THats really good weight!
How to get to 480, Pause reps, Elastic bands added to the weight

 

Hence why a decent trainer wont tell people to go past 90*. Genetics/poor form/lack of training of the supporting muscles prevent most people from going all the way down. When you get there you're using a lot more supporting muscles while stretching the pec in the eccentric motion. To each their own but as a trainer I'm not putting myself on the line and letting someone go past 90*, I don't even do that anymore.

As far as bouncing off the chest look at prison inmates then tell me they are wrong. There's something for everyone you just need to know your limits.

 

thats heavy weight for your weight haha... are you all muscle right now or are you bulking

 

My roommate took Superpump in college which rightfully earned the name superdump. That shit eff'ed his stomach up

Looks like a pretty good deal.

 

if it was a 5lb tub it would at 3.3lbs its pretty standard pricing.

 

A "decent" trainer would make people go past 90*, and separately work mobility and shoulders to do so. Trainers who don't are short changing their clients. Let's get them to never progress and continue to come to us. I hate that mentality. Train them to make them better, healthier, more mobile, and stronger athletes. That's what a "decent" trainer does.

 

Oh ok. I never buy ON so i didnt know.

 

^This, fix the root of the problem instead of masking the condition with bandaid fixes is what a good trainer does. unfortunatly most trainer at big gyms don't have a clue WTF they are talking about.

Just today i caught some trainer telling the dude to squat in running shoes for more arch support, i almost lost my shit but said fuck it and went home.

 

be on the look out when holiday comes, online company always give out big big discounts, last year i got 2 tubs of protein for 40 bucks with free shipping Plus one tube of free random supp(turn out to be BCAA), so i got 3 product for 80 bucks and no shipping.

 

It's definitely hard to bite my tongue sometimes. I'm just watching them jack people up. Let's fix the problems instead of add to them.

 

I'll never squat with shoes again

 

Fucking boss, never had a bloody nose but one time in the gyn during a squat PR i blew a blood vessel in both of my eye and i thought it was pretty badass looking.
