    Thanks for the inclusion Brother 🙌🏼

    Shoulder day... My favorite day
    Yeah I could go deeper 😂... But I did work like 40hrs in the last 3 days... I'm a little tired 😏

    @KickassAmazon76 I attempted solo benching today and got trapped under the bar. I blame you for making it look so easy 🤣🤣 For real though do I get a trophy for my first ever solo bench fail 🤔

    I did hit 5 sets of 5x80 though, without my wraps or belt. so I’m proud regardless 🤣

    I cut the weight way back and used a 3-1-3-1 tempo and could really feel these lighter dumbbells :-)

    There is some pretty epic *kitten* going on in these gifs.

    And I still get nauseous about those stair jumps. Lol

    That is my last leg exercise by design. First rep feels like you’ll never leave the floor. As the sets continue that exercise loosens my legs up. Not exactly sure why that is. I have legit love hate relationship with lunges and squats. Thank you both for your comment.

    I love this thread because you're all strong and attractive but I also hate this thread because it guilted me into getting off my lazy *kitten* and working out tonight, which I specifically did not want to do

    I love this! Does that mean we'll be seeing a GIF from you later? 😊

    I just barely had the motivation to do it, I absolutely did not record it :D

    Well.. Glad you did it and we'll hope for the next time! 😁

    It’s nice to see some new participants in here. This is hands down the best thread on mfp. All of you guys and girls are supportive, genuine, and straight up awesome.
    I’m posting the same ol same ol with some slight variations on hitting from behind. Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend.

    You all have a way of making me want to punch things 🤣🤣 and I mean that in the best way possible ☺️

    Thank you! Getting that 5th step is gonna happen. I think I could do it now if I done this exercise first. There’s a method to the madness though but it will come. No promises on hurting myself though, that may happen 😝

    Also... 5@240lb PR. 😁

    Yes, I know I slightly rounded in the 4th rep. So I reset for 5th.

    So... Here's a link.. Because of what went down in the other thread, I want real time feedback.

    Squats. Last set (of 5). First 4 were 5reps. Last one was 185x9. (really trying to build up to 5x5@200)

    Am I dropping too fast? I don't feel like I am. I feel like I'm in control.

    Really open to feedback from the ones I trust.

    I do not think you’re dropping too fast. You are not getting sloppy with it. I am by far not an expert on squats. The general tempo I try to keep is a 2 count on the negative.

    Be proud of yourself. You kick *kitten*.

    No it’s perfect! And the bar isn’t unstable on your back either. Tbh my coach wishes I would move like this, I’m constantly getting critiques for “hanging in the hole too long.” You are descending with proper force and that’s why your rebound is so smooth 👌🏻

    The only critique I’d give, and it’s actually not critique bc I’m jealous, is you do go beyond what’s needed for depth. You could def pass a lift with slightly less, but it’ll improve strength when not hitting new numbers.

    Haha my coach always told me that too. That I didn't need to go so deep. But I was always scared that if I was competing I'd miss it by a hair... And that would suck soooo bad.

    Not that I'm competing anytime soon... But if I keep gaining on my lifts, maybe I will compete again.

    And thank you! I kind of needed reassurance.❤️

    Thank you also, @kinetixtrainer2. 😊

    I appreciate you both!
