 I am a bench-only guy Member 3, 10034 posts SQ 185, BP 175, DL 235595.0 kgs @ 140kgs UnEq Administrator | Deadlift 60x5 60x5 100x3 140x2 160x2 140x3 120x5 Working on holding the bar like a normal person, rather than in my fingers as I tend to. Then cable curls and lateral raises. | ||

I am a bench-only guy Member 3, 10034 posts SQ 185, BP 175, DL 235595.0 kgs @ 140kgs UnEq Administrator | Bench, no wraps or handoff 20x20 60x8 90x5 110x2 130x2 145x2 155x2 140x5 130x8 120x12 100x20 Very pleasantly surprised. The 140s were too easy to stop at three and the rest followed suit. Pulldowns. | ||

I am a bench-only guy Member 3, 10034 posts SQ 185, BP 175, DL 235595.0 kgs @ 140kgs UnEq Administrator | Deadlift 70x5x2 100x3 140x2 150x2 160x5 Dunno when I last did THAT. I don't have a 5s PB logged, so it might even be a lifetime best, ridiculously. Cable curls, lateral raises. | ||

Your index fingers must be on or inside the rings, but they can be as far inside as you like. Your thumbs must be around the bar, and (other common problems relative to other feds) your feet must be flat on the ground throughout, and your head ditto on the bench.No comps recently. I've sworn off them until I'm sub 120, which is not looking like being any time soon frankly. | ||

I am a bench-only guy Member 3, 10034 posts SQ 185, BP 175, DL 235595.0 kgs @ 140kgs UnEq Administrator | Thanks, Chris. Appreciated, genuinely. Mr Boar, we didn't this year or last, but we did run a push-pull. You can bench-only at most of our meets, though. | ||

I am a bench-only guy Member 3, 10034 posts SQ 185, BP 175, DL 235595.0 kgs @ 140kgs UnEq Administrator | Later start than I'd have liked, but feeling good. Bench, no hand-offs or wraps. 20x20 70x8 90x3 110x2 130x2 150x2* 150 160x1+f** 150x3 140x5 130x8 120x7*** * taking this off was incredibly hard, and it was here I realised some dwarf had adjusted the rack on the bench to rock bottom so I was doing a dead stop sticking point rep you get it out. Fixed, then did a single to check. ** would have had this without the comedy earlier, but this and every set following was very, very hard. *** on my own in the club by now and the tank just ran empty. 8 pm, time for feeding. Not terrible, but not very pleasing. Fin. | ||
