Thank you so much!!jennacole12 wrote: »Your height combined with that depth amaze me 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 And I agree excellent bench form 👌🏻
Awww thank you! Tall and long limbed does not work as efficiently for heavy lifting. Lol.
I'll never break any class records, but I still love feeling stronger that I was! I hope to have quads as impressive as yours one day! 😊❤️
I can imagine 😂 at least you never have to do this 👇🏻 I literally have to climb and modify gym equipment daily 🙄 we’re completely opposite 🤣
I had started a response and I get got distracted before I saved.
LOL yes we have height related issues but on opposite ends for sure. For example... I can't do standing ohp in my house because none of my ceilings are high enough. Haha.
I also cannot find anything tall enough to allow me to do a full hang chinup. I hung a bar outside and even that is too low. (plus I will NOT go out when it's cooler than sweater weather lol)
And for the record... Your back is gorgeous!
Thank you!!! It’s funny bc I have never even considered those things could be issues 😂2 -

Awesome weight to bodyweight ratio! Hope to see it soon! 😁

Yes!!! It took me time and some help from @kinetixtrainer2 😂. Use GIPHY to turn your video to a gif, click upload to GIPHY, then select the gif, then the little paper airplane below the gif, select copy gif link. Then when you post it on here add [ img ] and [ /img ] (without the spaces between the brackets) on the left and right side of the url.2 -
In order to write down step by step instructions I had to make one 🤣 so here you go... 195 x 5, I’m 122 my overall squat PR thus far is 210, hoping to get 220 in the next few months.

@jennacole12
You. Are. A. Beast!
When I grow up, I wanna be like you! 😁
I just did the math... I'd have to be able to squat 287x5...
Yep, I'm never growing up! 😂
Seriously... You are so amazing!0 -

Not going to lie you have some insane strength. I can hold my own in the gym, but I'm seriously jealous! Keep it up you're doing AMAZING things!
Sidenote: Do you like the knee wraps? I've been debating buying some but always get mixed feelings.
Anyway keep it up!0 -

Ahh thank you ☺️ I actually was in body building prep when quarantine started and my comp got canceled. I was so sad I switched over to power lifting and now I’m hooked 😂
Have you tried knee sleeves! I bet it would boost your numbers a bit!3 -

Thank you!!! I freaking love them! But only for a PR and I will warn you idk how one would wrap them themself, my coach has to do it bc it requires a lot of strength... idk if it would be as effective if I attempted them on my own. For my own PR attempts without him I 1. Never go as high 2. always use my belt and compression knee sleeves.2 -

This video is a 255lbs bench. I have since then benched 265... I just don’t have it on camera. 155lbs body weight. I have been working on slowing down my reps, everyone seems to be tearing pecks these days. I am aiming for a 1025 total in may.

Great lifts and strength. Awesome to see!0 -
AMRAP at light weight tonight. 25* at 225. I might have had one more in the tank but the form was failing at the end. Could only get 10ish in the GIF by speeding it up. Felt good to be back in the gym.
*ETA- watched video and counted. Apparently I was counting faster than I was lifting. It was 21 not 25. Now I’ll have to go for 25 next time.7 -
All you cats are looking strong 💪3

Great work!!! I am definitely not moving that much weight with that much explosive power.0 -
