not have to worry about a qualifying total to get into Raw Nationals!1 -
Just starting cycle 3 of 531. Deads today. Top set was 315. All my sets feel extremely light. It was hard to resist throwing on 5plates after watching Raw Natty's all weekend. But I'm taking my time and slowly building the weights.

3 plates first.
Then 4 plates. LOL
I'm sitting at a shallow 275 squat currently. So 3 plates is the next goal- but I've expanded my goals to a 4 plate squat. I see no reason not to.nakedraygun wrote: »
LOL- I wish length of time translated into a bigger bench- to some extent it definitely does- but bah- this damn Vaga*na- always holding me back.
(I just did the math- I've been lifting for almost 15 years- I started in high school I guess- nothing crazy- but we definitely were lifting- can't wait till I can say I've been lifting for 2 decades!!!)1 -
Some dreads from this morning. 180kg (396lbs) x 5. They've been coming along lately, doing a set of 5 everyday for 5 days straight attempting for RPE 8-9.

lol cheers bro, I think it was mostly due to be too lazy to remove the weight plates from the floor

Tried wraps for the first time. Perhaps not the wisest jump from 275 to 315 but duck it
I moved the weight. I'll take it.

... A grindy 335. Failed first then up. I'm disappointed I didn't have lock out but as you can see there are times when I cannot get it off the floor. So I'll take this as a success!

Sorry for the spammy lift videos but whatever... Two plates in my bench bar because a very real reality for me. 200 flew up... So we said effort it. And put up 225. I have no regrets. Other than the mile of daylight under my *kitten* on the last lift but. Whatever. #noshame #assdowntittiesupthatathewaywepressitup

Awesome @JoRocka !!!! We'll take your spam videos any day of the week...and I guess three times on Sunday LOL
Wish I was progressing
I feel like I'm in a holding pattern. A quad injury that doesn't want to go away and my inability to let myself rest long enough for it to actually heal all the way compounded with my on again off again cut just has me stalled.
Restarted SL5x5 as well since that's when I seemed to feel my strongest, so we'll see if that makes a difference. Instead of conventional bench, I'm doing 5x5 lockouts/pin-press/whatever you call them. Basically forcing myself to push from a dead stop at the bottom about an inch or two off the chest. We'll see if that makes a difference in my conventional.0 -
@McCloud33 - you should see an improvement from using pin press. Even a long pause bench still leaves you a good amount of stretch reflex to help get the bar back up. Pin press completely removes that and forces you to use raw strength.0

Just FYI: that's the Spoto Press.
