#biggef Member 5263, 3492 posts SQ 260, BP 195, DL 260715.0 kgs @ 130kgs UnEq | Post Edited: 22.01.2018 @ 23:24 PM by John PaulSavage said: It will get shorter at some point but come off? f**k no. Have you ever came across anybody that gets weaker when they grow a beard? I very much like this comment I may use it if that's ok  in fact I tell people it's scientifically proven you are 10% stronger with a beard! On the flip side 15% weaker with a man bun or top knot lol | ||

I use my beard like a slingshot on overhead too, get a good 20% then, pops right off it straight to lockout if hit it right. | ||

Member 2775, 6927 posts | Post Edited: 23.01.2018 @ 00:28 AM by PaulSavage Had a bit of a f**k up session today. Possibly due to my arms getting bigger but still, a bit of a f**k up.Bodyweight = 169.3kg Push press against bands - 122.5-152.5kg (very easy) - 140-170kg x fail (explained below) - 92.5-112.5kg x 2, 2 (attempt at speed work but had no explosion left) https://www.instagram.com/p/BeRT-XmgFD7/ Incline smith - +100kg x 5 - +120kg x 5 w/ slingshot - +80kg x reps Smith seated lockouts - to +120kg x 5 - +140kg x fail (didn't rest enough, gym with shutting) https://www.instagram.com/p/BeRVuDEgHMQ/ Plate pinch hold - 20kg bumpers x 50 something seconds? https://www.instagram.com/p/BeRWZ7YgAN5/ So the reason the 152.5kg was really easy and then I failed the 170kg was because I had to wrestle with my elbow sleeves for 15 minutes between those two sets. Took 3 attempts to finally get them both on and I was completely spent by the time I finally got to do the set. Usually they are fine and I put them on myself without much effort. Will have to get some bigger ones. Becca strict presses - https://www.instagram.com/p/BeRUXx2ADVP/ | ||

Not a problem I've ever had either, arms have always been small compared to the rest of me but maybe they are getting bigger. Will measure them later and see. It is a problem though as can't find elbow sleeves big enough anywhere. For some reason strength shop only do small sizes now. | ||

I may try my xxxl knee sleeves like I wore last week when couldn't find my elbow ones but I think they are the same size. | ||

Member 2775, 6927 posts | Post Edited: 30.01.2018 @ 00:49 AM by PaulSavage Axle press against bands- to 130kg total x 2 strict - to 146kg total x 5 push press (s**t balance, not the greatest) - 121kg total x 5 strict Smith seated lockouts - to +160kg x 5 (took my grip bit too wide) Foot raises (for tibialis) - 3 x reps https://www.instagram.com/p/BejPB6qAIhq/ Was feeling drained so kept it just to shoulder presses. Will do more tomorrow. The 4xl sleeves didn't fit so had to go sleeveless. Will try sbd's I bought for Becca. Got new collars that are much tighter, made the axle a solid setup, definitely made it more difficult to balance. | ||
