Your rows are pretty strong, bud. What's your bench maxing out at these days?

 

[AngryMuscles]

i'm pretty weak at benching bro.

177 is my max

have weak triceps...but currently will be hitting them after my week off. Any advice on tricep stength?

ANGRY have you tried narrow grip bench or rev bench ? When you do bench so you have a spotter?

 

[AngryMuscles]

I've tried them..but I can't get my nmbers high on those rev bench and narrow grip bench..always feel weak after doing sets of bench. I don't always have a spotter...I don't want to ask random people to do it..since I know they'll practically pull it up before I even know what the fuck is going on x.x

Tell your spotter what you want - to help you when you say help and not to just pull it up. I've had a few spotters in the past just pull the damn bar up when I was still on my way up pushing.

I agree with mulli on this one, throw in closegrip bench or reverse and your tris will get huge. It doesn't matter if you can't put up big weight on it, as long as you grow, that's all that matters.

 

[AngryMuscles]

understood. thanks!

 

[irishdave]

Angry, I am certainly no bench expert but since I started training hard over the last few weeks again, I found that heavy, heavy dips and military press were helping my bench no end. Busting my ass on dips after my benching and doing some mili press on another day works for me. I am also of the belief that heavy DB benching works for me too but my current gym doesn't have heavy enough DBs. Can't wait to get back down to my old gym.

 

[AngryMuscles]

dips, no matter how good they are..are not good for my shoulders

thanks for the advice.

 

[mister69]

[AngryMuscles]

admittedly..I didn't do any cardios.....goddamit. work got in the way and feeling lazy too x.x

LEGS

FRONT SQUAT
155x3(using shoulder pressing grip..fucked my wrists actually)
177x3(bars over shoulders with arms crossed..hurts my delts)

note:felt strong and easy..but balancing and holding the bar bothers me a bit both ways...help! having the bar across my shoulders is a lil new thing to get used too since I can't quite see my footing stance and all x.x

SQUAT
155x10
177x10

note:could have gotten up with more poundage and reps...but sudden stomachache fucked me up.....not good.

HACK SQUAT(old school)
177x5-5
221x3-2

felt great..but somehow couldn't get my form right. it felt awkward...help!

LEG PRESS
330x5

overall: felt really good coming back to gym. legs are worked, abs are hardened and back is not fried, which is an oh so good thing

that is all

 

[irishdave]
