Make sure you get a short singlet. The more pasty white leg showing, the better.Sept 15, no wraps.

Check the logs bro.y u no lift
1-2 seconds. Just making sure I don't breathe in or out at the bottom and "sink".How long a pause are you practicing? How many times per week do you pause bench?
Check the logs bro.
USPA right? That should be good depending on the level of control you show over the bar at the bottom. The smoother you bring it down, the sooner you achieve motionless on the chest, and the faster press call.1-2 seconds. Just making sure I don't breathe in or out at the bottom and "sink".
And I've done them twice, once 2 days before a friendly bench contest held and my gym and today.
I figured I might as well get used to them. While driving home I figured 2 weeks of 5x5 followed with the 3rd week of pause benching. What are your thoughts?
Yup and Ill keep that in mind! My negatives are always pretty controlled in my opinion.USPA right? That should be good depending on the level of control you show over the bar at the bottom. The smoother you bring it down, the sooner you achieve motionless on the chest, and the faster press call.

I train pause bench 1x week, and touch n go another day (2x week total benching).Yup and Ill keep that in mind! My negatives are always pretty controlled in my opinion.
And once usually. Until recently I didn't train for strength in particular, transitioning from the bro split!
Got it, slowly I'll increase my frequency (later on after this meet) thanks for the input.I train pause bench 1x week, and touch n go another day (2x week total benching).
For you, I'd either train once a week, or every other week. You have plenty of time though to work on it.
Posting vids will help if you want any critiques.
Set up on a bench with some 2.5 plates propping it up if it's a problem, what I'll do when solo.Got it, slowly I'll increase my frequency (later on after this meet) thanks for the input.
And I'll post one up of each lift within the next couple weeks. I normally workout alone or with 1 person so videos can be tricky since either no one is there or they are busy spotting me.
You mean my phone right? That's a good ideaSet up on a bench with some 2.5 plates propping it up if it's a problem, what I'll do when solo.

I love me some Condense and haven't heard one bad thing about Dpol powder yet.
Will add in towards the end of this T-Blast bottle. I have a tub of Condense I'm using currently that will be empty around the same time as well
Always could use more pumps, at least that's what she told meMore pumps!!!!! Kill it bro
LolAlways could use more pumps, at least that's what she told me
This thread is going to be ~50% that's what she said jokes with the crowd I've reeled in so far haha
Bottom, if it gets going its good. I need to work on thoracic extension honestly. I have been catching my hips starting the lift when I fatiguedDeadlifts, where do you fail the lift if you are to fail?
Then deficits are appropriate. Not a big fan of rack pulls to be honest, and if you're weak at the bottom, I wouldn't bother with them.Bottom, if it gets going its good. I need to work on thoracic extension honestly. I have been catching my hips starting the lift when I fatigued
Just curious as they are new to me, what makes you not care for rack pulls?Then deficits are appropriate. Not a big fan of rack pulls to be honest, and if you're weak at the bottom, I wouldn't bother with them.
Row more frequently, and this will improved thoracic extension strength.

Working on it, that wasn't the work out I wanted to do but I like them for grip strength and setting up hip hinge.Then deficits are appropriate. Not a big fan of rack pulls to be honest, and if you're weak at the bottom, I wouldn't bother with them.

NotedThe starting position does not always carry over to a true deadlift.
I prefer either pulls off blocks as the weight deloads in the same pattern, compared to racks off pins, or a deadlift off the floor overloaded with chains or bands to produce the same effect.
thanks man I'm always adjusting something to my form, now my shoulders don't even hurt!Jealous of your bench #'s. Nice work.
What is a neutral grip, and what is osaat?
I always have some packs in my truck just in case. They are in my top 5Nice workout bro... how did you find animal rage?
Very nice indeed!
Saving this for those late nights or for when I just need a break lolVery nice indeed!
Holy pump Batman!!Saving this for those late nights or for when I just need a break lol
GMS? I thought I read an article saying it was used in food sometimes...(I could be wrong...probably am..)Impressive benching.
You compete USPA right, not USAPL? USAPL testing will get you in trouble with that "High Volume" from the GMS.
Not sure, probably much smaller quantities than we supplement with.GMS? I thought I read an article saying it was used in food sometimes...(I could be wrong...probably am..)

Thanks, I wish everything else was as strong.Impressive benching.

I saw it, not watching bc I dont want to feel the desire to go back to using my suit.Lame
Check out the link in Herder or my thread. Live IPF feed. Some beastly single ply stuff goin on
Yep, same here, USPA offers way more in my area.Thanks, I wish everything else was as strong.
Well, will compete. But ya USPA just because convenient locations
Yup not going to travel that far, just in case I forget something or I am not feeling all fine and dandy.Yep, same here, USPA offers way more in my area.
Meh, BCT ain't that bad.Drank more beer than I should have and smoked a lot of hookah. Tomorrow is gonna be hard on my head and my back workout.
But just for that I am going to incorporate some deficit pulls.
Oh well my oldest friend is going to basic in a couple days. This is pretty hard on me honestly, normally I would keep this in but everytime I think of it I tear up.
