  1. Strained tricep during deadlift?

  2. Ground distance for deadlift.

    So here is the problem. I as of yesterday, could bench 215 from a dead stop position off my chest. VERY easily. I did 4 sets of only 3 reps and left it alone. I space those sets out by 2 hours. All went good. Now today I can't even do 205. What the hell is it? I don't feel sore or fatigue and I...
  7. Bench pressing from the chest.

    So I have been setting up my presses by starting the bar on top of my chest instead of unracking and just wanted to know if there is any value to be gained from this. If your wondering I set books under my back to raise me to the bar. Thanks.
