I'm using a belt from now on, not that I don't think raw is good or anything, I just think it'll help me gain
I use a belt any time I'm above 80%
Got mired by a based yoked lifter wearing a Polish shirt w/ winged hussars today. Told me that I make my 315 deddies look easy (I usually lift 350 but taking it a lil easy on my back). Irish peasant genetics
@Tyler0317 *Please get this car off my legs!*
*Sure! Lemme get my chalk and belt.*
(Also, my lifts arenโt impressive either)
@Rogue Respect.
I Dead 275 x3, then my grip gives out and I drop the bar, lol
๐๐ป315 gets me after 3-5. Gotta wrap it up.
Thanks brother
My best is 3 sets of 350 x4.
It's been a week since I tweaked a nerve in my lower back but I'm feeling great atm.
I don't use a belt or straps either but I've been heavily considering investing in some ๐ค
Doing 3 sets of 4 at 350# with no belt or straps.
Bro, that phenomenal!
Thanks man ๐ช๐ป
Hit 585 for 2 reps today on deadlifts after squats! Hardest set of my life
Hell yeah!
Impressive!
So, do I absolutely need a spotter for lifting or no?
No?
If you're just starting out, you should be lifting weight that you are comfortable with.
I recommend a push/pull/legs split.
Sometimes called a brosplit?
A mix of strength training and bodybuilding.
Depends on your goals.
Should I switch off between calisthenics and lifting? What are the advantages and disadvantages of both? Is one "better"?
I do sprints/jogs/stairs, an Ab vidya and a cardio lighter weight kettlebell routine on non-lifting days.
Incorporate calisthenics into each lifting session instead
Or do both each day
One in the morning and one at night
The split session strategy like that is becoming very popular and has been utilized by very successful lifters for a long time
Hit the elusive triple bodyweight deadlift last night at 615lbs
@Nick-NJ Impressive!
Thatโs insane
@Trashboat No ego lifting, bruh.
Like @Rogue said, lift what you can do safely.
there's a line between ego lifting and really pushing yourself I find
Spines are irreplaceable
Went to my dad's house yesterday and got my weights
@Trashboat for beginners, start blasting Tren.
