This OP is shit when we have a website with all this shit on it
Or a pastebin with all this shit on it

All this does is clog my screen

Home sweet home

OP is clogged a bit though

OP has always been clogged.

Your summerfag is showing again

Isley why do you wear a Blackhawks shirt?

AYY POWERLIFTS ARRIVED
(and they look like bowling shoes, maybe white/blue wasn't a great choice)

My gym closed today, without any notice.

Considering dropping the rows meme for weighted Chins today desu

>someone saved the OP with my 665 edit

>not buying the black/white powerlifts
lad..

I actually wanted that or the red/white/black one, but I'm a third worlder and the white/blue was at least 10 burgers cheaper (as compared to the all black version, mind).

Sabre?

gonna dump a couple webms. Deal with it

Nice fight lad, even if you didn't get it.

Thanks la

That's my little pony lad

Just make sure to drop plenty of very unsubtle racist remarks

I like that character, he is somewhat smart, isnt it?

Sean's afraid of spiders lads

1/3

2/3

Who /highfreq/ here? Highbar daily max is my old comp PR, bench feels good and is slowly creeping up, deadlift well... remains to be seen.

>your wilks is barely 100 points higher

2 of them are black

3/3

Tell them you think they're a credit to their people.

Ayyyy

Good luck breh

Easiest way to get rid of spiders is to regularly clean out their webs. Pesticides aren't very effective against them in general, a broom in your ceiling corner is. No webs, they don't eat, they die or move on.

>wanting to get rid of spiders
Enjoy mosquitoes and shit.

I leave them be. Just throwing it out there for the OCD types.

Holy fuck so close

>not keeping a few spiderbro to clean up the foreign insect trash trying to infest your house

They're like miniature 8 legged border patrol

Alex, when did you want to go lift? I was planning on going around 7-7:30 or so.

BUILD WEB

Nice

>tfw cats kill all the spiderbros in the house

Well at least they also kill the other insects.

>cat
>not getting a dog bro

Don't even fucking talk to me anymore, SERIOUSLY

Fucking wiped lads, good thing that was my last workout till Tuesday. SLDL's got me like weewww lad

Deads weren't particularly easy today lads. Wish I did chin ups instead of rows all along

Doesnt hellboy have a thing for cats?

I spend too much time out of home to have a dog.
Cats can handle their own shit and don't get depressed if they spend the day alone.

Also, BUSTED

>tfw watching Chad Friendly Smith and Max Comfy chat about squats

I love cats. My Maine coon is amazing

Ed Coan deadlifted with a mid-range stance, just outside the arms.
Are you on the short side?

lol those things are fucking ridiculous animals.

Has anyone tried a kind of "narrow sumo"? Yesterday i tried it for fun as a deadlift variation. I never pulled sumo ever. My conv. max is about 200 kg and with this narrow sumo stance i ripped 140 for an easy 12 rep,i was pretty shocked. It felt pretty comfy and the ROM was not retarded short like with a wide stance sumo. So anyone has any experience with this?

Im 179 cm. And yes, the form was similar to Coans.

Meicoomon?

Shit, man, I always forgot that Piana used to be good-looking. Makes me sad.

>tfw you bench goes from this

*forget

>she will never experience the pure love and companionship a dog bro can give.

And desu, I think user IS EXAGGERATING

Spiders are your friends senpai...

>to this
forgot trip, whoops

is it stupid if i purchase a cat solely to track and kill the spider in my house

Sweet Christmas lads, it floors me to see the difference even between you DYEL genetic failures and the people who are new to Veeky Forums.

Pop into QTDDTOT or Routine Help General, you see the craziest stuff.
"how's this for a beginner? it's basically SS but I took out the squats because they're bad for my knees lol.
A:
>bench press 3x5
>curls 4x20
>incline bench 3x8
>decline bench 5x10
>cable flies 3x10
>deadlifts 5x7

>OHP 3x6
>behind the neck press 5x10
>curls 4x20
>preacher curls 5x5
>bench press 7x7 (i hear you need more volume to make bench progress)"

You can't even tell them JUST DO SS because then they're like "but Veeky Forums said SS was a meme :/"

youtube.com/watch?v=jdj8DQ9ZL6Q

It is borderline retarded

why did you even go for the last rep you stupid mother fucker

your form is so shit

all loose and bouncy

My verdict:

KYS

>joe is more successful than you in all aspects of life except Veeky Forums
Where did everything go so wrong?

