Some snide comments from a couple of guys in the gym today regarding my bench.

"Must be easy only doing 1 rep"

"I don't do flat bench, only reason people do it is for their ego"

same guy then says

"I only do decline bench, flat bench works the delts too much..."

:rolleyes:

Anyway, damn pleased with the 155! Need to figure out where to take my bench next though.

Should have turned around and just told them to lift it then....

They were just being crafty with the comments. Not outright having digs but comments that appeared general but were obviously aimed at me. I find it funny tbh, I must be doing something to annoy the guys twice my size

fuel to lift bigger!

Nice PB there LiE.

Never mind the betas, especially when bench is just the assistance for your arm workouts

That's hilarious

They be jelly. Especially with their twig legs.

Fantastic benching LiE :cool:

Thanks guys

I'm thinking of structuring my squats in a 531 fashion tonight, and going for an all out top set.

LiE · 20 Nov 2012 at 19:07

Legs. Ruined.

Squats
72.5x5
90x5
107.5x3
135x5
152.5x3 - flew up
170x6 - that's more like it! Must be some kind of PB.

Deficit Split Squats
35x10 x3

RDL
80x10
110x8 - easy
130x6 - was blasting these out but my grip died.

Goblet Squats
35x10 x3

mrthingyx · 20 Nov 2012 at 19:33

For the split squats, is that 35kg in each hand? :eek:

King Damager · 20 Nov 2012 at 19:44

If so, I might just end my life now....

Delvis · 20 Nov 2012 at 20:02

Going by your sig, that is a PB no?

Nice work regardless!

LiE · 20 Nov 2012 at 20:04

haha no that's combined, 17.5kg in each hand.

My 1RM is 200 on squat, but for 5+ reps I haven't done more than 170.

Delvis · 20 Nov 2012 at 20:15

Ah okay, my bad.

Still, cracking effort

EDIT: I managed to get up to the 15's for split squat, absolute murder mind

icecold · 20 Nov 2012 at 20:34

Nice squatting, that's a lot better than recent sessions is it not?

I'm doing split squats tomorrow

LiE · 20 Nov 2012 at 20:35

Yea last week I managed 160x5 and 170x3 (when I wanted 5). So it's going in the right direction. Having the belt 1 notch up is interesting, a new level of tightness has been unlocked!

Deception · 20 Nov 2012 at 20:35

I can always guarantee 2-3 days of DOMS after doing Split Squats. It does make the week more interesting.

icecold · 20 Nov 2012 at 20:42

Well I'm predicting a full week of DOMS, I'm still suffering from the comp on sunday!

I'm on my tightest notches on my belt as of sunday too, brutally tight!

LiE · 20 Nov 2012 at 23:35

Ice I'm getting some cold feeling/aches in my knees. I think it may be the split squats.

Djdom56 · 21 Nov 2012 at 00:25

See if brutalising your quads and hips flexors with any form of sort tissue helps. I get a similar sounding feeling after a lot of quad dominant work.
