You could probably go a little bit lower and maybe keep your neck neutral. But it looked pretty solid to me.
Excuse me hun, but what is your name? Vivian? I woke up next to you naked and, uh, did we, um?

first rep was a little bit shaky.

Second rep was perfect, that was just awesome.

Third rep, shaky as first. Watch that second rep like a thousand times and always do it like that. As osmoses said, maybe go a bit lower.

Looking pretty good.

osmoses : thanks. still working on depth

funkie : good to know that there aren't many major problems in my squat. why was the second rep so good though? i seemed to be more balanced on the way down and fluent on the way up, but i'm not quite sure why the second rep was much better than 1 and 3.

The key to watch for here is bar path. You'll notice that on your first and third reps, tracing the bar path yields kind of a "J" shape, as you tip forward ever so slightly at the bottom of the squat. This J needs to be a straight vertical line, which it is in the second rep. You've probably heard this cue a thousand times before, but I'll repeat it; think about sitting back into a chair to get the desired bar path. This will also allow you to get all the way to parallel, which you're just barely missing.

Please film it again :D

edit: Oh yeah, this morning I did 100 reps of squat again, this time with weights under my heels, and I must say my form was pretty damn good all the way. And afterwards I went upstairs and did 10 chinups for the first time in my life.

Fuck. Yeah.

On the third week of Magnusson-Ortmayer for deadlift. Today I did:
125kgx4x4
140kgx2
157.5kgx2 PR
125kgx10 (8+)

I was having grip issues on the heaviest double though. Do any of you guys who deadlift heavy have tips/exercises to increase grip strength?

Use chalk if you're not already using it, it really makes a world of difference.

Went by a store recommended to me on my way home. Got myself some bitching lifter shoes. Adidas power perfect 2, was between them and a pair that are apparently officially sponsored for the olympics but they were like twice as expensive and I don't think I'm at the level where it'd make a difference.

Can't wait to try them out, they felt great in the store ^^

I love how a single good session at the gym and make your day from 'I should floss babyfaces with barbwire' to 'Even my whiny mother seems to be shitting rainbows today'.

Get a pair of powerlifting Wrist Wraps, and you can get back into training asap unless you broke a bone or something. They are like having a new pair of tendons.


Gotunk could you send me a link to the wrist wraps you are talking about? Thanks man

Thanks I'll try some of those out the next few weeks. I don't have acces to chalk unfortunatly, but getting my grip stronger is gonna help for more stuff so I might as well do some work.
