Was a grind but got it in the end

315 x 10 post of a progressive overload set 225 x 12, 315 x 10, 375 x 8

BW 75kg.

Hit the safety bars (the jigs for the dip bars) on the first rep so had to take a small step to the right.
Kept focus. Last rep was a grind.

So i noticed my elbows flaring out it's time to lower the weight and focus on my form before i blow my shoulders out...... freakin sucks!!!! I was happy i got 2 until i looked at the vid....oh btw I'm gonna be 50 in 3wks not to shabby

My old account got hacked and then banned and Reddit support isn’t a whole lot of help, so posting from a new account.

I had set a goal of benching 500lb by the end of this year, ended up hitting it at the beginning of March. This successful lift was preceded by a failed attempt 7 minutes earlier and 4 failed attempts the week prior, so this attempt was just pure spite and grit that helped me get it.

After a 2 year drought, I hit back to back PRs! Not planned, not fueled, just back to having fun in the gym and 525 and 545 just showed up when I switched programs to something with heavy singles.

Might try a jump to 6 plates next week if the body keeps feeling good.

405x1 and 365x2

Did 3x6@430lbs, been working on mobility a lot more this past cycle and this is the best my 430 has moved!!

Probably had at least 1-2 more but took my win and walked away

250 single (175 Body weight). Refer to my previous video where my ass came wayyy up on my 275 triples. I know it’s not perfect, but progress is being made 💪🏻

Thoughts?

Working on controlling the weight.
