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.

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!
I also relate, like usual I’m on the opposite end of that and I’m always a hair too high with depth (like the gif below). It’s something I’ve been working on for years, when I started It was awful, I didn’t even really squat, I could only sort of push my *kitten* back 😂😂😂. It took a lot of frustration, yoga and PT even to make any progress. Someone once told me I’d never squat bc of my extreme mobility issues. I’m just stubborn and have been stretching nightly since 🤣. Most frustrating was everyone would be like no just get lower, not understanding I physically couldn’t 🙄. I think that’s why I hang in the hole too long, I try to make sure I feel that uncomfortable sort of unhinge in my hips. I’d much rather go deeper than needed than too high. I video every squat just to check depth and repeat until I’m satisfied.
Also, you should compete again!! Pick a date and go for it!! I love having the target date to work towards, it always pushes me, also stresses me out but that’s a whole other thread 😂.

It could be the angle... But is she were in a powerlifting meet, the side judge may say she didn't hit parallel. It'd be REALLY close, almost too close to call... But in that case it sucks so bad to hit a PR and not get those white lights because of one degree.
My coach had me set up a massive medicine ball on top of a bunch of plates where parallel would be, and then I had to squat til my butt touched it. That was the best way I learned how parallel felt... But now I just go as low as my body lets me. 😁2 -

Yea my coach would have passed it, I just think it’s so close that a judge could technically red light it. And I feel like if it’s a clear miss you’d understand the fail but this close would infuriate me.2 -

It’s something I’ve been working on for years, when I started It was awful, I didn’t even really squat, I could only sort of push my *kitten* back 😂😂😂. It took a lot of frustration, yoga and PT even to make any progress. Someone once told me I’d never squat bc of my extreme mobility issues. I’m just stubborn and have been stretching nightly since 🤣. Most frustrating was everyone would be like no just get lower, not understanding I physically couldn’t 🙄. I think that’s why I hang in the hole too long, I try to make sure I feel that uncomfortable sort of unhinge in my hips. I’d much rather go deeper than needed than too high. I video every squat just to check depth and repeat until I’m satisfied.
Also, you should compete again!! Pick a date and go for it!! I love having the target date to work towards, it always pushes me, also stresses me out but that’s a whole other thread 😂.
How much lower do you feel you need to go here? It looks good to me.
It could be the angle... But is she were in a powerlifting meet, the side judge may say she didn't hit parallel. It'd be REALLY close, almost too close to call... But in that case it sucks so bad to hit a PR and not get those white lights because of one degree.
My coach had me set up a massive medicine ball on top of a bunch of plates where parallel would be, and then I had to squat til my butt touched it. That was the best way I learned how parallel felt... But now I just go as low as my body lets me. 😁jennacole12 wrote: »kinetixtrainer2 wrote: »jennacole12 wrote: »KickassAmazon76 wrote: »jennacole12 wrote: »KickassAmazon76 wrote: »So... Here's a link..

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

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!
I also relate, like usual I’m on the opposite end of that and I’m always a hair too high with depth (like the gif below).

Yea my coach would have passed it, I just think it’s so close that a judge could technically red light it. And I feel like if it’s a clear miss you’d understand the fail but this close would infuriate me.
I appreciate the insight.
I love having real lift discussions with give and take from people who genuinely want to improve, learn or just be their best. It seems to be a rarity in my real life circles so I appreciate you all so much 🖤KickassAmazon76 wrote: »jennacole12 wrote: »kinetixtrainer2 wrote: »KickassAmazon76 wrote: »kinetixtrainer2 wrote: »jennacole12 wrote: »KickassAmazon76 wrote: »jennacole12 wrote: »KickassAmazon76 wrote: »So...

So Sundays are for Strongman training and today almost had me throwing in the towel 😫. I was feeling so defeated after 4 fails.... I threw a temper tantrum, cried for a while ate a donut and then hit the previous fail # 2x and got my farmers carry all the way to goal, which is essentially running with 220 lbs 🤗

@jennacole12
As always, so impressive and motivating.💪🏻 🤗
Also, it's cute how your coach flexes with you everytime like he's lifting the weight too. 😆
Thank you beautiful lady!!! I didn’t even realize that 😂😂 he’s the best, during my big meet when they called my name, for first place female deads, the man started crying 😂. He’s this monster of a man but my biggest cheerleader 🤣.

Haha sorry to bore you 🤗. Just teasing.
Unilateral movements are great for muscle imbalances. My right A/C joint is completely torn in my right shoulder. Has been since 2003. Using unilateral movements helped me keep my right arm movements just as strong as my left.
Lifting with strict form also helps me in my profession.0 -
