You can't have mine - for a start you're 2 years too young

Quality - thought I'd go with the most fitting with 'wise guy'

Would love a bit of technique critique.

Got the SL 5x5 squat up to 80kgs now, I'm worried that my form could be way off, doesn't feel uncomfortable to me but I'm no expert. Massive stuggle with the last one, this was my 4th set after warming up with 2x5x60kgs.

Can't tell too much from that angle. All I will say is you are coming down a bit too fast and bouncing off the bottom. Try and be tighter and more controlled. Also you'll want your elbows more under the bar.

I can't see very well, are your knees coming inside the angle of your feet?

Very very nearly got run over on the way to the gym. Provided a decent burst of adrenaline for my first few shoulder press sets

Awesome workout. Starting to get some ridiculous veins popping in my delts during working sets :cool:

I've decided I'm so hench that if I got hit by a car it would just crumple around me.

The car doesn't hit you, you hit the car :cool:

I'm pretty sure if i didn't have reasonably strong legs i would have been hit, i did dart out of the way extremely quickly. Wasn't massively fast but enough to hurt.

They are in line with my feet, but I think my knees are going slightly over my toes.

I'm thinking of doing a few months of cutting to change things up a bit and because I need it...

Am I better off doing 3 sets of 15 or 1x15, 1x12 and 1x10?

I'm going to be doing this for my upper and lower body, so I will be dropping the weights to compensate for this.

Kind regards,

David

Stick with the same weight routine, just tweak the diet and add in 15 mins HIIT 3 times a week.
