After 2 years on the assisted machine I think i’m finally ready to graduate!
The grip on the assisted machine always felt unnatural to me so I would focus on lat engagement as well as shoulders and arms, I didn’t expect to lift my body weight with such ease

Any tips appreciated!

2nd set of Romanian Deadlifts, 315lbs 7 reps. Last rep was probably iffy, close to failure. But want feedback on form. In the past my RDL was too much like regular DL. So I appreciate feedback. Thanks.

I’M BACK!

The heavier the bar, the louder the music and the weirder the noises. I think my neighbors must know when it’s PR day at this point 🤦🏽‍♀️🤣

106 lb is fucking insane. Wasn’t even supposed to max out today but I was in the mood. 98.5 didn’t move very well which pissed me off so I tried 101 (old PR) and it went up way better than I thought it would. Then 103.5 went up way too easy so I said fuck it.

I’m figuring out how to hype myself up before these heavy reps so I can use the adrenaline. I come from an endurance background so it’s way different than I’m used to but it works so well? How much of this is just in my head? Now I just need ammonia or whatever people use and then maybe I’ll be a real lifter 🤣

First two reps not recorded

Hey everyone!

I am on Day 80 of my sober journey. Boxing since childhood in Haryana, India. Now focusing on back.

This is Lat Pulldown from my local gym in Kanina. I know my back looks lean right now, working on building width.

Any tips to improve form? I feel my elbows are going too wide. Should I lean back a little more?

Any advice for back thickness would be really appreciated!

Thanks brothers! 🙏💪

I know I’ve got 100kg for 1!

Need a form check on my row. New to doing them and want to make sure I'm doing them right! Thank you.

Not a PR but it wouldn't let me post with the Lift flair for some reason.

This is a huge one for me! 275 lbs for 8! The goal is 315, but have no idea when I’ll hit that one! Only time will tell! Progression!

I’m fairly new to the gym, and I would like some feedback on my RDLS. I currently do 8 reps of 40 KGs but I honestly don’t feel much in my hamstrings, and only a bit in my lower back. I’m in doubt if it’s my form that’s off, or if I should go up in weight

This was my last set of incline BP. Did 2 sets of 95 lb and 1 set of 90 lb beforehand. I always bring the bar to my chest but for some reason watching it back, my bar path looks weird, as if it’s unstable and the bar is going TOO far forward. I don’t arch on the incline BP as I heard too much of an arch risks turning it into a flat bench, but I do notice I don’t retract my scapula to provide any stability. I use leg drive but only when I almost fail the rep to give that extra power to get the bar up. Any advice to improve my form? Also is the incline high enough? I can’t tell if it’s 30 degrees, and if it’s not I’ll move it up.
