Notice the guy falling forward. That's this asshole. There's a couple things going on there that's causing this to happen.
A. My weak, fat abs not being able to stabilize my upper body out of the hole
B. I'm inside my own head. As you can tell it begins at the rack when I can't get the bar comfortable on my shoulders. I lose all my tightness in my core and lats arching it off the hooks when I do it two or three times. Plus it just seems like those hooks are a foot deep and stupid.
C. There's a possibility that I am letting my elbows flare out somewhere in this mess.
I'm not going to let it get me down though. I was even a little encouraged on my downward motion and the way my hips were heading backwards. These ques are harder to pick up then you would think. All this said, I still put up the best numbers I have had since starting this program.
Squat - 45x5,45x5,90x5,135x3,185x2,225x5,225x5,225x5
Bench- 45x5,45x5,80x5,110x3,145x2,175x5,175x3,175x5 - I lost the second set on this one due to an asshole coughing all over the place right next to my bench. Some People.
Deads- 135x5,210x3,250x2,285x4
I'll be taking the boy to the Y back home over the weekend and figure I can work out some of these form issues using some of the advice from here. (Lift-Run-Bang) Great read for people who got here because they are bad at squatting. I personally appreciate the passage in the third part of the series that points out if you are squatting 185, you're to be considered a "real weak guy".
I can only appreciate it because it's true.
