    Thanks @nakedraygun Form is definitely one thing that this 20 rep program has helped with. There are enough reps there to really find your groove. Hoping the form sticks through as the weights keep going up.

    Still jealous of that bench LOL I'm still stuck at a 1RM of between 235-240 :disappointed:
    I found that as well. After about two weeks squatting 3x week my groove was in a whole new orbit of awesome. On light days I would squat 3x10 at 50% and on heavy days I'd squat another 50% 5x10 after my strength work -- I'd then add 10 pounds a week.

    I'm still regaining my strength in my bench. I half-heartedly tested it this weekend and did okay with 285x1, but failed on a 300, but I weigh 205 lbs, so my bench really isn't that impressive by any measure at that bodyweight.

    This was my meet last weekend. Deadlift second attempt at 140kg. Sadly the third at 147.5 barely left the floor. Last summer I hit 145 at a similar body weight so am a bit disappointed but have been struggling with hip issues.

    Sorry to hear about your hip issues, but your second attempt was a very nice pull.

    Really happy with this one.

    My squat 1rm last meet was 451. This is a single at 430 in training but the bar speed here tells me I've got a decent amount of room in the tank. This is probably the best I've looked at this high of a %rm.

    That was smooth as butter dude.

    Not quite heavy or smooth as @sidesteel and at much higher bodyweight I knocked these out a few days ago.

    Hit a new platform pr yesterday. 82.5kg/181.5lb on my third, and good enough for silver at the IPF Classic bench worlds.

    Squats have been a general weakness of mine, but I am finally making progress with them!! At my meet last week, I couldn't hit full depth on my 3rd attempt which was only 170lbs. Yesterday, I hit depth at that weight and then some!! First I hit 175lbs for an easy PR, but that wasn't enough!! I then hit 180lbs, which was a bit more of a struggle--I went a bit forward-- but I was able to get it down to full depth and stand it up. YAY PRs!!!

    @nakedraygun - I cut it out of the video but the expression on my face when I saw the white lights was priceless. And when the Brits told me I had gotten silver, there were more than a few tears of joy!

    @maranarasauce93 - I train with self handoffs all the time, although I normally take handoffs in comp. after watching the spotters and loaders all week, I knew that I would hate the liftoff, so I just did it myself.
