Yes, that's the last PB I'll be doing for a month or two, now I need to get my form better at 170 and higher.

Specially at 180 and higher my form is just terrible :mad:

Bodyweight 68kg
Benchpress 90kg, Dumbbell Press 40kg x3
Squat 150x3 on Smiths Machine
Deadlift 190kg

All Raw, not straps, belts or wraps.

Added you to the list - well done! :) :cool:
 
It comes with time. I couldn't do 200kg for ages without straps, and constantly training without I broke that barrier. Same with other deadlifts, always mixed grip until it got better then double overhand grip wasn't a problem - kept doing it until I my grip started to fail, then dropped the weight, until failure, dropped weight etc... :) I haven't got the world's biggest forearms, but I do have very strong hands and fingers. :) Patience is the key!

Yes I agree, however i've seen it happen with my gym partner and he has very very good determination and will power, although it is more of a motivator to improve, so its not a bad thing if you know how to look at it. It may be harder but it doesnt mean you cant improve, it just takes more time.

Time, and pushing plateaus, some of the hardest things to do, but entirely feasible. :)
 
Did a very ugly 235kg deadlift today - shame I didn't get it on video, but it came up, it wasn't pretty. First time I've done heavy deads since starting AGVT though so quite happy about that!

Do I get to grant myself the extra 5kg? :D SPW was a witness to it - but he may be biased maybe :p
 
Nice one george! :) I haven't got any of your other stats or lifts - wanna give them so I can add you to the board?

Shakey is fine - if the bar made it up and you didn't injure yourself then that's all you can ask! ;)
 
Indeed. It's taken me several years to get where I am, and I'm sure the same can be said for others - you develop, and it takes time and effort. :) Don't see why the football season would impair your ability to train legs though!

Progress is progress, even if you only add 10kg to every lift in a year you're still improving. :)
 
We can add it as a separate league table within this thread - no issues there. I dont' think it's fair adding it as part of the "big 3" - certainly, as an additional would be good though.

I've added the scores to the OP - let us know your stats! :)

Monster - I'll update your totals soon.