THERE IS A SEVEN LEGGED SPIDER IN MY FUCKING BEDROOM AND I CANT FIND IT
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

The fuzziest and craziest cat I've ever dealt with

I didn't want to give up like a little bitch.
>Loose
>Bouncy
If leg drive is bouncy then sure.

This video was the biggest timewaste of my entire life. Why the fucking hell does this guy film as he buys all kind of everyday shit? Is this for real? I just wanted to find out why he needs a damn surgery at such a young age but i guess because he is a massive faggot and his horse dildo bulged his disks.

Butt Leaving Bench With Every Rep/10

Yes, you can get one for free or very cheap at a local shelter.

Yea man, he probobly went through a shit ton of surgery and botox since he's so obsessed with his appearance that he looks really strange now

Least he accomplished his goal of leaving humanity behind

delete this

>he doesn't do paused-bench
Wanna know how I can tell that barely anyone in here actually lifts?

>how can you
Primarily because your technique is dogshit, tbH fami.

No you literally have no tightness whatsoever
You also did 0 reps since not a single was paused

And you don't know what leg drive is

So please shut the fuck up and kill yourself

I'm mirin' at guys like Eddie Hall and Thor Bjornson but some people I cannot take seriously.

>watching "powerlifting" vids on Facebook
>someone bragging about a PR
>back arched like a bridge
>some ridiculous leotard thing
>wrist wraps?
>elbow wraps
>spotter is holding the bar the entire time
>grip wider than a motorway
>celebrate like they actually did something

I just can't.

I think everybody here trains some/most/all of their bench paused.

Man, this looks as terrible as it can get.
What a fat retard.
Btw keep practicing and it will be good.

4-5 mins in the car he talks about his back
After he talks with Gibbs and Gibbs shows the new SBD belt

>leg drive

After incorporating it benching feels so much better. Problem for me is getting my feet in a comfy position since a lot of spots hurt because of my shit mobility.

I may record some light spoto today to see if I can improve my form, which I most definetly can.

Nice, dude.

I do one second pauses. Shit's hard yo.

what a shit fucking get retard

lol I wondered how some guy made such decent progress on SS
its because his form is completely illegal you dogturd shit
every rep to competition standard or GTFO

Only on the fourth and fifth reps m8

>Pausing on an amrap

>Tfw retarded my way up on bench
>Tfw bench felt like trash
I promise it normally looks better than that piece of shit

It felt worse than it looked m8. So much worse.

...

>every rep to competition standard or GTFO
>mfw I cut my squats high sometimes at the ends of sets

Good video but I'd like to add that the bottom position isn't just about deltoid strength.
It's where your chest is the strongest for shoulder flexion (the horizontal displacement of the bar in the bench press), as the shoulder is hyperextended at the bottom, which makes the inferior fibres of the chest have the opposite of their normal function (very strong shoulder flexors instead of shoulder extensors). This is why dips are so good for the chest, even though it's mostly shoulder flexion and not transverse flexion - all of the flexion is done from hyperextension to anatomical position, so the lower and middle fibres of the pec major are in a very strong position to flex the shoulder - in a stronger position than the anterior deltoids, even.

This is also why pressing "back and then up" helps you bench a lot more weight - because you're taking more advantage of the chest ability to contribute to shoulder flexion at the bottom of the lift.

So even at the bottom of the lift, chest still is the most important dealer when it comes to the shoulder joint movement in the bench press.

Pic relates shows moment arm for shoulder flexion, but unfortunately does not include the moment arms when the shoulder is under hyperextension - only from the anatomical position onwards. Again, the lower fibres of the pec major have the opposite function under hyperextension, they perform flexion instead of extension. Even then, you can see that the middle and upper fibres of the pec major have a very decent moment arm for flexion even after the anatomical position (upper pec major has the higher peak moment arm, even). And this isn't even taking the the size of the pec major when compared to the anterior deltoids in consideration.

Another important detail to note in pic related is how the middle fibres of the chest also help with flexion even when not under hyperextension, and how the anterior delts moment arm is weaker at lower angles (even weaker at hyperextension).

I hope you still see my point. This video should have been max 4 min long WITH rhe training footage!
Wasted time and wasted get.

I said touch and go m8. Never claimed it was paused after 225.

I loved how you stopped arguing with me that your form is shot after five other people told you its shit

You're literally worse than benchbeta when it comes to acting like a child

You're a man
